...Power Play. She is, says one New Frontiersman, "a truly amazing woman, one of the rare hostesses who know how to combine fun with the power play." At 46, her skin has been lightly bronzed by the sun of Bar Harbor summers and Palm Beach winters. She is 5 ft. 8 in., scarcely an inch shorter than her husband. Her hair, rinsed a soft honey blonde, frames an angular face with high cheekbones. Long, curling lashes fringe blue eyes with just a touch of green in them. Her mouth is wide-too wide-but when she smiles or contorts...
...psychedelic drug scandal has come one gone without shaking the faith of a small but dedicated segment of the community in plain old marijuana. Cambridge does not have a drug problem. It does, however, harbor a very small sub-culture that regards cannabis as little less than a necessity. These people are not addicts, because marijuana, or "pot" as it is better known by devotees and would-be hipsters ("weed," "grass" and less printable names are also used), does not cause addiction.

Blood on the Wall. Much of Connally's bluster was for show, and rarely was he deeply, genuinely angry. One such occasion was on Pearl Harbor day.

The affair threatened to build up into an East-West confrontation, as Cuba's Fidel Castro and Egypt's Gamal Abdel Nasser rushed aid to Algeria's Socialist Strongman Ahmed ben Bella. Unloaded at night from a pair of Cuban freighters in the Algerian harbor of Oran were at least four crated MIG jet fighters, 800 tons of ammunition, three field radio stations and more than enough Soviet-made weapons-including tanks, field guns, antiaircraft guns-to arm an armored regiment. Cuban soldiers accompanied the hardware. Neighborly Nasser also sent a pair of ships loaded...
Early in the week, after a round of speechmaking in New England, the President had sandwiched in a visit to his father's Cape Cod home, where he cruised near Hyannis Harbor with Joe and Cousin Ann Gargan aboard Joe's 52-ft. yacht Marlin. Later old Joe, who rails at the handicaps of the partial paralysis and loss of speech he still suffers as a result of his stroke nearly two years ago, was off to Chicago. There he had a therapy treatment for his useless arm and leg at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago and took...
