...protest scheduled for Oct. 15 (see THE NATION). The day is supposed to be marked by class boycotts, mass rallies, teach-ins, the distribution of leaflets and doorbell ringing to mobilize both town and gown sentiment for ending the Viet Nam war.

Shots with specific meanings reoccur in a variety of contexts, and characteristic Baillie imagery-a dark horse, an unlit entryway-rearranges itself according to a child-like vision...
