Barbara Anne was escorted by her brother David's Amherst roommate, Don Stolper, and David himself was there with Fiancée Julie Nixon, who had been last year's Queen. It was a bit too much for Barbara Anne, and she fainted away during the opening presentations. "I'm so embarrassed," she murmured when she came to, then gamely returned to her place on the dais...

The illegitimate son of a seamstress, Janssen spent his adolescence in an SS training academy, became an alcoholic by the age of 22, ran a liquor parlor hard by Hamburg's reeking Reeperbahn, served seven months in jail in 1951-52 for stabbing his fiancée in the abdomen in a fit of jealous rage...
