John Wilcock started the Underground Press Syndicate (UPS) while working for the East Village Other. He partnered with Tom Forcade (who moved to New York City from Arizona) to develop the concept. At the time, Forcade was publishing a best-of alternative press magazine called Orpheus. Forcade would later use UPS as a springboard to help create his own new national publication, High Times.
