HOUSTON
BOASTS
FINEST
GAV CLUB
IN US
We have arrived is an understatement. The Palace Club
and Sky Terrace, 3400 Montrose, Penthouse, in its
splendor equals any Houston Club. The Houston Club,
Petroleum Club or Houston Racquet Club - any other in
the city cannot compare to the posh atmosphere at the
Palace Club.
The penthouse where the Palace Club is located was
for many years "Top of the Mark", a well known
"straight" club and restaurant.
In excess of $100,000.00 has been spent in the new
Palace Club and Sky Terrace to give the Homophile
Society the finest club of this type in the country. There
are three bars, two terraces, dance floor and clubroom.
Crystal chandaliers, Roman pillars, statues, fountains,
elegant furnishings all go to make up this fine club.
Floor space, including the terraces is equal to one/fourth
of a city block. The Houston skyline is seen to advantage
from any section of the Palace.
This club is not new in name but operated for some
months on Berry street before being destroyed by fire.
Al I must take a back seat to the owners for their tremen•
dous and splendid comeback.

On or about the 22nd day of September 1968 Jimmy
Spencer Rose and Cyril James Dunn, CQmmitted acts
of sodomy, in that Jimmy Spencer Rose did then and
there place his penis in the mouth of another human
being, Cyril James Dunn, for the purpose of carnal
copulation with the said Cyril James Dunn.
This ·ls the jnditement handed down by the Harris County
Grand Jury.
In July of this year U. S. District Judge Allen 8. Hannay
denied the request for a federal three-judge panel to
consider the constitutionality of Texas sodomy law.
Cyril J. Dunn, 45, charged with sodomy, filed the suit
asking for an injunction to halt his trial in 177th District
Court. A jury was picked Monday and testimony was
due to begin Tuesday.
Dunn was arrested in a downtown Houston parking lot
September 22, 1968.
The trial held before District Judge Miron A. Love
ended in a hung-jury, six for dismissal and six for
conviction.
Disposition of Case No. 136774 is yet to be decided,
watch the Nuntius for the outcome.

THE EDITOR'S SPOT
We of the Nuntius wish to thank all of the advertisers
and readers for their support of this publication. The
paper has been generally well received in the Houston
area as wel I as elsewhere.
We have and will continue to make mistakes, some
pointedly and some because we do not know better. We
will try to improve if our readers will bear with us. A
new job is hard and this is what you might call the
second day for us with this issue.
Letters received have been helpful in letting us know
what you want. They also tell us what we do wrong.
This criticism, good or bad, is needed.
There were two errors purposely made. Our paper is the
Nuntius, not "tius", precident, not "pres." Your reaction
to the two above was suprising. There were eleven
letters regarding the name and thirty four about precident.
Lacking is more intrest in our "Want Ads.'-' This is a
service that we would I ike you to use.
Our subscription rates have been revised as postage and
handling was not what we anticipated. Check this and if
you have a friend that might I ike our publication, send
him or her one as a gift. This will help the outsiders
know just what is going on in our area.
We have had numerous request about the paper from other
cities in the state. As soon as possible the editor or a
representative of the Nuntiu s wi 11 try to contact personally
the people who have shown intrest.
If you live in Dallas, Son Antonio, Corpus or any other
section where the activitys are of intrest to our readers,
drop us a line and tell about it. We also will need people
to give us monthly news from out of our city, if you wish
to do this let us know.
Below are two of the letters mentioned herein and one
from an advertiser.
Sirs (or is it Medames?)
Thanks again,
Phil Fronk
I really hate to be pedantic, but if you will check
your jim-dandy Latin dictionary you will find the Latin
for messenger is NUNTIUS! Otherwise you're off to a
great start.
Yours,

Dear C. B.
Thanks for the note and lesson in spelling, not that we
have too much use for Latin. Cal led the Latin department
at U of H looking for the Latin for "informer" and was
told there was none, is this correct?

Court
Gets
Sex
Case
The routine arrest of Alvin Leon Buchanan, a homosexual
in a Dal las restroom last year has wound up in the
Supreme Court as a challenge to all state laws making
"unnatural sex acts" a crime.
The explosive test case has been brought to the high
court by Texas Atty. Gen. Crawford C. Martin in a
defense of the state's sodomy law, found unconstitutional
last January by a three-judge federal court in Dallas.
The confessed homosexual is cross-appealing with a
second homosexual. Travis Lee Strickland, to broaden
the district court's decision into an ironclad protection
of private homosexual conduct.
Should the justices accept the dispute when the new
term opens in the fall, all states could be barred from
making any kind of private sexual conduct between consenting
adults a crime.
The Supreme court first pronounced a constitutional right
of privacy in 1965 when it struck down Connecticut's
birth control low. The court said the state could not
forbid married couples from using contraceptive devices.
Att. Gen. Mortin, in appealing, soys states should be
allowed to draw a line between "the mortal union of
intercourse from which off spring ore born" and sodomy,
which he said, "often leads to di stoste, revulsion and
divorce."
On the other side stand Buchanon, Strickland and their
lawyer, Henry J. McClusky Jr. of Dallas, who is arguing
that all adults, single or married, homosexual or hetrosexuol,
hove a constitutional right of privacy that states
cannot i nvode.
The three judges in Dallas, Sarah T. Hughes, Irving L.
Goldberg and William M. Taylor Jr., seemed influenced
most by the argument of a married couple, Dal las carpenter
Michael Craig Gibson and his wife, Janet, that they,
too, feared prosecution.
The Supreme Court does not hove to rule in the case.
Should the high court bock away, the Texas Legislature
presumably would be free to write a new sodomy law
aimed more directly to homosexuals and clearly protecting
married couples from prosecution.

HOUSTON HCOMETS"
LOSE TO ATLANTA'S
HLORELIE LADIES"
As you al I know, Houston recently ployed host to softball
teams from all over the United States, Canada and
Mexico. The Invitational Tournament was ployed in
Memorial Pork Stadiums one and two on July 10th, 11th
and 12th. The Regional T ournoment was ployed on July
17th, 18th and 19th by teams from al I the major cities
in Texas.
I did not get to see al I the games as I hod wished to,
but then again if we all had the time we wonted, to do
the things we wonted, life would really be a bowl of
cherries.
However, I did get to see the local teams. The "Comets"
play the Atlanta, Georgia "Lorelie Ladies" in the final
game of the Invitational. The Comets played one of the
finest games I hove had the pleasure to witness. Even
though they lost to the "Lorelie Ladies" 4 - 1. All our
hearts were rooting for them and our throats were sore
from shouting.
The Roaring 60's Club had the pleasure to present again,
a case of pink champoigne to the Lorelie Ladies to help
them celebrate their victory. This is the third year the
"Lorelie Ladies" hove won the Invitational.
For those of you who ore not aware of it, the Roaring
60's Club presents a case of champoigne to the winning
team every year.
If any of our home teams ever won the tournament, I
think the lease we could do is give them a Ticker Tape
Parade down Westheimer Street. (Homo Heights) as it
has been not so lovingly referred to.
This litt le note is being written on the patio under the
cottage of the "Bear's Den" on the beaut i fu I serene,
tranquil Trinity River . \1/e are located halfway between
Liberty and Livingston, Texas.
"Poppo Bear" (Rita) is leisurely mowing the lawn, 50'
x 100', while yours truly, "Momma Bear" (Ricc i) is relaxing
with a cool one in one hand and a pen in the
other.
Y.'hot a glorious way to spend a wel I earned, wel I deserved
day off. \'!i sh all our customers and readers of
the Nuntius were here to enjoy all this.
I hod not meant to deviate from the original subject, but
nostalgia got the best of me.
We 11, I'd better put my pen and my empty con down and
soy so long for now from the ''Bear 's Den."
Lovingly,
"Momma Bear"
Editors Note: Thanks "Momma", had some of the g irls
that hod promised to cover this annual affa ir we would
hove hod scores and pictures. With a I ittle cooperat ion
from the girls we con let readers elsewhere know that
"gay girls" in Houston are act ive in many things. If
you hove a story or know onyth i ng of i ntrest to I et the

by
Don Petrulengro Estrolito
(Spiritual Psychologist)
Since I began my work under Sybil Leek, internationally
renowned witch and astrologist, I hove found on attraction-
link between the occult and the gay scene. I think
this is because of the degree of sensitivity found in the
gay individual, along with his unusual willingness to
accept new and unique experiences.
Not long ago I discussed the matter with a famous
psychic practictioner, astronomis Dominicus Rex (\irho
is now reading fortunes at Westheimer's new gay club,
Bullseye). Rex's experience has been that gay people,
by in large, possess a significantly higher degree of
"inert Psychic preception" than the average male.
As a minority group, the gay crowd needs all the help
it can get. Thus, we have inspired the interests of such
sympathetic streights as Rex and Madame Leek, who
feel that spiritual influer,ces could greatly benefit this
important, swinging sub-culture.
A suprising number of warlocks, sensitives, and mediums
are gay or bi. (As a matter of fact it was a former trick
who introduced me to this wonderful, exciting world of
the occult).
So, beaut iful friends, reap the benifits of my psychic
experences and I invite you to submit your questions
to this paper for future prediction.

An Attack
On Perils
Of Zippers
London
A modern-day Dr. Watson has uncovered a problem that
calls for all the ingenuity of a Sherlock Holmes - - how
to solve the perils of a man's zipper fly.
In a letter to the British Medical Journal, Dr. Claude
Watson makes a plea for preventive action to save men
from the painful predicament which occurs when they
zip their pants carelessly.
He suggested that the answer could lie in the designing
of a protective flap and warned that the danger was worse
in hot weather because some men ~ nd not to wear shorts
in summer.
Dr. Watson, from Penrhyndeudraeth, 1/.'ales, referred to
the unhappy p Ii ght of two boys he recent I y helped get
unstuck.
" (Only by the exercise of considerable slight of hand
was I able to perform the necessary maneuver to release
them, and thus retain my reputation as the medical
expert in the surgery,)" he said.
Brit ish men's fashion designer "Mr. Fish" said he
has the answer - - SKIRTS.
HOMOSCOPE
AQUARIUS
Troubled emotions this month. The first week yeilds
attractive marriage possibility which will be shown to
be deceptive.
PICES
Resist the serious side of your feelings. Time to en joy
superficial relationships. August great for visiting outof-
town friends.
SPECIAL FORCAST: LEO
Avoid being pushy and domineer ing . You ore going to
be concerned with finance in September, but November
starts wonderful new soc ial activities. You are a great
host, but don't overspend. The coming year is happy
and blessful, but watch your health closely. Good
prospects for marriage in the winter.

~~ NOTIONS
Great, isn't it, not to have to menu plan and be able
to let at least the cook off on Wednesdays. You never
know what to expect at the Tradewinds at 7:00. I don't
think Payne knows til Wednesday morning - but you can
bet it w i 11 be good .
"Camp Time" there is a boost to the budget and attracts
a fun crowd worth looking over.
After three years the "6 ring, and do" your own steak
bit at "La Caja" has become a Houston tradition. On
a recent trip to Atlanta this traveling tyrant was asked
if they still have this feature - answered that as long
as pore ole Granny can prepare the great "fixins" to
go with your own steak guess it will continue. While I
had the chance I mentioned some of the new features of
La Box and also told of the many new places opened
in the old home town.
On the subject of new spots ran into some attractive
goils from San Antonio the other PM, in town for the
Annual Soft Ball Tournament. Recommended they visit
a very attractive new spot for our crowd that started
off very wel I. Got the nicer group that frequented the
Chelsea. The bartender co-owner was standing at the
far end of the bar descussing his love-life with a
friend. Only two other customers in the place. The
girls from S. A. sat near the front. Finally after waiting
longer than most including this writer, one of the girls
got up - went to the bar and ordered for the group.
Needless to say - didn't stay for another.
Couplea years ago you could usually run into several
fun and pleasant to look at groups from that city on week
ends - think maybe this sort of welcome and service
sends them elsewhere when they want to get out of
town for a week end. Anyway it's a great way to bui Id
up a crowd in a new spot, isn't it?
To pitch in a rose after a garlic pod. What do you
suppose is the reason the Galleon has for so long remained
one of the most well packed and popular spots
for a crowd noted, for being fickled in patronizing Bars?
Could it be that wheather packed or just full - it is
seldom that you can count to 69 without having your
favorite beverage in hand.
I think that it takes good service and a fast greeting
to keep them coming back. Might mention to your better
half or your next Friday trick that the spread there at
7:30 is always a treat - They come up with some fine
culinary shows.
There is another spot that tries on Friday nights, but
think I'll save my next garlic pod for an individual

The gorl ic goes to on individual that recently without
informing employers - landlord or the few friends he
has left, decided he needed a vocation in Miami - ,:ind
took same at the expence of the above mentioned.
Understand he is back working in a spot recently opened.
Think we should all drop in and let him know we appreciate
his doing his part for our image - Most of us
core ! ! :
Before sending this in to an editor who for all his charm
and ability doesn't know a Payne from on agony and
still isn't sure how he is going to spell the name of this
publication. I hove a couple of cheerful notes: Understand
that a couple of our favorites have just returned
from a months visit to points west. Haven't had a chance
to have one of our afternoon sessions to discuss the
trip but looking forward to it.
The crowd around Elgin and Louisiana are really glad
they didn't back Mother up - we sure would miss her.
Louisianos best looking export, now selling two wheelers
in Huntsville managed a coup la trips down our way
to do the rounds with his local wheeler (motor bike,
that is) - tell ya - that Cajun always makes Houston
look better.
Reading all this you would think that the fun spots are
al I the old home town has to offer - not so - look
through this chronicle and you will see that you can
get everything from a hair-cut to a free honeymoon or
a bath (my ad will appear later} from your friends -
the people you know and see at said fun spots - support
them, they do you.
Tell me that the show at the Exile is the greatest.
Don't know but it must be - I went by to check it out
and the place was so crowded couldn't get in.
Nice to be able to drop in the Mid-Towne and chat
with "Mother T."
Anything our readers or haters think Nanny should know
about or check out - drop me a note at the pub Ii shers
office. If the broomstick is out-of-order I'll get the
"Black Widow" from the French Embassy to run me out
on his motor - - -

It hos been brought to tl,e attention of the paper that
the "Vice" ore working overtime in Memorial Pork.
Careful "girls" action here could furnish you with a
free r ide downtown, cost you money, emboros sment and
perhaps a great deal of time away from home. It is our
understanding that the state supported institutions ore
not at al I what we hear they ore! If you must cruse a
toilet and your equipment at home is now working -
spend a d ime and be at least a little safe. Public "johns"
ore just that - publ ic - pay for what you get or charged
for what you almost hod .
The round-robin at Lovett Boulevard, Roseland, Hawthorne,
Stratford, Californ ia, Avondale - well, you know
the area better than I. This is not risky but ju st dongerou
s as h---. There hove been many, many crusy queens
beaten, stabbed, robbed and almost killed from picking
up tr icks in this area. This bod news area is a defin ite
"No-No".
It is difficult to understand the night window shoppers,
Sunnylond Furniture, Main and Tuom. I hear they ore
sell ing more than buying, and if they do buy it will be
with your money. If this is your bog, hit um Shirley, be
a " Hungry Hanno", wind up a • 'Starving Faggot".
A prime example of the above is on incident which
happened this post Monday about eleven PM. Two gays
picked up at the Greyhound Bus Station two teen-age
boys . After driving around for some time the two tricks
pulled out knives and things began to happen. The
dr iver of the car was robbed as was his companion. The
driver was told to go on and leave his compan ion with
them on a corner in the near North Side. He drove off
looking for help of some kind. Return ing to where he
hod left h is companion, he found h im lying on the ground
with a stab wound in his bock and his stomach cut
open. Putting him in the car and rushing to a downtown
hospital where treatment was not available he then went
to Ben Taub. The stab v ictum was in very critical
condition for several days, ofter much blood and stitching
he will pull through . Is sex at this price worth it???

The Other Place, yes and what a place, in Beaumont
across from a lumber store on South 4th Street. Hove
you heard about it? I sure hadn't until Payne asked me
to contact Jody regarding space in the paper. Aust;n
and I (Hie couldn't leave the Houston "Johns" long
enough to accompany me) drove over on a Monday and
the bar was pocked. They hove dancing, pool, and the
friendliest people. There seem to be few strangers and
the boys and girls get on well together at this bar.
Austin is a swinger and danced almost every dance.
Jody cal led Thelma at The Dump so dashed off downtown
to see her. Do not believe the name as this spot is far
from being a dump, and hosted by a "real lady". Met
people from Lake Charles, Orange and had a ball. One
fellow from Denver, Colorado - - do you think he was
lost? Business on Monday here was also very good,
just wonder what week-ends are like? The people in
this area sure know how to enjoy everything and everyone
- g ive it a try - a short drive for a real fun evening.
Arrived home at daylight the next morning and Austin
took the day off to - - rest?
GALVESTON-Tired,
gosh yes, three tr ips to Galveston, crazy, must
be, but this is a summer must for everyone. Weekends!
would you believe anytime, day or night, there is always
activity on the "Is le".
At Robert's Lafittes, mid week, stopped in to talk with
Bernard and was told to be quiet "Robert was on".
About that time a big titted bitch came out on stage,
sure enough, Robert was on, doing great with some
Fanny Flagg stuff. I bet Fanny is jealous of this "girl"
Robert was behind the bar at the LaCaja for almost a
year before taking over Lafittes in May. If you like to
be on stage, be upstaged by Robert, bring your best drag
and music and you're welcome at this gay spot anytime.
Thinking of seeing new faces, there were a few but
felt right at home with all the "home folks". Dale does
a swell job behind the bar, wonder how fast he is outside
it? This exciting spot on the "Isle" is now open
until 2am.
Had you heard that the Kon Tiki burned, well it did,
seems strange, it not being in Houston and all. Out

gee, do al I the good looking people have to go to the
same place. Dancing and mixed drinks and people with
enough on to "protect their property but not enough to
obstruct the view" - nothing lacking here!
Dancing, drinking and fruitless crusing makes one
"soggy and hard to smoke" so went next door and
up the stair to "Gym Baths" for a relaxing steam and
shower. Sock it to um, would you believe, have you
ever. Adjetives can't describe the enjoyment one can
hove here, upstairs? Yes- but the trip is worth it.

whoever will contact the paper we will let the readers
know. I also hear about another place there called the
"Show????, something or other located on the beach.
Perhaps they will get wind of this and let me know what
to advise our readers.
Texas is a big place, Houston being the larger of courEe
comes first but wil I try in the very near future to toke
in some of the "provinces" such as Callas, San Antonio, ·
Austin, Corpus Christi etc.
If the information about places mentioned here is hard
to believe - go see for yourself!

Wei I, now, after that most relaxing two hours crawled
down the stair to look for a place to rest. Yes, you
read me, rest! Ken's Rooms, upstairs again, at 407½ -
25th Street, next door and over Lofittes was the closest
and most reasonable for a tired body. Life on the Isle
is just too much. Ken's is a hotel for Men only, and
there are "real men" there. Accommodations for anyone
and everyone, a bunk room if your funds are low or
you hate being alone is just the place for you to really
learn how to live. If stopping overnight on the Isle, stay
with Bob, he is the head - man? . If the street door is
locked - ask at Lafittes for the know how to get it open.
FORT \NORTH-The
Old House! A gay club in Fort Worth? Yes there is
such a place. Seems everyone knows of it except me
but will pass on what I have heard until I can get up
there and see for myself. Rock and Barry must sure get
around as all the bar personel in Galveston soy what
fine fellows they ore. The Old House is located 8 miles
west on U.S. 80 out of Fort Worth and if there is need
for directions call 244-9879. It seems everything is very
convient and nice here, good food, just al I one needs to
hove a fun time, can't wait to visit this club.
In "nosing" around hove been told, now this is just
heresay, you understand, that their ore two boys from
off the Isle working on a new swank bar on Broadway.
Will it be gay? When will it open? If John or Jimmy or

Hie! What was M. C. talking about? More bar space!
Saying Les had plans to do this, guess he will but
can't see how. I'm going to watch for this improvement.
The new rest rooms are wonderful, you two fellows sure
work at keeping the place "ship shape". Your selection
of help and your helps method of handling the bar is
just great. Bill, you make baring a pleasure for sure,
keep up the good work and we'll be seeing you through
the crowd. What's this you say! Les is going to give
The Galleon a new look! Looks great now.
700 people! That's what I thought she said tool I have
been places before but this is just wall to wall people,
can't understand why Ricci and Rita didn't have the
after game show and party in the bal I park and let them
play ball in the Club. The games were great and attendance
even better, girls from all over. At the Roaring
60's - all this happens - great shows too.
Paul at Scene I, yes he must have a temper! Everyone
does. It is his job to smile and I don't know how he
remembers everyone's name. Always a pleasure here.
Keg party going well and everyone sure has fun. You
say the school teacher is still at the pool table! She
is getting better all the time. Uh Miss B.?
Dennis at LaBoheme, packing them in, had to squeeze
in for a drink. This is one more cool place to spend
time, there are no strangers here at LaBoheme. Your
friendly fast service keeps everyone happy and if you're
not careful, Dennis, you will bounce the ball into the
"big league". Can't see what this kids got but it must
be special.
Stop here! That's not Goy! Since when? Lost night! Yes
you will find the Bullseye Club gay as a goose from
Dishwasher to operator. This new club on the circuit -
has everything. Organizing a place this size, getting
cooks, waiters, etc., tokes time. We'll bear with you
Richard and hove breakfast ofter all are closed. Dance
floor cozy and worm, clubroom and bar comfortable and
cool, quiet room, soundproof but gloss where all activities
con be seen. Welcome to the group "Bullseye".
Seeing Jack at The Numbers, was shocked, had no idea
he had to have field glasses to see what was going on?
What, you're watching the Palace Club, I just came from
there, let me see! Wei I I 'I I be, you con see the penthouse
and oil the activity. What! 25¢ to rent your glosses!
The Numbers is the most pleasant place to drink and

der who makes smart cracks all the time. Nose, where
he gets oil he tells will never be known. If you hove
a question about anything, just ask him and if he doesn't
know the answer, will make one up.
He's done it again! dancing in a beer bar, yes this is
what "Big George" is up to. The Red Room will be the
first in Houston to have a dance lisence. What more can
be done for this swinging bar. You just watch them, or
should Lillian be warned that she may be moved out if
this groupe keeps pushing.
On the "Square", Ken at Jaybird News is going great
guns. Understand he is looking for another location -
expansion means good business. We are oil behind you -
just advise us when and where so we con spread the
NEWS.
Club Romulus is smart, what a gathering of desireobles.
Organization is not lacking in this well oiled operation.
Like a good machine, the operator directs it, hots off to
Scotty, an experienced director. Or should I say "Kelly?"
This fine Club has good parking, ample dance floor,
live band for dancing, beautiful people to look at and
be with.
Stumbling around by this time pass over to the Plantation
Club on Montrose. Good crowd, fine music and service,
always a fun time. Hi Gene, missed seeing you but your
help is on the gogo.
Welcome home "Granny", did you get your nose out of
AUGUST 1970 NUNTIUS PAGE 17
joint on your vacation or something happen here. Jerk the
kink out, get back in the sw;ng and we will all look forward
to that good old "Granny greeting" to the gala
LaCaja's many patfons.
The biggest happening has - Palace Club and Sky
Terrace. I think just about everybody was at the open ing,
that is everyone except Jack at the Numbers and he
didn't miss much with his glasses, just wonder what he
thought of the music? If by any small chance you missed
going, do so as it is a place to see and enjoy - you see
faces from the other location that welcomes you with a
smile (smug as it may be) from heads atop the smart new
jackets with the PC on them. You see other faces too,
Rosemary Cluney, yes that's her. Ron, that's too much
booze in that drink.
Management of this swank Club have few request of the
patrons. Sports wear acceptable, jeans and cut-offs on
Sunday only. Ladies in socially acceptable attire at all
times. See their ad for activities and times. At the Bingo
parties they have already given away a trip to Mexic:, and
Nassau. There are four floors of parking in the bui I ding
garage and 30 second express elevator service to the
penthouse.
Frank, wish to appologize to you for the poor picture of
The Exile Cowboy but promise wi 11 have someone take
a good one for the next issue, one you will be as happy
with as the one in your swinging bar.
Big George, the RR did not come out as we wanted it to
but just watch from here on, we are trying.
RED ROOM
to have
''DANCING''
I don't know what to expect next! The Red Room is the
first and only beer bar open to the pub I ic with dancing.
Dancing is not new to Houston in the gay clubs but in
beer bars where membership is required, unheard of.
There has been a sizeable investment as well as time
put into this feat ure for your enjoyment. If you haven't
been in lately go see the new add itions in this going
establishment.
Red Room has for years been a symbol in Houston's
gay night life. I wonder if the management will have
music that the older group might enjoy dancing to or
will it be for the sw ingers only? Much luck "B ig George".

Just to hove a decent meal in a gay establishment is

How Sweeter
When We
Meet Again
As the grim reaper of life takes its daily toll of our
friends ... old and new, one is caused to reflect
upon his personal association with each cherished
friendship. Such a revered friendship was that of
Verlon Muma, known to many fun-loving patrons, of
THE SURF in Houston . Always ready with a cheerful
greeting such as "Hi everybody," was a boost to
one's ego of secretly knowing Verlon as his very
own friend. She was a friend ... to you and to me
... and that she assured one of in daily contact
and exchanges of mutual respect.
Is it possible to enumerate the many and vast personalities
that she may have helped along the way?
She was eager to assist in matters of extreme
degree . . . many were personal. "Did the sun
shine on your day today? Or was it cloudy and nonprofitable?"
These were poised questions of
concern that she felt for you and for me. Yes, you
and I were as much a part of Verlon' s everyday
scale of living as she rightfully belonged to our own.
Parting .with a good friend is a saddening experience
but reality in life faces each of us as we must in
tum face reality. When departing from a friend, how
often you may ask yourself, "Shall we meet again?"
I warmly treasure that good friend but did I leave
a lasting impression with him?
Verlon had triumphed over that questionable fear
in our hearts when she went away on June 29. She
didn't say farewell or goodbye ... just "so long,"
which we have heard her utter on occasion as we
left her company. Perhaps, our compassionate
eulogy may well be responsively voiced in "Rest,
sweet friend ."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAVY
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DAVY is a realistic film treatment
of the doily lives of the young homosexuals of today.
Too many times the screen, theatre, or I iteroture hos
depicted the gay life in stereotyped concepts. Happy
Birthday, Davy is a frank and revealing slice of life of
the way today's youth face homosexuality, it's conflicts
and struggles caused by it. This film is on insight to
these lonely young men .... the men that ore often
unable to find that other human being to relate with . ...
to grow .... to love with. Unable sometimes to find
that missing half because they ore forced into the
shadows of secretive living.
This screenplay explores this man's plight and problems
.... this man's secret need .... this man's hidden and
often distorted life. This story explodes today's myth
about homosexuality: the myth and popular concept that
a homosexual con be categorized to fit only one type of
individual. It also reveals that homosexuals ore as
varied in their beliefs, characteristics, and desires as
much as their hetrosexuol counterparts.
The story about two such men portrayed by Chuck Roy
(Bob) and Lorry Nei I sen (Davy).
Bob a confirmed homosexual meets Davy on unsure
'straight' in a notorious hangout for the gay set. Davy
has stumbled into the bar by fate or mistake. Hoving
just turned twenty-one, Davy hos set out to buy his
first birthday drink. Unknowingly he hos stumbled into
on apparent den of leather sodi sts, drag queens, and
assorted so called social perverts.
Davy realizes his mistake when he is put upon by the
fri I ly bartender named Butch. Com i col ly portrayed by
Corl Williams. Immediately Davy typifies Butch as what
a homosexual is supposed to be.
Bob, observing the interchange between the two, introduces
himself. Davy is put at ease thinking because of
Bob's clean cut image that he too hos stumbled into
the bar by mistake.
Bob being adjusted in his homosexuality realizes Davy's
di lemno and confusion as to what kind of place and
personage that he hos stumbled upon . Bob tries to
explain the ' straight' side of being a homosexual ....
he te 11 s the young boy to open his eyes and see the

inhabitants of the bar as they are, not what they have
been colored to be.
During the course of the film, the boy's find their friendship
growing. Each comes to respect the others beliefs
and feelings. However, the story takes a turn when a
willing seduction on the part of Davy tokes place. The
younger boy finds that he too might be a member of that
secret circle.
Guilt ridden, the boy c,nfronts his sister (Judy Cuftis}
with al I the detai Is. Fearfu I ly, she accepts the fact
that her brother may be different from all the other men
she hos known. Compassionately, she tries to give
Davy advice ... but she is hindered by the fact that
she does not know how to ease the boy's conscience.
Davy leaves her ofter a very tender scene, each trying
to reassure the other that everything will be all right .
As Davy leaves Sis soys: "You're still my brother, Davy.
And I love you. I'm here. I'm here if you need me . . ..
I love you." The boy leaves to hopefully come to grips
with what and who he is.
Lorry Neilsen is Davy, he possesses enormous sex
appeal, when he tokes his clothes off in front of the
lens he hos something well worth looking at.
If you wont to hove good photography, consistent story
lines, and point of view, see this full length gay film
where you con watch them ---- and see a lot of ----.
Happy Birthday, Davy explores honestly the hidden gay
world. It is sometimes shocking in it's total frankness .
But it's honesty will hopefully throw some light on the
life of a homosexual as it actually is.

WHAT OUTSIDERS
SAY ~ THINKI
July 11, 1970. This Saturday AM myself and two friends
were in the Sizzler Steak House on Richmond just off
Kirby drive and overheard some of the conversation
between two very distinguished men. This was not
eavesdrooping as the loudness of their voices did not
make it necessary. They were seated two booths from
us and there was a couple in the booth between.
Their conversation was totally about the movie houses
opening up in and around Houston. The bars and the
activities of the bars in Houston. Their comments were
something like this: "You just can't believe it!, everything
is shown, they get the camera right down there
and the action and all can be seen in detail. I heard
of a couple of boys dressed as girls going to a club
where there were some whores, they had on wigs, dresses
and you couldn't tell them from girls. The police had
occasion to pick up the girls and take them to police
headquarters, it was not until they were told to strip
that the disc, very was made."
Their tone of voice was anything but shocked, I might
add the ages of the men appeared between 60 and 70

years of age. I thought to myself, what was this man
doing going to places of this nature if he was offended
by what went on. It brought to mind the recent programming
on channel 13 when they were airing the morals
of our city. This too was informative.
The mentioned above just gave dollars worth of publicity
to the theaters showing film of this type. I don't ever
recall passing by one of these theaters and being dragged
off. the streets to watch the films. If I want to view
these films or go to these bars, that's my business and
my choice. I feel the men talking should have been
of the same opinion.
I wanted to know if they were professional men or just
what their interest was so as they left I approached
them. I introduced myself as editor of the Nuntius, the
lkcal gay paper. The men introduced themselves, one
was a Dr. Williams, the other an executive for an oil
field equipment company.
I told them that we had overheard a port of their conversation
and would I ike to know what had stimulated
their interest in the subject. Dr. Williams said that he
was just repeating what he had heard at the Downtown
Rotary Club. I asked the other gentlemen and he had been
to one of the theaters. My next question was about
speakers etc., and was told that the Rotary had a weekly
newsletter and that the meeting would be written up in
this. I called and asked that one of the letters be mailed
and am sti II waiting.
