Original Toronto Star caption: The world of the hippies: Olga and Steve (at left) relax in their apartment with Harry; their room-mate and a friend. The apartment also boasts a few sticks of furniture and a cat named Timothy; after Dr. Timothy Leary; the LSD high priest. Steve and Olga come from conventional middle-class backgrounds but are in revolt against the world of 'normals.' Hippy way of life is essentially religious-although hostile to traditional religion-and emphasizes non-violence; love of neighbor and non-discrimination.
