...rooming procedure was abandoned two years ago. Yet there were other incidents that clearly set the black students apart. Nancy Gist '69 said she "didn't expect to be accepted with open arms," but continuous questions from white students who wanted to understand "the secret workings of a black chick's mind" gave her the impression that she was at Wellesley not so much to study as to be observed by "middle class deb-types who had never seen an intellectually equal black...

...busted? Who can tell me, who can think back and tell me about the days before acid was invented? I know, for a fact, that every single American boy has at one time rolled up the sleeves of his teeshirt to look studlier as he walked downtown; that every chick has snuck up her hems in junior high school so somebody can take a good peek. America! You dumb ass stupid brutal beast! Why did you abandon us? We loved you, we really did, we might even fight in your stupid wars if you hadn't forbidden Elvis. Why didn...

...CHICK COREA: TONES FOR JOAN'S BONES (Vortex). There is a brilliant clarity, like tumbling diamonds, to the tones Pianist Corea polishes off here. His touch is firm and percussive, his ear tuned toward a definite, stirring pulse. In Litha he strings together quick, imaginative melodic fragments that are the mark of the alert modernist. When backing the other soloists (Joe Farrell, tenor; Woody Shaw Jr., trumpet), he spreads sprays of dazzling notes that support and enhance the horns' flights. In Tones for Joan's Bones, he displays a more reflective gleam by smoothly rolling the melody...

...THEATER OF CRUELTY. To demonstrate a new type of insulating foil, Union Carbide places a baby chicken in a small foil-lined metal box and then lowers it into a beaker of boiling water. Several long moments later, out pops the chick, frisky and unfried. The initial plunge is not exactly Grand Guignol, but it does provide a bit of a shock. A recent spot for American Motors shows a gang of men demolishing a competitor's car with sledge hammers. Who would admit to hating autos? Still, there is a certain undeniable thrill in seeing all that shiny metal...
