Jane Wolfe Diary Entry Sunday, 26 February 1939
Friday night on City College campus a drama student was attacked by a "Sam-the Slugger" and died from wounds received early Saturday a.m. Somehow Regina [Regina Kahl] and the "Purple Cult" were dragged in. Last night Chief of Police Davis and 2 Inspectors were here, today several newspaper men, while tonight the Examiner man witnessed the Mass [Gnostic Mass], afterwards took photos of Regina, Smith [Wilfred Talbot Smith] and Lew in their robes at the altar.
Papers have articles—only one using the old Hearst tactics; Herald-Express (Hearst evening paper) which made up copy from the Examiner article. The H.-E. was here for photos this afternoon.
All a.m. I felt free and full of power. I feel exhilaration—a sense of everything moving out into the open, smoothly and strongly; the Work opening up without the past restrictions.
