...face," the eerie voices tell us, and we can believe in their moonglow-bathed hallucinations. But no sooner is the mood established, than composer Galt Mac Dermot and lyricists Gerome Ragni and James Rado destroy it by tipping their hats to the Times Square crowd. All of a sudden the chorus hippies are yelling out a catalogue of hallucinatory cliches ("Red Light! White light. Your skin is soft!")--and the music descends into vulgarized pop-isms reminiscent of that TV monstrosity Hullabaloo. Why?

...Germany, militarily indefensible and dependent for econom ic survival on easily sundered access routes, it is the place where the cold war began 21 years ago-and where the Communists refuse to let it die. Last week Berlin was once again the center of an incipient crisis. By a sudden decree, the East German regime of Stalinist Walter Ulbricht barred a large number of West German legislators and all military personnel from traveling by road or rail through East Germany on their way to and from West Berlin...

Thus Sifford, long the victim of the apartheid in pro golf, picked up $20,000 and became, however briefly, the first Negro to lead the money winners on the pro tour...
...Esalen, the sudden and over-whelming knowledge had come to the boy, when he was climbing up the mountain, that he had his breathing. "I am safe in my breathing." And he laughed and laughed because it was that easy. Until the very moment of death, he would always be safe in his breathing, always secure. He could always take a deep breath and say, "I am safe there, that is my breathing, that is my life, that is me." His breathing was his anchor, it was his starting point.
