Dear TeX.!ls Human Rights Foundation,
rm sorry I haven'tsentanymoneyearlier.
The significance of Baker vs. Wade, your
court challenge to TeX.!ls Penal Code Sec·
tion 21.06 (the homosexual conduct sta·
tute). which is starting THIS MONTH, on
June 15. finally hit me.
I knew that 21.06 legalizes police har•
assment 1md invasion of privacy, as well as
justifying discrimination against gay women
and men. But I didn't realize that
Baker vs. Wade is the first bme a state
criminal statute aimed solely at gays is
being directly attacked as being unconstitutional.
All the other "sodomy law·• cases.
like the recent New York one. have been
based on technicalities. The decision in this
case will have a profound effect on all gay
people for decades.
The expense of bringing expert wit·
nesses in psychology, sexology. the family,
religion and cnminology to Dallas for the
trial will be considerable. But this is the
moment when we must fling all our
resources into the battle. Every contri·
bution will help and is needed immediately.
This will be a historic moment for human
rights. Thank you for bringing it about

The Methodist Church and Bent
While watching the performance of Bent
by the Genesius Players. I became fixated
on II poignant moment which few others
have mentioned. Max. a prisoner in 11
concentration camp. muses about how
nice ,t would be to fit in. He remarks there
must be gay Nazis nnd that the Nazis seem
to enjoy singing the · old favorites:· Of
course. Max does not stay in this reverie
very long. ns he remembers where he is and
why he is there.
I can relate perfectly to this scene, because
I often have similar feelings regarding my
being a Christian and a member of the
United Methodist Church.
Wenn wir marschieren and the Horst
Wessel song are starring and inspiring. So
are Glorious Things of Thee are Spoken
and A Charge to Keep I Have. But just as
Max knows he does not belong to the group
which sangs his songs, I know I don't belong
to the group which sings mine.
How nice ,t would be to be a regular, non•
activist church member, to attend those
covered-dish dinners and sing those old
favorites. But I can·t To do so would be
forgetting the church is my oppressor. It
would be forgetting that the church created
the chmate of opinion in which Jews and
homosexuals perished in the Holocaust It
would be forgetting that the United Methe·
dist Church. ns late as 1981, withdrew
funding from the Austin product.Ion of
Bent and. 1n so doing. threw a smug nnd
knowing wink at Hatler I w,11 not forget

Supreme Court Won't
Uphold N.Y. Sodomy Law
Washmqton D <.: - The US. Supre'Tle
Court reh,Jed May 18 to disturb a New York
Court of Appeals •t..hng that had struck
down the New York sodomy law as uncor
stitutional
As a result. the New York dec1s1on Is now
final and can serve as a precedent for court
challenges to sodomy laws m some two
dozen states. ,ncludmg Texas.
The Supreme Court action cont;asted
v.1th ,ts earlier dec1s1ons on sodomy laws.
W,th,n the past f,ve years. ,t had upheld a
lov.er Federal courts dec1S1on ruting Virg,nia·s
sodomy law const1tut1onal and had dism1s·
sedan appeal seeking to have North Caro·
hna's law stricken.
Several gay legal authorities stated that
they feel the Supreme Court·s recent sod·
omy dec1s1ons show a reluctance by the
court to decide the issues and a willingness
to let lower courts do as they see fit
One gay rights lawyer expressed disap·
po,ntment at the May 18 ruling. asserting
that he would rather have a final Supreme
Court decision, even ,f it upheld sodomy
laws.
This recent ruling came m the case of
People 1 Ono/re and was technically a
denial without dissent of the prosecutor's
petition for a wnt of certiorari ( permission to
appeal).

Crime Stoppers Offers
Reward in
Hollywood Shooting
Crime Stoppers is offering a S l.CXJO
reward for information leading to the arrest
and indictment of the person or persons
responsible for killing Carol Ann Oetting.
On March 28, 1980, Oetting. 42. was on
her way to The Hollywood at 304 W 4th to
meet a male companion. She parked her
car a black-over-gold 1968 Lincoln Conti·
ne~tal. in the 400 block of Guadalupe, just
north of an alley
Before leaving her car, Oetting locked
her purse in the trunk. Police think she then
walked through the alley toward the bar.
Moments later she fell on the pavement in
front of the building
When her friend. who was waiting there.
saw her fall he rushed to her side. She said
to him, 'Tve been shot" Oetting died a
short time later wrthout being able to provide
any information about her attacker.
The medical examiners office said she
died from a .22-caliber gunshot wound in
the chest Investigators theorize she might
have come upon a crime in progress or an
argumenl tried to intervene and was shot
Anyone with information about this case
should call Cnme Stoppers at 472-TIPS
( 4 72-84 77). Callers do not have to give their
names and calls are kept confidential
