Even the big magazine publishing houses would suffer severely. The postal bill of Philadelphia's beleaguered and money-losing Curtis Publishing Co., already embarked on a drastic cost-cutting program (TIME, March 30), would rise by $6,500,000 a year, to $21.5 million. The Reader's Digest (circ. 13.5 million) has estimated that the proposed rate increases would push its annual mail costs up 28%, to $16.2 million; TIME INC.'S postage payments would rise $7,500,000 a year, to $25.5 million...

Another problem is the lack of imagination in the actual music. The 'Poon's tunes are extremely limited, and the arrangements embarrassingly simple. Many suffer from lack of a clearly defined beat, a must for all rock songs. Others show the inability of the composers to use effectively even the small repertoire of chords permitted to rock composers. But most important, the tunes are generally dead, and Gordie Main's rather tame Maniacs little to revive them. Perhaps the trouble is that few electronic distortions were employed...
