... the Western Psychological Association decided to liven up its 1981 program
with a few tongue-in-cheek notices.  For example:
MORE SPORTS RESULTS
The Beverly Hills Freudians tied the Chicago Rogerians 0-0 last Saturday night.
The match started with a long period of silence while the Freudians waited for
the Rogerians to free associate and the Rogerians waited for the Freudians to
say something they could paraphrase.  The stalemate was broken when the
Freudians' best player took the offensive and interpreted the Rogerians'
silence as reflecting their anal-retentive personalities.  At this the
Rogerians' star player said "I hear you saying you think we're full of
ka-ka."  This started a fight and the match was called by officials.
CONVENTION REMINDER
No experiment was approved for the convention by the Human Subjects
Committee of the WPA Convention Planning Team.  If you notice smoke coming
from under a closed door, if you find a body on the hotel carpet, or if you
meet someone who orders you to press the 450-volt button, just react as you
would normally.
GROWTH CENTER REPAIR SERVICE

being genuine all the time?  Would you like to learn how to be a little phony
again?  Have you disclosed so much that you're beginning to avoid people? 
Have you touched so many people that they're all beginning to feel the same? 
Like to be a little dependent?  Are perfect orgasms beginning to bore you? 
Would you like, for once, not to express a feeling?  Or better yet, not be in
touch with it at all?  Come to us.  We promise to relieve you of the burden of
your great potential.
