Friends have called my attention to the fact that Mr. Richard Hyland cites me in his atrocious "Defense of Terrorism." Readers of the CRIMSON may be interested in knowing how Mr. Hyland knows what I am "fond of saying." He came to see me once, back in the spring of 1968. We had a long talk and he tried to get me to agree, among other things, that the participation of the United States in World War II was a mistake.

And because of that, I Am Curious, Yellow and Oh Calcutta! are Antarctic and anti-sexual. But on the other hand, what...
...filling up time. The Proposition presents the games we play and simply satirizes them. It offers no way out, and in that, it is a theatre of desperation. But I'm not sure that theatre can ever be therapeutic. People come to laugh and be entertained. They want to see bedrooms and bathrooms, and that's what we give them in The Proposition...
