This . might i sound- i a :bit repetitious, but , it .. keeps . the two political thespians from upstaging each other . After about .25 minutes, Nixon emerged from the wings and began juggling questions. He was, I thought, in fine form. . , . Some of the inquiries were rather s'uarply angled, but he demonstrated that he can still handle them with aplomb. His only mishap was knock ing over the water glass that Dirksen had left on the lec tern. . ( ' . For what it may be worth, I got the impression that Nix on . is thinking ahead-possi-bly- to. around 1964.....,,...
