...years, and is being impersonated by a double. Gibb figured it all out from two Beatles album covers. The new Abbey Road cover, he explained, shows Ringo Starr dressed as an undertaker, George Harrison as a gravedigger, and John Lennon as a religious personage. Paul is dressed hi a normal suit and is barefoot-the mark of a corpse laid out for burial in Italy. The license plate on a parked Volkswagen reads "281F," meaning that Paul would have been 28 if he had lived. On the second album cover, Magical Mystery Tour (1967), Gibb found an equally arcane message...
...included psychiatrists, sociologists, anthropologists, lawyers and a theologian, urges states to abolish the laws that make homosexual intercourse a crime for consenting adults in private. More controversially, their report recommends that government and private employers "reassess" their current standards and implies that they should hire homosexuals who can pass normal screening procedures. (A three-man minority of the task force dissents, saying that research is still insufficient for making policy judgments.) The report is the first by any group under U.S. Government auspices to take this stance...
...ground for despair. Endorsing the findings of pioneering research that have accumulated in the past two decades, the group says that "many homosexuals are good citizens, holding regular jobs and leading productive lives." Psychiatric treatment permits about 30% of adults who seek help to enjoy a normal sex life. An even larger percentage of children who are incipient homosexuals can be reached in time to avoid the condition entirely...
...current techniques of counseling and prevention are most effective, to develop new ones and delve into the still uncertain patterns and multiple causes of homosexuality, the task force recommends establishment of a major U.S. center for the study of sexuality-from sex patterns in animals to all kinds of normal and abnormal human sexual behavior. Too often in the past, it says, competent researchers have been discouraged from entering the field by the taboos that surround it-and by the difficulties of obtaining research funds. Other key points: teachers and youth-group counselors should be better informed about homosexuality...
Many human beings convert only 1% of their cyclamate intake to CHA, and so minute a quantity might well be harmless. But for unknown reasons other, equally "normal" people convert as much as 40% to CHA; if they are heavy users of cyclamates, the resulting high dose of CHA might cause cancer or other diseases. Like countless other chemicals, cyclamates also cause breaks in the chromosomes of both man and animals, but the genetic significance of these breaks is not yet known...
