...statement went further than that, to imply a bold definition of what it really means to strike for the original demands.

UNTIL this communal homicide took place, the two-way potential of drug trips was an ignored or largely uninvestigated fact. Only now are we beginning to realize that hip college students and intellectuals are not the only drop-outs and trip-takers. Only now do we begin to realize fully the alternatives that John Lennon and Mick Jagger, peaceful Woodstock and murderous Altamont, Christ and Satan represent in terms of the counter culture.

Until a couple of years ago, Mount Vernon was served by crank telephones and calls routed by two elderly operators who knew everyone in town. One townsman recalls: "They knew where everybody was and used to transfer calls if you were visiting somebody. Now we just have...
