Senator Edward Kennedy shuttled between Hyannisport Mass., where he comforted his aged parents, and Hickory Hill, where, as the new head of the family, he had to sort out the details of where some of his brother's children will attend school next year and make other domestic arrangements.

Now the move will be delayed for at least a week...

After a greeting from Jackie and a lively chat with Joe, Frank...

"You never know you're out until you get in," said one visitor. Socially, the Cape's "Big Three" clubs are at Hyannisport, Wianno and Oyster Harbors. Not only do they hold their status because of the social standing of members, but also because they command most of the best facilities?golf courses, tennis courts, docks, private beaches and clubhouses. (Oyster Harbors' members include Paul Mellon and A. Felix du Pont Jr.) This...
