Slim Pickings

This is all I've found so far, and it was not an easy search.  How did you spend your weekend?

"February: Esquire Magazine features a cover story declaring: "Chicks Up Front! How Troublemakers Use Girls to Put Down the Cops" and other tactics of the radical left.[574]"

I clicked on Esquire's web site and tried to search for the article, but all I got was a bunch of stuff that had nothing to do with it.  I had looked at Esquire before in my youth but was not impressed with it.  I understand that Hugh Hefner worked there before he founded Playboy.  That's all I know about it.  If you click on the [574] at the end of the quote, it will take you to an ad for the Esquire article that was printed in the Village Voice.  I think that was some kind of smart alecky satire rag, so I don't know whether or not the ad was genuine.  I sent an email to the John Birch Society requesting any information they might have on the subject, so I might get something out of that.  While I have not definitively proven my case as yet, I think I have established that the "chicks up front" thing is something more than a fabrication of my imagination.
