...Rise up and abandon the creeping meatball!" goes the rallying cry, and it has brought to the Yippie standard such underground gurus and goblins as Timothy Leary, Allen Ginsberg, Realist Editor Paul Krassner and Jerry Rubin, a key organizer of the Pentagon March. Hard-core Yippies may number as few as 400 nationwide, but Fug Sanders reckons that the total following may now have reached...

...Lawrence has long been admired as both a poet and painter. As a novelist, he was a passionate realist and an impassioned crusader for plain talk about sex. As a playwright, however, Lawrence has been ignored; his eight plays were poorly received on the rare occasions when they were performed during his lifetime, and they were first published in a collected edition only three years ago.

...other characters say several times: "There's something about the girl." All the rest is left to the actress who plays Joan. She must make the audience believe in the other characters' phenomenal belief in her. This, Diana Sands fails to do. She stresses Joan the outward realist and scants Joan the inner mystic. Her voice can be heard, and a trifle too stridently, but her "voices" are mute...
