Others failed to meet the confrontation test. Fred V. Heinkel, head of the Missouri Farmers Association, was a leading contender for Agriculture Secretary until he arrived in Georgetown. But he had no answers to several key questions put to him by Kennedy. Jack was astounded and, to double-check, had Bobby question Heinkel alone. When Heinkel left, late in the afternoon, he was no longer in the running. Jack settled on Minnesota's defeated Governor Orville Freeman, a Marine combat veteran, for Agriculture...
Miraculously, out of the flaming carnage a boy was hurled to a soft landing in a snow bank. He was eleven-year-old Stephen Baltz of Wilmette, Ill., traveling alone to meet his mother and sister in New York. Two cops rushed to him, wrapped their coats about his flaming body, rolled him in the snow. In a car bound for the hospital, the child asked again and again if he would die, and a neighborhood woman assured him that he would be all right because, she said, she had a son of his age. At the hospital...
While Cinemactor Peter Lawford pushed ahead with a talent-packed extravaganza aimed at paying off the $2,000,000 deficit of the recent Democratic campaign (TIME, Dec. 19), Peter's mother melodramatically moved to meet her own bills.

...Legislature will probably neither initiate reform nor call a referendum to vote on a convention. A petition of 75,000 names would then force the question onto the ballot in 1962 and the body would meet in the summer of 1963. In the end it might give the governor and other top executive officers co-terminous 4-year terms and shift the counties' few duties to the state agencies; it might cut the size of the General Court and require it no longer to play town council for every hamlet, passing petitions for dog wardens' tenure and the like...
