...shock scenes. In Red Dust (1932) he discovered Jean Harlow bathing in a rain barrel, and in It Happened One Night (1934) he shared a tourist cabin with Claudette Colbert, their beds divided by a blanket stretched on a rope. In the same picture, when he took off his shirt and revealed nothing but a glossy chest, he touched off a crisis among undershirt manufacturers...
Slowly, as the Election Day sun rose off the horizon, Jack Kennedy's old cool confidence reasserted itself. Returning to his home at Hyannisport, he posed for photographers with Jacqueline and little Caroline, then changed into slacks and a sports shirt and relaxed. Once, he and his brother Bobby went outside and tossed a soccer ball around for a few minutes, though even this momentary fling lacked the old Kennedy flavor of sibling aggressiveness.

Machines or Ike? Nixon napped in his suite for most of the afternoon, then settled down to await the results, wearing a lounging robe over his shirt and trousers.

An even better attention-getting device was Personae, published in 1909, in which he first struck the tone of most modern Anglo-American poetry - spare, objective, unornamented, elliptic. Dante, the medieval troubadours, and his pet hate-love Whitman had been his tutors, but he had done the homework of craftsmanship. (In one undergraduate year he had written a sonnet a day.) Though stripped for action, many of Pound...
