It's a bit Grand Guignol, a bit Madame Tussaud, a bit Charles Addams, and all great fun. The Klee Wyk press releases are fun, too, especially the committee fi'l~ii~,~~!f;~; lists: "Assisting Alice Barnhart are Glo- tion Village this week to benefit the University of San Diego, consume a tomato-stuffed-with-chicken-salad lunch, and get the message for fall from Robinson's. They saw and cheered a zingy, fast-paced fashion parade (28 mod- els, 15 scenes) that went without a hitch. (Or almost without a hitch. One of the male models did his turn on .the runway with his zipper unzipped, but that's life.) Catherine Barber was chairwom- an of the annual benefit for the USD student aid fund. The party is spon- sored by the university auxiliary. The ladies loved the show, even Robinson's Nornie Keller: "There's no way 1 could wear boots or knick- erS t but 1 can dream, can't I?"

From 1966 through 1969, Marchetti was a staff offi• cer in the CIA director's olfice - apparently during the same period he said the plan was developed. But he said yesterday he did not know of the plan when he was in the CIA and learned of it only recently from Ridenhour. In his speech, Marchetti argued that the CIA's clan- destine operations should be stopped or restricted, al- though its analytic func- tions should continue. He also said that domes- tic spying is "unforgiveable and unjustifiable," and that the claim it is needed for national security is falla- cious. "If we're so afraid of the Russians, wh do we sell them wheat and lipstick?" he asked. Marchetti was a CIA agent for 14 years.

Victor Marchetti, author of th • book "The CIA and the Cult or Intelligence," said the plan was "to detain pPOple, put them in prison and take over the news media" Marchetti offered little proof of his claim other tha'l to say details will come out In a soon-to-be relea d article by reporter Ron Rid nhour In the New 'Nmes magazine.

Marchetti made his com- m nts during a press con- ferenc prior to a speech last night at the University of San Diego The speech was part of a nationwide tour designed to promote his book Th • plan for the military takeover was called Opera- tion Garden Plot, he said.
