Caption: The L.A. Fine Arts Squad—Vic Henderson, Terry Shoonhoven [sic], Jim Frazen [sic], and Leonard Koren—painted the Brooks Street (top) and Speedway walls eerily mirroring but not mirroring the neighborhood scenes shown at right: Brooks Street depopulated and snowy Speedway. The headline reads, "GUERRILLA CHIEF RUBEN, NIXON NEGOTIATE."
