The EOH was an important vehicle for transmitting Warren's findings to a larger public.  Unfortunately, a leftist-feminist cabal attacked the volume for failing to propogate their 'revolutionary' views.  Among the other complainants, this group disapproved of the pseudonym Evelyn Gettone, employed (along with Ward Houser) by both Warren and Wayne Dynes.
 +

In 1995 the cabal used the controversy to accomplish its aim of suppressing the Encyclopedia.  With professed outrage over the name Evelyn Gettone having been used by men, and wielding threats of boycotts, they persuaded Garland publishing to withdraw the Encyclopedia despite the fact that no significant inaccuracies had been detected.  (Before Stonewall, by Vern L. Bullough).

Besides Dynes, those who benefited from [Johansson's] tutelage included Gene Rice, John Lauritsen, David Thorstad, Jonathan Katz, James Steakley, Steve Alt. (p. 336)

He always professed to be an ephebophile, attracted to late adolescents, but with a guru such as Eglinton - author of the 'bible of the pederasts', cowritten with Warren - well who knows?  John Lauritsen recounts to this day with astonishment how he and Warren once were invited by Eglinton to meet for dinner at a good New York restaurant. When they arrived, Eglinton already was seated, outfitted from head to toe, for reasons he didn't explain, in a Santa Clause costume. He proceeded to dine, drink and converse as if there were nothing out of the ordinary about his apparel.
 +
 +
Later, a couple of years before Warren's death, Eglinto was sentenced in California for activities with two brothers of nine and eleven [...]. I said to Warren, 'A little money goes a long way in prison.  Why don't I send him some?'
 +
 +
To my surprise, Warren became terribly agitated, more upset than I'd ever seen him. He exclaimed 'We could get into trouble'.
 +
 +
I replied 'But I've never done anything felonious' ... Warren was so perturbed, however, that I broke off the conversation When I again brought up the subject several days later, he was equally adamant, and I dropped it.  His fearfulness made me wonder if his name change, refusal to be photographed, estrangement from his family, and secrecy about his erotic encounters might stem from legal trouble, possibly for underage sex.  At some point or other, had Warren himself played 'Santa'?
