...effective orator and a eupeptic campaigner. Brooke is as much at home striding in white tie and tails down the aisle at a performance of the Boston Opera (of which he is president) as he is scampering down a campaign parade route, shouting "Hey! Hey! Hey! Hello there!" He is at ease at dinner with Vice President Humphrey, Walter Lippmann and Mrs. Christian Herter, and just as comfortable with Negro friends eating "soul food," a Porgy orgy consisting of pig's feet, ham, fried fish, cornbread and greens?to which Brooke sometimes adds champagne. He was such an energetic salesman...
...Ginger Rogers ready for the museum? Well-yes and no. At 55, she is still a star, hoofing and puffing her way through Hello, Dolly! on Broadway at well over $3,000 a week. On the other hand, she has made more films than Cary Grant and has been a star for almost four decades. So it seemed appropriate last week when Manhattan's Gallery of Modern Art awarded her a "Tribute"-a film festival of her finest hour-and-a-halfs-even though such honors are usually reserved for the likes of Garbo, Chaplin or yesterday...
...except for those public appearances demanded by duty and protocol, Johnson has been almost invisible behind the gates of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Only the sharp eyes of a visitor told them, on another occasion, that Mike Mansfield...
When the Johnsons brought forth a red-frosted, three-tiered cake to commemorate the fourth season of Hello, Dolly!. Channing paraphrased a line from the show. "I'm deeply grateful to the Great Society," she exclaimed, "because you know exactly how to spread it around!" At another point, L.B.J. brought Everett Dirksen over for an introduction, and Carol bubbled: "I'm so glad to meet you. People keep saying we sound alike...
Lance Corporal Walter Lopata made medical history last week when he sat up in his Boston hospital bed and said,"Hello-how are you?" He probably could have said more, but the doctors wouldn't let him try, lest he damage the delicate needlework in his throat. For Lopata had no larynx or vocal cords. These were removed in October after they had been torn to shreds by fragments from a Viet Cong grenade. What he had was a reconstructed throat, the first of its kind in the U.S. and probably in the world...
