...made one ostensibly friendly gesture toward the Anguillans. In early March after Britain had declared the islands free, the candidates for Miss Statehood, none of whom was Anguillian, were shipped over to the small island for examination by its police. The Anguillian mood, however, was unreceptive, and the bikini-clad contestants were pelted with conch shells and driven back home...

...more panache. Sporting marigolds and sparking mischief, a group of 50-mostly students from nearby Antioch College-gathered in front of the main post office to protest the impending induction of James R. Wessner, 22, grandson-in-law of Cleveland Industrialist and Russophile Cyrus Eaton. Wessner was clad in a black Halloween "death" costume and toted a scythe-a grim tableau that found an almost exact duplicate in Des Moines. Nine young men turned in their draft cards in Cincinnati, after dipping them in a cup full of blood contributed by two Antioch students. When the group attempted to dissuade...

Then, during ten minutes of bravos...

To admit Britain now with all its economic ills and un-Eu-ropean ways of doing business would be to destroy the Common Market, he said. Europe and Britain are "incompatible." However, De Gaulle added generously, France would be glad to consider some form of second-class associate membership for Britain to "favor commercial exchanges...

What raises Gallo's girls above the level of genteel pornography is clearly visible at the moment in Manhattan's Graham Gallery. There sit, stand or recline ten of them, all in various voluptuous poses and assorted stages of undress. One, clad in a tank suit with a number "3" on its belly, perches on a revolving turnstile. Another, in what may or may not be a bikini top, cuddles on a brown floor rug. Still another, falling out of her low-necked dress, lounges against a lavishly embroidered sofa. The skin of each has the alabaster transparency...
