A man aged 45 picks you up on the road in his sports car, seems
reasonably intelligent and personable and offers you £100 to
spend the night with him. Would you accept?
That depends on how broke and randyyou arc at the time, of
course, butfor small townsociologist, ProfessorJessie Pitts, it
could tell alotabout his son.
Professor JessiePitts issurveying hippies andis currentlycomb-
ing Formanterra,London and Pariswitha fourteen pagequestion-
naire. He is able todetect iss,:bjects by"gu,. feeling" - a
reflex response to the presence ofhippies.
At thetopof the questionnaire isthe warning, "This question-
naire isnosy but anonymous it ispart of a researchproject
on the radicalwing of theyouth movement.Much iswritten
about it but the truefacts areveryscarce indeed. Hence this
questionnaire, which cannot claim to ask allthe rightquestions
• You may addwhatever comments youthink might in-
crease communication."
Communication between whom? Pitts'questionnaireis chaotic,
confused, incoherent. He asks whether'hippies' (asidentified
by "gut feeling") believein God,Psychiatry,Numerology,
theories of violent revolution etc.Ileasks questionsabout
menstruation, orgasm, whether drugs' makesex better, theditt-
erence in technique between squares andhippiesand heasks
what many questionnaires seem tobe headingtowards but
never quite ask: "When did you last haveintercourse?"
Once upon a time Jessie was a Trotskyite and later he served
time in the American Air Force. He admits, quite openly,
that life is a drag and that this is "right and proper". He sees
the American educational system as, very rightly, aprocess
where people can learn to tolerate being bored '75% of the time.
If you cannot learn to be bored then you become crazy and he
has designed a little table inhis questionnaire to prove this.
It asks the subject to record any feelings of being outside his
body, living ascene lie has lived before, feeling somebody is
watching him although nobody seems to be around,feeling
somebody is in his mind or torecord any oddsensations of
lights and sounds.
Professor Pitts' reasons fordoing thesurvey are to prove what he
already thinks. He will prove thisquiteeasily because he has
designed his questionnaire with that state of mind, he will
analyse with that state of mind and he will interpret with that
state of mind.Soif abalding sociologist aged 45 picks you
up onthe road inhissports car, seemsreasonably intelligent
and personable andoffers you a 14page questionnaire, ask him
for £100.
4r ;

It is a plaintive, if useless, scholarlyproject, for Jessie Pitts.

He is a middle-'aged, American college professorwho has a
personal problem. His eldest sou dropped outof Harvard and
became a hippie.

 prostitution" by dedicated
dreamgirls); but where, if you insist,
you are at last provided with a
Meet, a small room, a single bed and
a "Do Not Disturb" notice to hang,
briefly, outside.
The pressure of over-population, and
the increasing loneliness of
everybody, especially the aged,
make some such step just as
inevitable as World War III.
Pending enlightened government
action, it wouldn't be at all
surprising if private enterprise
decided to do what they can. Is
there a potential black market in
death pills? Can cyanide, or some
equivalent, be prepared in the home,
from, say. weedkiller? Facilities for
instant self-disposal may be
everywhere at hand, given a little
medical or specialist knowledge,
available on the grapevine. Could
one hire a companion - executioner to
despatch one in one's favourite
circumstances, without loneliness?
If seine of the energy devoted to
extracting LSD from bananas, old
sucks or peals of thunder were
devoted to pushing the idea of do-it'
yourself euthanasia, it is quite
probable that death, and life, would
lose many terrors, and acquire new
dignity.

Yourecently published anarticle on

It is the media, or theextensions of

Itsconsiders how the invention of

turned night into day and the world
into a village.
Now when McLuhantalks about mess- will hardly wantthe boat rockedwhile

McLuhan, like Vance Packard, is con-

wants us to dois believe LBJ isright. Yours sincerely

it isno wonder that McLuhan is

NEW: FROM PENTHOUSE
A REVOLUTIONARY PROJECT IN MAGAZINE PUBLISHING

T he PENTHOUSE FORUM provokes more interest, more correspondence and

more stimulating discussion than any other featore in British publishing. It
reflects this nation's sexual habits and interests, its fears and its fantasies, with
an authentic cross-section of the individual men and women whose personalities
and experiences form the basis of our social attitudes. It is human, intimate and,
forum:
above all, candid ! No other publication, conceived in our time, could have
created a public platform of such liberal and liberating proportions.
Unfortunately, editorial and space limitations make it impossible to present the
full panorama of enlightened argument and discussion that this section deserves.
To overcome these restraints and to satisfy the mounting demand created by the
innumerable letters that may never see print in these pages, the editors of
Penthouse have prepared a totally different publication, a magazine devoted
exclusively to readers' correspondence and the personalized discussions, comments,
questions and answers arising therefrom. Published monthly, Forum Supplement
will dramatically extend and develop the areas already covered in Penthouse while
introducing many more not yet touched on. Forum Supplement will continue to
promote that vital lifeline of communication between individuals and the society in
which they live. It will act as a contemporary encyclopaedia of human conduct
and experience, covering every aspect of our socio-sexual development as a
nation, and providing—through the informed comment of social, theological, legal
and medical authorities—THE FIRST PERSONAL ADVISORY SYSTEM EVER
PUBLISHED ON THIS SCALE IN BRITAIN !

AVAILABLE ON SUBSCRIPTION ONLY

Initially, Forum Supplement will not be available to the public at large, but only on subscription and in strictly limited editions.
The cost is £3 a year. To ensure that you do not miss a single valuable issue (each one of which will become an immediate
collector's item) reserve your subscription NOW by filling in the coupon provided below :

Yes, they can That's why OZ is banned at Parkhurst Prison. The library committee

The Russian revolution began well.
Killing theczar(God on earth),
giving the land to the people who
worked it (justice), and using man's
resources for the common good, not
for the benefit of the few(socialism).
The Russian revolution meant well.
Covetingchurches and building
§gt.p0i0.Askingthat each man
ed forthecommon good,each
according tohis capacities.
Promulgating freedom of the mind
and the freedom of love, the two
freedoms which make man beautiful.
At first, theRussian revolution
gave bread and shelter, as much as 7
it could, but soon tookaway
freedom of mind and freedom to
love.
In the beginning it was a revolution
by the people (peasants and workers)
for the people. it developed into a
revolution for the Russian people,
made by the party.
He who thinks that the Russian
revolution was made so that half a 0'
century later baggy trousered and
neck tied Russians could live in
pigeon holes called apartments and
read Pravda, and that Russian
housewives could raise well behaved
and reasonably fed brats who will
land on the moon; deserves to be
shot byta firing squad of underfed,
barefoo* South ericans, using
Amer rifles Russian bullets.

 their representatives, the Russian
revolution had to rely on party
cadres. Trotsky's forced exile was
the beginning of the end. The
party elite soon became the party
apparatus and the substitute for
democracy by the people.
Stalin decided that the Soviet Union
could be built; but it had to be the
Soviet Union first, and socialism
second.
Sad, that the first socialist
revolution had to begin in such a
country. Bad, that Lenin died so
soon.
Because the revolution is made by
those who need it, as the Russians
did fifty years ago. They saved their
revolution from the enemies
surrounding them, well and good.
Then they were supposed to start
building a socialist state. Millions of
Stakhanovs (Stakhanov is the
mythical worker who worked
harder than anybody else — a hero
of production) slavedin goodfaith,
convinced that one ounce of
Russian steel was good for the
people. But he was cheated and
discovered it in the early thirties.
He discovered that one ounce of
steel was good for Russia, yes, but
not necessarily for the people. In
the effort to make Russia
impregnable socialism was thrown
overboard. It was either grim work
or Siberia — or both.
WAS IT NECESSARY?
WAS IT INEVITABLE?
The production of red flags has
risen with every quinquennial plan,
comrades, over the last fifty years;
they could almost clothe the naked
of the world.
Maybe Marx was wrong, and the
true proletariat is not the working
class which hasaccepted the
crumbs of industrialized systems,
east and west alike, but the
peasants. The peasants who made
the Chinese revolution, in spite of
Stalin, against Stalin. The peasants
who fight in Vietnam, the peasants
who die of starvation in our name.
"Let us produce more" sing the
songs of the new era, bastard
socialism, so there will be plenty
for us, and surplus for India. That
Russian comrades, is not socialism.
Yes, there are historical
necessities. Like the destruction of
the anarchists in the SpanishCivil
War. Like displaying Stalin's
photograph and silencing Eisenstein.
Like supporting Chang Kai Shek
instead of Mao, like handing out
rhetoric with the one hand and
purges with the other.
Id
And yet your people,who
couldn't be trustedto talk, who
couldn't be trusted to read, who
couldn't betrusted tothink, fought
Nazism withthedesperationof the
just; with the determinationof the
simple.
And then a new Machiavellian god
made its appearance at Hiroshima,
a god of death and vengeance, an all
embracing god spelling total
annihilation,justifyingall quiesence.
BUT DOES IT?
When the statewhich called itself
socialist wasstrong enough not to
be afraid of its life(it took forty
years),when Stalinreceded rapidly
intothe shadows ofthedark past,
then youdiscovered theperfect
justification of yourbetrayal. The
internalsins wereno more, you
proclaimed, theybelonged to
Stalinand to Stalinonly. But
atomic disaster calledfor prudence,
injustice couldn't be eliminated,
only outwitted.
Therefore, "let us produce more,"
you said, under the umbrella of the
bomb, which we have as well as you,
we will bury you in tons of butter,
which we now produce for the
benefit of our children who are
Russian and therefore socialist.
Elegant silver silhouettes guarantee
our might, let's even try to get to
the moon; who gets there first will
be the winner, we'll celebrate the
day by distributing rice and rifles at
reduced prices, a token of our
associated concern for the state of
the rest of the world.
But inthe rice fields of China, other
peasants have rediscovered simple
words, words carefully buried within
the Soviet encyclopedia, murdered
in camps inSiberia, the grave of
Russian socialism.
Old and simple words like:
redistribution of land, socialism for
the oppressed, all over the world.
"Too late," said the Russians, "we
will help you, butbe reasonable, the
Godbomb makes it all impossible.
You have made it by yourself, when
no-one was watching, but the others
have to wait, we cannot take the
risk, frankly, it's become too
dangerous."
ilgammoblif cur
IIPahl C MYM1110R I-
SYFRA,71111CIPAX MTN I
"And what about Algeria? what
about Cuba?" asked the Chinese,
asked the poor.
"But" says the voice of Russian
reason, "look what has happened to
the Congo, to Indonesia —you must
all wait until we are good and ready."
And the Vietnamese are waiting, and
the Indians are waiting, and the
South Americans are waiting, and
Che Guevara is dead. And Russia, the
socialist Mother Russia, bleeding for
her children discovers a new way, a
pacific way.
The peasants say, "Every time we
rise the bombs fall —either we
don't have enough rice or we have
the bombs falling on our heads,
what sort of umbrella is that?" and
they say, "The godbomb was
supposed to be impartial but we
can't afford to be impartial, we
can't afford to wait".
Every time a peasant dies of an
American bullet, Mother Russia's
heart bleeds, but indeed she knows
that there is only one way now, to
produce more. More butter to bury
her enemies, and more cannons so
the enemies will respect her. Then
she can afford to send some to her
poor relations in distress, Vietnam —
yes, Guatemala, Bolivia, Colombia,
Venezuela —no.
This is what is necessary if you want
to build socialism in one country —
this is how it started:
Take over the economy so it
doesn't run for profit, and choose
the priorities, hospitals before cars,
schools before tanks, (war is
profitable, that is why a capitalist
country is, so they say, 'war
mongering', and a socialist country,
even Russia, is not). Who chooses
the priorities? It should have been
the people, but, in Russia, it was the
party. The party which represented
the people in the beginning, but
fatally lost them. Stalinism was an
aberration, a direct consequence of
the lack of democratic decision.
Everybody knew that socialist
Russia had to be defended. They
defended splendidly at first, the
peasants and workers who became
the people's army over night and
defeated the professionals, the
White Army and the mercenaries
from every Western country.
Socialism calls for public ownership
of land and industry as the one
basic measure to implement social
justice. It is not an end but the
beginning. If they believe in what
they are doing, and participate in
the decisions, the Stakhanovs are
countless. One way pointed to the
continuation of the revolution, the
other to the strengthening, at all
costs, in the name of socialism, of
the Russian state. When people didn't
count the hours they worked (the
Stakhanovs —and now the Chinese
workers and peasants) they were
already in a state of socialism.
As soon as enough food is produced,
make it free, enough houses, make
them free. When basic needs are
satisfied people give their best, the
meaning of property (its mine,
its yours) shrinks and eventually
has no meaning at all. Luxury is a
driving force only where there is
poverty, or fear of poverty.
Russia has enough to make food and
shelter and public transport free, so
that everybody could participate
with joy, (yes, they would, work is
only what you are compelled to do).
But they have not done it. They do
nothing. On the contrary. They
have reintroduced substantial
differences of distribution and have
made money artifically important.
Grim, grey idiots perpetuating a
party machine bent on its survival,
paying lip tribute to the struggles
going on in the world, measuring the
stock market of fear, sparing bullets
for the Vietnamese. Proclaiming
that production is the means, and
consumption its end.
If only they had made bread and
shelter and travel free, and love with
no strings
Fifty years, fifty years, and countless

The revolution was made for joy
and beauty, for bread and roses, so
that a man could go hunting in the
morning, fishing in the afternoon
and recite poetry at night (Marx,

Because I have to rise in life,
because my superiors are difficult,
because one has to eat, because I
have a mother, a sister, an aunt, a
child, a car, a mortgage, a party
card, a position, a dacha.
Because I haven't a house, I haven't
enough to eat, most of my children
die, there isn't enough water for
the village, the crop this year was
.bad, the taxes are too high, the
moneylender has taken away my

Russia, the sleeping beauty who slept
too long, woke up dead. As dead as
all the revolutions-which-should-
have-been and were not, dead as all
the loves which should have
blossomed and did not, dead as the
hopes of people who still have to
fill their bellies, dead as the hopes
of people who still must fill their
hearts.
And look at you. When evening

gratified.
And at Zima, the remotest village,

that he is happier than his father,
which he is, but wonders, when
the vodka has been good, why
his eternal wife nags, why life is so

of avant garde jazz, on the cover of arecordalbum entitled The New

many places about this new black music. I have madetheories,
sought histories, tried to explain. But the musicitsel•isnot about

A rose is not sweet because we explain itso.We ed say an) -

musical criteria on purely racial determinants without an) re-
course to the use of musical terms. LelZoi Jones cannot he re-

carded for something more "comfortable."I am physically
tired and intellectually near sleep. And out of this stateof
euphoric dullness 1 now feel that the latest stuff bythe
Beatles and the Stones is the finest stuff I'veever heard, in
fact the finest achievement in thehistory ofWesternculture.
As far as I can remember,thatis. But maybe just valid in

the context of critical euphoric dullness. Mereautobiograph-

of "that is ..." -like construction in"Strawberry Fields"isthe

• most overt clarification and simultaneous non-formalization of
raulich epistemology ever, indicated by suchmasterfully fluid Raunch

is aperfect reversal of the standardPlatonic-Cartesian certaintyfor

time this type of philosophical reversal occurred was in"I Want to

Rhythmically, "Penny Lane" exhibits a relentless precise awkwardness,
manipulated largely by the greatest sloppy drurnmingandfloppiestgreat
drumming. Ringo has ever displayed; McCartney's bass isanothergreat un-
settling unifier on this level. The nervousjaggedness of thetrumpet break
is just the thing (although anything theBeatlescouldhaveused inthecontext

the thing to do--it's asong whose temporalbreak after anot-so-temporal "hour-

reentry most like that of "Baby's In Black" in recent years. Alsonostalgicis the
pronunciation of "Customer" as "Coostomer, " like the "mooch"("much") of the old
days. Throughout "Strawberry Fields" a vacuum-cleaner sort of momentary,sucking
sound is perplexing. It sounds like single guitar notes played backwards, suggestingthat
maybe the entire vocal (which does contain strange enunciation Withpeculiarmarginal speed
variations) had been recorded, played backwards, learned as backwards, recordedasperformed
haekwards, and played backwards again to sound, ultimately, "foiwards. Mere forwardness (even
"

if just straight actual forwardness witty overdubbed vacuum cleanersor backwardsguitar) is aradically
secure and graspable form of ambiguous apparent/actual temporal directionality, particularly when"mis-
understanding all you see." Yoohoo *. "Strawberry Fields"lends its raunchepistemology to.thevalidity of
"Penny Lane "'s, spatio-temporal confusion; "Penny Lane" lends its fresh smell tothet/alidutter confusion of

Revolution In the Revolution
Regis Debray's
book will remain as a blue•
print for revolution for at least
a decade to come. Historically
It occupies much the same posi-
tion as Mein Kampf once did:
a plan of action--a prediction
and projection of just what is
going to happen in the world
for the next ten years or so.
And, like Mein Kampf, it will
probably be largely ignored be-
cause of the context in which
It is presented.
This its the age of the revolu-
tionary, as even the dimwitted
fatcats who rarely leave their
airconditioned homes are aware.
But revolution, suggests Debray,
must be total not just a corning
to terms-a compromise- with
the enemy. Who is the enemy?
Obviously the people who own
most of the world's material
possessions and intend to keep
them with the help of cops,
armies, politicians and fascist-
type publishers --all the repres-
sive structure that will try to
kill and at least jail anybody
who tries to take it away from
them.
In Latin America. whereof
Debray writes, country after
country is in the hands of a
er Scewsbean, Americans for D.r.io-
greedy few while hundreds of
thousands work and starve fo
allow these inequities to con-
tinue. Debray's thesis, "Revolu-
tion In the Revolution ' (Monthy
Review Press. $4 1 , says in ef-
fect that resistance movements
too often take the form of self-
defense. A group of exploited
tin-miners sick of being hound-
ed and badgered in their remote
company town decide to fight
back to earn the right to be
left in peace, for example. They
earn this right-for a time
but at the cost of being marked
down for future extermination or
repression. They have acted to
secure their perimeter only to
make it clear to the bosses that
they are contained within that
perimeter and can be polished
off at any convenient time.
The answer? Total guerillt,
warfare -to break out and des
troy the enemy, in this ekas-
the military government. It is
useless to get hung up on a
political structure and try to
negotiate, as all anti-Vietnam
war protestors should hav,
realised by now. (The recec'
American for Democratic Actin •
congress decided that although
they were opposed to the war
they were even more opposed
to LBJughead losing to a Repub-
cratic WHAT?)
It is obvious to most of the
world by now, if not in Ameri-
ca itself, that the United States
stands beh)nd most fascist dic-
tatorships, most countries
where a strong minority I parti-
cularly the military) is in power.
It is obvious, therefore not only
that these dictatorships he de-
feated - almost certainly by
armed force -- but that THIS
American government is the.
evil octopus that must be wiped
out, or at the very least totally
removed from office. There is
still too much of a tendency
for American "liberals" (also
known as Judas goats) to feel
that something can he done
through polite representation
requests. Bullshit. Johnson and
his shithead aides are murder-
ous bullies who, like all bullies,
respect only toughness.
"Power is seized and held in
the capital", writes Debray.
"hut the road that leads the ex-
ploited to it must pass through
the countryside." And he goes
on to point out that if you Want
success and not just dialectics
you must remember the hi.stori•
cal priorities: "The people's
army will oe the nucleus of
the party and not vice versa.
The guerilla force is the politi-
cal vanguard and from its dev-
elopment a real party can arise.

I am offering a prize of £ 100 for the best example of the use of lateral thinking sent to the publisher of
the book" by January lst. Any number of examples may be submitted. They may take the form of a story,
an anecdote or any other capsule form. The examples may be from personal experience, from literature or
specially designed. Should the examples be good enough the best ones will be published as an anthology
so the source of borrowed examples must be fully stated.
Many years ago when a person who owed money could be thrown into jail, a merchant in London had the
misfortune to owe a huge sum to a money-lender. The money-lender, who was old and ugly, fancied the
merchant's beautiful teenage daughter. He proposed a bargain. lie said he would cancel the merchant's
debt if he could have the girl instead.
Both the merchant and his daughter were horrified at the proposal. So the cunning money-lender proposed
that they let Providence decide the matter. fie told them that he would put a black pebble and a white
pebble into an empty money-bag and then the girl would have to pick out one of the pebbles. If she chose
the black pebble she would become his wife and her father's debt would be cancelled. If she chose the
white pebble she would stay with her father and the debt would still be cancelled. But if she refused to
pick out a pebble her father would be thrown into jail and she would starve.
Reluctantly the merchant agreed. They were standing on a pebble-strewn path in the merchant's garden as
they talked and the money-lender stooped down to pick up the two pebbles. As he picked up the pebbles
the girl, sharp-eyed with fright, noticed that he picked up two black pebbles and put them into the money-
bag. He then asked the girl to pick out the pebble that was to decide her fate and that of her father.
Imagine that you are standing on that path in the merchant's garden. What would you have done if you had
been the unfortunate girl? If you had had to advise her what would you have advised her to do?
What type of thinking would you use to solve the problem? You may believe that careful logical analysis
must solve the problem if there is a solution. This type of thinking is straightforward vertical thinking.
The other type of thinking is lateral thinking.
Vertical thinkers are not usually of much help to a girl in this situation. The way they analyse it, there
are three possibilities:
1. The girl should refuse to take a pebble.
2. The girl should show that there are two black pebbles in the bag and expose the money-lender as a
cheat.
3. The girl should take a black pebble and sacrifice herself in order to save her father from prison.
one of these suggestions is very helpful, for if the girl does not take a pebble her father goes to prison,
and if she does take a pebble, then she has to marry the money-lender.
The story shows the difference between vertical thinking and lateral thinking. Vertical thinkers are
concerned with the fact that the girl has to take a pebble. Lateral thinkers become concerned with the
pebble that is left behind. Vertical thinkers take the most reasonable view of a situation and then
proceed logically and carefully to work it out. Lateral thinkers tend to explore all the different ways of
looking at something, rather than accepting the most promising and proceeding from that.
 The girl in the pebble story put her hand into the money-bag and drew out a pebble. Wiithout looking at it
she fumbled and let it fall to the path where it was immediately lost among all the others.
'Oh, how clumsy of me,' she said, but never mind—if you look into the bag you will be able to tell which
pebble I took by the colour of the one that is left.'
The above story is a good example of the use of lateral thinking. flany people on hearing the expression
have an instinctive understanding of the nature of lateral thinking. Few use it consciously and deliberately
but many recognise occasions when it has proved effective.
Vertical thinking has always been put forward as the only effective form of thinking — at least for scien-
tific and practical affairs. Vertical thinking is the traditional logical, sequential, mathematical, Aristote-
lian type of thinking. But you cannot dig a hole in a different place by digging the same hole deeper.
Effective as vertical thinking is for developmental purposes it is quite inadequate for generating new
ideas and new ways of looking at things.
Lateral thinking is 'the other sort of thinking' but it is no less effective than vertical thinking even in
practical matters. The difference between vertical and lateral thinking is a fundamental one and it is
based on considerations of the system organisation in the brain.
The immense effectiveness of the human brain depends on its being organised as an iterative self-maxi-
mising two stage memory system. 'This is the type of system that creates order out of disorder but imposes
an old order rather than recognise a new one. This is the type of system that makes everyday life possible
but adventure difficult. Life would be awkward indeed if one had to analyse all the possible interpreta-
tions of the sound before jumping out of the way of a motor car horn. Instead the most probable interpre-
tation totally dominates all others. In a system with a normal distribution of probabilities (figure -1 )
the most probable would be slightly ahead of something less probable. A self-maximising on the
other hand is a dynamic system and the most probable is always far ahead of any other (figure 2. ).

The simplest example of a self-maximising system is an empty glass. Push it slightly and negative feed-
back brings it bad< to its original position. Push it very slightly more and it takes off on its own in posi-
tive feedback and reaches the limit position. Combine these self-maximising properties of the brain with
a memory system (and this has to be a two stage memory system in view of the limited attention span of a
self-maximising system) and one ends up with a very rigid — but immensely practical — form of information
storage.
No matter how far back one takes the ordinary logical process there must be an initial stage of perceptual
choice. No matter how excellent the logic may be it is the perceptual choice that will decide how easily
the problem can be solved. In vertical thinking one accepts the most obvious choice and then works from
it with great application in the hope that by sheer effort one may earn a solution. In lateral thinking one
continually shifts the initial perceptual choice and quite often very little logic is required when one makes
the right choice.
In some circles it is fashionable to regard the brain as a statistical computer. This can he a misleading
idea for while statistics are based on probability the brain is based on preferability. Scatter water ran-
domly on a preferability surface and you will end up with a few deep holes.
The effect of the rigidity and inevitability of perceptual choice is shown in the following visual problem.
The problem is to draw the outline of a shape which can be divided into four identical pieces (size, shape
and area) by a straight line. The outlined shape should be capable of being cut out of a postcard and the
four piece separated by one straight stroke of the scissors. The solution is shown on page 29.

that the pieces are not treated symmetrically but
one serves as a base for the other three,V
The apparent difficulty with this simple task is
that immediately the problem is stated there
arises a 'perceptual choice' of a square divided
into four quarters as shown in the figure. The
two erroneous versions proceed from this image

If, however, the problem is stated as being one
of assembling four identical pieces around, a

 Some readers complained about the space
OZ 7 gave to Michael Malik. A partic-
ularly vocal critic was a beautiful Jamaican
girl, Melinda, who is questioned below.
What do you think of Michael Malik's twelve
months' gaol sentence?
I think, frankly, it should have been longer.
He should have been deported, except that
Trinidad won't have him back. The news-
papers must stop publicising Michael X in
the same way they stopped publicising the
mods and rocker Brighton riots. The Press
should ignore him and when he realises that
he will get no more publicity, he will either
shut up or he will start doing something con-
structive for negroes in Britain who have a
genuine problem.
Don't you think he is?
No, he's doing a lot of harm; he's creat-
ing a situation which doesn't really exist.
He's trying to force the issue, he wants to be
a hero, as Stokely Carmichael is, just for
his own personal gratification, to the detriment
of the negroes in Britain. I think Malik 's put-
ting voice to a lot of submerged hatreds ...if
you present any group of people with an un-
pleasant person they will automatically hate
him and what he stands for and Michael X is
trying to identify himself with all the negroes
in Britain, which is wrong. The day his com-
patriots appeared on television a lot of harm
was done. I think a lot of white people went
round thinking: 'You bloody nigger, I know
what you're really thinking behind that calm
facade - go back to your own country."
Do you think that black people are discrimin-
ated against in tinscountry?
I don't know because I don't live in the pre-
dominantly coloured areas of Manchester and
Birmingham. I think in London there is very
little discrimination. If one wants to find
discrimination, one will. There arc cases
obviously of discrimination in housing, the
same way as there are cases of discrimination
in anything - but there is also discrimination
against Greeks, Jews, the Irish and everyone.
Are you an Auntie Tom?
Yes, by Malik's terms, I am an Auntie Tom,
which means that I choose to first find out the
sort of life the English live, find out how they
want me to live and abide by their wishes -
this is their country, not mine.
But if you're going to settle here and have
children, as many coloured people are,. isn't
it in their interests for you to try and eradicate
inequality p
Yes, but inequality has been and is being er-
adicated by legislation (which I don't terribly
agree with). Inequality stems from ones basic
inferiority or inadequacy to cope with a sit-
uation - I think a lot of the immigrants who
are here now are inadequate or considered in-
ferior because they have not had the opportun-
ities of the people living right next door to
them -when their children are educated and
go and look for jobs, if they are qualified, I
would think that they would have exactly the
same opportunities as anyone else. If we find
