historical evidence to support such a charge bothers Dr. Cappon not a whit.

In his chapter, "Homosexuality and Values" the author rushes bravely through well-mined battlefields of of philosophy with that recklessness which is always the mark of true ignorance. Floundering through the treacherous complexities of standards of ethics and morals, he comes up brightly with the finding that homosexuality, "by definition, is not healthy or wholesome." But why? Who says that this is so? And on precisely what basis? Homosexual behavior, Dr. Cappon declares, is "undesirable and worthy of disapproval," which statement, so far as he is concerned, seems to settle the matter. But does it?

Again, the soap-shiny innocence of the good doctor shows its face in the chapter on "Therapeutic Attitudes and Goals." "How deep is the homosexual cancer?" he asks. The patient is to be "changed for the better." For is it not both obvious and hopeful "that abnormal sex behavior can be stopped?" It is. "The cure of homosexuality is an all-or-none affair."

But enough of quoting. For we now have the type and dimensions of one more psychiatrist laid bare before our eyes, his own prejudices and complexes exposed. Humane, yet narrow, kind,

but imprisoned within a strait-jacket of his social and religious orientation -too un-selfaware to see any other view of life but his own as both conceivable and workable.

It should in all sincerity be said, questions of bad taste aside, that the day will be welcome when people venturing to study homosexual questions will receive or supplement their training with the thorough and searching regimen of the ONE Institute classes. For then we might hope to prune away those rank growths of speculation and personal bias so characteristic of those who have not had to endure healthy, knowledgable criticism and analysis of their work.

How sad it is that the unwary by the thousands continue to place themselves in the hands of practitioners who really are, let's face it, untrained or but half trained. Yet there still are those who feel that the work of ONE Institute is a waste of time, not needed, even presumptuous. To all these, it must be said that without such an approach, many sided and inter-disciplinary, as has long been used at the Institute, there are none qualified to advance the understanding of homosexuality very far.

TARZAN & HIS FRIENDS

If I told you

To get off your fat behind

W. Dorr Legg, Director, ONE Institute.

To turn off the television

Go back to school

Get an education

And make something of your life

You probably wouldn't hear me

Tarzan and the natives are shouting so loudly.

It's just as well. I'm not at all certain

That knowing French, German, and Middle English

Has made me the least bit happy.

So if you enjoy Tarzan and his friends

Then, by all means, do.
