Constancy, thy name is Rudy Vallee, 63. On Oct. 13, the onetime Vagabond Lover will complete his third full year on Broadway as J. B.

After the dramatic withdrawal of Nelson Rockefeller as a G.O.P. presidential candidate (TIME, Jan. 4), Nixon had scrapped his plans for an active invasion of New Hampshire, relied on an intensive telephone campaign and the well-knit efforts of the state's dominant Republican organization to put him across. Kennedy, on the other hand, had waged an all-out campaign, powered by his family, his own indefatigable youthfulness, and the strength and cunning of the Kennedy organization, which, months before, had virtually taken over the fledgling New Hampshire Democratic machine...
