...huge school now in the long, pink building with seventeen-year-old bullet holes still pock-marking its walls. That day the fourth-graders had filled a bulletin board with a photo exhibit of Vietnamese children. A few pictures showed kids staring blankly at the camera, their flesh grotesquely disfigured by Dow's napalm, but most of the shots were of boys and girls dancing in a circle, making pungi sticks to trap U.S. soldiers, or working in the rice-fields. On top of the pictures was a strip of paper with the words, "Children are born to be happy...
...Magic Christian's promoters have topped their competition in substituting flesh (whether on Raquel's chest or Ringo's face) for substance. But if you'd like to get what the movie has to offer before it comes to TV (no more than a year), just drop a dime into a public urinal and watch someone...
...stuff" is flesh flicks, and the three middleaged, middle-class mothers constitute Maryland's defense against them. The last state to censor motion pictures in advance of distribution, Maryland pays the members of its Board of Motion Picture Censors between $4,000 and $4,500 a year each.

...Soviet writer, a human being made of flesh and blood, not a puppet to be pulled on a string." So wrote Andrei Voznesensky in a 1967 letter to Pravda protesting censorship. Pravda pigeonholed the letter, but it appeared in the West, and since then Russia's most brilliant young poet has been scarcely published in his own country, and he has repeatedly been refused permission to travel to the West. The author's latest play, Look Out for Your Faces, was in rehearsal for nine months while awaiting clearance from the Ministry of Culture...
...many discussions on cannibalism, attention has been given to human flesh as a source of quality protein. A 50-kg. man might yield 30 kg. edible muscle mass if well and skillfully butchered, and 30 kg. edible muscle would yield about 4.5 kg. of protein. Assuming quality protein requirements as 1 gm. per kilogram of body weight, this would provide one day's protein -equirements for approximately 60-cg. adults. One man, in other words, serves 60 skimpily. Reducing the man-a-day ration to a more realistic man a week, this would barely amount to 9 gm. quality...
