Indeed, L.B.J. was so often out of the U.S. that speculation inevitably arose that J.F.K. was just trying to keep him out of the White House's way. Things got to the point where Kennedy recently had to deny at a press conference that he was planning to "dump" Lyndon...

Sprint Champion Roger Mc-Cluskey rammed into California's Chuck Hulse, and both Offies cracked into the retaining wall at close...
