Most of Kennedy's abundantly talented staff were still too numb to sort out future plans for themselves.

Attorney Frank Mankiewicz, the press secretary who performed with such grim efficiency in the hours after the shooting, said sadly: "I can't do this again-not for anyone else...
...could expect scant help from Kennedy forces. Some lower-echelon R.F.K. workers did join up with the McCarthy cause last week, and one Bobby Kennedy staff member, Speechwriter Richard Goodwin, who had worked earlier for McCarthy, may very well return to his old boss.

As 46-year-old John K. Maitland, President of Warner Bros.-Seven Arts Records, puts it: "Our Brooks Brothers suits couldn't link up with these hippie artists...
Before long, Dunfey inns will have another feature. In August, when the entire 13-member clan jets to Dublin for a reunion on the ould sod, the family plans to recruit local barmaid talent to staff "Dunfey's Taverns," being set up in the family establishments...
