...John F. Kennedy Jr. who stole the show. Even before his mother arrived, John delighted curious airport spectators by mischievously snatching a Secret Service man's hat and pulling it ludicrously down over his own ears.

Back in Washington after three months on Cape Cod, Jacqueline Kennedy stayed around long enough to greet Haile Selassie and to chat with him-in French-at a private White House tea later in the day. Then, taking leave of the Emperor with an appreciative "Je suis comblee" (I am overcome), she was off again-this time for a 15-day, "strictly private" holiday in Greece...
