Wonder what she'd look like naked today? Ugh!

That's not a "butt" ...it's just a "butt crack". Commonly seen on builders and anyone under the age of 30 wearing jeans these days.

Typical "underground" type rag of the era, common at many colleges around the country. Very Cool!
I'll have to dig some of mine out to show you. Thanks for sharing.

Here's some info on yours here- http://collections.swco.ttu.edu/handle/10605/121-

The Catalyst" was a controversial, underground student newspaper at Texas Tech University during a time of political, social and academic upheaval. It was comprised of articles, reviews, editorials, satires, parodies and political statements. The Vietnam War, politics, protests, racial discord, and drug use were the most common themes discussed. Numerous attempts were made by the university and City of Lubbock to shut down the paper. In 1970, a lawsuit was filed on behalf of The Catalyst by The Channing Club, a Texas Tech student youth group organized by the Unitarian Church. The ruling in favor of The Catalyst is one of the most notable court cases in the area of freedom of the press for school newspapers. It is often cited in cases of censorship of student presses. A copy of the proceeding's transcript is available through interlibrary loan.
