Survival Car Jubilantly delivered
A short, jubilant, and colorful pro-cession
pushed its way down Bascom
Avenue in Los Gatos Saturday morn-ing,
signaling the unofficial beginning
of Survival Faire.
The parade had passers-by and driv-ers
agape, for it was the organizers of
Survival Faire "delivering" the 1970
Maverick that will be buried in front
of the old cafeteria off Seventh Street
on Friday.
Leading the merry band were two
Tennessee walking horses. Immediate-ly
behind was student Ross Cutler
dressed in a white jump suit and green
cape, carrying a green-an-white "En-vironment
Flag." Cutler portrayed
"Ecoman."
The heart of the procession was the
brand new canary yellow Maverick,
gaily festooned with posters, balloons,
and flags.. Inside the Ford were six
Mother Earth girls, outfitted in ankle-length
green robes. Alette Lundeberg
sat behind the wheel.
Pushing the car (at no time was the
engine started) were eight members of
Kappa Sigma fraternity, each wearing
a white T-shirt with the words "Eco-logical
Survival"" stenciled on the back.
Bringing, up- the rear was a one-pa-trol-
car. Los Gatos police escort.
A gaggle of photographers, Survival
Faire veterans, and newsmen tripped
along the sidewalk beside the car.

auto onto Seventh Street. Leading the parade here are four Mother
Earth girls.

Mark Tigan that the procession impeding traffic.
The auto was then towed to the of Fourth and San Carlos streets,
where it was pushed onto Seventh
Street for a brief picture taking and then retired to the parking
garage, where it will rest during evenings.
The car will "lie in state" on Street throughout the Faire, be buried on Friday at noon.
The delivery of the car took morning. About 50 Survival Faire and representatives of the media

members of Humanities 160 that is sponsoring the Faire, presented
salesman Chuck Farmer with a check
for $1,500, completing the sale. A $1,down payment was made last week.
After some initial tenseness, a port was established, and Farmei
wound up wearing a Survival Fair<
button, and buying a $1 share of auto.
As soon as the keys changed hands
