Kennedy wrote: Dr, King suffered the fate of heroes But in his death I pray that the example of love and trust he gave us can help free us of the violence and tragedy that hate produces Two months later, Senator Kennedy himself died from an as sassin's bullet. With the tragic deaths of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Sena tor Robert F. Kennedy, America lost two of its greatest leaders Their lives and their faith were truly indivisible, and their roles as spokesmen for peace and understanding will never be filled As we mourn them, perhaps the most fitting tribute that we could give them would be to rededicate ourselves to the principles for which they lived and for which they died.

A Year of The Graduate, the Guru, and the Rresident's Decision ABOVE: Following his announcement to the na- tion that he would not seek another term, a weary and tired President Johnson ponders over one of the many vital issues facing the United States today. LEFF: Despite the racial problems at home and the war abroad, a Negro soldier still has hope for a brighter year ahead as he comforts himself with the melodic strains of his guitar. Then, in mid May, Alabama's Lur- Ieen Wallace, -41, died of cancer. Having served only 16 months as her husband's stand-in, lVlrs. Wallace was the first American woman ever to hold a gubernatorial position. The Rresident's decision not to run for a second term opened the way for vigorous campaigning among presidential hopefuls. Hitting the Democratic campaign trail were Vice-President Hubert Humphrey, lVlinnesota's Senator Eugene lVlc- Carthy, and New York's Senator Robert Kennedy. With lVlichigan's Governor George Romney withdraw- ing from the race, the Republican spotlight fell on former Vice-Rresi- dent Richard Nixon and New York's Governor Nelson Rockefeller. On June 5, 1968, in the midst of political triumph, the nation was stunned with the attempted assas- sination of Senator Robert Ken- nedy. Just moments after making his California primary victory speech in the ballroom of a Los Angeles hotel, Kennedy was shot as he walked through a back passage- Way leading to a press room. On June 6, 25 hours after the shooting, Bobby Kennedy died and a nation wept.
