...about the same time, though, the Beatleologists hit a dry vein when they decided that the songtitle "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" was an anagram for LSD. The song's author, John Lennon, has explained to the world that "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" was the title of a drawing his daughter brought home from school, around which he built a song about a little girl's fantasies. The song is simply an updated "Big Rock Candy Mountain" with a very neat accelerate-slowdown effect that gives the impression that you're traveling...
Dahlstrom, who admitted that he used marijuana, LSD and amphetamines, was not shy about discussing the crime-though his tale was scarcely coherent. Even before talking to his lawyer, he spilled out his story in prison to the San Francisco Examiner's Mary Crawford. He spoke of a bad LSD trip brought on by a dose that Carter had sold him. Later Dahlstrom told a reporter about what he called "the struggle": "He was convulsing as he went down. That's why I stabbed him some more -maybe a little too much. I hadn't had life...
...first report of a human malformation linked with LSD use proved to be inaccurate. The Saturday Evening Post claimed that an Oregon child "had a defect of the intestinal tract and its head was developing grotesquely-one side growing at a much faster rate than the other."

But at least four babies of LSD-tripping mothers, now being studied in Buffalo, have broken chromosomes...
...Francisco General Hospital reports "some cases" of malformation among babies of LSD-using mothers, but Chief Obstetrician R. Elgin Orcutt feels that he lacks enough data to show a cause-and-effect relationship. U.C.L.A.'s Dr. William McGlothlin agrees. "I know of some miscarriages among LSD users," he says, "but I don't know if the rate is higher than among other people." Dr. McGlothlin, who works with hippies, has a federal grant to help him get more data...
Having disposed of the black leather-jacket set in The Wild Angels and LSD(The Trip), Roger" in The Wild Angels" and LSD (The Trip), Roger Corman turns to the past for sensations and comes up with Al Capone. The result is lots of catsup in ballrooms and garages. Corman, a set-happy director, lets the furniture generate most of the suspense in The St. Valentine's Day Massacre. You're on the edge of your seat, in anguish: Will the next chairs zipping into the picture be dressed in chintz or campy antique satin...
