...bill for a historic memorial in Texas in which the $115,000 appropriation did not even cover the cost of the land-Gross declares loudly: No! With nonpartisan passion, Gross crusades against spending. When Kennedy was inaugurated, Gross protested that an Army chauffeur was driving Frank Sinatra and Peter Lawford around Washington...
Death of the Clan. At 46, Sinatra is more alone now than since the days before his From Here to Eternity success made him a late-blooming perennial. Of the Clan, only Dean Martin and Mike Romanoff remain; Peter Lawford (whom Sinatra now snubs) is in a dark sulk, Sammy Davis is a family man. In his new flair for long talks with newsmen, he has conceded that only a few years remain for him as a performer...
...skiers will fly to Europe this season. U.S. resorts have no time or need to worry about European competition. This week New England alone braced for 2,000,000 skiers. Booked into The Lodge, at Smuggler's Notch in Stowe, were three Kennedy sisters: Pat Lawford, Jean Smith (with husband), and Eunice Shriver-Teddy Kennedy is expected next week.

Such expressions as are evident reflect the sudsy affability of a pipe fitters' picnic (Hey, get a load...
...help him relax after hours. Bobby is still Kennedy's right-hand man. Sargent Shriver Jr.-Eunice Kennedy's husband-is head of the Peace Corps. Stephen Smith -Jean Kennedy's husband-is special assistant to the head of the White House "Crisis Center." Actor Peter Lawford-Pat Kennedy's husband-helped pay off Democratic debts by co-producing an inaugural extravaganza, still shows up at Kennedy conclaves, sometimes with the Hollywood Rat Pack in tow. Until he suffered a stroke last month, Father Joe was in regular touch with the President, offering encouragement and loyalty...
