Already Ensconced. The book-originally titled Death of Lancer in reference to Jack Kennedy's Secret Service code name-paints, in fact, an almost unrelieved portrait of Johnson as an unfeeling and boorish man.

...Sights. Its '63s should indeed tide Chrysler over. The new IMPERIAL has been improved by a bolder grille and the elimination of its protruding "gunsight" taillights. The NEW YORKER has a clean and handsome new rear end, will offer luxury lovers optional bucket seats. Replacing the Dodge Lancer (which has been dropped) as the smallest Dodge is a new, intermediate-sized DART that has perky styling and peppy performance.
