GOP leaders including Reagan disputed the claim, noting the crowd and gestures were misinterpreted by some observers.

Cardinal Cushing Dies at 75 After Cancer Battle
Richard Cardinal Cushing died Monday at age 75 after a long cancer struggle. His body lies in state at Holy Cross Cathedral with a requiem Mass planned as his burial at St. Coletta's Home for Retarded Children. A long time fixture in Boston, he served as archbishop for 26 years and was made cardinal in 1958, with close ties to the Kennedy family and U.S. leaders. He faced illness since 1954 and had asked to retire to serve the poor abroad, but Pope Paul VI delayed action.
