In October, Paul McCartney, who had helped to build a new culture less than ten years before, arrived in New York with his symbolic hair cut short above the ears. Heroes have risen, flared like supernovae, and faded. In Octo- ber, the football team lost to Stanford, Oregon and Cal, and in October, Janis Joplin followed Jimi Hendrix off the stage of an overdose after screaming her song to the wind. 1944
