Afterwards, he headed back to the Capital Hill, where he attended a meeting on government operations in room Y-82 and then attended a reception for the A. J. Fletcher Company in Room 259 in the Mayflower Hotel.
Kennedy, who was not a heavy drinker, finally finished his day with cocktails with Drew Pearson and Louis Bromfield.
