| Transcript | CONNECTIONS ALGPC Candidates Night March 24 SUNDAY SOCIAL with FREE BEER, 4-8pm 10PM SHOW with KITTY UTTER and ALVINA GREASE THURSDAY SHOW 10PM MISS RIKI SABRINA ROSS Dallas Gay Alliance by Elliot Green The Dallas Gay Political Caucus changed its name to the Dallas Gay Alliance March 8. 1981. The name change came about after a half-hour debate on the inclusion of the word "lesbian" in the new name. The organization changed its name to Dallas Gay Alliance because of the group's growing involvement in activities outside the political realm and because many people felt the name "Gay Political Caucus" was misleading and prevented many members of the community from getting involved. Metro 7"imes GCS Gains CETA Employee Gay Community Services, the peer counselling and referral service for gays in Austin, gained a Volunteer Coordinator/ Community Liaison person in March. Working with GCS as part of the University Y staff, Fred Licari is the first paid staff person GCS has had. Fred's salary is funded through the Comprehensive Employment Training Act (CETA). a federal program due to expire September 30. 1981. GCS is one of the few gay organizations in the history of the CETA program to have had a CETA employee on its staff. Fight Back! You have a chance to strike back at the Moral Majority, but you have to take it right now. In fact, if it's after April 4, forget it It's already over. There are seven candidates in the mayor and city council elections who have been endorsed by the Austin Lesbian Gay Political Caucus and who support gay causes. Several of our candidates have Moral Majority-supported opponents, who are running well-financed and well-organized campaigns. Which candidates do you want running Austin for the next two years? Elections are won by being able to organize the voters, not simply by being right. The candidate who has the most people making phone calls to voters, distributing literature and taking people to the polls on election day, is the one who usually wins. This is a time when YOU, a single individual, can make a big difference. You are needed desperately, MOW, in these critical last days of the election. Please volunteer to help Bob Binder and the ALGPC endorsed candidate in your precinct lt may be the best thing you do for yourself this year. Legal Services in Civil and Criminal Matters DOUGLAS D.
