...unemployed husband in Philadelphia was told that his working wife must be listed as "head of household" and that he should list himself on the line "wife of head." One of the special enumerators who made house calls, Mrs. Rose Levine, 52, was asked to check residents of a nudist colony at El Cajon, Calif. She kept her clothes on and also managed "to look directly at them and see their personalities," rather than their bodies. Many respondents wondered why the Government asked for their telephone numbers. The answer was reasonable enough: if a questionnaire was not properly filled...

Scores of bookstores in every major city deal in the hard-core pornography that Dad had to smuggle in from Paris (where it is now hard to find). Many, for 250 a viewing, also feature two-minute peepshows of naked couples. Nudist magazines, which until recently airbrushed their models in strategic areas, now show them in toto. So do a proliferation of homosexual magazines. So do a new wave of lecherous tabloids, with titles like The New York Review of Sex, whose erogenetic aim is mostly emetic in effect.

Last year San Diego's COMBO (Combined Arts of San Diego) raised $250,000 auctioning off such items as a new house, an African safari and a ride in the Goodyear blimp; nobody bid on the two-week vacation in a nudist colony. Orlando's (Fla.) PESO (Participation Enriches Science, Music and Art Organizations), which raised $162,000 at its auction last year, had no trouble disposing of 50 tons of orange-grove fertilizer and a $2,500 orange-grove sprayer. And in Phoenix this year, such items as hernia and cataract operations, stud service by a registered...
