                     INFORMING
                    ON THE YIPPIES 
                    The first page of Julie Maynard's
                    confidential informant report describes the trip she took
                    from Madison to New York City in March 1972 to attend
                    meetings about Yippee plans for demonstrations at the
                    Republican convention (NY-88 page 4). It was withheld in its
                    entirety for fourteen years as confidential source
                    information and then released as part of the 1997
                    settlement. It reports various comings and goings at a
                    conference at Stony Brook, none of which involved any
                    reports of plans for criminal activity. 
                     
                    This entire report had been published in an underground
                    newspaper in Madison in 1977 (see p. 89).
