...which those cartoon dolls He-Man and She-Ra are descended from Hansel and Gretel, and how the dragons and tin soldiers of old have evolved into today's plastic dinosaurs and G.I. Joes. But it is not only the myths that endure: often, traces of childhood still lurk beneath the tough hide of adults. This holds true, we found last week, even when those grownups work for TIME. Editors, writers and reporter-researchers often found it necessary to interrupt their tasks to poke through the mountain of dolls, blocks and robots that was amassed for the story...

Getting right down to bang-bang-you're-dead business, younger ones like to charge with StarLytes blazing, making the StarSensor glow and sound every time a hit is scored.

...rate the ad is, no doubt, sexist. We're not supposed to like the ad or buy the tequila because of the woman's strong character or interesting personality, but because she arouses the prurient interests that lurk beneath nearly every male's soul. To run this ad is arguably worse than allowing Playboy to advertise, for the Crimson is not just indirectly promoting sexism, it's activley displaying it for anyone willing to pay twenty cents. Therefore, we would like to make a simple suggestion. Stop running the ad. It's not only an act of hypocrisy...
