Died. Eugene Leonard Burdick, 46, bestselling novelist and University of California political science professor, a former Rhodes scholar who methodically ground out Cassandra-like tales of political science fiction (The Ugly American and its forthcoming sequel, Sarkhan, both written with William J. Lederer; Fail-Safe, written with Harvey Wheeler; and The 480); of a heart attack while playing tennis; in San Diego...
...President, the person next in line to succeed the President. The bill also makes it a federal crime to kidnap, assault and conspire to murder, abduct or injure any of these officials. The Warren Commission urged such legislation in its report on the assassination of President Kennedy. If Lee Harvey Oswald had lived, he could only have been tried under state law in Texas.

His home, job, wife and children are all lovely in their way, but Harvey (Eugene Troobnick) detests taking out the garbage-for him the symbol of drab conformity. One day he carries a lissome blonde (Patricia Harty) from a burning brownstone. "I'm Harvey," he says hoarsely. "I'm Lois," she whispers, stirring in his arms. They...
...Harvey's creator is 33-year-old Ernest Pintoff, a gifted animator who put outsize satirical bite into such prizewinning cartoon shorts as The Interview and The Critic. In his first full-length feature in color, Pintoff has harnessed live actors to a dead horse. Harvey Middleman exudes a bogus air of originality, but is seldom funny enough to make its simplicity seem unpretentious...
