...London, Bureau Chief Curt Prendergast tried to track down Lord Harlech; in Dublin, a stringer searched out the remaining Kennedy relatives. Washington's Bonnie Angelo, summoned from a Detroit union hall where Hubert Humphrey was promising higher social-security pensions, hurried eastward to deal with the world of million-dollar yachts and $3,000 dresses.

...facade lies a volcanic rage and a long memory for a grudge. He is apolitical, and indeed could hardly be otherwise in the volatile Athenian climate.

The Democrats figure that by Election Day they will have spent only about $10 million, less than half as much as the Republicans have budgeted. After Nov. 5, the Democrats expect to face a deficit of perhaps $5 million.
