...Kennedy's tomb in Arlington National Cemetery, where a $2,000,000 monument is planned, thousands marched by each day. Cemetery authorities had received so many requests to lay wreaths at the graveside on Nov. 22 that they closed reservations months ago, granted permission for 21 such ceremonies; among the privileged few were West German Foreign Minister Gerhard Schroder and Juanita Castro, anti-Castro sister of the Cuban dictator.

Its motley heroes are an incompetent Army officer (Stuart Whitman), his much-abused Negro aide (Cleveland Fullback Jim Brown), a half-breed cutthroat (Tony Franciosa), and a grizzled lay-about (Richard Boone) who loves red-eye as passionately as he loathes redskins...
