FIRST YEAR CJUNT1NUEL) FROM PAGE OMB fought a culd and a virus, gashed his forehead near his eye brow on a table, and still favors a wrenched back thnt put him on crutuhes for weeks. A medical checkup Dec. 28 produced word that the bad back, strained in a tree-planting ceremony in Canada last May, is stronger, but that there will be ups and down and setbacks. He still is vigorous, restless, a man on the go. He still has a warmth and friendliness toward ordinary people, a sparkling wit, human touches.

He has needed those and other qualities. Including stamina and courage, during a yenr In which both advances anil set- hacks stood out like milestones alone the new frontier as they have in most administrations. The Cuban Invasion debacle Kennedy took full blame for the blunder unqucstlonnbly was tho greatest mistake and taught the hardest lesson of the first year. Kennedy her of Congress, Kennedy never was the show-off type. Rath- encountered prob- nbly his greatest disappointment in Vienna, where he found Soviet Premier Khrushchev as difficult as he though he might be but hoped he wouldn't be.

Persons in daily contact with the chief executive say he got three real lifts toward the close of the year. One was his trip to Venezuela and Colombia. It gave him a feeling that things were moving again in this hemispheres. Another was an interview, given to a Soviet editor, a son-in- law of Khrushchev. It trated the Iron Curtain and, the White House believes, im- 'pressed people around the world with the way Kennedy handled the questions and ewers.

Perhaps the biggest morale booster was the come-from behind Democratic victory in the New Jersey gubernatorial election In November. A Democratic defeat would have been interpreted as something of a Kennedy detent, since ho interceded in the campaign on the onn side and Gen. Dwight D. Efsenhowcr, his predecessor, on the other. One close associate of the thinks Kennedy has "obtained the greatest personal Satisfaction from building up the national defense and from 1 'the administration's soft-sell ap proach to Congress.

The bolstering of the military, from missiles down to conven- tional weapons and manpower, Jn effect drew a line and told Russia any attempt to step across It would mean trouble. On the matter of attempting to ram his program through he got some major and missed on some Kennedy was under pressure 'from men around him to go tho heads of the legislators directly to the voters. He de- against it, partly to ro- this stratagem for some crisis, if necessary. One result was a fusillade Republicans claiming Ken- -nedy was failing to demonstrate leadership. Perhaps Kennedy didn't come to some expectations in the of leadership.

He had long and hard with or, ho sets out quietly on new ventures and also follows patterns of the past. The closest friends of presidential days still are Kennedy's closest friends. An evening or two a week, Kennedy likes to have three or four of them to dinner with himself und Mrs. Kennedy and sit nrouncl lor two or three hours getting their views on events. These groups omit financiers and business barons nnd are more likely to consist of newsmen Kennedy has known long and well.

Lately another old friend, the new British ambassador, David Ormsby Gore, Is Included frequently. Some of the participants say is Kennedy, not they, who docs the brain picking. Many of the President's most trusted associates from the old days now are on the White House staff "government by college roommate," the Republicans say. This points up another change Kennedy's method of operation, rather than In the man Kennedy leans primarily on 17 men for advice and help. He has whittled the total down from about twice that number.

He may be on the telephone at 7 a.m. or midnight telling them what he wants and when he wants it. Tho 17 are the hard core of men in whom Kennedy has the paign or early days. BANK ROBBER SUSPECT Marcus Ell Carter, of Houston, sits in jail at Anahuac, Texas, R. L.
