...Kennedy's Justice Department stalling on the prosecution of "students" who defied U.S. travel regulations and paid a propaganda visit to Castro's Cuba? "I'm not as close to Bobby as I was. He threatens a lot of people, and about all he does is walk the dog." How would Barry treat an unpatriotic teen-aged girl? "Maybe if she took off her tennis shoes and got her hair cut and took a bath, she'd be all right." When will he announce his presidential intentions? "I can't give you any timetable...
