...Stop the Red Coach" is now the UFW slogan being publicized in 11 boycott cities across the nation. Critics of the union claim that Chavez is going to have quite a struggle this time around convincing the American public to make any type of sacrifice (however minimal). After all, this is the "Age of Apathy," and the "Me Generation." These critics however, are silenced by proof that a consumer boycott can be successful in 1979. In the Boston area alone, five out of six super-markets agreed to honor the boycott of Red Coach lettuce. Purity Supreme, Demulas, Fernandez, Capital...

...problems on earth before venturing beyond our planet will confine us for eternity. The world will never be without problems; they will become an obsession rather than a challenge unless mankind constantly expands its vision.

...Irrevy" affirms the antinuclear slogan "Question Authority" with a convincing fusion of scientific insight and moral outrage. It is true Gofman's ideas about "privilege-elites"--occasionally sends him flying off on odd tangents outside his expertise. These can be provocative, like his argument, in the form of a logical proof, that nuclear war is inevitable.

...called, has some imported features: the new pep song is borrowed from the old American folk favorite Big Rock Candy Mountain, and the promotional pens being handed out are stamped MADE IN U.S.A. So far the drive has succeeded mostly in inspiring derisive parodies, including one mock slogan that concludes: "Project Australia is a failia...
