He was asked, for instance,
II the live televising of a press

He said calmly he thought not,
that he favored more direct

He refused to say anything

He refused to get into the

was restrained in his comments

He said he was glad they

begged that they would re-

He was equally benign toward
dissenting Democrats in New

Mr.. Kennedy was completely

He was so self-possessed that
