WbiJe waiting for the train at Trenton, NJ., Newman mentioned that the town used to be a place for Sunday baseball games when nearby Philadelphia had its ban on Sunday games. The networks and educational TVe NET were resourceful the past few days in bringing viewers special programs. KCET here Friday night had a special NET program consisting of two hours of music and interviews. 'Some Friends of Robert Kennedy* was on CBS with Roger Hudd hosting William Walton, C. Douglas Dillon, Charles Eveis, Frank llaakiewicz and Peter Edelmcn. NBC's Ray Scherer traded memories on Robert Kennedy with Jack Paar, columnist Art Buchwald and Rene Carpenter, wife of former astronaut Scott Carpenter. All of these extra programs were interesting, yet still cad and not easy on the emotions of viewers who lived through similar T.V. experiences following the assassination of John F. Kennedy and Dr. Martiu Luther King Jr. • For Saturday alone the three networks tised 40 color T.V. cameras and 300 newsmen and technicians to bring the all-day funeral event to the TV screens. The statistics and planning going into such a project are impressive, but nothing compared to the resulting impact on millions of viewers who now witness first- hand such a national tragedy. .

"f "' XKTHUE SCHLES1NGEB JB? (Indlcat* paqc, ooroc of city and «lot».) Ko one ever forgot, of course, ihat Robert Kennedy was the brother of a President of the United States; and some accused him of running for the Presidency on his brother's G-l Los Angeles Time- coattails. Yet Robert Kenned3* had not only an Los Angeles, Calif. identity but a record of his own—an identity and a record which would have entitled him to consideration for the Presidency had none of his relatives ever been elected to anything higher than city ssscmblyrnan. This record began in a Ferious sense when, amidst total skepticism on Capitol Hill and among the prers, John Kennedy appointed the younger brother his attorney general. Skepticism was imc'erstanrlAble. Robert Ken- nedy was hardly 3J years old. His legal experience had been limited to sen-ice as counsd for senatorial committee?; and there his role had been one of a zealous—many thought ovcrzealons—prosecutor. His chief fame then was as the mancger of his brother's campaign. His designation as the nation's chief taw enforcement officer seemed an act of dynastic indulgence. Why rot, someone said, make him postmaster general, like Jim Farley? But Robert Kennedy was a good deal move D-t.: 6/9/68 than a party manager. His brother valued his : Final intelligence and judgment and wanted him by i his firtc. They lu»d thought for a moment of a :;.r 'clittr Schlesinr deputy or aishtant secretaryship—pevhapi in the Defame Dcpr.rtrotnl or in Latin American Tltla: affairs at the State Department—but their father had pointed out this would put the K3K5AI/T official who stood bslweon the brother and the President in an Impossible position. So the President-elect decided to go ahead vith the attorney generalship. riam for Announcement He later told how Tie planned to announce the appointment: "I think I'll open the front door of the Georgetown HOUJS fome morning about 2 a.m., look vp and down the street, ?n3.

These years strengthened his sense ol Identification with the untouchable* of Amer- ican society.

A-lli Herald Examiner los Angeles, Calif was, more than anything else, a man of great faith. . He had faith in his God, faith in his country and faith in himself. Because of his deep convictions, Robert F. Kennedy was simultaneously a great idealist, a great fighter and a potentially great leader. Even those who disagreed with many of his views share deeply in the national sorrow at his untimely and tragic death. For America has lost a great American.
