...becoming a severe drain on the funds and enthusiasm of the peace groups, and by the fall of 1963 Tocsin was virtually dead. Last fall, after a year's gap, the Vietnamese crisis seemed to provide a rallying cry once again, and the peace forces regrouped under the banner of the Students for a Democratic Society, the organization responsible for last weekend's march...
