NEWS is made and wide public interest legitimately ensues when a potential presidential candidate takes a wife. Yet when New York's Governor Nelson Rockefeller wed Margaretta Fitler Murphy, the efficient Rockefeller apparatus, usually so adept at projecting its image of "Rocky" as a good guy, shut down. Not only did normal press-agentry freeze into "no comment," but friends and acquaintances of the celebrated bride and groom became uncommonly closemouthed. The press found the going worse than rocky. Joe David Brown, no gossip columnist but a widely respected reporter and novelist, had more trouble documenting the Rockefeller-Murphy idyll -- even though he had been watching it develop for a long time -- than he has ever before encountered in a twenty-five-year career. Among the knowledgeable, candor was overcome by caution. Nevertheless, this week's factual report gives the story behind a marriage that may mean the end of a political romance.
OTHER BYLINES. Associate editor William Trombley examines the career of Edgar Kaiser, controversial heir to an industrial empire. Robert Jennings lives in Los Angeles, close enough to Hollywood to have a view of the weird world that produced a star like Sandra Dee . . . . Assistant editor Lincoln Haynes has kept an eye on high-flying experimental aircraft since he first did a story on the X-l, predecessor of today's X-15 . . . Thomas Whiteside's account of an incredible ordeal in the Canadian Northwest results from extensive -- and exclusive -- interviews with Ralph Flores and Helen Klaben, who survived seven weeks on a mountainside where their plane crashed. Whiteside talked to rescuers, bush pilots and survival experts; none could understand how the pair managed to keep alive in below-zero cold without food. Did Flores find edible moss or lichens? "It wasn't any moss," Flores said, "it was the Spirit.". . . . Geoffrey Bocca, like his subject Ian Fleming, was born in England. A British correspondent during World War II, he was twice taken prisoner, and twice he escaped. . .. Edward Linn won the National Sportswriters and Sportscasters Award as best magazine sportswriter of 1962 . . . . Post Editor-at-Large Robert Sherrod is only the second American writer in five years to get an exclusive interview with Marshal Tito, ruler of a Communist nation which seems to have found its modus vivendi by playing off the East against the West and the Soviets against the Red Chinese.
