...locale was a nudist camp that had just closed its season, so the participants had privacy in 400 acres complete with cabanas and a Jacuzzi whirlpool bath big enough to hold all of them at once. Heated to 102°, the bath proved to be important therapeutically. As newly arrived members met, fully clothed, they were asked to discuss any anxieties or fantasies that they had about their imminent nudity. Many were apprehensive-surprisingly, more about seeing others nude than about being seen-but just talking it out helped. Though they had the choice of bathing nude or wearing...
...commune's vegetable gardens. Cabbages and turnips, lettuce and onions march in glossy green rows, neatly mulched with redwood sawdust. Hippie girls lounge in the buffalo grass, sewing colorful dresses or studying Navajo sand painting, clad in nothing but beads, bells and feather headdresses. (Not everyone is a nudist-only when they feel like it.) A shaggy sheepdog named Grass plays with the hippie children, among them a straw-thatched 17-month-old boy named Adam Siddhartha...
Against the backdrop of Paris, MacLaine plays everything from a bitchy bourgeoise to a nudist nymph. In one sequence, she is Paulette, grieving as she leads her husband's funeral cortege to the cemetery.

In East Moss Point, Miss., Baptist Preacher Dennis McDonald paid a sudden, proselytizing visit to Mrs. Laura Pendergrass, a member of the American Sunbathing Association. She was partly naked; he was wholly shocked. All of which earned Mrs. Pendergrass a $50 fine and a suspended sentence of 20 days in jail. Equally shocked, the Mississippi Supreme Court unanimously voided her conviction. Not only did the puritanical preacher ignore a "no trespassing" sign, bristled the court, but he also stayed to gawk for 45 minutes despite his self-proclaimed "purity...
...quarters of whose products "fall into the hands of teenagers under 18." In January, for example, Los Angeles Publisher Milton J. Luros (estimated annual sales: $6 million) and eight associates were convicted on 147 counts of violating anti-obscenity laws by deluging Iowa with six smutty paperbacks and 14 nudist magazines. Although 250 obscenity cases are now pending in California, even the state's best bookstores still blatantly display "nudie" magazines, while others peddle prurient paperbacks, ranging from Carnal Code to Passion Puppet...
