vey Oswald had been brought, dying, to the same hpspital. Told of the shooting, Connally could only shake his head. His assailant was taken to “Trauma Room No. 2,” where surgeons strove Friday, to save the governor from severe wounds dealt him by President Kennedy’s slayer. The 46-year-old Texas chief executive, who resigned in 1961 as Kennedy’s secretary of the Navy to run successfully for governor, was eating hearty

meals of chicken and pie. He shaved himself with an electric razor, left-handed. His right wrist was shattered by the sniper’s bullet. The governor will be hospitalized for ( about two weeks. He lost the fifth rib of his right side, because it was too badly damaged-by the assassin’s bullet to be saved. But his doctorss aid they were successful in patching a hole in his right lung, and they expect him to recover fully.

Heavy Burden Is Thrust On New President

WASHINGTON (UPD—President Johnspn led his fellow citizens and the mighty of the earth today in mourning a fallen'' comrade, John Fitzgerald Kennedy. The new Chief Executive of the United States, ramrodstraight, his face etched with sadness, joined with millions around the world in piaying his last respects to the .slain President. But within hours after the last, sad rites for his former chief, Johnson must take up anew the great burdens of the office so suddenly thrust upon him. He planned a reception for the many foreign heads of state attending the funeral, the greatest number ever .to gather in the United States for any reason. It was expected that some of the pressing international problems facing the new administration would be touched upon, if only briefly. Setting Fast Pace Johnson, working at a breathtaking pace his elevation to the presidency in Dallas Friday, also was expected to confer with aides and high officials throughout the day. He goes before a joint session of Congress Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. EST to outline his concept of the presidency and to plead once again for national unity. Congressional leaders pledged him bipartisan cooperation Friday night. Johnson already . was receiving suggestions as to his conduct of foreign policy. Chairman J. William Fulbright, DArk., of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Sen. Bourke B. Hickenlooper, Rlowa, ranking Republican member, joined Sunday in urging him to arrange an informal “exploratory” meeting with Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev. The President’s third day in office began at 10 a.m. Sunday at his home in the Spring Valley section of Washington. He received a briefing from Director John A. McCone of the CenMrs. Kennedy Bears Up Weir During Ordeal WASHINGTON (UPD - The terrible ordeal of Mrs. Jacr queline Kennedy reached its final phases today. The widow of the dead Prfesi- , dent, still bearing up proudly three days after her husband’s murder, chose to walk instead of ride behind the caisson bearing her husband’s body to a funeral mass. - - Before mat, the 34 - year -old Mrs. Kennedy, who marked her 10th wedding anniversary in September; made her third sorrowful trip to the Capitol in less than 20 hours this morning. This time it was to accompany the body to St. Matthews Cathedral for a Low Pontifical Mass. Mrs. Kennedy left the White House shortly before 10:30 a.m., EST, to go to the Capitol. There she stood on the steps as the flag-draped casket was slowly brought from the Rotunda and placed on the horse-drawn caisson. Dirge sounded in the back-'

tral Intelligence Agency and McGeorge - Bundy, President Kennedy’s special assistant for national security. Attends Church An hour later he attended services at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, joining members of the congregation for coffee afterward. Then at 12:40 p.m. he went to the White House to join the cortege escorting President Kennedy’s body to the Capitol. Back at his makeshift executive offices in the old State Department building near the White House, he conferred with Ambassador. Henry Cabot Lodge and received a firsthand report on the situation in South Viet Nam. With him were Secretary of State Dean Rusk, Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara, Undersecretary of State George W. Ball and Bundy. He left his office at 7 p.m. The days and hdurs of Lyndon Baines Johnson had just begun. ground. From thb Capitol the former First Lady, accompanied by her brothers-in-law. Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy and Sen. Edward (Ted) Kennedy, rode to the White House. Follows On Foot From that point, she was to follow her husband’s body on foot, heading a procession of world and national leaders. The final stage of that journey stretched past silent throngs a six-block, half-mile route. Mrs. Kennedy emerged from the White House for the solemnity’s with her two children, Caroline, 5, and John Jr., who became 3 today. They waited at the White House as she went to the Capitol to .attend the ceremony of removing the casket from the Rotunda. An estimated quarter of a million persons had filed by in homage over the 18 hours the slain President lay in state there. This morning —for the third time — Mrs. Kennedy paid her third visit to the coffin in the Rotunda. She and her brothers-in-law knelt briefly at one end of the coffin — as she had twice Sunday. She did not kiss the casket today as she had on the two previous occasions. * The widow of the nation’s 35th President bore heroically the burden of her grief, but found it difficult —to surrender his earthly remains. She has not been able to separate herself from him. Twice Sunday she went to the Capitol Rotunda where his body lay in state to kiss his flag-shrouded cqffin. Mrs. Kennedy will walk ahead of kings, chiefs of state and former presidents today <sn the last march she will make with the man who made her the First Lady of the land. From the moment the Presidents JelE in her. arms shot by an assassin, she has held back the sobs, much the way the fallen Chief did when he had to bear in public the heavy grief of the loss of their infant son last August. Going into Seclusion After today’s rites she is expected to go into seclusion where she can mourn alone and unobserved. Cherishing history and knowing their place in it, Mrs. Kennedy took her children, John Jr. and Caroline, to the Capitol Sunday to fix in their memories the national homage paid to their father.
