...tends to be more gregarious, but his home life is just as simple. He lives in rural Broad Run, Va., an hour out of Washington. "When he gets home from the Senate," says his son-in-law, Senator Howard Baker, "he changes into the most decrepit clothes you ever saw and gets out into his garden. He loves getting dirt under his fingernails." Baker adds that Dirksen "likes to sit out on the terrace with a bourbon in one hand and a BB gun in the other to shoo the squirrels away from the seeds he puts...
...pursuit at the inquest. He has some lapses to make up. It was he who agreed that an autopsy did not seem necessary immediately after the accident, permitted Mary Jo's body to be shipped to Pennsylvania and, many believe, avoided involvement in the matter until he belatedly saw an opportunity to make political capital out of it. In 1948, Dinis, a Democrat, replaced his late father, an immigrant Portuguese furniture maker, in the Massachusetts state legislature. Ten years ago he became the youngest district attorney ever elected in Massachusetts, but since then his ambition and oratory have failed...
...almost all of his loyalty and attention. The son of Rose Kennedy's sister Mary Agnes Fitzgerald and Joseph F. Gargan, a prominent Lowell, Mass., attorney and World War I hero, Joey Gargan virtually grew up with the Kennedys. His parents died when he was young, and Rose saw to his school and college expenses. Almost Ted's age, Gargan became more like a brother than a cousin to Teddy, although Gargan has always found himself in a somewhat subservient role. He served as advance man for Kennedy's appearances and enjoyed total personal confidence...
...will be drawn from officials involved in the event-Edgartown Police Chief Dominick Arena and Associate Dukes County Medical Examiner Dr. Donald Mills-and the residents of Edgartown and Chappaquiddick. One of the latter is Christopher ("Huck") Look Jr., a part-time deputy sheriff, who can testify that he saw two people in a black car with the license prefix "L" (Kennedy's license plate was L-78207) heading for the Dike Bridge at approximately 12:45 a.m., an hour and a half after Kennedy said that he and Mary Jo had left for the ferry. Another is Russell...
Joseph Gargan and Paul Markham, who were with the Senator after the accident but have been silent so far, will probably be called to testify. The fact that both are lawyers complicates the matter. Unless they plead the Fifth Amendment, they will be required to report all they saw that night. If they claim that a lawyer-client relationship existed between them and Kennedy, they still must testify, but they may not, by law, be asked to relate their conversations with Kennedy unless the Senator agrees to let them. To prove such a relationship, they must show that Kennedy asked...
