The man of the hour at the solemn presentation ceremonies in Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum of Art: Mr. Kenneth (surname back home in Syracuse, N.Y.: Battelle), who was already famed as clippers and comb expert for Marilyn Monroe, Tina Onassis and Judy Garland, but who achieved the bouffant ("I like to call it uncontrived fullness") summit with Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy...
