When the song ends he goes on for a few measures to thereat in his own ear?. He slowly runs down, shakes the hair back from his face and stands watching the group on stage like! an eager child. And in a half-circle around them, watching, some amused, some disapproving, some puzzled, all very aware of the differ ence between themselves’ and the hippies, stand the Penn State - jacketed, Princeton cut Typical Students. They tap their feet or move their shoulders a little to the Beat as they watch. One muttered, "They can’t be for real.” The group played its last number. The crowd broke up. Outside three hippies start ed away from the girls they had been dancing with, One called back, “Thanks for bein' there." A .girl-half-turned, lifted a hand in acknowledgement and walked on, back to Simmons or McElwain. The group that played that night, that created the atmosphere for the whole phe nomenon, was We the Living, appropriately named for an Ayn Rand novel. After the per formance vthey dissolved into four students— Dave Fox, Bill-Johns, Tommy Barragone and Kenneth Matthieu. On stage they were a cohesive and ori ginal unit, enjoying the music they made. Their originality often confuses regular jammy-goers. “People come up and ask us what it means, or say they can’t dance to our Baha'is To Meet Friday Koyvan Behizad will be the in man's search for a peaceful East and West, the is from guest speaker this week at the united world.

Now at least we like what we do," says Pave, and the rest of the group agrees. Do they always attract the hippie con tingent? “Well, something like,that happens nearly every time. We’re one of the closest groups on campus to their type music. We don’t do much San Francisco stuff, but we play a lot of Beatles—you might say they’re our idols—Yardbirds, Blues Project, that kind of thing." Are they—the hippies—for real? “We don’t think so. Maybe you’ve heard the ex pression, plastic flower children? That’s what they are. I’m not knocking them, I have a lot of respect for the true hippie ideals, but these people just aren’t making it. Maybe it’s impossible in an atmosphere like Penn State. But your true hippie would never get out there and put himself on display. He’d just come in and sit in a corner and groove with the music if he liked it. We sometimes get the feeling that these people aren’t really appreciating what we’re doing as much as they're using us as a means to rebel. “We’ve been to Washington Square often. The difference is so great—those people live what they believe. These just come out and be hippies and then go back to the dorms. They try, but they’ll never quite make it •here.” "From these sessions, we hope that students will have some idea how to plan, promote and financially follow through with extensive campus publicity." The conference will include Don Rich, a professional public relations man who is president of Communications Inc.; Mimi Barash, who.will discuss creativity in adver tisements; and.,people from campus and town newspapers ' and radio stations. .
