...always liked to give advice. "Kill your parents," he used to say, and speaking for his fellow Yippies in the '60s he would warn: "Don't trust anyone over 30." Fortunately, elders like Jerry Rubin can now be trusted because at 39 he has lots more advice and counsel to give. He is planning a School for Living, featuring seminars in male sexuality, courtship, friendship and how to be successful. To teach beside him, he has a young partner: Mimi Leonard, 28, whom he plans to marry in December, "a romantic time of year...
