100 Beatniks Tour
Downtown SF With
Flutes, Bagels
By RODNEY GUILFOIL
United Press International
San Francisco (UPD One
hundred neighborly Beatniks
left their haunts in Beat Alley
Monday night for a tour of
downtown San Francisco with
flutes, bongo drums and bag
els.
Object of the tour was to
let members of San Francis
co's "Beat Generation" see
how the other half lives. The
other half was doing its Mon
day night shopping.
The Beatniks set out from
the Co-Existence Bagel shop
in two chartered sightseeing
buses. Huge banners hung
from the windows reading:
"The Squaresville Tour."
The first stop was the St.
Francis hotel. Entering by the
fashionable Post Street side,
the Beatniks filed into the lob
by behind flutists and a bongo
drummer. They carried signs
saying:
"The Beats are touring the
bourgeois wasteland," and "Hi
squares, the citizens of North
Beach are on tour."
Beat Fashions
After making the scene at
the St. Francis, the Beatniks
trooped down the street into
the elegant salons of I. Mag
nin and company, and staged
a Beat fashion show.
The Beatniks paraded up
and down the aisles, the wom
en showing the last word in
black shorts, black sack
sweaters, long black stockings
and sandals, and the men
wearing smudged slacks, fray
ed corduroy coats, dirty shirts
and beards.
Occasionally the - Beatniks
paused to swig from bottles
enclosed in paper bags. A
lady .Beatnik carrying a long
stemmed rose said it was sher
ry. Police at Scene '
From Magnin's the Beatniks
adjourned to Union Square
for a spot of poetry reading
One line of verse went: 1

the occupants of three squad

came up to talk to the Beat
niks. The word got around:
"Don't bug the fuzz." This
meant, "Don't bother the
cops."
Then followed a visit to the
lobby of the Sheraton-Palace
hotel, where Beatnik leader
Eric Nord was arrested on
charges of helping two teen
age girls run away from their
homes.
After stops at one or two
other points of interest, the;
