Hippiehaven invites meditation on a Mexican beach village
An AP described relaxed wandering youths at El Paradiso on a Pacific coast beach near the Gulf of Tehuantepec. Paul, Stan, Peggy, Ted, and Miles share stories, drugs, and hopes of travel, with locals noting their attitudes toward suburbia and freedom as they contemplate future moves including Alaska and Europe. The piece closes with a music note about a Boston Symphony Philadelphia Orchestra exchange set for next summer at Saratoga and Tanglewood.

Singapore’s urban renewal reshapes island city life
Singapore, under Lee Kuan Yew’s leadership, undergoes dramatic change as Orchard Road promenades bustle with miniskirts and Western residents. Rents rise with 500 dollar apartments nearing prime districts, while one third of 2 million live in subsidized housing. Skyscrapers rise near Robinson Road, 50 story offices appear, and 61 hotels with 4,739 rooms plus 20 more with 4,304 rooms are built. Raffles Place traffic is reworked. Peoples Park replaces old noodle markets with shops and offices. Prime Minister’s father remains in a repair shop nearby as urban renewal alters daily life.
