...cold campaign trail and into a warm New York reception stepped dissident Democratic candidate Senator Eugene McCarthy, 51. The Minnesotan, who had spent the week slogging through wintry New Hampshire, found a more congenial welcome at the Manhattan town house of Socialite Gloria Vanderbilt Cooper. About 200 friendly writers, artists and jet-setters crowded around to hear him proclaim that "it is necessary now to admit to a kind of complete failure in Viet Nam." Poet Robert Lowell responded on the spot by announcing that he has formed a brand-new National Committee of Arts and Letters for McCarthy...

Paul's eldest son, executive vice president and crown prince of the Getty Oil empire; by Gloria Gordon Getty, 37; on grounds that he was "aloof, cold, indifferent and insulting"; after 16 years of marriage, three children; in Los Angeles. Gloria gets their Los Angeles estate plus $66,000 yearly alimony and child support...
With her son leading the way, Mrs. Gloria Goodman ran across the back yard, down a steep embankment to the edge of a small stream where the boys had been playing. Kenneth was nowhere in sight. But two snarling German shepherds and a stray boxer were. The dogs lunged. Mrs. Goodman kept them at bay with a rake, and Gene scrambled onto the limb of a fallen tree to escape their fanged jaws. "Don't let the dogs get me," he pleaded...
