Mrs. Gallagher also reports that Jackie once sold an aquamarine from the Brazilian government and a diamond-clip wedding present from her father-in-law in order to buy a $6,160 antique sunburst pin she had seen in London. On another occasion, says Mrs. Gallagher, it took powerful persuasion to prevent Jackie from removing the diamonds in a sword given by Saudi Arabia's King Saud. The installment ends at Christmastime 1962, with Jackie embracing Mrs. Gallagher and telling her, "You know...

...paunchy, middle-aged Italian restaurant owner (Richard Castellano) discovers that he has an illegitimate son from a long-past liaison.

The new device may be as comparatively simple as a heart cart that contains everything from a cardiac pacemaker to a supply of oxygen...

It is played at a feverish pitch by Sammy Davis Jr., who has surrounded himself with such Negro performers as Ossie Davis, Louis Armstrong and, as the girl in his cheering section, a sunburst of shy sepia charm named Cicely Tyson.
