International Times, Issue 26, 16 February 1968

This issue includes a quote from William S. Burroughs at the title for "Three Views on the Anti-University" [Harold Norse, Alexander Trocchi, and Robert Tasher], p.6, pulled from the December 1967 issue of Mayfair.  

On page 7, there is a news item "Burroughs Takes up Scientology" that notes that Burroughs is offering auditing at the London Scientology Center.

Published in London, England by International Times in February 1968.

My thanks to Jim Pennington for pointing out the little bit of Burroughs Scientology history in this issue.
