...around the world had showered Moscow correspondents with their own rockets (correspondents' term for inquiries about competitors' stories). France-Soir and London's Daily Mail both ran Page One drawings of the compleat astronaut in space suit, breathing gear and seat belt. Said one query: "Like interview and first-person impressions."

Then, as now, there was a rule forbidding candidates to pester the University's top administrators. But, ignorant of this, the story goes, Roosevelt approached Eliot and asked him how he was going to vote in the 1900 presidential election. The legend has several variations, all of which glorify F.D.R. as a brash, bright young man who charms the story from Eliot through sheer daring...
