South Toward Home. The flurry of Negro outrage that followed the murder in Memphis was conducted mostly by high-spirited youths-and was more than compensated for in solemn grief. As soon as he learned of the shooting, Atlanta's Mayor Ivan Allen Jr., one of the South's best-accredited white civil rights advocates, called Mrs. Coretta King-who only last January had undergone major surgery-and arranged a flight to Memphis. At the Atlanta terminal, Allen received word that King had died at the hospital, and he broke the news to the widow in the foyer...

It was started in 1957 as a paperbound book, publishing such unknown authors as Edward Albee, James Purdy, Samuel Beckett, Allen Ginsberg. In 1964, it was turned into a slick-paper magazine with striking art work and lots of color; its scatology is elegantly framed. With a circulation of some 160,000, the magazine recently changed from a bimonthly to a monthly...
