...place-including non-Candidate Teddy-physical as well as pet competition had to be included. Bobby's son Michael, 14, won on the obstacle course (1 min. 19 sec.), while his brother Joe, 19, fell over every hurdle and flopped spectacularly into a mud puddle. "Bobby Shriver could do it backward better than that," needled Eunice Shriver, who was the star of the Slide-for-Life sling-a survival rig of ropes and pulleys set up by the Green Berets...
There were 350 people in the Atrium of Washington's John F. Kennedy Center for the fourth annual Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Awards lunch -and the Kennedys dominated them all. Teddy, with his sisters Eunice Shriver and Jean Smith, were magnets to the old Kennedy hands, and Ethel, who had broken her leg while skiing, joked in a wheelchair. Kathleen (R.F.K.'s eldest) was the quintessential Radcliffe girl in granny glasses and flowing hair. Eldest son Joe-being nudged more and more into the family spotlight-gracefully presented bronze busts of his father to the winners...
...stabbed the Hollywood sky to honor the world's Glamour People. Except that this premiere was on Broadway. Raquel Welch was there, and Ali MacGraw and Bob Evans, Elliott Gould, Polly Bergen, Jack Nicholson, Paula Prentiss, Rona Barrett, Andy Williams.

Eunice Shriver, who relishes politics as much as any Kennedy, is similarly negative about 1972. "Some day I'd like to see him in the White House." she says, "but only when he's ready." Ted himself, for all his campaigning, says reflectively, "I feel in my gut that it's the wrong time, that it's too early." And yet, when a friend recently asked Kennedy why he did not take himself out of the running with a Sherman statement...
Naturally there were oodles of Kennedys. Eunice Kennedy Shriver looked ladylike in cerise taffeta by Cardin. Joan Kennedy, the wife of Senator Edward Kennedy, swirled by in lavender crepe slit to the tops of her thighs. But sitting two rows in front of Mrs. Robert F. Kennedy was an unlikely figure: an Australian girl in T shirt, blue jeans and bare feet. Having come to stare, she had been given a ticket by an unknown man. "Are you staying?" asked a bystander. "My God, yes!" she gasped, then padded dazedly to her choice seat...
