Like Soviet President Nikolai Podgorny in Italy a week earlier, Kosygin got a friendly welcome in Britain-though anti-Communist demonstrators dogged his path. When he could get away from the high and mighty, Kosygin got to shake a few plebeian hands, sometimes in response to cries of: "Give us a shake, mate." At one point a pretty 18-year-old girl popped past police escorts, greeted him with: "Hello, my old fruit."* Replied Kosygin gravely: "You are the young Britain I want to meet.

Fred Muggs, the rubber-pantsed chimp, ran amuck on daily cue; publicists seemed to own the show, particularly if they were pushing gimmicky toys or beauty...
Like it or not, Senator Robert Kennedy has a reputation he can't shake for hanging tough, cool and humorless. The combination might be surefire at the ballot box, but at the box office-sure chill. Or so it seemed until a few weeks ago, when out came Wild Thing, a new 45-r.p.m. recording of a big-beat tune. The vocalist is a dead ringer for Bobby and he purportedly is at a recording session...
