Claiming that public education has failed to prepare its graduates for their place in life, the Gulick report to the New York Board of Regents last fall favored the establishment of an eight year secondary school.

But the reigning queens of Howard Street need have no worries about business falling off. Aside from the now-famous Log Cabin Close-up and a couple of long distance shots of Miss Lamarr loping around the countryside without a stitch to her name, the picture makes no monumental play for the baser passions. In fact, the sex in "Ecstasy" makes...
