"The initial impetus for the paper came from Allen, Cohen and head shop owners Ron and Jay Thelin, who offered to, put up the seed money to found an underground paper. In the, summer of 1966 a number of meetings were held in the, Haight-Ashbury district to discuss the idea of starting a, paper, attracting an eclectic group of interested people. The, result of these meetings was a paper called P. O. Frisco which, lasted for a single 12-page tabloid issue dated September 2,, 1966, under the editorship of Dan Elliot and Richard Sassoon (a, 31-year-old Yale-educated poet who had once been Sylvia Plath's, boyfriend) , operating out of a storefront on Frederick Street, in cooperation with members of the radical Progressive Labor, Party. "P. O." stood for "Psychedelphic Oracle," a title, suggested by Bruce Conner. P. O. Frisco was a compromise, between the various factions involved in founding the paper, which wound up satisfying no one, and the Thelin brothers, threatened to terminate their financial support unless the, paper was completely reinvented.
