When we visited one village in Chuong Thien last week, a young woman told us: "If you journalists from Saigon would bring us peace, I would prostrate myself for a month. In fact, I would kill a pig and give you a feast." The interpreter raised his right hand and said, "Brothers, I wish peace for you all." Immediately two other hands went up, the first clenched, and everybody said it: "Hoa binh. Peace...
...their mimeograph machines in a posh five-room suite two blocks from the Miami Beach Auditorium and Convention Hall. After several strategy sessions with Pomerance and his staff, Yippie Organizer Jeff Nightbyrd says: "You know, during all this planning I don't think I heard the word 'pig' one time.

...ground of transience, of irrational shiftlessness, that Wester mann's work has its affinities to that of other artists in the Chicago show. But their work is blacker, nastier and-in contrast to his demonic refinement-exuberantly gross. A work like June Leafs Ascension of Pig Lady, of which Woman-Theater, 1968, is a detail, is as nearly without formal interest as a work of art can be.

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...
