...Judge Claude Clayton issued a restraining order warning Grenada officials to protect the Negro children or face federal contempt charges.

Holy propaganda! No sooner had TV's Batman and Robin resumed their camp crusading for another season than the Soviet humor magazine Krokodil published a humorless tirade calling them "idealized representatives of the FBI."

...critics' charges is that any evidence-tampering of the sort they suspect would have required a conspiratorial web so vast and complex as to be unbelievable. A subversive plot to conceal significant information would almost certainly have had to include the commission and its staff, several FBI agents and Secret Service men, the hospital doctors and nurses in Dallas, some Dallas policemen, the autopsy surgeons, the lab men who developed the X rays and photos and, of course, the Kennedy family...
