Although the word ''hippies'' made other isolated appearances in print during the early 1960s, the first use of the term on the West Coast appeared on September 5, 1965, in the article, "A New Haven for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatniks Beatniks]", by San Francisco journalist Michael Fallon. In that article, Fallon wrote about the Blue Unicorn [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffeehouse coffeehouse], using the term ''hippie'' to refer to the new [[generation]] of beatniks who had moved from North Beach into the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haight-Ashbury,_San_Francisco,_California Haight-Ashbury] district. New York Times editor and usage writer Theodore M. Bernstein said the paper changed the spelling from hippy to hippie to avoid the [[ambiguous]] description of clothing as hippy fashions.
