...they who pack a succinct story into a few seconds and in the process produce many new cinematic ideas. The work of such directors as Michael Cimino for Kodak, Howard Zieff for Benson & Hedges and Mike Elliott for Rheingold, has precipitated an interplay of ideas that flows freely between Madison Avenue and the conventional movie set. The directors dabble with Fellini-like stream-of-consciousness techniques. Hollywood copies TV's fast cuts and odd-angle perspectives.

If there was one common new goal it was a drive to expand S.D.S. influence in the nation's high schools. The Madison, Wis., chapter will try to do so this summer by publishing a state-wide underground newspaper aimed at teenagers, sending a "radical rock-'n'-roll band" to tour youth-recreation spots. It even hopes to "radicalize" a surf club in Sheboygan and send its recruiters across the state...
