I was glad to sce Galbraith establish a
point about the negative income tax,
which is often. misunderstood. All too
many people object to the proposal
without really understanding it. They
say: “Why should I work to support
others who don't care to?” The fact is,
as Galbraith made clear, that the nega-
tive income tax is proposed as an alter

native 10 our costly, ineffici and
bureaucracy-ridden wi system. If we
replaced our c 1 welfare apparatus
with a negative income tax, taxpayers

wouhl actually be paving less toward

the support of others than they now do.

Well let's set things straight. “Gabe”

s about as much of a sissy as King.

Kong. And 15 N.F.L. defensive teams have the proof. Why the hair-
styling route then? What else can you do with hair that spends 6 hours
a day under a sweaty, dirty football helmet? Cutting only shortens the
hair. Styling actually shapes it. Gives it body. Lustre. A great, new

PLAYBOY AFTER HOURS

gh society in Bangkok, Thailand. felt
an unexpected tremor in the cultural
explosion when American pianist Myron
Kropp made his debut—and. in all prob-
ability. his final appearance—there late
last year. Though this memorable musi-
cal event seems less likely ro have oc-
curred on a concert stage than in a Marx
Brothers movie. a straizht-[aced (though a
possible puron) review—by critic Kenneth
Langbell—appeared in The Bangkok Post.
In order to do justice to the occasion—and
to Mr. Langbell’s admirably understated
Giitique—we reproduce the latter here
Mr. Kropp had chosen the tide ‘An
Evening with Bach’ for his performance.
Indeed, from the very outset, it was an

would not soon forget. .... A hush fell over

Bach approached the Baldwin concert

placed himself upon the stool

The evening opened with the Tocca-
ta and Fugue m D Minor, ihe “raging
storm’ as described by Schweitzer, which,
even when adapred for piano, gives us
an idea of what the young Bach, whose
as were dose to those of Buxtehude,
meant by virtuosity: bold melodic figures,
surging dynamics, foreful accens and
impassioned modulations which not
frequemly confounded the church con-
gregations. according 10 contemporaries
were alarmed by the intensity of
Bach's expressive power.

"As l have mentioned on
other occasions, the Baldwin concert
grand, while basically a fine instrument,
needs constant attention, particularly in
a climate such as Bangkok's. This is even
more true when the instrument is as old
as the one provided in the Chamber Mu-
sic Room of the Erawan Hotel. In this
humidity the felts which separate the
white keys from the black tend to swell,
causing an occasional key to stick, which
apparently was the case last evening
with the D in the second octave.

“During the ‘raging storm; Mr. Kropp
must be complimented for putting up with
the awkward D. However. by the time the
‘storm’ was past and he had gotten into
the Prelude and Fugue in D Major, in
which the second-octave D plays a major

role. Mr. Kropp's patience was wearing
thin.
"Some who attended the performance

later questioned whether the awkward
key justified some of the language which
was heard coming from the stage during
softer passages of the fugue. However,
one member of the audience, who had
sent his children out of the room by the
midway point of the fugue. had a valid
point when he commented, over the mu-
sic and extemporancous remarks of Mr
Kropp. that the workman who greased
the stool might have done better to use
some of the grease on the second-octave D
key. Indeed, Mr. Kropp's stool had more
than enough gr id during one pas
sage in which the music and ]vrics both
were particularly violent, Mr. Kropp was

fore his remarks had been aimed largely
at the piano and were therefore some-
what muted, to his surprise and that of
those in the Chamber Music Room. he
found himself addressing himsel! direct
ly to the audience

"But such things do happen, and the
person who began to laugh deserves to be
severely reprimanded for this undignified
behavior. Unfortunately. laughter is con-
tagious, and by the time it had subsided
and the audience had regained its com-
posure, Mr. Kropp appeared to be some-
what shaken. Nevertheless, he swiveled
himself back into position facing the pi-
ano and, leaving the D Major unfinished,
commenced on the Fantasia and Fugue in
G Minor.

“Why the concert grand piano's G key
in the third octave chose that. particular
time to begin sticking I hesitate to guess.
However, it is certainly safe to say that
Mr. Kropp himself did nothing to help
matters when he began to usc his feet to
kick the lower portion of the piano in-
stead of operating the pedals as it is gen-
erally done.

“Possibly it was thi
Bach-like hammering to which the sticking,
keyboard was being subjected. But some-
thing caused the right front leg of the
piano to buckle stightly inward. leaving
the entire instrument listing at approx
mately a 35«degree angle from that which
is normal. A gasp went up from the audi-
ene, for if the pino had actually fallen,
several of Mr. Kropp's toes, if not both his
feet, would surely have been broken.

It was with a sigh of relief, therefore,
that the audience saw Mr. Kropp slowly
rise from his stool and leave the stage. A
few men in the back of the room began
clapping, and when Mr. Kropp reap-
peared a moment later, it seemed he was
responding to the ovation. Apparently.
however, he had left to get the red-handled
fire ax which was hung backstage in ca
of fire, for that was what he had in his
hand

My first reaction at seeing Mr, Kropp
Legin to chop at the left leg of the grand
piano was that he was attempting to make
it tilt at the same angle as the right leg
wd thereby corect the list. However,
when the weakened legs finally collapsed
altogether with a great crash and Mr.
Kropp continued to chop. it became ob-
vious to all that he had no intention of
going on with the concert.

“The ushers, who had heard the snap
ping of piano wires and splintering of
sounding board from the dining room.
came rushing in and. with the help of
the hotel manager, Indian warch
men and a passing police corporal. final
ly succeeded in disarming Mr. Kropp
and dragging him off the stage.

Mr. Kropp's performance is that it will be

story that was the vehicle for

olinist who set hi

and a former convict who struck it rich
and tried to force the musician to perform
for him, for which a judge threw the erst-
while con in the pokey.

Now. along come a couple of chaps
from our Research Deparment with not
exactly a sequel but a bit of word playful
embroidery to reinforce our verbal man-
versusmachine plot.

He (the musician) had the patience of
Job and no one had to dun him to get
the job done, but there were days when
he walked around in a dare, yet he kept
his practicing up seven days a week, al-
though it made him so weak he'd have to
play sitting down
strength to go out to see a play. He did
his part, but he felt acute pain when he
would part the felt curtains and peer
through the pane at a peer-group pal,
who had a cute young son, relaxing in
the sun on the pier. Indeed, when his
patience neared exhaustion. he thought
of becoming one of a psychiatrist's p
tients. At such a moment, however rich
the plum toward which he strove. it
seemed of small nt. He felt so
plumb tuckered out that it seemed plain
common sense to forget dollars and
cents, take a plane to almost anywhere
where he could wear nought but seamed
swim trunks, carry no trunks or other
luggage with him, set his sights on sites
so remote—like tropic isles, he cites
an example—that the only aisles |
ever see would be bee-humming groves of
trees that would lead to the sea. However,
his thoughts would soon return to his
project: the need to project his image as
a genuine virtuoso.

One day, in a confessional mood, he
allowed as how he—tike the rest of man-
kind—liked to rest on the couch when
he allowed himself to do so, though he
did not couch it in those words, nor did
he voice the thought aloud on most occa-
sions. He also said that when he would
permit himself such respites, he felt so
guilty about taking this license that he
wished he could get a permit, like a driv-
er's license, which would be equivalent
to constitutional approval tor giving his
weary constitution needed relaxation
when it felt like kneaded dough. But he
never spent the dough to take a vacation,
no matter how spent he felt. Indeed, there
were times when the frequency of his fa
tigues got him to thinking he should don
fatigues and have his anonymous body
shipped 10 the morgue with a lener saying
he would deed it to science. But he would
not fret for long. Instead, he'd take up h
fiddle, fiddle with the fret and play Rimsky-
Korsakov's The Flight of the Bumble Bee,
one piece that brought him peace of mind
and refreshed him like a shot of vitami
By. (He recalled that his grandmother and

mo

his grand mother used to call a qui
bee "one grand way to umwind"—aánd
they'd then listen to the wind, wind the
clock and go to bed. This was the same,
sane grandmother who, when he'd cut his
finger working on a seine net, had wound
a bandage around the wound.) The net of
the maner is that our man would th
wistfully of his end with a
thr

manied fri

ness of his own life, cven though this
same friend was too stupid 10 understand
a simple game like whist fully

But then his will of iron would
triumph over his heart of lead and he'd
let himself be led back to work by it. His
conscience was like a mailed fist that he
mailed to himself daily. Proof of his utter
fatigue was that just one tot of 90-proof
booze would make him utter pitiful
cries, like a hurt tot. So he would eschew
drink and chew gum instead. On such
occasions, he would part his hair neatly
and present himself to the music school's
faculty. who would always assure him he
had the faculty to be the greatest to ever
play a violin part, a sure boost to his cgo
in all ways. Inspired anew, he'd hold a
new violin in one hand, the bow in the
other, and how to the audience. Ironically,
no one had grasped the import of his
genius when this young Pole was just
another musical import.

One day he got so bored that he
poured himself a whole big drink and
drank it all down as if he were pouring it
in a hole bored in the ground by a giant
awl—and then subsided on the floor as
though it were the softest down. Pore
over that! And that’s not the whole story.
When he played in the recording studio,
even the soundest sound engineers weren't
bored, not even the one who hidu't won
a bet of a box of Toll House cookies
and then exacted a toll from his appren
tice to pay for it—which did not abet his
annoyance at losing a bet. In fact, he
nted to box the other bettor to sec
who was the better man, but that chap
had gone to sea. The ship's chaplain
worried about him, thinking he had a
bout of seasickness, "Has the chap lain
down; is he sleeping like a log?” the
chaplain asked when the man failed to
show for dinner. “Sho’ nui" said the
cook's knottying helper. "This is no
Cook's Tour, you know, no matter what
you and U Thant think. According to
the ship's log, we're not even logging onc
knot, to tie our previous. passage."

Anyway, the virtuoso's skill improved
until he was really sharp: Alone in his
flat, he would Hawlesly play Mozart's
Blat Sonata, the one that modulates to
Asharp. Or unn on his tape recorder
and reel off a reel of the Virginia reel, It
makes the mind reel. But on due consider
ation, he realized he'd gained no mone
tary consideration and that all this

Our own J. Paul Getty would shudder
at most of the advice proficred.

In his first novel, Happy Families (Scrib-
ner's), Newsweek books editor Saul Maloft
les go with joyous abandon, bursting
through the tight bounds of editorial word
counts, examining his theme for every
possible nuance with the dedication of a
Talmudist. But unfortunately, he has bit-

and rel

ten off far less than he wants to diew. The
beginning is promising enough: Robert
Kalb, 2 true son of a Herzog, comes back
to New York after banishing himself in
Chicago for seven lean years following
his divorce. His purpose is to establish a
relationship with his I7-yearold daugh-
ter. But out of fear of a rejection and

out of guilt for his past failures, he puts
off secing her. Instead, he stays and
delays endlessly in a world of fatherless
daughters and daughicrless fathers that
carries him from the pads of Greenwich

Village to the offices of a midtown news
magazine, from the kitchens of Morn
ingside Heights to the corridors of subur
ban Colonials. When he finally decides
to sec his daughter, she herself. appears
to have taken off, so Kalb ch 1er
istically decides to do nothing, realizing
that like father, like daughter; the gi

must bum with his own “wayward
blood." The book is laced with genuine.
ly funny spoofs of candy-store proprie
tors and White House residents. of
newsmagazine editors and the publish
ers of self-help books; Maloff has a com
ic eye and a ready wit. But he refuses to
use one word when three will do, and
he repeatedly invokes the same situation
and theme. His novel scems to pass in
review and review and review to the
point of diminishing returns.

The idea that we were put on this
planet to work threads the fabric of
every culture man h

moral to most people. This tenet has
long glorified physical labor and, morc
recently, the concept of full employ
ment. In Two-factor Theory: The Economics
of Reolity (Random House), a financier
and a politicakscience writer—Louis O.
Kelso and Patricia Hetter—denounce full
employment as a losers ploy. based on
ritualistic devotion to things as they
were before the dawn of the industrial
era. The authors claim that since tech
nological gee whizz has made full employ-
ment impossible, politicians can pursue
such a goal only with the help of wars
and totalitarianism—and won't achieve it
even then. Personal toil is only one well
spring of capital wealth, they contend; the
other source is invested capital itself, more
widely distributed by borrowing against a
future wealth created by that very borrow
ing. If that's not entirely clear, neither
are Kelso and Herter. In any event, these
iconoclasts are maintaining that the tra

A true hifidelity automatic turntable
is a precision built mechanism with many
many parts, each of which has a very spe-
cial function to perform. Very often, to
save money in manufacturing, some com.

of these parts, or leave certain of them
out. The turntable will still operate of
course but forget about getting maximum

THE PLAYBOY FORUM

an interchange of ideas between reader and editor
on subjects raised by “the playboy philosophy”

PORNOGRAPHY AND SEX CRIME

In the April Playboy Forum, a News
[ront item reported that sex crimes in
Copenhagen have been reduced by 26
percent. since. the Danes legalized the
publication of pornography. Copenha-
gen’s police chief was quoted as attrib-
uting the decline to the fact that “people
inclined to sex crimes vent their ness
through these books." But, according to
a later report (see The Playboy Forum,
May), the sale of pornography in Copen-
has been greatly reduced since its
vation, If this is correct, couldn't
with equal justice, attribute the re-
n of sex crimes to the fact that
fewer pornographic books were actually
being read during this period?

Isadore Rubin, Ph.D.

The only truly scientific study of the
subject conducted so far tends to confirm
Dr. Rubin's statement that there is no
"one4o-one relationship between s
crimes and pornography.” After intervie
ing 1356 convicted sex criminals, the
Institute for Sex Research reported in
x Offenders? that pornography has no
ignificant effect—one way or another—
on the sex criminal.

However, the Copenhagen statistics are
nonetheless newsworthy: Even though
they don't prove a connection between the
availability of pornography and a decrease
in sex crimes, they do prove that the un-
ham pered sale of pornographic writing does
ses.

We alo consider it refreshing news to
find a police chief with the courage to
state a position that is stubbornly rejected
by many of his fellow law-enforcement
officials, though widely believed in the
scientific community—ie., that pornog-
raphy tends to neutralize deviant impulses
in the potential sex criminal. The oppos-
ing theory is stated below by the director
of the FBI,

The following paragraphs on pornog-
raphy recently appeared in an article by

As we pointed out above, the only exist-
ing scientific evidence. concerning sex
criminals and pornography indicates that
the latter has no signifiant. effect on the
former. Thus, even if pomography were
found in the possession of sex criminals
in “case after case,” it would nol prove a
causal relationship between the possession
and the crime any more than the crimi-
nals’ possession of cigarettes or tooth-
brushes could be causally linked with
their crimes. However, having become in-
creasingly skeptical about undocumented
statements concerning the alleged posses-
sion of pornogiaphy by sex criminals, we
called the statistics. department of the
FBI and asked precisely what percent-
age of these offenders had pornographic
material in their possession when cap-
tured, We were offered a great deal of
evasive conversation but no statistics. On
the chance that this information. might
be in a confidential file, we asked flatly if
such statistics actually existed. The FBI
spokesman would not answer yes or no.

We therenpon contacted the police de-
partments of the three largest cities in
the U. S.—N York, Chicago and Los
Angeles—and were informed by each that
they did not compile such data. Since the
FBI could not oblain statistics of this
nature anywhere else except. from city
police departments (sex crimes do not
normally fall under Federal jurisdiction),
we are forced to conclude that the FRI
director's statement is purely impression-
istic and completely unsubstantia

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA —A survey of mari-

undertaken bythe student newspaper Vhe

untverstvs. Board af Publications. Al-
though the paper wax permitted to reveal

that 13.9 percent of the students had tried
pol, statistics relating to the percentage of
virgins among the Virginia students
were suppressed. The university adminis-
tration did not make clear whether it
censored the sex statistics because Rich-
mond students were copulating more than

normal or less than novmal—or merely
because it was felt that the students
shouldn't. know what they themselves
were doing.

HELL AND HIGH HEMLINES

An albactive 24-year-old schoolteacher
was forced lo resign from her job in a
small California community after being
censured by her principal for wearing
miniskirts to class that were judged “in-
decent” and not “fit to teach kids in" As
reported in the San Bernardino Sun, the
teacher had been instructed not to wear
skirts more than one inch above the
knee. She claims she complied with the
ruling but was accused by the principal
of altering her hemline from hour to
hour by manipulating her shoulder pads
and her straps. She says that he told
her, “It might be necessary to measure
your dresses several times a day.

Meanwhile, in Caracas, Venezuela. a
Roman Catholic Church. oficial has pro-
nounced that modern women must give
up miniskirts or be "condemned to hell.”

BIG BROTHER

WASHINGTON, D. C—Unele Sam has been
accused. of voyeurism by the National
Association of Government Employees,
which claims that nude photographs were
taken of 300 air-trafhe controllers during

says that the men posed willingly for a
biomedical study,” but the union denies
this and demands that the photos. be
returned to the men. Union Vice-President
Alan J. Whitney pointedly added, in his
complaint to the Federal Aviation Ad-
ministration, “Please make sure each man

In two other cases of prurient prying

MATTEAWAN FOLLIES

NEW yorkK—A court has awarded
$300,000 in damages to a man who spent
more than H years in Matteawan State
Hospital for the Criminally Insane after
being convicted of a crime that. normally

carries a maximum sentence of three years.
Originally indicted for second-degree as-
saull, the man pleaded not guilty but
changed his plea to guilty only because,
after 18 inconclusive court. appearances,
he could no longer afford his lawyers
fees and the time lost from work. He
received a suspended sentence and was
placed on probation. After a parole in-
fraction two years later, he was ordered
to undergo a psychiatric examination. He
was, as a result, diagnosed as “paranoid”
and a "chronic alcoholic” and thereupon
locked up for “an indefinite period.”

Judge Henry W. Lengyel, in whose
court the man brought suit against New
York State, declared the psychiatric diag-
noses on which the man’s imprisonment
was based to be inadequate. Furthermore,
Judge Lengyel said that he had mo

tally treated by inmates and attendants,
on one occasion being confined for cight
days, on a nearstarvation diet, in a small,
dark room without a toilet, a water tap,

DE OF THE GUN
okNtA—Police Chief Fred
is pioneering a program to
teach his staf} what it feels like to be
on the other side of the policeman’s qun.
Known as “Operation Empathy,” the
project, as reported in The New York
Times, has involved such mind-blowing
experiences for the officers as (1) 20 of
them being arrested, booked and jailed
in another California town as members
of a check-Jorging ving, (2) 40 of them
being sent to live as skid-row bums in
the scediest section of Los Angeles and
(3) others attending love-ins as hippies
or marching on picket lines with )
Leftists. In none of these operations were
they acting as spies, as other police officers
have done: Chief Ferguson simply wanted
them to learn what it feels like to be afraid
of the police.

IN BLACK AND WHITE

CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA—Chil-
dren of racially prejudiced parents have
no more bias than childien of un[neju-
diced. parents, ij they are entered into
an integrated. school system at an early
level, according to an experimental study
by Dr. Louis Diamant, chairman of the
prychology department at the University
of North Carolina. The research consisted
of giving doll families comprised of both
black and white members to two groups
of kindergarten children, one with biased,
the other with unbiased, parents. As ve-
ported in the Francisco Chronicle,
there was no attempt to reject the black
“family members" by children with prej-
udiced parents. Dr. Diamant commented
that racial. prejudice "stunts a child's de
velopment, because it requires constant
emotional effort to justify attitudes that
basically go against nature.

To my mind, the most relevant mes-
sage of the film Titicut Follies is that
the atrocities depicted represent a more
or less logical development of the pre-

g (X is sick because he is
behaving in such and such a way, and
he is behaving this way because he is
sick) is the legal judgment that such
people, if they commit crimes, are not
responsible for what they have done and
therefore should be treated differently
from “normal” citizens. As Dr. Thomas
Szasz has pointed out for several years,
psychiatrists and courts have used this

as yet unproved belief about the exist
ence of mental illness to remove individ
uals judged to have this “disease” from
the customary due processes of law and
to assign them to the kind of prison hos-
pital so cloquently documented in the
film.

More practically, one might consider

dispel any doubts about the deficiencies

Will ZP“ work for you? The

PLAYBOY INTERVIEW:

. STANLEY KUBRICK

a candid conversation with the pioncering creator of “2001: a space odyssey,” “dr. strangelove” and “lolita”

Throughout his 17-year career as a
moviemaker, Slanley Kubrick has com-
milled himself to pushing the frontiers
of film into new and often controversial
regions—despite the box-office problems
and censorship battles that such a com-
mitment invariably entails. Never a fol-
lower of the safe, well-traveled voad to
Hollywood success, he has consistently
struck out on his own, shattering movie
conventions and shibboleths along the
way. Im many respects, his latest. film,
the epic 72001: A Space Odyssey," stands
as a metaphor for Kubrick himself. A
technically flawless production that took
three years and $10,500,000 to create,
"2001" could have been just a super-
spectacle of exotic gadgetry and lavish
special effects; but with the collaboration
of Arthur. C. Clarke, astrophysicist and
doyen of science-fiction writers. Kubrick
has elevated a sci-fi adventure to the level
of allegory—oating a stunning and dis-
turbing metaphysical speculation on
man's destiny that has fomenied a good-
sized critical controversy and become a

cocktail party topie across the country.

Though Kubrick is by now accus
tomed to living in the eye of such criti-
cal hurricanes, his early background was
hardly tempestuous. He was born in the
Bronx in 1928, the son of a doctor wha
still practices there. Kubrick's adolescent
ambition to become a jazz drummer was
sidetracked at the age of 13, when his
father gave him his first camera—a
Graflex. Habitually quiet and introspec-
live, young Kubrick made few friends,
but his photographic talent. blossomed
rapidly. In 1945, two months before he
graduated from Taft High School m the
Bronx (with a lukewarm 67 average), he
snapped a picture of a weeping news
dealer surrounded by paper announcing
F. D. R.'s death, submitted the photo to
Look and received $25 for his first pnb-
lished work, Shortly thereafter, Look also

gave Kubrick his [ust job: he became one
of the youngest photographers in the
magazine's history.

Kubrick stayed with the magazine until
1950, supplementing his modest income
by playing chess in Washington Square
Park at 25 cents a game (he is still a
superior player); but he was becoming
increasingly intrigued with cinema. His
fost film. “Day of the Fight? was a
short documentary abont prize fighter
Walter Cartier. It cost all of $3900 1o
make, but Kubrick
couldn't retrieve even this investment.
Finally he sold the work to RKO-Pathé
at a $100 los. After one more unher-
alded documentary, Kubrick decided to
try his hand—and his luck—at a feature:
length film. He quit his job at Look,
raised $20,000—mostly from his father
and his uncle—and began shooting “Fear
and Desire" the story of four soldiers,
isolated behind enemy lines during World
War Two, who gain insights about them-
sel in their struggle to rejoin their
outfit. Kubrick now regards the film as
pretentious and amateurish. hut many crit-
ies welcomed it as a remarkably sensitive
first effort. Though rejected by all major
distributors, “Fear and Desire” toured the
arthouse circuit and eventually broke even.

Afler a decidedly commercial murder
mystery called “Killer's Kiss". Kubrick
went lo work on "The Killing.” an intri
‘ately contrived melodrama invoking a
vace-track robbery. The film starred
Sterling Hayden and won Kubrick his
first widespread recognition. As Time
breathlessly declared: “At 27, writer-
director Stanley Kubrick has shown more
audacity with dialog and camera than
Hollywood has seen since the obstreper
ous Orson Welles”? Time subsequenily
called “The Killing" one of the ten best
films of 1956, but the movie proved a
box-office dud.

Undismayed, Kubrick again focused
his attention on a military subject: the

KUBRICK: There's a considerable difference

and philosophers. Some contend that en-

-even one whose technology is essentially
comprehensible to us—would produce a
traumatic cultural shock elfect on man by

with advanced extraterrestr life that
the “reins would be torn from our hands

held and can't be summarily dismissed.

He's a member of that select fraternity, an urbane undergrad who goes out of his way for the out of
the ordinary—from the girls he dates to the challenging courses he takes. And one of the books he
cracks most often is PLAYBOY. Facts: PLAYBOY scores first in college-male readers. Some 2,000,000
students, a commanding 69% of all college men, read PLAYBOY. To win over the college market,

WHEN BLONDE Victoria Drake decided to run
for president of Stanford University’s student

of 38-22-36. Un-Victorian posters of her nude

cropped up on campus to carry Vicky's mes-

population is mostly male (5-to-2 ratio), the
posters disappeared almost as fast as they were
tacked up, and are still being sold at cam
paign headquarters (a room in one of the

candidates—plus several write-ins—our body
politic emerged with a plurality of the votes.
Lacking a majority, however, she was forced

or aftershave lotion to help one sex

was on its own.

Since carly man lived close to his
work, he was spared the wear and tear
of commuting. Self-employed, he was
never upset by having someone less com-
petent promoted over him. Nor was his
blood pressure made to rise dangerously
at thoughts of the income tax, Big Gov-
ernment and giveaway programs.

When the decline began is not known
precisely. It was slow at first. 1t was

hundreds of thousands of years before
man became overweight, lost his muscle
tone and started going to a psychiatrist
beca

use there was something wrong with
sex life. What is clear is that, once
the decline began, it became increasingly
rapid. Man has deteriorated more in the
past 50 years, perhaps in the past 5, than
during any previous millennium.

This decline, both physical and s
ual, has shown such increased rapidity
with each generation that it can hardly
be an accident. There is too much evi-
dence of a carefully thought-out plan.

Obviously, man has decided to do
away with the human race. Not all at
once and openly, but gradually and by
subtle, ingenious means. He could get it
over quickly with a thermonuclear holo
«aust, but this would be too evident, too

of the reason, however, may be found
by anyone who watches TV commercials
and, for purposes of rescarch, stares at
himself in the bathroom mirror immedi-
ately upon arising.

At any rate, it is now clear what is
going on. Man is engaged in an intri-
cate, many-faceted plan to rid the earth
of what was once called Homo sapiens
but now, in an increasingly sexless socie-
ty. is referred 10 simply as Homo. Under

it was not yet perfected, the plan is now

"The straight chair made it casier to sit
for long periods. But it was the uphol-
stered chair, followed by the molded-
plastic chair, that made it possible to si
for hours on end. A contribution was
also made by the rocking chair, a contriv.
ance that gave ambitious people the
feeling they were on the move and get

recent years, the chair has become a
home within a home, its equipment in
duding a bui vibrator and an ice-
making machine. Some of the later models
have bathroom facilities. Once settled,
the sitter has no reason to leave. If
the chair is placed in front of a televi-
sion set, with 2 remote-control device for
changing channels, so much the better,
because now there is something other
than think to do while sitting.

You wheel your chair up until you can

Day after day, you press with all your

down there where those cameras are snap-
ping and the band is playing and all the
big brass is standing at attention and the
biggest brass of all is waiting to pin a
medal on my chest . . . by that time, it
will be too late.

Let me fess up and tell you that I didn’t
warm up to the idea at first. Oh, I knew
I wouldn't be taking the 239,000-milc trip.
to the Moon alone, I knew I'd be onc
half of a iwoman team, all through my
training 1 knew that, but it sure took me
by surprise when they told me that the
other stud on that team was going to be
one of them!

I mean, me?—riding to the Moon
alongside a Russian? Whooo-eee! What a
combo!

Of course, I get used to the idea pretty
quick. I dig that Darwin quote: “Adapt
or die." So I go along with the gag—
symbol of international understanding,
pledge of mutual trust, peaceful coexist-
ence, hands across the sea, the whole scam
(man, there was some mighty fancy lan-
guage flying!). And I dig why they pick
me, too—Mammy Carter's li pickaninny,
John Henry. Great public relations, you
know? I bet the propaganda boys sat up
all night thinking up that one. The Black
and the Red. The Darky and the Russky
Tovarish and the Tar Baby. The Com
rade and the Coon. A little cornball for
my taste, a little obvious, wouldn't you
say? But I’m a good boy, I go along.

Of course, mixed in with all this spi
of-cooperation stuff there's a kingsize
slug of the old Red, White and Blue, too.
Just to give the milk of human kindness
a litte kick, I guess. I mean, I get some
pretty strong hints that even though I'm
supposed to be buddies with this guy.
nobody's forcing me to forget all th
good old game spirit 1 learned back in
Boy Scouts, nobody's telling me 1 have
to take a back seat to anybody, nobody's
ordering me to jettison all the n.
sibling rivalry out of this nice litle
package of brotherly love. But this new
added ingredient isn't obvious at all—it’s
very soft sell. Still, I get the drift. It
would be oh, so nice, they're telling me,
if the American half of this team could
somehow end up Number One Boy in
the eyes of the world. I keep a straight
face while they feed me all this farina.
Not long after, 1 meet my teamie for the
first time.

Now, first thing I notice about this
cat is that he's a John Henry, too—lvan
Genrikhovich, John son of Henry, just
like me, my daddy's name is Henry, too.

am I to complain? One thing 1 got to say
for him—he can talk English a damn
sight better than I can talk Russian.

All through indoctrination and dry
runs, we stay pretty formal except for
that firstname stuff. And then the big
day comes. We smile and shake hands
for the reporters. We cram our tails in-
side this mother and strap ourselves into
our custom-made couches—they're per-

that couch is like slippin

Man, the noiset The vibration! Millions
of pounds of thrust turn this thing into
a Mixmaster! Our body weight doubles,
then redoubles as the g forces squash us
back imo our couches! Like a ton of anvils
dropped on us! We force ourselves to
breathe, strain to open our lungs against
all those g anvils pressing down and doing
their best to flatten us out and squeeze the
air out of us, breathe, that's all you can
think of, breathe, baby, breathe; because
if you don't, you'll slip into a grayout
and then you'll be knocked cold com-
pletely. And the g anvils keep dropping
on us, g after g alter g... .

In two minutes we're going 6000
miles an hour, the booster engines drop
off and this stripped-down tin can of

ours keeps building toward peak veloc-
ity . . . we hit it, 25,000 mph . . . we
almost black out. . .

And then all those g anvils are gone
and the noise has shut up and the only
thing holding us to our seats are the
straps, because we're lighter than a
couple of soap bubbles. Zero gravity. I
check the instrument panel and take a
slug of o. j. from the squeeze bottle and
tum and grin at Vanya. He grins back.
We're on our way. The First Men
The Moon.

Is hard to stay formal when you're
cooped up in a thing like this, and
there's not too much to keep us busy
right now, all the automatic gizmos are
ticking along A-OK, so pretty soon we
begin to loosen up and talk.

He rubs my fur the wrong way when
he calls me an African, but I can see he
doesn’t mean any harm by it, he's just
trying to tell me that one of their big
Russky poets, sort of like their Shake-
speare, was part African, this Pushkin
cat. I tell him that’s real fine, I bet he
was a swinger. Then he asks me if I'm
the son of a slave. That tickles me so
much it makes me hugh out loud—

shows he's got U.S. history all tele-
scoped into a few years—and 1 tell him,
no, but my greatgreat-granddaddy was
a slave. He nods his head and says, "My
father's father was a serf.”

"That kind of breaks the ice, and pret-
ty soon I'm asking him where he’s from,
what part of Russia. He says “I mot
Russian, Johngenry. 1 from what Rus-
sians call Gruziya, what my people call
Sakartvelo. You call it, 1 think, Georgia.”

That really cracks me up. "You, too?

"You grow any cotton over there
in your Georgia, Vanya? Any corn or
tobacco?”

He says, “Corn, tobacco, yes. Cotton,
no. Also oranges and lemons, like your
California and Florida. Abo ta, al-
monds, silk, sugar beets, wine!”

“What part of Georgia you come
from? You a farm boy?”

He shakes his head. “From city, big
capital. Tbilisi, what you call Tifis.
Don't that beat all. I'm from the
capital of Georgia, 100.”

He smiles. “From my home comes
Dzhugashvili."

"You don't say. That some kind of

He laughs.

“Well, why didn't you say so in the

And thar's the way it goes, the first
few hours out from Earth, until that bad
time comes, that first rcal bad bad time.

Now, the big problem on a trip like

fledgling legal aide dru hart is cali-
fornia personified—from her back-to-
nature bent to her passion for baseball

THE CALIFORNIANS, wrote O. Henry 60 years ago, are
not merely inhabitants of a state—they’re a race of
people; and one of the loveliest specimens of that
species is 19-year-old September Playmate Dru Hart.
In transition from the leisurely pace of growing up
in the San Fernando Valley to the rush and respon
sibility of her new life as a career girl in Los Angeles,
Dru manifestly embodies the effervescent enthusiasm
and vitality O. Henry attributed to the denizens of
that swinging state. Whether at a ball game in
Chavez Ravine (she's a selfadmitted baseball nut)
or in the course of her hectic days as personal secre-
tary to prominent Los Angeles attorney William
Anderson, Miss September enjoys both with a native-
Californian gusto. Dru—"It's short for Drucilla

—also digs such mixed-media recreation as rock "n"
roll, surfing and waterskiing with the endlesssum-
mer set. Her notably informal speech pattern fur-
ther places her firmly in the tunedin generation:
“Without making a big thing out of it, I guess I do
try to groove to the fun side of life as much as
possible. But, at least for me, it doesn’t take a chem-
ical or even surroundings like the Sunset Strip to
flip me out. Unless the Dodgers have a big home

As a legal secretary, Dru Hart takes her varied respon-
sibilities sericusly- whether locating a dusty lawbook,
receiving last-minute instructions from her boss or carry-
ing necessary files to the Los Angeles County Courthouse.

Days at the courthouse are especially busy, but Dru likes them
best. "The greatest por! about my job," she says, “is thot every
case is different, so the work never gets routine. Law is still pretty
much of a mystery lo me—but it's o gos." Briefcase in tow, she
often spends her time running errands between the office and the
courtroom—interrupted only for a quick sandwich or a dash Io the
drinking fountain. Because of her active work weeks, Dru reserves
Saturdays and Sundays strictly for pleasure, particularly baseball.

and her sister Lynn rummage through the record collection—
mostly rhythm and blues—and settle down for a long musical

session with Cokes and conversation. “Lynn and | have become
much closer lately,” says Miss September, “more like friends

new suit, Dru relaxes briefly with Coco, the family poodle, until
fellow Dodgers fan Rick arrives to take her to Chavez Ravine.

came to town when I was nine—I spend most of my warm-weather week-
ends on camping trips with friends. We usually split for a place I dis
covered with my lamily—a long, beautifully clear lake called the Cachuma
Reservoir about a hundred miles up the coast. We sleep overnight on the
banks and then hike up into the hills. You're so completely detached from
the city, it's easy to imagine how isolated the first settlers must e felt.”
Dru currently maintains a small aparunent in Van Nuys, halfway between
her family’s home and Los Angeles, but she's looking for a larger place in
A. “to fill with big bright paper furniture, plastic cushions and a huge
sterco system.” Although she's satisfied at the moment with her carcer as
a lawyer’s girl Friday, she says she might abandon the staid surroundings
of law offices and courtrooms for something more glamorous. “IE fashion
photographers weren't quite so obsesed with tall, emaciated girls,” says
Dru, “Vd like to try my luck at modeling. And I'm turning on to act-
ing, too. For some time, I've thought about joining a little theater
group; I wish now that I'd taken some dramatic training in school—
it would help. But I'll have to see how things turn out when 1 move to
L. A.” With what Dru has going for her, things should turn out just fine.

Sporting a souvenir pennant
provided by Rick, Dru rivets
her attention on the progress
of the game (top}—and, like
any good fan, reflects the
team’s changing fortunes in
her reactions. “I get really in-

Rick that he's lost the bet

howto be a son of a beach and shore up the inner man

SEPTEMBER HATH not only 30 days but also the swectest
tasting, most enjoyable clambakes of the whole year. Men
who entertain are ready to toast the fact that the gnats have
fled, the weekend traffic jams have been unraveled and the
teeming shores are now unteemed. The best and timeliest
way we know of celebrating is to cruise to a deserted cove,
light up a beach fire and place on the glowing coals bundles
of softshell clams. live lobsters, split chickens, golden corn
on the cob and potatoes lavishly rubbed with butter. The
merry quintet of foods that make up the modern shore dinner
is reminiscent of pre-Puritan Indian parties that, tradition
has it, glorified the end of the summer's harvest with a whole
day's catch of seafood. It was steamed over whitehot stones
nd seaweed, Intended as a sacrificial offering to tribal gods,
the heaping feast was usually rescued before it was completely
incinerated and went instead into the bellics of heap-big
chiefs.

"The guiding principle of any outdoor shore dinner is
expressed in the simple words fire power. It can be employed
in a number of ways. One is the imu, which is Hawaiian
for the holc-in-theground approach. It involves not only fire
power but also muscle power and is still practiced on a sur-
prising number of beaches up and down the coast line. To
manage it properly, you must be the sort of man who can
unerringly tell the difference between nonexploding rocks and
the type of shale rocks that do pop when heated, because
they contain water. You arrive at your site carrying shovel,
pickax, rake and tarpaulin, The men in your shore party are
divided into squads. One digs a saucer-shaped pit at a point
comfortably removed from the high-tide mark. Another leaps
about, gathering seaweed or other nonbitter leaves such as sassa-
fras or grape. A third combs the beach, gathering dry logs or

"There's a new breed of New Englander
that has discovered a more modern ap-
proach, and it’s as simple as this: You
use portable grills or, if the party is held
on your own patio, your own barbecue
equipment; an outdoor stone or brick fire-
ace is perfect. Build a double layer of
coal fire and, when the charcoal begins
to turn gray, take the ingredients for the
dambake—wrapped i idual. porti

coals. 1n an hour or less, your dambake is

combers you're entertaining and he'll fill
suitable pot (your own or one that he
furnishes) with all ingredients scrupulous-
ly tailored to your own seafood fancies. If
you want to include shrimp or baby blu
fish, to use sausage instead of chicken or
substitute yams for white potatoes, he'll
satisfy your whims and deliver the com-
plete feast-in-a-pot to your station wagon,
cruiser, patio or terrace. All you supply is
the fire and a brigade to carry those end-

Outdoor hosts with sensitive noses
tuned to the pervading aromas of
grilled steaks and chops all summer long
will notice that at an alfresco shore dinner
all the sweet fragrances of dams, lobster,
chicken, corn and potatoes are trapped
inside the aluminum foil or under the lid
of the clam cooker. Eventually they're set
free; but during their en a culi-

THE EDUCATED
EXECUTIVE

DESPITE TODAYS EMPHASIS ON SPECIALIZATION,
IT IS TRUER THAN EVER THAT THE LADDER TO THE
UPPER ECHELONS IS BASED ON THE LIBERAL ARTS

ACCORDING TO TIME-HONORED (if not entirely reliable) Horatio Alger tradition, almost
any ambitious young man, with a lot of good fortune, could quickly reach the top of
the ladder in the business world. The principal ingredient in the formula for success
was luck: a careening carriage being pulled wildly along a street by a team of run-
away horses—and, of course, inside the carriage, the terrified, nubile daughter of a
multimillionaire. The young man needed only to fling himself on the horses’ harness
and, by dint of courage and brawn, bring beasts, carriage and the terrified, nubile
daughter to a safe halt just short of

“My hero! You have saved my life!" the lovely damsel would breathe in gratitude.
“I shall see that my father rewards you!”

Soon afterward, our hero would find himself happily and wealthily ensconced as—
at the very least—a vice-president in one of the tycoon's giant companies and married,
equally happily, to the tycoon’s daughter.

I have no way of knowing how many—if any—Horatio Alger-style success stories
were actually recorded in the history of American business. Certainly, the aspiring
executive of today would have an extremely hard time trying to make his mark by wait-
ing for a runaway Cadillac to pass him on Madison Avenue, Wacker Drive or Wilshire
Boulevard. These days, reaching the upper rungs of the ladder of corporate success is
hardly a matter of luck. Few, if any, of our modern-era business executives are born.
Virtually all of them are made—in the sense that they are produced by various
processes of education, training and experience.

Fortune magazine, which has established an enviable reputation among business-
men for its intensive coverage of the business world, has, at various times, sought to
determine the qualities that make the nation's executives. I recall one survey con-
ducted by the magazine that was aimed at gauging the level of education among
executive personnel. In the course of the study, questionnaires were submitted to the
chairmen, presidents, vice-presidents and other top-level executives of more than 800
U. S. companies. Results indicated that, of the 1700 upper-bracket management men
responding, two out of every three were college graduates and one fourth of the remain-
der had at least some undergraduate training.

Impressive as these statistics might scem—and they do reflect a very high propor-
tion of college graduates in the ranks of top management—a similar study made more
recently, but among a smaller group of business leaders, showed that the proportion of
college graduates was even higher: around 85 percent in this particular sampling. The
educational qualifications of U. S. business executives are even more striking when some
additional facts are considered. As Fortune pointed out, less than two percent of all
Amcrican male college graduates have made Phi Beta Kappa. But in the upper strata
of U.S. business management, the ratio of @BKs is five times greater than this:

Nearly ten percent of the men holding top-level executive positions are entitled to sport

BK keys on their watch chains. And among the men who are at or near the a pex of
the business pyramid, some five percent made the dean’s list, graduated cum laude or
better or were chosen as valedictorians during their college careers, Eleven percent of
these top executives were members of academic societies while attending college.
Charting the educational-attainment levels of younger executives through the years
from 1900 to the present day, one is struck by the steady and unwavering upward curve.
The conclusions are inescapable. The modern-day bu

a pictorial preview of the cinematic
loveltes who beautify the upcoming
barbra streisand musical

"Tui MoNTH in New York, just a few blocks
from where it all began four and a half years
ago, Columbia Pictures world-premicres its
Jong-heralded film adaptation of the hit musical
Funny Girl. The poignant story of comedienne-
singer Fanny Brice's ill-fated love for gambler
Nicky Arnstein and her subsequent rise to
fame in the Twenties, Funny Girl combines
the potent talents of Omar Sharif and super-
songbird Barbra Streisand in a screen-debut
replay of her star-making role on Broadway.
In addition to the much-publicized kissing
scene between the ancestrally incompatible
stars, much of Funny Girl's footage is devoted
to the lavish stage spectaculars that were the
trademark of Florenz Ziegfeld, whose Follies
made Miss Brice an international star. Pro-
ducer Ray Stark (who just happens to be mar-
ried to Miss Brices daughter, Frances) and
director William Wyler—trying his hand at a
musical for the first time—have created a stun-
ning celluloid version of the Follies; in keep-
ing with Ziegfeld's own specifications, Funny
Girl's chorines are as statuesque and zs cx-
uavagantly endowed as were their predecessors
in the original lineup. In this exclusive
PLAYBOY pictorial, the glamorous girls of Fun-
ny Girl reveal themselves as more than capa-
ble of making the Twenties roar once again.

Kathy Mortin (opposite page) attended the Sorbonne in Paris for three years, during
which time she modeled houfe couture for such French mogozines as Elle and Poris-
Match. Finding clothing to grace her 5'10", 36-23-37 dimensions had been o
problem for Miss Mortin until recently, when she began designing her own fashions.
“I do semirevealing high styles—slits to the waist, bockless dresses; that sort of thing
works well for toll women. And,” she adds, “I would very much like a coreer in

PLAYBOY INTERVIEW (continued from page 96)

for so many years that any advanced civil-
ition could have received the emissions
long ago. So in the fi ysis, we really
don't have much choice in this matter;
they're either going to contact us or they're.
not, and if they do we'll have nat

say about their benevolence or malevolence.
iven if they prove to be malevolent,
their arrival would have at least one usc-
ful by-product in that the nations of the
carth would stop squabbling among them-
selves and forge a common front to defend
the planet. 1 think it was André Maurois
who suggested many years ago that the
best way to realize world peace wound be to
stage a false threat from outer space; it's
not a bad idea. But 1 certainly don't be-
lieve we should view contact with extra-
terrestrial life forms with foreboding, or
hesitate to visit other planets for fear of
what we may find there. If others don't

contact us, we must contact them; it's our
destiny.

PLAYBOY: You indicated earlier that in-
telligent life is extremely unlikely else-

where within our solar system. Why?
KUBRICK: From what we know of the
other planets in this system, it appears im-
probable that intelligence exists, because
of surface temperaunes and atmos
pheres that are inhospitable to higher
life forms. Improbable, but not impossi-
ble. I will admit that there are certain
tantalizing dues pointing in the other
direction. For example, while the con-
sensus of scientific opinion dismisses the
possibility of intelligent life on Mars—as
opposed to plant or low orders of organ-
ic life—there are some eminently respect-
able dissenters. Dr. Frank B. Salisbury,
profesor of plant physiology at Utah
iversity, has contended in a
study in Science magazine that if vege-
tation exists on a planet, then it is logi-
Gil that there will be higher orders of
life to feed on it. "From there,” he
writes, "it is but one more step— granted,
a big one—to intelligent beings.”
Salisbury also points out t
ber of astronomers have observed strange
flashes of light, possibly explosions of
great magnitude, on Mars’ surface, some
of which emit douds; and he suggests
that these could actually be nuclear.
explosions. Another intriguing facet of
Mars is the peculiar orbits of its twin
satellites, Phobos and Deimos, first
covered in 1877—the same year,
demially, that Schiaparelli discovered
his famous but sill elusive Martian
“canals.” One eminent astronomer, Dr.
Josif Shklovsky, chairman of the depart-
ment of radio astronomy at the Shtern-
berg Astronomical Institute in Moscow,
has propounded the theory that both
moons are satellites
launched. by Martians thousands
of years ago in an effort to escape the

the

ise dying surface of their planet. He bases

this theory on the unique orbits of
the two moons, which, unlike the 31
other satellites in our solar syste
faster than the revolution of their host
planet. The orbit of Phobos is also de-
ng in an inexplicable manner
and dragging the satellite. progressively
closer to Mars’ surface. Both of these cir-
cumstances, Shklovsky contends, make
sense only if the two moons are hollow,
Shklovsky believes that the elites
are the last remnants of an extinct an-
cient Martian civilization; but Professor
Salisbury goes a step further and sug-
gests that they were launched within
the past hundred years. Noting that the
moons were discovered by a relatively
small-power telescópe in 1877 and not
detected by a much more powerful tele-
scope observing Mars in 1862—when the
planet was appreciably nearer carth—he
asks: “Should we attribute the failure of
1862 to imperfections in the existing tele-
scope, or may we imagine that the sat-
ellites were launched into orbit between
1862 and 187 There are no answers
here. of course. only questions, but it is
fascinating speculation. On balance, how-
ever. I would have to say that the weight
of available evidence dictates
ligent life on Mars.
PLAYBOY; How about pos
the probabilities, of intelligent life on the
other planeis?
KUBRICK: Most scientists and astronomers
rule out life on the outer planets since
their surface temperatures are thousands
of degrees cither above or below zero
and their atmosphere would be poisonous.
T suppose it’s possible that life could
evolve on such planets with, say, a liquid
ammonia or methane base, but it doesn’t
apy cel. As Venus goes,
the Mariner probes indicate that the sur-
Tace remperanue of the planet is ap-
proximately 800 degrees Fahrenheit, which
would deny the chemical basis for mo-
lecular development of life. And there
could be no indigenous intelligent life on
because of the total lack of
—no life as we know i
any case: though D suppose that intelli-
gent rocks or crystals, or statues, with
silicone life base are not really impossi-
ble, or even conscious gascous matter or
swarms of sentient electric particles. You'd
get no technology from such creatures, but
if their intelligence could control. matter,
why would they need it? There could be
however, even re-
motely humanoid—a form that would
appear to be an eminently practicable
iversal life prototype.
PLAYBOY: What do you think we'll find on
the moon?
KUBRICK: | think the most ex
pect about the moon is that if alien races
have ever visited earth in the remote past
and left artifacts for man to discover in
the future, they probably chose the arid,

nothing about them,

ting pros

airless lunar vacuum, where no deteriora-
tion would take place and an object could
exist for millennia. It would be inevitable
that as man evolved technologically, he
would reach his nearest satellite and the
aliens would then expect him to find their
calling card—perhaps a message of greet-
g, a cache of knowledge or simply a
cosmic burglar alarm signaling that an-
other race had mastered space flight. This,
of course, was the centr ion of 2001.

Bur an equally fascinating question is
whether there could be anether race of
intelligent life on earth. Dr. John Lilly,

has amassed consi
ble evidence pointing, to the possibility
the batilenosed dolphin may be as
intelligent as or more intelligent than man.
[Sce Deep Thinkers in rLavuoy, August
1968—Fd.] He bases this not only on its
brain size—which is larger than man’s and
with a more complex cortex—but on the
fact that dolphins have evolved an exten-
sive language. Lilly is currently attempt-

er planets, Of course, if the dolphins are
really intelligent, theirs is obviously

nontechnological culture, since without
an apposable thumb, they could never
create artifacts, Their intelligence might
also be on a totally different order than
man’s, which could make communica-
tion additionally difficult. Dr. Lilly has
written that “It is probable that their
intelligence is comparable 10 ours, though
in a very strange fashion . . . they may
have a new class of lae brain so d

devoted to creating works of poetry or
devising absit mathematical concepts,
and they could conceivably share a tele-
pathic communication to supplement their

high-frequency underwater language.
What is particularly interesting is that
dolphins appear to have developed a
concept of altruism; the stories of ship-
wrecked sailors rescued by dolphins and
carried to shore, or protected by them
gainst sharks, are by no ns all old
wives’ tales. But Fm rather. disturbed by
some recent developments that indicate
not only how we may treat dolphins but

on other planets. The Navy, impressed by
the dolphin's apparent intelligence, is re-

type enemy submarine. These experiments

fiction By DONALD E. WESTLAKE
WHEN THE ALARM CLOCK woke Ralph Stewart that morning,
there was a diaphragm in the bed. Karen's, of course. Look-
ing at it, Ralph wondered if she knew it was no longer with
her. No, probably not. Had the week at her mother's made
her forgetful?

From the kitchen, Karen called, "Ralph! You getting up?"

“Sure. sure," Ralph said. He sat there, looking at it. She
must think it was still with her. When she discovered it was
gone, what a moment that would be.

"Ralph! Breakfast is ready and you're going to be late
for work!”

“Sure, sure.” Chuckling to himself, Ralph wrapped it in a
Kleenex and tucked it away in the drawer of the night table
on Karen's side. ‘Then he padded off to brush his teeth.

Alter 2 week away, Karen was pleased to be back in her
own kitchen again, though that wasn't what made her smile

but he hadn't said a word about it, And he'd taken it away

with him. Karen paled. Could it be? But there was no other
expla: She'd been away for a week and Ralph must

have thought it belonged to somebody else.
Who?

Ralph came into the apartment a little after six with a
small smile already tugging at his lips. What would she say?
She said. “Oh, there you are.” Coldly.

To answer these questions, we conducted a two-
year study of the morals and mores on 25 American campuse
—specially selected 10 present a national cross section. We cor-
responded with faculties at these schools and then checked
with knowledgeable students—to discover both the official pol-
icy and the unofficial reality. We studied the limitations and
opportunities presented by each school’s location (its proximity
to the happy hunting grounds of other schools and of nearby
metropolitan arcas) the male-female ratio and whether the
coeds are mostly swingers or are only interested in the capture
degree—or a husband.

The results of this original rescarch are shown on the accom-
panying chart. The 25 schools listed are numbered in descending
order of permissiveness: the number-one school, the University
of Wisconsin, being clenly for those who are hedonistically
ebullient, while number 25, Bob Jones University, is for those
who are less responsive to cirthly matters.

Our representative cross section includes every type of school

gated and coed), as well as every major demographic ar

s guide to academe

The chart'e categories are intended as a descriptive primer
and offer the undergrad, grad student or graduate an oppor-
tunity to determine which schools arc populated by like-minded
souls, whatever his personal predilections may be, The column
headed “Official Attitude” rates the general posture of the
administration. (open-minded, cautious or sti) and its pari
tab rules. Because these characteristics are open to subjective
evaluations—visiting hours are more often intended to placate
parents than to coerce their kids—we chose to combine the
two variables and present our overall impression of each
school's official position regarding a student's social and socia-
bility rights. A leer grade was chosen in a spirit of tur
being fair play.

A thorough perusal of the chart will provide the campus
characteristics that are never found in college guides or cata
logs. Undergrads who can't fully utilize the information by
transferring from one school 10 another might at least make
one or two enlightened side wips during their academic carcers.
Knowledge, after all, is power.

Alumni may be grateful for or rueful about their collegiate
pasts—or decide they were born too soon to make the non-
academic most of their higher education. In which case, they
may now become unofficial guidance counselors of the kind
colleges somehow don't provide. (chart overleaf)

I have for years been trying
to emulate, never with much
success, once observed in his
journal that his neighbors in
Concord "sometimes appear to
work themselves into a state
of excitement over remarkably
Tittle.”

As nearly as I can make out,
in 1845, when Thoreau had his
pad at Walden Pond. the people of Con-
cord lost their cool only over an out
break of scarlatina or canker h—and
then never for long. Whats more, the

enough. The witches had all been hy-
gicnically disposed of 150 years before
—and, besides, that was in Salem,
Massichuseus. During the recent un-
pleasintness in Washington in thc
1950s—a period most of us seem as
forgetful of as the Germans are of
Nazism—l was having a lively little
discussion about Senator Joe McCarthy
with a lady from Wisconsin. “1 really
don't know much about him,” the lady
said. “We're from the northern part of
the state, you know.”

But back to Comrade Thoreau. It is
true that he was once thrown in the
pokey in Concord for nonpayment of
taxes; but it was only overnight, and
he got back to Walden Pond in plenty
of time to pick himself a pail of huckie-
berries for supper, | have never spent
the night in jail—for nonpayment of
taxes, anyway—but the sessions I've had
with the friendly folks from Internal
Revenue have always left me in such a
state that I couldn't possibly keep any-
thing on my stomach except a filth or
so of Irish whisky.

Now, the village near which I eke out

We have also come out for democratic
tooth decay; and now that fluoridation
has been defeated, people without civ-

much suspicion as Timothy Leary and
his cohorts when they were carrying on

Now that Leary has moved to San
Francisco, the estate has been turned
over, for the summer anyway, to the
Boy Scouts, which is just about as Amer-
ican as you can get. The move to get
rid of Leary was led by the Reverend
James Dandy, an Episcopalian who is
always preaching sermons on "God Is

PLAYBOY: Although flying saucers are fre-
quently an object of public derision, there
has been a good deal of serious discussion
in the scientific community about the
possibility that UFOs could be alien space-
craft. What's your opinion?

KUBRICK: The most significant analysis
of UFOs I've seen recently was written
by L. M. Chasin, a French air force
gencral who had been a high-ranking
NATO olliccr. He argues that by any legal
rules of evide now sullicient

sources—astronomers, pilots, radar opera-
tors and the like—to initiate a serious and
thorough world-wide investigation of
UFO phenomena. Actually, if you ex
amine even a fraction of the extant testi.
mony you will find that people have been
sent to the gas chamber on far less sub-
stantial evidence, OF course, it’s possible
that all the governments in the world
really do take UFOs seriously and perhaps
are already engaging in secret study proj-
ects to determine their origin, nature and
intentions. If so, they may not be disclos-
ing their findings for few that the public
would be alarmed—the danger of cul-
tural shock deriving from confrontation
with the unknown which we discussed

earlier, and which is an clement of 2001,
when news of the monolith's discovery on
the moon is suppressed, But I think even
the two percent of sightings that the Air
Force's Project Blue Book admits is un-

explainable by conventional means should
dictate a serious, scarching probe. From
all indications, the current. Government-

authorized investigation at the Univer-
sity of Colorado is neither serious nor
searching.

One hopeful sign that this subject may
st be accorded the serious discus-
it deserves, however, is the belated
but exemplary conversion of Dr. J. Allen
Hynek, since 1948 the Air Forces con-
sultant on UFOs and currently chairman
of the astronomy department at North-
western. University. Hyn
official capacity pooh-poohed UFO sight-
ings, now believes that UFOs deserve top-
prionty attention—as he wrote in PLAYBOY
[December 1967]—and even concedes that
the existing evidence may indicate a pos

sible connection with extraterrestrial life.
He predicts: “I will be

iprised if an in-
tensive study yields nothing. To the con-
trary, E think that mankind may be in for
the greatest adventure since dawning hu-
man intelligence turned outward to con-
template the universe.” 1 agree with him.
PLAYBOY: If flying saucers are real, who
or what do you think they might be?

KUBRICK: I don't know. The evidence
proves they're up there, but it gives us
very little clue as to what they are.
Some science-fiction writers theorize half-
seriously that they could be time shuttles

credence to that suggestion, It's also pos-
sible that they are perfectly natural. phe-
nomena, perhaps chain lightning, as one
American science writer has suggested;
though this, again, docs not explain some
of the photographs taken by reputable
sources, such as the Argentine navy

On the other hand, there are some

186 genetic results that can give wings to

the mind and enlarge perception beyond
its present evolutionary capacities.

Actually, up to now, perception on
the deepest level has really, from an
evolutionary point of view, been detri
mental to survival; if primitive man had
been content to sit on a ledge by his
cave absorbed in a beautiful sunset or a
complex cloud configura he might
never have exterminated his rival species
—but neither would he have achieved
mastery of the planet. Now, however,
man is faced with the unprecedented
tion of potentially unlimited material
1 technological resources at his disposa
tremendous iount of leisure time.
At last, he has the opportunity to look both
within and beyond himself with a new
perspective—without endangering or im-
peding the progress of the species, Drugs,
intelligently used, can be a valuable guide
to this new expansion of our consciousness.
Bur if employed just for kicks, or to dull
aiher than to expand perception, they
an be a highly negative influence. There
should be fascinating drugs available by
2001; wh; ke of them will be
the crucial question.

PLAYBOY: Have you ever used LSD or
other so-called | consciousness-expanding
drugs?

KUBRICK: No. I believe that drugs are
basically of more use to the audience
than to the artist. I think that the illu-
sion of oneness with the universe, and
absorption with the significance of every
object in your environment, and the per-
vasive aura of peace and contentment is
not the ideal state for an artist. It tra
quilizes the creative personality, which
thrives on conflict and on the clash and
ferment of ideas. The artist's transcend-
ence must be within his own work; he
should not impose any artificial barri
ers between himself and the mainspring
of his subconscious. One of the things
that’s turned me against LSD is that all
the people I know who use it have a
peculiar inability to distinguish between
things that are really interesting and
ing and things i

duces on a "good" trip. They seem to
completely lose their critical faculties
and disengage themselves from some of
the most stimulating arcas of life. Per-
ps when everything is beautiful, noth-
ing is beautiful.

PLAYBOY: What stage do you believe to
day's sexual revolution will have reached
by 90012
KUBRICK: Here again, it's pure specula-
ion. Perhaps there will have been a
present trends, and the
pendulum will swing back to a kind of
nco-puritanism. But it’s more likely that
the socalled sexual revolution, mid-
wifed by the pill, will be extended.
Through drugs, or perhaps via the sharp-
ening or even mechanical amplification
of latent ESP functions, it may be pos-
sible for each partner to simultaneously
experience the sensations of the other;
or we may eventually emerge into. poly-
morphous sexual beings, with the male
ad female components blurring, merging
and interchanging. The potentialities for
exploring new arcas of sexual experience
are virtually boundless.

PLAYBOY: In view of these trends, do you
think romantic love may have become
unfashionable by 20017

KUBRICK: Obviously, people are finding it
increasingly easy to have intimate and

fulfilling relationships outside the con-
cept. of romantic love—which, in its
present form, is a relatively recent acqui-

sition, developed at the court of Eleanor
of Aquitaine in the 12th Century—but

THE EDUCATED EXECUTIVE
(continued. from page 154)

of liberalarts subjects made my n
more flexible, more receptive to n

more readily aware of changing circum-
stances and, at the same time, more con-
vinced of what constitutes real and lasting

flatly that I consider my liberalarts ed-

ucation to have had far greater overall
importance than any of the purely tech
nical or professional subjects 1 studied.

I do not doubt that what I have said
will appear to border on heresy for
those who still cling to the concept of
the business executive as a superspecialist,
n well aware that there are many
nies that want th
be accountants, their production experts
to be production experts, and so on—and

amn Aristotle and Zwingli.
Now, none of this is imended as a
at business departments or manage
ment facultics in our universities and
colleges. Both are excellent, generally
conceded to be the best in the world.
My point is that there has been a grow-
ing tendency toward specialization at the
expense of broader subjects that not only
expand the horizons of the students’ minds
but make them better human beings and,
in the long run, better managers.

I particularly like what John Ciardi
has written in his essay “An Ulcer, Gen
uk , Is an Unwritten Poem.” Ciardi
argues: "Let [a man] spend too much
of his life at the mechanics of pract
ty and either he must become something
less than a man or his very mecha
efficiency will become impaired |
frustrations stored up in his in

for having been jilted.”

Happily, there appears growing evi-
dence that the trend toward producing
superspecialized executives is being
slowed or even reversed. There seems
proof that some of the nation’s business
leaders are recognizing the need for more
diversified education of executive peron-
nel, Take, for example, the survey con-
A. Bond,

Sixty six big-business
were asked to give their opinions re
garding the educational requirements
they considered essential for top-level
executives. Nearly one third of the r
spondents said they believed an educ
tion in the liberal arts or humanities
provided the best background—and this
third did not suggest that any secondary
field of emphasis wa
many of the chi secutive offic
terviewed believed that basic liberalarts
courses modified. by secondary reference
to business gave the tyro executive. the
best grounding. The third-largest group

is needed. Almost as

held that liber:
by a secondary emphasis on science
and/or engineering would provide the
business executive with the best and
most helpful. educatioi ckground.

As if this were not sufficient to indi-
cate the shift in the business education
wind, witness the findings of two recent
major studies that were conducted by
the Ford Foundation and the Carnegie
Corporation. The results of the two
studies were published jointly and, al
though there were some areas of dis-
agreement, one conclusion stood out
sharply. Both studies strongly recom-
mended that business education should
be based solidly on the liberal arts.

I have discussed the problem of the
narrowness of the young executive's
education with more than a few busi
ness leaders with whom I
ed. Almost without exception, they—and
this includes those hoklovers of a past
cra who themselves received little or no
formal education beyond grade school—
agree that the executive whose mind has
been tained for
entation is only ha

The men who a

tually head the na
tion’s largest corporations appreciate the
importance of the humanities in the edu
cation of young men who hope to achieve
success in business. Several major compa
nies have even sponsored programs under
which their more promising young execu-

tives could expand their cultural horizons
by taking liberal-arts courses on company
time and at company expense.

One of the first of these programs
was launched by the Bell Telephone
Company in 1953, when a group of the
firm's executives attended a two-semester

course at the Institute of Humanistic
Studies at the Univer

y of Pennsylvani
ave since followed suit,
and many colleges and universities have
developed special liberalarts courses for
executives. In addition, some corporati
have gone in for crash programs, sending
selected executives—not infrequenuy men
who are already on the upper rungs of
the corporate ladder—to seminars and
courses designed to increase their knowl-
edge and appreciation of matters cultural.

These comp stand that, al-
though he may have a string of degrees
after his name, the executive whose
education has been almost entirely pro-
fessional is not well equipped to under-
stand the broader social implications of
business. He is most likely a rather empty
man, whose sole concern im life, to the
point of obsession, is his job and the
struggle for advancement. Success becomes
the end in itself. It might surprise him
to learn that his one-track. preoccupation
lessens his chances for success.

I asure you that if I were contem-
plating the establishment of, say, a new
company or a foreign subsidiary, 1 would

not rely on an exceutive with single-
function orientation to conduct the n

‘The men 1 would choose for the task
would have to solve problems and make
decisions on the spot. Although they
might conceivably be weak in certain
technical areas. they would be well-
rounded individuals whose education had
enriched their intellect and judgment—
rather than merely providing them with
a degree of practical or technical know
how. Such has always been my policy.
and I am firmly convinced that it is
largely responsible for whatever successes
I have achieved during the course of my
business career,

believes a homosexual. relation-
“should be judged by the same cri-

ge—that is,

whether it is imended to foster a perma-
nent relationship of love.” Another Prot-
estant theologian, Norman Pittenger, has
said, “[Homosexuals| cannot be expected
to ‘give up sex’ altogether. And if it hap-
pens that one is dealing with a couple
who, so far as one can see, deeply and
truly love one another, it is pretty close
to spiritual homicide to separate them
2.27 Similar opinions ha
presed by such Koman Catholic theolo-
gians as Eduard Sclullebeec The
National Catholic Reporter recently stat-
ed editorially that “the homosexual is the
victim of a scapegoat mechanism and, in
this respect, there is no diff
tween antihomosexual feelings and the

been ex-

, and

nee b

feelings of anti-Semitism, anti-Negroism,
anti-Catholicism, etc.”

Dr. William Graham Cole, president
of Lake Forest College, sees the message
of both Old and New Testaments as
chiefly one of love and tolerance, and
says in “Sex and Love in the Bible":

What face does [the Christian
community] present to the world,
more especially to the sexual deviant?
Is it a fellowship of reconciliation, of
love and accepting forgiveness, or is il
made up of self-righteous Pharisees,
gossiping and judging and rejecting?
Does it surround the sinner with
hostility and threaten him with harm,
or does it welcome him into a com-
munity of those who know themselves
fo stand in need of forgiveness, who
cannot cast the first stone because
they. too, fall short of the demands
of a righteous God?

Until such time as the church,
clergy and people take seriously
once more the Gospel of Jesus
Christ. . . then the homosexual
- - - will turn elsewhere for help.
+++ The fact that [the] Holy Spirit
clearly speaks and works through
channels outside the church, re-
deeming and restoring [through
secular psychotherapy]. should serve
as a warning to the Christian com-
munily in its self-righteous pride.

CHRIST A HOMOSEXUAL

Recently, there have been many let
ters in The Playboy Forum discussing
homosexuality. The necd for compassion
for these people is dramatized by C
Hugh Montcfioi bridge, Fi

Jesus himself may have been homosexual.
He askel why Jesus remained unmar-
ried, when marriage was almost unive
sil in the Middle East of his time. Car
Momtehore suggested that the answer
might be that Jesus was “not by nature
the marrying sort.
Explaining that his suggestion was not
n irreverent one, he added:

n

This kind of speculation about the
nature of our Lord can be valuable
f it underlines, as 1 believe it does
here in a particularly vivid way.
how God in Christ identifies Himself
with the outsider and the outcast
from society.

fall casually into bed with another man.

I worked up my courage and went to
my husband, Through objective discus

He. too, had considered aticmpting to
find satisfaction with someone else, but
not because he didn't love me. In fact,
that very love had led him to place me
on a kind of pedestal and would not al-
low him to subject me to his desires. We
discovered that I, on the other hand.
could not abandon myself completely.
because I feared that to do so would
cheapen me in his eyes. We realized
that cach of us was hung up over a con-
cern for the opinion of the other.

Since making this discovery, we have
worked for complete freedom in our love-
making: it took a surprisingly short time
for both of us to feel free to suggest varia-
tions and to give both verbal and physical
expression to our impulses. We now enjoy
our sexuality 10 the fullest.

On the basis of our experience, I

red love and concern will afford
them pleasure far surpassing what is
available in an adulterous relationship.

ABORTION DOCTOR'S VIEWPOINT

To understand the attitude toward
abortion that I de over 30
as a general practi d abort
one must realize that the abortionist is
the man who's confronted by a wom
burdened with a pregnancy she does not
want. She knows she does not want it
and is determined to get rid of it, regad-
less of any religious or legal prohibitions
that might exist.

On the other hand. the relationship of
almost everyone else to the question of
bonion is on a holierthan-thow level
of authority, telling the pregnant wo
what she must do and forcing her to do
it at the point of a gun (the power of the
law). 1 wish these people could listen to
a woman begging, pleadix ng, even
tempting to force the abortionist to per-
form the operation

The abortionist is often
usurping God's authority as the giver
and taker of life. In medieval Europ
this attitude was used as a reason to foi
bid docto

n

ol this position: is it any less absurd to
forbid a doctor to terminate a pregnan-

able. To i: the fetus is a full-
fledged human being because has a

full set of genetic components and will
develop imo an infant if left alone is
simply a restatement of the soul argu-
ment in apparently scientific language.

Abortion is essentially the last stage
series of possible birth-control meas-
the first stage being abstention from
sex and the intermediate stages being the
use of various kinds of contraceptive. de
vices. Human beings are always producing
sperms and ova and making decisions
bout when to terminate their develop-
at. MI these cells are alive and all are
potential human beings. Thus, in my
view, abortion is no more wrong than the
© of celibacy. All of us are con-
t finding an answer to the
quesion of when a developing fetus
should properly be called a human being
full human rights. My own answer
this moment occurs when the fetus
is developed to the point where it is able
to breathe and to live separated from the
mother’s womb. It can be argued that
my position is purely a matter of perso
conviction based on my feelings for the
pregnant women involved and on my own
philosophical and religious views. This
argument would be correct; but, by the
same token, the conviction that the fetus
is human from the moment of conceptio
is equally arbiwary, eq

atter, Everyone is € to his own
belief in this matter, because none can be
scientifically or logically verified.

DEPOPULATION

Slowly, but not too slowly, it ruins the
lungs. There is no noise, no mess, as
there would be in a nuclear explosion.
"There is no chance, as there would be
in the employment of bacteriological re-
sources, that some persons might escape
by building up immunity.

It is the universality of this method
that gives it its greatest appeal. After
all, everyone must breathe. There is
no way to avoid the intake of polluted
air, except by stopping breathing. Of
course, if everyone could be counted on
to stop breathing for as little as half an
hour, the job could be done quickly and
efficiently. There would be no need to
bother with the laborious and expensive
process of air pollution.

But there would be a few spoilsports
who would refuse to cooperate. There
would be others who, despite their good
intentions, after years of breathing,
would find themselves hooked. Still oth-
ers might try to kick the habit, but
would backslide after experiencing the
iscomforts of withdrawal.

What, you ask, can I do to help?

Write to your stne and Federal rep-
resentatives and members of the Supreme
Court, pointing out that legislation forc-
ing you to install an antismog device on
your car is an infringement of your per-
sonal liberties. If you are hauled into

(continued from page 110)

court for failure to install such a device,
take the Fifth Amendment. Refuse to say
whether or not you have such a device.
And do not let anyone find out by looking
at your car. The Fourth Amendment, on
unreasonable searches and seizures, pro-
tects you from this.

Keep careful account of the voting
record of your Congressman. If he leans
toward Federal legislation to require in-
stallation of exhaust devices and other-
wise shows himself an opponent of air
pollution, do your best to see that he
not reelected. He is probably a Com-
munist or a dupe of the Communists, who
want to keep the human race going, to
have something they can make trouble for.

Now, finally, a quick look at water
pollution.

Until recent. years, efforts at water
pollution seemed to be making little or
no progress. With water covering seven
tenths of the earth, the magnitude of
the project discouraged all but the most
dedicated and stouthearted.

Liule by litde, however, the work has
gone forward. Results are beginning to
show. As one leading water polluter said
during a television. interview, “It has
been a long. hard struggle, but I think
we have turned the corner. Given con.
tinued support by an aroused citizenry,
l am confident we shall win."

ndustry, of course, spearheads the
drive, sending a vast tonnage of waste
matter into rivers, lakes and other wa-
terways. But the humblest individual
plays a part, adding his mite to the sew-
age that gathers volume as it goes from
house to house and at last, a raging tor-
rent, empties into the sca near some
populous bathing resort
As the houscwife finishes her laundry
dl empties her washing machine of the
, insoluble detergent,
she can rejoice in more than having the
family’s clothing clean. She is helping
pollute the water of the nearby E.
thus preventing the loss of no telling
how many man-hours, previously wasted
on the idle pursuit of fishing.

Do your bit with garbage and trash
Your own efforts, added to the good
work of huge pipes funneling sewage
to the ocean and barges dumping ra-
dioactive wastes, will, ere long, achieve
rc all after. Someday, even
ger bodies of water will be filled
with such quantities of waste that they
will be almost solid.

‘Then man can walk on water, which
hasn't been done for 2000 years.

"To sum up, with regard to elimi

Also alarming was the sweeping 7240

passed a crime-control bill that allows
wide latitude in the use of wire tapping

such means into court cases. Under the

Congressional mood “is against safeguard-

but for a ty, Furthermore, wi

lu recent months, there has been a

marked resurgence of activities by va
ous Congres commit-
tees, The venerable House Un-America
Activities Committee has been look:
into “the Communist instigation behi
Northern ghetto riots” and is
ploring the “infiltrated” D
League in Dallas, Representative J
Pool of Texas, one of the committee's
more fervi members, has also been
urging an investigation of the Students
for a Democratic Society, the largest na-
tional organization of the New Left
In addition, the energetic Congressman
Pool has called for a “preliminary in-
vestigation” of underground newspaper
“These smut sheets,” he said during
speech ar Yale last November, "are today’s
Molotov cocktails thrown at respecta
bility and decency in our mation. .
Responsible publishers know that fr
dom of speech can be lost if the First
Amendment is abused by the mudslingers
who tell one lie after another to destroy
those who oppose them." But this is just
rhetoric. Who would tke Pool serious!

The Liberation News Service, which pro-

vides material for much of the unde:

ground press, reported in November: “In
Dallas, the Southern Methodist University

S. D. S. chapter dissolved itself under the
heat of Pool’s attack last month, the
Dallas Draft Information Center was
illegally evicted from its office and Notes

student newspaper) was banned from ca

more, as a self-prodaimed champion of
“our beloved freedoms,” has proposed that
"Congress should deny funds to any uni-
versity that permits S. D.S. 10 have an

While Congressman Pool beats the
campus bushes for subversives, the Sen-

rights and antiwar groups. As The
York Times observed on October
1967, the chairman of the subcommit-

McKinley Dirksen of Illinois and Demo-
cratic liberal Birch Bayh of Indi.

The immediate focus of Eastland's
resolution was on the Chicago meet
of the National Conference of New Poli-
s at the Palmer House last September
Represented at that convention were
367 groups, from Dr. Martin Luther
King's Southern Christian Leadership
Conference and SANE to the Commu
nist Party, which, by the way, is a legal
organization. (And out of more than
2000 delegates to thar conference, only
seven registered as Communists.) Be
fore Eastland had his resolution to in-
vestigate, agents of the subcommittee
were at the conference; and when they
left. letters, files and other documents of
the participating groups disappeared

Anothe

Senate unit, John. MeClel-

in, among other expeditions, search to
determine whether the violence in the
ghettos has been “instigated and prec
tated by the calculated design of agitators,
militant activists or lawless elements.”
Are we at the start of a new period of
McCarthyism? Seven prominent religious
and civilliberties leaders sent a letter
10 Congress last spring expressing exactly
that fear. Among them were the late
Martin Luther King; Roger Baldw
founder of the American Civil Liber
Union; the Reverend John €. Bennett,
president of Union Theological Seminary:
Father Robert F. Drinan, S. J., dean of
Boston College Law School; Rabbi Mau-

id it represented “a clear and present
danger to our institutions” and “would
make a mockery of the Bill of Rights
and of our claims to stand for freedom
in the world.” The Senate voted to over-
le Truman's veto. One of the votes to

Among other provisions, the original act
set up a fiveman Subversive Activities

falls into one of those categories, the names
of all members will be publicly listed with

successfully against the adoption of this
end run around the Supreme Court, Con-
gressman John Culver of Iowa warned:

is most dangerous and inesponsible, be-
cause it may only sere to stifle dissent
—it may only serve to Kill expression
of controversial views in this nation. To
the extent that it denies the political vi-

ty and vigor of our own free
tions, then it dearly aids and abets the
Communist movement.”

When the measure came up in the
Senate for final adoption on December
1. only five Senators were in the cham-
ber, and this extraordinary piece of leg-

lation became law by a vote of three to
two. It may be significant to remember
that in cartier debate, Senator Dirksen told
his colleagues that the President had called
him to the White House and told him he
wanted the bill pa E
ator from Hlinois then raised the fag to
obscure the Constitution; "We are at a
time when we have 10 call a spade a spade
in this country. The time for fooling is
past. We have 475.000 youngsters and
Oldsers out in Vietnam. What do you
think they think when they read about
these things going on in the Senatc—
people trying to stop the Subversive Ac-
tivities Control Board from doing its
work?”

There arc further dangers to disent
the new legislation. As a group of
civihiberties lawyers, induding Melvin
Wulf of the American Civil Liberties
Union and William Kunstler, have point-
ed out: “The statute, as amended, is, to
put it conservatively, even more "at war
with the First Amendment’ than its
predecessor. For example, the definition
of a 'Communist-front organization’ has
been further ‘liberalized’ to provide that

nstitu-

ssed. The sonorou

an organization may be registered as a
"Communist-front. organization’ if it *
substantially directed, dominated or

controlled by one or more
a Communistaction organiz
(emphasis added). The aet previously
defined a ‘Communistfront organiza
tion’ as one that "Ps substantially di-
rected, dominated or controlled by a
Communistaction organization." '*

How can it be proved that one Com-
munist, who may well have hidden the
fact that he is a Communist, is "substan
tially” directing, dominating or con:
tolling your group? One key test, under
the new amendments, is whether your
organization is involved in "advocacy.
espousal and teaching of a creed or of
causes for which the Communist. move-
ment stands.” As Representative Culver
emphasized in his losing battle the
House, it would be quite possible for
"innocent organizations" to take posi
tions on matters of policy that im par
ticular don't deviate from those of
the Communist movement. “An organi

are apprehensive.

st as there is a precedent in Ameri-
can history for "relocation" camps, so
there is a chilling diversity of precedents
for the suppression of disent. From
1798 to 1800, the Alien and Sedition
Aas were in force, providing jail terms
of up to five years and fines of up to
$5000 for anyone who spoke or wrote
about Congress, the President or the
ederal Government “with intent to de-
fame them or bring them . . . into con-
tempt or disrepute.” Ostensibly designed
to protect the country fom subversion
by the French, with whom America's re-
lationships had deteriorated, the Alien
and Sedition Acts were really intended
by the Federalists in power to cripple the
opposition Republican Party of Thomas
Jefferson.

In the first four months during which
the laws were on the books, 21
paper printers, all of whom put out Re
publican. journals, were arrested. One
prominent Boston editor died as the result
of mistreatment in jail. Among many oth-
ers arrested was a Con . Matthew
Lyon of Vermont, who had written in a
letter that President John Adams had an

news-

“Oh, just whatever you can pronounce, Fred.’

“unbounded thirst for ridiculous pomp.
foolish adulation and selfish avarice.’
For that opinion, the Congressman was
sentenced to four months in a tiny, un-
heated cell in a Vermont jail and fined
$1000.

In revulsion against the Federalist
sweeping and arbitrary use of the acts.
the electorate defeated them in 1800 and
the new President, Thomas Jellerson,
doned all who had been convicted under

the laws, But throughout the 19th Cen-
tury, there were strong forces against

dissent both within and outside the courts.
In 1835, for instance, a mob advanced on
the Boston office of the Liberator
wspaper edited by William
and dragged him through
the streets at the end of a rope. And for
many years, abolitionists couldu't meet
in the city of New York without having
to cope with organized disturbances.

But Garrison and the other abolition-
ists not only persisted in dissent but also
resisted Jaws they considered an affront
to their consciences. On July 4. 1854.

agham, Massachusetts, held up a

required the turning over of runaway
slaves to their masters, He burned the
copy of the kaw publidly—a precedent of

cards, Other acis of resistance to the
Fugitive Slave Law provoked riots, di-
rect confrontations with Jaw-enforcement
officials on the streets and the snaiching
away of runaway slaves from Southern
masters who had gone North to claim
them.
here was also resistance to the Mexi-
n War, and Henry David ‘Thoreau was
jailed in 1846 for refusing to pay ta

but the 1918 act invited a return to the
ibitrary Srepression of 1798. In the
course of World War One, more than
2000 people—ineluding pacifists and So-
Gialists—were prosecuted, many for simply
speaking against the War. With the War
over, there were further abuses of the
Bill of Rights. In. Red Scare, Protessor
Robert K. Muray describes the start of
this next stage under Attorney General
^. Mitchell Palmer. On August 1,

“Ed never chases other women. He's too
fine, too decent, too old.”

Palmer established within the Justice
Department's Bureau of Investigation
“the so-called General Intelligence, or
miradical, Division. As its head, he ap-
pointed young J, Edgar Hoover, charging
him with the responsibility of gathering
nd coordinating all information concer

In that connection, it’s worth remem
bering the durable J. Edgar Hoover's
persistent attempts to link black militan-
cy, antiwar activiics and campus pro
test movements. with communism

his annual report to the Attorney
I dst January, Hoover asserted that
Communist Party leaders are "pleased

with the disturbances on campuses
the disruption of city life by war proest-
crs and riots in the gheuos." Pleased
they may be; but their direction of any
of these activities has never been
proved, in hard. fact, by the director of
the FBI nor anyone clse. Nonetheless, this
past May, Hoover went on to charge
recklessly that the New Left, typified by
Students for a Democratic Society, con-
stitutes “a new type of subversive, and
their danger is great.” As The Harvard
Crimson said in an editorial the sime
