...time Hatcher won the nomination for mayor, a crude frame-up would have been too obvious. Krupa tried the ideological tack. He labeled Hatcher a Black Power extremist and, as the smear spread, it widened to Communist.

Joanie really did owe the poor dears of the D.A.R. a vote of thanks-for stumbling over her boobytrap. It seems that Joan had determined as long ago as May that the D.A.R. would refuse permission for her to use its 3,800-seat Convention Hall for a folk-singing peace-in, had quietly arranged with...
