Aleister Crowley Diary Entry

Saturday, 11 April 1942

 

 

[I Ching hexagram] 32.

     

11 o’c Marlborough St police Court. Corrida de Vacas! walked in: Billy Winter in the dock!! Got the benefit of the doubt about being drunk—first time there has been any doubt in 40 years! 4 Milne St.

     

Louis Wilkinson rang up—came round—great talk. Interrupted by Winter, who brought Parsons, late editor of late Daily Worker, who took 33 for Farley Press.

     

MAS [Maurice A. Sutherland] eluded W&P who threatened return. Fagged utterly, but played excellently 4-1. A queen trap: she had 12 squares to move to—all guarded! Not even a minor piece for her!
