May The American edition of the Wolfenden Report was announced in the Editorial and the lead article was on New York, its police and the YMCA, etc. The latter rings a bell after the November 1964 election and Mr. Jenkins.

June With a bright yellow cover homosexual marriage was plugged. A poignant Bob Waltrip story, "Orange Blossoms," was liked by almost everyone. James Colton's "The Corrupter" made the issue a very good one for fiction. Dr. Merritt's review of a book on tyranny pointed how tyranny fails. The letters column carried one from Oregon on a stupid column by Howard Taubman which attacked homosevuality on the New York stage, and a letter on the hardships of homosexuals from the States crossing into Montreal for a visit to the gay bars there.

July Contained an article by Father Bernard Abbot of St. George Monastery of (American Eastern Orthodox Church, Las Vegas, Nevada) on some religious truths which the homosexuals should consider. The fact that this ancient Christian church, which is not homosexual, accepts homosexuals, should cause other churches and religious persons to reconsider their out-date religious concepts. The short story "The Moralists" put across point on the hyporscrisy of heterosexuals toward sex, the population explosion and poverty that no sermon or article could have done half so well. Variety reported (tangents) on W. Dorr Legg's appearance on a Chicago tv show (ABC). Esquire had an article on censorship which mentioned ONE's famous case agaainst the Post Office, which we won, and which is still the only case carried to court by ANY homosexual organization, despite all the bravado claims of some of the other organizations.

August How could anyone ever forget this auspicious issue which brought down on us the wrath of so many

prissy queens who have their homes stacked with dirty pictures and physique photo magazines but who couldn't bear it when they saw a penis in ONE Magazine. Also, a story portrayed an unpleasant aspect of some homosexuuals and once again proved that ONE does not hide the unpleasant side of homosexuality. Tangents pointed out the lies contained in Irving Stone's The Agony and the Ecstasy soon to be out as a motion picture. And George Francis gave us an excellent little gay beach story from Australia. City of Night finally got reviewed, favorably, in ONE. And readers complained, for the umpteenth time in letters tht ONE concentrates too much on news from Southern California and attacks other areas too much. Neither charge is true, but readers in other areas who fail to send in news clippings should not complain we don't report more news from

their cities.

September This issue contained an excellent interview with a teenage homosexual. The fiction was the all too often story of two shy individuals who, due to a failure to let their fail be known, to make friends. Tangents reported that in Caanada Macleans Magazine had fired a writer who had written an article on puppy-sex and the tv network (CBS) had cancelled a show with Helen Gurley (who wrote Sex and the Single Girl.)

It is interesting that since then Macleans has carried an excellent article on homosexuality. Time doesn't change some things though, for New Orleans was having a to-do about James Baldwin's James Baldwin's Another Country, which this year Chicago is to-doing about or rather Tribune is attacking. And Hawaii was having a witch hunt, and (February 1965) the Magazine carried an article which points out that the so called gay guides are wrong most of the time (only one bar out of
