Hoping to go on to medical school, she took graduate chemistry courses and worked as a laboratory assistant to Biologist Robert Macy, who has described her as "interested in drugs and consciousness-raising-type pursuits." In February 1973, her six-year marriage to Black Pianist Gilbert Scott Perry broke up, and she began a drifting, seemingly aimless existence, working variously as a topless blackjack dealer in a North Beach nightclub and selling soft drinks from an outdoor stand. On Jan. 10 she fled a rented house in suburban Concord used by the S.L.A. as a headquarters, after trying...

The South did not let Alvin into the world without leaving its stamp on the boy; he may lack Charles's sense of the Barnumesque, but his candor is just as notorious. I give the first round to Charles just for getting Alvin to step into Kangaroo shoes. But the last laugh is on Charles too: even Alvin's presence don't make the A's more than...
