It shouldn't. For example

from Tkinter import *
app = Tk()
app.geometry("%dx%d%+d%+d" % (600, 400, 0, 0))
f = Frame(app)
f.pack()
L1 = Label(f, text="Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice")
L1.grid(row=0, column=0, columnspan=2)
L2 = Label(f, text="Barney")
L2.grid(row=1, column=0)
L3 = Label(f, text="Betty")
L3.grid(row=1, column=1)
app.mainloop()

Just grid everything in the frame then pack the frame in the Tk(). However do 
not mix grid and pack in the same frame or it will lock up your app. E.g. 
*dont* do this:

   L1 = Label(f, text="Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice")
   L1.grid(row=0, column=0, columnspan=2)
   L2 = Label(f, text="Barney")
   L2.pack()
