...PLAYHOUSE (shown on Fridays). "Ju lius Monk's PLAZA 9" is an hour of one of America's most celebrated topical re views - with pokes at everything from le grand Charles to LSD...
Their womenfolk walk the cove trails without fear of rape, though perhaps not immune to seduction at early ages, and they don't depend on LSD or pot to send them. You hardly ever hear of an ulcer or a nervous breakdown in the hills. The only air pollution problem is the smell of wood smoke on a frosty day.
