The audience was composed mainly of students. His appearance
was sponsored by the Student Judicial Court, Chairman ,RONALD
B. HALPERN. HOFFMAN'S talk was full of vulgarities and
obscenities and consisted of an attack on government
institutions as not serving the needs of the people and calling
upon the audience to drop out of the present society and "live

that he either misurderstood or ignored the point of each
question and never really gave an answer. [¢ 5
