...kaleidoscopic colors of an oriental bazaar swirled through London's normally drab Heathrow Airport. Clutching bundles bulging with everything from jars of curry powder to television sets, turbaned men, sari-clad women and coffee-tinted youngsters stepped off planes from such diverse points as Cairo, Dar-es-Salaam and Athens. Most of their journeys began in Kenya, where they had sold their businesses at panic prices, paid scalpers' ransom rates for airline tickets and grabbed planes to any place that offered hope of a connecting flight to Britain. Thus last week, in a final, frantic stampede...
NEXT comes the heterosexual scene, with the man and woman clad only in shorts and panties--though not always in that order. After a few minutes of French kissing filmed at point-blank range (a two-story tongue can be terrifying), the woman's garment is removed, though the man's is not.

The city's rubble grew so high that German tanks were unable to roll over it. Through...
...county police were armed with warrants based on evidence turned up by hippie-clad agents who had been planted on the campus to mingle in Stony Brook's wide-open dormitories. The spies claimed they had taken part in a large LSD party in a dormitory lounge, witnessed many drug sales, mainly of marijuana but also of opium and mescaline. The university's supervision of the dorms was so lax, police charged, that a number of nonstudents seeking kicks had moved right in. Following agent-drawn maps of where suspects lived, surprised raiders barged into one room...
