A Sadder But Wiser Occasion When the Spring Mobilization to end the War in Vietnam was held on March 15, 1966 it was a joyous event. The sense of joy could be directly attributed to two factors. One factor was the amaze­ ment that everyone felt upon seeing so many other people marching. I will never forget the feeling I got when I reached the top of a steep hill on the march and turned to look back; for as far as I could see there were marchers filling the street. The sheer numbers were intoxicating. The second factor lending joy to the march was the idea that this demonstra­ tion, by its numbers alone would serve to change the warmakers' minds. Here we are more than two years later and the war has not only not stopped it has become even worse. It was in this less naive atmosphere that the G.I.'s & Vet's held their march. IL1CT WALLACE There were between seven and ten WALLACE thousand marchers.

Mary Cantrall's Popcorn Balls

This being the season for such things, we decided to include a recipe for Pop­ corn Balls. The virtue of this recipe is that it isn't as sticky and unmanageable as other Popcorn Ball recipes.

Pop some white popcorn. If you can't do this forget the rest. Then in a pan mix:

Vi cup vinegar Vi cup water 2 cups sugar 1 cup Karo 1 tsp butter

Cook to soft ball stage, add 2 tsps of baking powder (the magic ingredient), add coloring if desired. Whip thoroughly, add to popcorn in massive quantities and BALL AWAY! ! ! ! !

Their crime: sitting down and refusing to work in protest against the shotgun killing of fellow prisoner, Pvt. Richard Bunch, who was fired on by an unidentified guard Friday, October 11th, after he broke and ran from a "shotgun work detail" repairing footlockers at Letterman Hospital under armed guard. The twenty seven are being held under "maximum secur­ ity" apart from the other prisoners in the overcrowded stockade which long-time observers say is daily taking on more and more appearances of a heavily armed garrison. Many of the men witnessed the killing and have asked for press interviews to counter the official Army version of "justifiable homicide", which attorney Terry Hallinan points out was arrived at without an investigation mere hours after the event. Mrs. Leon Bunch held a press conference in San Francisco on Wednesday, October 30th. Her story capped the mounting evidence that even the slightest willingness of Army officials to recognize and deal with her son's long-demonstrated condition of severe emotional disturbance would have prevented the tragedy. She described her desperate and unsuccessful attempts last May to get him committed when he visited her while AWOL at their Dayton, Ohio home. Richard told her how he'd twice been STAFF reincarnated as a warlock, and "walked out through walls" to come home. She took him to a civilian hospital, and instead of treating him the doctors notified Army offic­ Editor Alex Pratt ials he was AWOL. MP's were sent to arrest him. Her pleas with officers on his behalf Publisher Mitchell Fredericks produced a letter from the Adjutant at Fort Meade, Va., promising a psychiatric in­ Artists Kimberly & Toni Cartoons Jim Brown vestigation for her son. Instead, the 5' 4", 120 pound Bunch was shipped to San Fran­ Photography Ron, Toni, Alex cisco and imprisoned in the stockade where he soon became known by prisoners and Erik Loff & even more officials alike as a highly disturbed young man. He awoke in the night screaming from Distributors Beacon Farm Milk nightmares, held conversations with himself in dialogue form on the edge of his bed, Sandal Spot and shared fantasies with the few who would listen.

At first, he refused to go on the detail, whereupon ground Press Syndicate. a guard took away his crucifix, returning it only when he agreed to go. Forced to participate, he repeatedly asked other prisoners questions that morning about how to commit suicide. Someone told him one way would be run from the detail. Everyone heard him, and any guard with sense would have known he was des­ perate and offered help rather than egging him on. Finally he asked point blank if he would be shot if he ran. The guard replied, "You'd have to run to find out." "All GREATEST right," Bunch answered, "but please aim at my head." Some twenty yards later, without having called out the customary three "Prisoner, HALT" orders, the guard shotgunned and killed Bunch. He claims to have fired for the legs, but one wonders how this would have been possible at such short range, since a coroner's report certif­ ies that the back of Bunch's head was blown off. Army regulations sanction shooting at a running prisoner only after all other means have been exhausted and then to cripple, not kill. Now twenty-seven men are being charged with mutiny for protesting this killing and the stockade conditions. In the last six months there have been thirty-one at­ tempted suicides at the stockade by twenty people. The military is extremely upset over the rising opposition to the war within its ranks, and the active opposition to the brutal treatment of prisoners. Thus an example is being made of the twenty-seven men. The maximum penalty for mutiny is death; the minimum could easily be twenty years.

NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CIRCULATE RECALL PETITION

Pursuant to Section 27504, California Elections Code, the undersigned, registered, qualified voters of the City of Sand City, State of California, hereby give notice that they are the proponents of a recall petition for the election of a successor to Phil Calabrese, mayor and council member, incumbent, and intend to circulate said petition in said city for the purpose of procuring signatures of registered qualified voters thereto. WLUTlKf, The grounds for the proposed recall are: sH \\ The City Government of Sand City does not represent the s i^ majority of its citizens nor does it serve their interests. In M e\N addition, the Sand City Government, Councilmen and Mayor, has appeared to act in a discriminatory way toward the black citizens of Sand City, which could be a direct violation of the constitutional rights belonging to each citizen. We believe that government is the servant of the people and if democracy is to continue, the people must have a government which represents them.

Anyhow the respectables have recently had everything from: Caroline Kennedy A Little Girl in Turmoil (Jan. Good Housekeeping) to Jacqueline Kennedy's Memories (Ladies Home Journal Dec. '68) to an article by John Kennedy's back specialist Dr. Janet Travell (McCall's Dec. '68).

Walking with me were three friends. We were stopped on 17th Street by Officer Fuller. He ordered us to present our ID's, so we did. After seeing our ID's he ordered two of my friends to get into his patrol car. I asked why my friends were being taken, and if I might have his name and badge number. At this time a second officer walked up. He asked Officer Puller what was going on. Fuller replied, pointing to me, "This punk is trying to give me a hard time." The second officer, Manuel Armaino, put his Hash light in my face and said, "Keep your mouth shut you fucking punk". To this I told him 1 planned to file a com­ plaint and started to walk away.

The cops did a moderate amount of damage searching the Resistance House apparently looking for drugs. A neighbor reports they also looked in several of the parked cars and then split. But friends, our story isn't ended yet. One of the residents returned to the house and after leaving was followed by an MP car. Upset, he lost them on a back street only to be picked up again by the MP car. He lost them again after another "joy-ride" and hasn't been bothered since. Fven though the house is under sur- veilance, it is thought that the escapees were turned in by one of their parents, who they probably tried to contact for help.

TRUTH AND THE LAW •fiCRAMBLERC Truth is a religious concept, not a legal one. Legal "truth" is nothing more than ^fc FROM AMPEG - ^^ the result of contending forces. It is dif­ g\ add new dimensions to your ferent, for instance, if you have more M^tPm pass, guitar and amplifier money to hire better lawyers. For a man to "swear to tell the truth" in a court case may be little more than a mockery To tell the truth to another man is an act of love. In ordinary parlance we call it "leveling with him". Only if one is at least trying to love another person can one pretend to speak the truth to him. Anger and hatred are often the vehi­ cles for revealing the truth to others. So we must say that anger and hatred are often close to love. A court trial by end­ ing a quarrel may therefore bury the truth rather than reveal it. We have left only society's desire to "cool it" and got obnoxious people out of the way.

Well informed sources advise me that perjury in the courts is standard practice by the police and presumably by the wit­ nesses also. These sources tell me "there is nothing you can do about it". The judges are intelligent men. Therefore, if my information is correct, they must know what is going on.
