Jack Be Quick

Massachusetts' Democratic Senator Jack Kennedy got one more reason this week to wish that 1960 were closer around the corner. On top of his 870,000-vote re-election plurality, Kennedy last week had the word of the Gallup poll that he would walk away from Vice President Richard Nixon if the two ran for the presidency right now--and by a much fatter majority than in any of three earlier trial heats run by Gallup. Results (discounting the undecided):

Feb. June Now

Kennedy 56% 51% 59%

Nixon 44% 49% 41%
