...line Editorial. Newhall's flamboyance and humor nearly always have a point. When the rival paper, Hearst's Examiner, got overrighteously indignant about topless bathing suits, Newhall ran a two-line editorial: "The problem with San Francisco is not topless bathing suits. It's topless newspapers." Mixing up a concoction of baking powder and alcohol and selling it to friends as Spanish fly, he helped finance a small scholarship fund for Mexican students at the University of California.

In one Los Angeles pool hall, the men around the tables hardly notice the topless dancer ten feet away from them.
