TokyoLeftist
Protest Halted

TOKYO. Dec. 10 (AP)-
Ultraleftist japanese students
today abandoned Q march on
the Japanese Parliament to
protest Japan's military al
lance with the United States.
The demonstration collapsed
after other leftist organizations
boycotted 1t because Of public
indignation over q similar
march November ~ in which
700 persons were injured.
Anti-American forces suf.
fered another defeat today. The
leftist-led Sohyo Labor Fed
Grafton called on q IS million
workers across the country to
hold workshop rallies denounc-
ing ties with the United States.
But police said only 325, 900
stayed on the job.
Leaders Arrested
The march on the Diet (Par-
liament) Building was ordered
by the extreme-left zengakuren
student organization. Before
the students could assemble,
police arrested three Zenga-
kuren leaders and the Tokyo
University student body voted
to virtually disown the asso-
citation.
The Socialists and COMMIT
nists parties and Sohyo also
denounced Zengakuren.
Some 1000 students as.
sembled in q park in central
Tokyo. Police masSed in front
Of the Diet building to meet
any march.
Meanwhile, several hundred
leather-jacketed toughs, armed
with sticks and carrying the
banners Of extreme-right or
ganizations, invaded the park
and showered the students
with curses. sticks and stones.
Scuffled With Police
The rightists withdrew, then
scunled with police. and two
were arrested. The roughs
said they had been hired for
the day to battle the students.
Most were recruited from o
school Of weight lifting and
Judo.
The students snake-danced
out Of park, shouting, singing
the Communist Internationale
and chanting I'VE are against
warl We are against the pact!"
The unscheduled para d e
through the capitals streets
at the rush hour created a
giant trafic snarl. Finally
police loudspeakers called on
the honorable demonstrators"
to disperse. They did.

MAKING PROGRESS. BY
Anthony Bailey. (The Dial

Anthony Bailey, an Eng
lishman, tries hard to make
his first novel a gay satire.
Maybe he has tried too hard.
In any case. it Just hasn't
come of. The trouble seems
to be that like many another
follower of Evelyn Waugh,
he thinks it is the prepos-
ferrous situation which is the
thing. That's part Of it. but
the rest is sharp characteri-
zation and-need We add
wit.
Mr.. Bailey's Humphrey
Slater is a fit fall-guy. He
gets involved in an absurd
International spy ring in
Switzerland and with an in
ternational playgirl on a
train. He muddles through
in the great British tradition.
but the reader. combing out
the various minor characters
may be equally muddled.
Those who would emulate
Mr.. Waugh cannot seem to
take it in that he is first Of
all. a superb writer. whose
vocabulary and sentence
structure make his matchleSs
early works for all their
hilarity, models of clarity
and precision. M. MEG.

Art and Philosophy
Of HoveIock Ellis

HAvELOCK ELLIS: ART
1ST OF LIFE, by John Stew
art Coils Sloane: $4), is not
o formal biography. but more
an appraisal. with enough
about the subjects life to ex-
plain his approach to art and
philosophy. Mr.. Coils is an
English author, journalist
and university lecturer.
While Mr.. Coils has a
great admiration for Have
lock Ellis, his books are ex-
anined critically and his
shortcomings, such as a cer-
tain lack Of humor. are con-
sidered, Mr.. Coils feels that
the body of the work should
be extolled rather than in
dividual books. He adds that
"the nearest he came to a
masterpiece is The Dance Of
Life" -
Perhaps Mr.. Coils under
estimates a little this highly
original Interpretation in
which Ellis reduced all things
to arts. starting with the art
Of the dance. the oldest Of
them. Mr.. Coils thinks the
chapter called THE Art Of
Religion" could have been ex-
banded into q separate book.

Novel Invudes
The Dream World
Of Mentally III
THE FUGITIvES by Robert
Gutwillig. little Brown &
~ 20 7EN

THE FUGITIVES by Rober
Gutwillig. little Brown 4
Co.; $3.50
A mental patient recently
said, I'm happier on the in
side than the outside" Robert
Gutwillig's novel, 1.-THE Fugi-
tives." makes this remark
believable.
The fugitives live at the
Haven, a sanitarium for the
unwanted in society. This
place is their escape from the
world. Two patients play an
endless game Of chess on an
empty board while another
patient writes letters to her
husband who has been dead
for 10 years. Others at the
Haven add to the calm chaos.
Stevie Freeman's early dis
appointment in love and his
failure to reach an under
standing with his older
brother contribute to Stevie's
mental illness. He finds
security by helping his fellow
patients at the Haven.
Walter, a painter, at first
resorts to alcohol to face the
whirlwind universe. He
eventually RECEIVERS and is
able to make an adjustment
to society.
Caroline, a therapist at the
sanitarium, falls in love with
Stevie and this love is CEN
tered around a strong theme
Of devotion. Caroline is
reconciled to the life Of the
millions. Stevie is not.
Mr.. Gutwillig shows imagi-
nation and insight in a reals"
tic approach to the dream
world Of the mentally i'll. 1t
is most refreshing to read a
book on a psychiatric subject
without the impression that
those on the inside have all
their rocks missing. Mr.. Gut
willig has created an excel
lent novel by making the
usual unusual, the normal
odd and the odd normal.

Who Was Really to Blame
In the Andrea Doreu Crash?

COLLISION COURSE. BY
!: Alvin Moscow. 90. P. Put
!. mans Sons: $4.5O) .
This seems a season for
looking back on sea disasters.
The sinking Of the Titanic
has been taken care of in
the best-selling book and
popular movie: "A Night to
Remember"
Now there's Mr.. Moscow's
story Of the controversial
Atlantic crash Of the Andrea
Dorea and the Stockholm.
No one is likely to dispute
the publishers statement
that this is "the definitive &C
count" Although newspa-
pers and magazines have
treated the subject at length,
Mr.. Moscow is the first to
dissect the disaster.
Scans Testimony
He begins his story nine
hours before the collision, as
the ships approach the Man.
tucket Lightship of New
England July Is, 1856. From
recorded facts and recollec-
tons Of passengers. ship
officers and crewmen, he
slowly brings the vessels to-
= gether. sweeps the collision
scene as If with a telescope
camera. and scans testimony

offered at the official inquiry
into the case.
There was, and still is,
considerable argument over
who was to blame for what
factor in the collision. Mr..
Moscow. who covered the
case as an Associated Press
reporter, adheres to APP tradi-
ton and does not take sides.
But a reader is given enough
factual material to form an
opinion easily enough.
One of the many shocking
angles Of the tragedy is the
allegation that crewmen de-
serted the sinking Andrea
Dorea, while most Of the
frantic passengers were still
aboard. This abandoning Of
the Doria by her crew before
the passengers" points out
the author, "cast a reflection
not only upon the Andrea
Dorea but upon seamen
everywhere who for genera
tons had lived and died up
holding the tradition of the
sea that says women and
children first"
