    Cameto rysticjue The Am inued Skis• m " Camelot's Mystique: The American Public's Continued Fascination With the Kennedy Assassination By LynDee Stephens University of North Texas Capstone Honors Thesis Spring 1999 h t /l/^ Gloria Cox, university honors program director Richard Wells, journalism department chairman Amid the tract homes and two-car garages that peppered the American landscape in the decade following World War II, there was a controversy brewing, one that could not be contained by government or society. Though America in the 1950s appeared on the surface an ideal society full of hardworking men and happy housewives, it was then that the first strains of the tension that would split the nation over age, morals and race in the 1960s began. It was in this climate, too, that a young, charismatic senator from Massachusetts began a rise to power that ended in his assassination in November 1963 and drew a nation into the mystique of a presidency that would hold widespread fascination for more than a quarter-century. John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, on May 29,1917. His parents, Joseph and Rose Kennedy, were a wealthy and politically active couple. Joe Kennedy was a United States ambassador with high hopes for the family's future. Rose, in particular, had watched her Jiusband's rise in the international arena and had big plans for her nine children, of which John was the second boy (Patterson, 1). John grew up on the family's New England estate as a young man with big ideas. He attended Princeton University briefly in the late 1930s before transferring to Harvard in 1936, where he would graduate in 1940.

Answers and Questions The Unsolved Murder of JFK’s Mistress Two books shed light, though not conclusively, on the brutal murder of a mistress of JFK. By Donald E. Wilkes, Jr. Wednesday, May 30, 2012 Perhaps the most notorious unsolved murder of a woman in America in the 20th century was the slaying in our nation's capital of Mary Pinchot Meyer on Oct. 12, 1964. While taking her daily walk on a towpath in a public park in Washington, D.C. in broad daylight, Meyer was suddenly and violently seized from behind by a powerful attacker who, after a short struggle, shot her twice with a handgun, execution-style, at very close range. The first shot sent a bullet into the left side of her head about two inches in front of the ear. It inflicted a lethal wound which would have soon killed her had it not been for the fatal second shot, fired from above her right shoulder a few seconds later, which sent a bullet through her chest cavity into her aorta and killed her instantly.

  • To Identify and Honor Great Neck's Most Notable Homes ONE COVE LANE, KINGS POINT, NY
    HERITAGE RECOGNITION PROGRAM To Identify and Honor Great Neck’s Most Notable Homes ONE COVE LANE, KINGS POINT, NY he home at One Cove Lane is the former carriage house, stables, hayloft T and water tower built c. 1879 on the property of “The Cove,” an eleven- acre estate on West Shore Road owned by Cord Meyer II (185 4 –1910) and his wife, Cornelia Meyer (185 6–1939). “The Cove” was their main residence, built on the shorefront of what is now Cove Lane. Cord Meyer II was the son of a German immigrant, Cord Meyer, of Dick & Meyer, an old firm that refined sugar in Cuba. On his father’s death, c . 1891, Cord Meyer II inherited a portion of his father’s $7,000,000 fortune. He became a wealthy financier, industrialist and developer of large tracts of land, including the areas now known as Elmhurst and Forest Hills. He was active in politics, serving as Chairman of the New York State Democratic Party. His friends included President Grover Cleveland. Cord Meyer II’s son, Cord Meyer, Sr. (1895–1964), was a senior diplomat and real estate developer. He is listed as one of the original Early Birds of Aviation, a group of pioneer pilots who flew solo before 1917.

  • Mary's Mosaic (Book Review) (Summer 2012)
    Mary’s Mosaic The CIA conspiracy to murder John F. Kennedy, Mary Pinchot Meyer and their vision for world peace Peter Janney New York: Skyhorse, 2012, $26.95, h/b Mary Pinchot Meyer is one of the footnotes to the Kennedy assassination. She married future CIA bigwig Cord Meyer in 1945 and their social circle in the 1950s included many of Washington’s ruling elite. As far as it was then possible for a woman to be an insider, she was one. She was good-looking, talented and financially independent. After divorcing Meyer in 1958 she became a bit of a bohemian amongst the Wasps of Georgetown – a painter, a doper and an LSD user. She might have lived a long and interesting life had she not become one of JFK’s lovers and joined the list of those linked to the Dallas event who died a violent death. She was shot in Washington in 1964 while taking her daily walk along a canal towpath. The Washington police duly arrested the nearest available black male and tried to convict him of her death. Thanks to spectacularly sloppy police work and a very good defence lawyer, the frame failed. Meyer surfaced in Timothy Leary’s memoir Flashbacks with Leary’s account of phone calls from Meyer talking of smoking dope with JFK in the White House and forming a kind of LSD conspiracy with some female friends, to turn on the powerful men of the Washington elite.1 Meyer was also one of the people who knew enough about Washington and its secrets not to believe the Warren Commission’s account of the murder of her lover.

  • JFK Was the Wrong Man in the Wrong Place at the Wrong Time
    www.kennedymustbekilled.com “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” — George Santanya John F. Kennedy was headed down a path to failure the moment his family stole the 1960 presidential election. Patrick McCarthy knew that JFK was the wrong man in the wrong place at the wrong time. He had witnessed years of poor judgment and appall- ingly bad behavior by Jack and his family, and it both concerned and sickened him. Cold War tensions were overheating, and he knew Jack Kennedy couldn't possibly stand up under its pressures. He wasn't alone in those thoughts. The Kennedys had made many enemies over the years and the political power struggle that had been long brewing was now coming to a head. When JFK's numerous foreign policy blunders took the nation to the very brink of nuclear war, and his meddling in civil rights inflamed racial hatreds in the South, a shadowy group of powerful men known as the Patriots decide it is time to act. Kennedy must be stopped before his next mistake resulted in the deaths of millions of innocent Americans. On November 22, 1963, a cruel twist of fate finds Patrick McCarthy concealed on a grassy knoll in Dealey Plaza, cradling a sniper's rifle and waiting patiently for the presidential motorcade to pass by. Spanning the period from 1946-1978, KENNEDY MUST BE KILLED is a meticulously researched novel featuring a wide ranging cast of historical characters, including Jack and Jackie Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Dwight Eisenhower, Allen Dulles, Alger Hiss, Joseph McCarthy, Nikita Khrushchev, J.
