...droppings of Crumb's bathroom wit that Bakshi slaps into his narrative. (A Ph.d. candidate will someday call Fritz 'picaresque'). Fritz's black-talking, muscle flexing crow friends are the natural men of his world, though Fritz himself is far from psychotically WASP-ish. All the traditional Americans--pig cops and hardhats and a hound dirt-farmer--are sweating ignoramuses so whacked-out by work that they can't ever get it together. Radical politicos and Hell's Angels join paws in the headiest mix since PCPJ; even Orthodox Jews are ribbed mercilessly in the film's funniest scene...
...less permanently in South Viet Nam-and cause the government serious problems for years, even if the invading army is pushed back. There was evidence last week of such infiltration around Saigon, Kontum and Hue. In one village south of An Loc, Communists distributed leaflets, then bought a fat pig and treated the entire village to a "Liberation Day" feast. Next morning, after the Communists left, someone reported their presence in the village, which shortly afterward was bombed, as the Communists probably expected. They thus converted one village to their side...
Earlier in the evening, Mr. Mailer had told his audience "Left-conservatism's my position. Arose the mob to their folly and the oppressed to their genies."

...time to pack chose peculiar things to salvage: one family had a refrigerator in a wheelbarrow, nothing else. A lieutenant carried an enormous Sanyo sound system, still in its carton and minus the speakers, strapped to the back of his motorbike. Nearly everyone seems to have a pig. Pigs are strapped onto Honda seats, pigs are tied onto front bumpers, pigs hang in wire cages from tail gates and are slung from poles that peasants and their wives heft onto their shoulders. On the highway, a Jeep carrying six prosperous refugees had tried to pass a slower vehicle, strayed...
Black Panther Party Chairman Bobby Seale, the Chicago Eighth whose courtroom outbursts 21 years ago caused him to be chained and gagged, has apparently mellowed. The word pig never crossed his lips when, shepherded by three bodyguards, he spoke to an audience of 4,000 in Oakland, Calif. Instead of suggesting armed rebellion, he urged his listeners to take tests for sickle-cell anemia and to vote "for survival." In a move reminiscent of oldtime political bosses, he then distributed bags of food, each containing a frozen chicken. "Politicians used to promise momma a chicken in every pot," Scale said...
