Senator Hubert H. Humphrey, the Democratic Vice-Presidential nominee, will pay a campaign visit to Boston today...
Amid this confusion, Volpe would stand silent, angry, and detached. Adoring order, he shows little patience with indecision or vacillation. Each morning, no matter what the circumstances, he attends Mass. Nearly every afternoon he stops the campaign caravan to visit a local priest.

If his health could take the strain (a question to everyone except the astonishing old man himself), the trip should provide a string of modest but unbroken successes. After two weeks and six countries, the educated guess was more or less on target. In the third week, trouble materialized. De Gaulle's visit...
