Tantnty Bakker Tells How
to Keep a Husband Happy
makeup, dress in bold colors and wear
wigs. She had to be talked outofa bright
red dress she wanted to wear to her own
wedding.
She said her clothes and jewelry do
not cost as much as critics have suggested
because she shops carefully. In
fact, she said, shopping is how she deals
with life's problems.
FORT MILL, S.C. (UPl)-Tammy Faye
Bakker, whose evangelist husband Jim
Bakker fell from grace in a sex scandal,
says the way to keep a husband happy
is to flirt with him, wear plenty of
makeup and be unpredictable.
That advice appears in a book called
"Christian Wives-Women Behind the
Evangelists Reveal Their Faith in Modem
Marriage." The book is due out next
month from Doubleday.
"You don't have to be dowdy to be a
Christian," she said. Her husband
never knows what to expect from her
and that is the reason their sometimes
rocky marriage has lasted for 26 years,
Tammy Bakker said in the book.
"I like to be different people for my
husband," she said. "I wear different
wigs all the time. Jim never knows if I'm
going to be a redhead, a blonde or a
brunette-I like to keep him guessing."
She tells critics of her heavy makeup
to mind their own business.
"I don't care as long as I'm not offending
God," she said. "I want to do as
much for myself as I can and it's not for
them, it's for my husband. I have a right
to do what I want."
The Bakkers and their marriage have
been scrutinized in recent weeks since
Jim" Bakker resigned as chairman of the
PTL, an television evangelism network,
and admitted to a one-time sexual
encounter seven 'years ago with a
church secretary.
Subsequently, the ex-wife of country
singer Gary Paxton told a newspaper
the evangelist strayed because he was
jealous over Tammy Bakker's infatuation
with Paxton.
Tammy Bakker traces her love for
makeup to age 12, when she had a part

Judge Denies
Danburg's
Request for a
Continuance
A Houston judge has approved the start
of trial for a Catholic priest accused of
sexually assaulting a 9-year-old boy.
District Judge Albert Pruett denied a
motion Wednesday to delay the start of
trial for Donald Stavinoha, 43. The
request was based on the fact that one of
Stavinoha's attorneys is state Rep.
Debra Dan burg, who is in Austin forthe
legislative session
Dan burg has been accused of hiring
herself out as a minor attorney and then
using her position as a state representative
to gain delays in trials for the
clients.
State law allows legislators who are
attorneys to delay trial of their cases
until 30 days after the Legislature
adjourns.
Pruett ordered Stavinoha's trial to
begin as scheduled Tuesday. The priest
was arrested last May when police say
they found him in a van engaging in a
sexual act with the boy.
Prosecutor Jon Munier testified at the
Wednesday hearing that he has had no
contact with Danburg concerning the
case, and that his dealings have been
with Stavinoha's lead attorney,
Edward Mallett.
Danburg's district includes much of
Montrose and a portion of the Heights.

was summoned to remove her from the

"When I'm shopping, I don't think

and the only way I can quit thinking
is by shopping."

Gay Play Broadcast Led to Decision
FCC Tightens Obscenity Rules Spaces Available
to rent for
the Westheimer Art
Festival
By Sydney Shaw
WASHINGTON (UPI)-The government
warned broadcasters Thursday of
a new crackdown on language that goes
beyond the famous "seven dirty words"
and promised stricter enforcement of
bans on the airing of offensive material.
The Federal Communications Commission
ruled that television and radio
stations will have to adhere to narrower
standards of what can be permissibly
aired, primarily on the content of the
material and the time of the broadcast.
In the last decade, the FCC said,
broadcasters have relaxed definitions
of what is offensive material, using
almost exclusively the "seven dirty
words" as a yardstick.
But the FCC said it now will return to
app1ying "the generic definition of indecency,"
defined as "language or material
that depicts or describes, in terms
patently offensive as measured by contemporary
community standards for
the broadcast medium, sexual or excretory
activities or organs."
That definition came from the FCC's
1975 Pacifica decision, upheld by the
Supreme Court in 1978, in which the
"seven dirty words" were ruled to be
obscene material not suitable for broadcast.
Thursday's FCC decision will apply
to American radio and television stations.
Officials said violaters would be
subject to fines and the ultimate penalty
in the broadcasting industry loss of
licenses.
"What we are doing here today is to
correct an altogether too narrow interpretation
of decency," said FCC Commissioner
Dennis Patrick, expected to
take over from Mark Fowler as cha irman
of the agency next week.
Fowler said, "Is this the way we want
to entertain and inform and inspire people
in the audience? Is this a legacy you,
the broadcasters, want to foster, perserve
and bequeath?"
Several commissioners emphasized
the policy will not chill free speach, noting
that obscene speech is not protected
by the First Amendment.
The FCC action arose specifically
from complaints against radio stations
WYSP-FM in Philadelphia, and the
non-commercial stations KCSB-FM in
Santa Barbara, Calif., and KPFK-FM
in Los Angeles.
WYSP carries a morning program by
"shock radio" personality Howard
Stern, based at WXRX-FM in New York.
KCSB, a student station at the University
of California-Santa Barbara, aired
what the FCC called an "indecent
broadcast" after 10 p.m., raising con-

cerns that children still awake at that
hour heard the broadcast.
KPFK, owned by the Pacifica
Foundation-the organization involved
in the Supreme Court case-aired
excerpts of a sexually explicit gay play,
"Jerker," in August 1986.
The FCC voted to send warning letters
to the stations in question and then
reaffirmed the stricter policing of broadcasts
for possibly offensive material.
The case involving the broadcast of
"Jerker" also will be referred to the Justice
Department for further investigation,
the commission said
Stern was not immediately available
for comment, but his management
representative, Don Buchwald, said of
the FCC decision: "Howard has always
functioned within the letter of the law
and will continue to do so. If the law is in
violation of the First Amendment, the
broadcasters will challenge it."
The Pacifica ruling arose from the
1973 airing by Pacifica-owned WBAIFM
of a recording by comedian George
Carlin that included the "seven dirty
words," which describe bodily functions,
parts of the anatomy, sexual acts
and incest.

200 Attend Opening of Straight
'AIDS-Free' Dating Service
By Peg Byron
NEW YORK (UPI)-About 200 people
packed an opening night party Wednesday
at a dating service for people who
have tested "AIDS-negative," although
legal and medical experts charged that
the club is dangerous and possibly illegal.
The dating service, the first in an area
where more people have AIDS than
anywhere in the nation, invited singles
to sign up for membership cards if they
take the blood test for the AIDS antibody
and are negative, meaning they
show no signs of AIDS virus infection.
An equal number of men and women
made up the crowd of 200 people who
jammed into the opening night party at
the Ampersand Singles Club's headquarters
on New York's fashionable
Upper East Side. Founder Gail Sheffler
hired security guards to keep the affair
orderly.
"I came because I think it's the beginning
of the future," said Elissa Sandler
of Brooklyn. "It's difficult to go into a
singles club to try to meet someone and
not know if they are AIDS free.
"It's a life and death issue," she said.
"It's not like herpes. I was thinking of
making all my dates take a blood test,
but it takes six weeks to get the results."
She was among several party-goers
who said the club is an idea whose time
had come. "Hey, I just want to play it
safe," said a well-dressed man in his
30s.
Some people were skeptical. One man
wanted to know what happened if a club
member had sex shortly after being
tested and contracted AIDS.
Gail Sheffler, 27, quit her job as an
advertising copywriter to start the
AIDS-free dating service which is
Bakker-Hahn
Room a Hot
Item
CLEARWATER BEACH, Fla. (UPI)There's
a new tourist attraction in
town-room No. 538 of the Sheraton
Sand Key Hotel where evengelist Jim
Bakker and Jessica Hahn had their
fateful tryst.
The room goes for $138 a night and
hotel manager Russ Kimball says he
has been swamped with requests from
people who want to stay in it or buy
furnishings from it.
Souvenir hunters are out ofluck, Kimball
said, because the bedspread, curtains,
beds and even the carpeting were
replaced during remodeling.
Kimball said the room, with two double
beds, is booked for the next three
weekends.
"It sells so good I'm thinking about
putting 538 on every room on the fifth
floor," he said.
Kimball said one radio station
wanted to do a broadcast from the room.
"I had to tell them I was sorry but the
room was booked," he said.
He said the hotel continues to receive
two or three telephone calls daily from
radio disc jockeys around the country.
He said some want hotel workers to talk
about the room, while others wants to
talk to guests currently in the room.
Kimball said the hotel hosted a convention
earlier this month and the conventioneer
who got the room happened
to be named Baker, "so the radio stations
called and they got Mr. Baker."
Bakker's sexual encounter with Hahn
in the room led to his recent downfall as
head of the PTL Club.
aimed at addressing awkwardness and
uncertainty she says have invaded the
New York singles scene.
"I'm single. I'm living in New York
and I'm concerned," said the energetic,
dark-haired entrepreneur as the telephones
in her new brownstone office
jangled incessently.
"I haven't sat down at a dinner party
in the last two months where the talk
hasn't been abut AIDS. And there is
nothing oriented to heterosexuals," she
said.
But while Sheffler juggled scores of
inquiries and prepared for her first
party for prospective members, some
legal and medical experts ridiculed her
approach as dangerous and possibly
illegal.
Members will pay up to $600 to meet
people of the opposite sex who also carry
"AIDS-negative" cards. Members also
have to pay for their own blood tests,
costing between $55 and $250 from private
physicians if not taken at one of the
city's free clinics, Sheffler said.
"It is not paranoia" for heterosexuals
to be concerned about AIDS, said nurse
clinician Ann Stuart of the New York
Blood Center where she counsels people
who t!.ke the AIDS antibody test.
The Blood Center estimates between 4
percent to IO percent of New York heterosexuals
carry the AIDS virus, she
said.
But Stuart warned it can take several
months for a virus infection to create
antibodies that show up on the test and
post-test sexual relations could also
cause infection.
But Sheffler said that her club does
not guarantee its member are AIDS
free.
"We work with the best the medical
community has to offer," she said.
"There are no guarantees. But members
are meeting other people who have been
tested AIDS negative and chances are
more than likely that these people are
AIDS negative. What are your other
choices?"
Sheffler said that besides the usual
dating questionnaires and photos, her
club will offer AIDS information and
even a "safe-sex video" that recommends
using condoms.
An opening night party of 300 was
expected to draw an even larger crowd
of prospective members and Sheffler
hired security guards to help keep
things orderly.
But the Human Rights Commission
said it would investigate the group for
possible violations of city antidiscrimination
law.
"It's OK to ask if you like blondes,"
said commission attorney Mitchell
Karp. "But it's not OK if (a negative
AIDS test) becomes a precondition for
participating" if the club is covered by
the city's public accommodation protections.
Karp added, "This sounds like just a
way for men to say, 'It's OK, baby. I
don't need a condom."'
Scientists believe the AIDS virus is
transmitted through infected semen,
vaginal fluids and blood and the U.S.
Surgeon General has recommended sexually
active people use condoms to prevent
exposure.

Kickbacks in
Swaggert's Closet?
BATON ROUGE, La (UPI)-A former
employee of the J immy Swaggart World
Ministries has admitted receiving what
he considered hush money from the television
evangelist to keep quiet about
what he believed to be printing contract
overcharges and kickbacks, a television
station has reported.
The allegations of a payoff were made
by Howard "Bud" Fisher, the former
director of direct mail for the Swaggart
ministry, in a 30-minute documentary
on the television preacher aired Monday
night by WBRZ-TV in Baton Rouge.
Fisher said in late 1982 and 1983 he
tried to alert Swaggart and his wife
Frances to what he believed to be printing
contract overcharges by printing
broker Rod Dockery of Dallas and gifts,
rewards and other favors made by
Dockery's company to Bob Anderson,
the brother of Frances Swaggart and
vice president of the ministries.
About 10 minutes into one meeting
with Swaggart, Fisher said he was
given a $5,000 handwritten check, described
by his boss as a bonus. Fisher
said he considered it a payment to keep
quiet about the printing contract.
Fisher said the check was fo llowed by
a series of pay raises that increased his
salary within months from $60,000 a
year to $100,000 a year.
However, he was at the same time
stripped of any authority and resigned
his position.
The television documentary also said
Anderson's name was included in information
being gathered by New York
attorney Bob Grutman, who represents
fallen PTL leader Jim Bakker and his
wife Tammy.
In defending Bakker in a scandal
involving a sexual encounter with a
former church secretary, Grutman
threatened two weeks ago to "show
there is a smellier laundry in his (Swaggart's)
hamper than the laundry that he
thought was in Rev. Bakker's."
WBRZ said Grutman also cmpiled
information about another incident in
which a former Swaggart employee was
fired following an alleged sexual affair
with a member of Swaggart's inner circle.
That incident, the television station
said, resulted in a lawsuit when Swaggart
tried to evict the fired employee
from a home he bought from the ministry.
A settlement was reached, the television
station said, and the employee
was allowed to sell the home and repay
the balance of the due mortgage.
The settlement, the television report
said, involved a confidentiality agreement
in which the parties agreed not to
disclose details of the incident that led
to the suit.
"I have not sued anyone," Swaggart
said. "I don't know what they're talking
about there."
Swaggart Official Denies
Newspaper's Claims
NEW ORLEANS (UPI)-A lawyer for
television evangelist Jimmy Swaggart
denied Thursday a newspaper's allegations
that the Baton Rouge preacher
twice threatened to kill a longtime
member of his ministry's band.
William Treeby, a lawyer for Swaggart
and assistant secretary for Jimmy
Swaggart Ministries, said a report
based on court records and published in
Wednesday's edition of The TimesPicayune
"relied on unproven allegations
in lawsuits."
Treeby said a telegram from a lawyer
represel)ting musician Dwayne Johnson
was delivered to the newspaper
Thursday. The telegram, Treeby said,
indicated J oh nson apologized to Swaggart
for filing a lawsuit in 1982.
"Dwayne is sorry that he filed that
suit and has apologized to Brother
Jimmy Swaggart," Tree by said the telegram
stated.
The article, based on records contained
in the lawsuit filed by Johnson
and his wife, reported Swaggart became
enraged at the man and threatened to
kill him on two ocassions.
Sources who alleged1y heard Swaggart
speak about the matter told the
paper the preacher had learned of a relationship
between the band member and
the wife of a member of Swaggart's
inner circle. '
The article also reported Swaggart
representatives pressured a Texas
woman to turn over her estate to Jimmy
Swaggart Ministries, according to lawsuits
filed by the woman's family and
executor.
Treeby's statement said those allegations
concerning the estate of Zoe Vance
"were not true" and matters involving
the woman's estate "are private mat
ters."
The Times-Picayune reported that a
1986 settlement of the case allocated 70
percent of the estate to Jimmy Swaggart
Ministries and 30 percent to a foundation
named for the woman's son.
Treeby's statement confirmed that
disposition of the case.

Quarantines
Should Be Few,
Says Health
Chairman
SAN ANTONIO (UPI)- Education is
the most important tool for stemming
AIDS, but quarantines should be used
in rare cases where known carriers of
the deadly disease continue to be sexually
promiscuous, the new chairman of
the state Health Board said.
Dr. Frank Bryant of San Antonio,
who was appointed chairman this past,
said Tuesday the board was considering
moving against only six people in Texas
when it considered adopting such a rule
18 months ago.
The board adopted the rule, but then
recanted its decision in January 1986
after receiving numerous protests.
"We would have said this about any
person with syphillis, turberculosis or
gonorrhea-any communicable disease.
What else would you do," said Bryant,
who added he was only voicing his
own opinions and not those of the
board.
Bryant said that unless a vaccine can
be found for acquired immune deficiency
syndrome, which can be sexually
transmitted, the focus must be on "education
of the public about how one contracts

Disagrees with
Reagan
'People' by William C. Trott
United Press International
President Reagan says abstinence is
the best way to beat AIDS but AIDS
fighter Elizabeth Taylor doesn't think
much of his cure.
"Can this be considered realistic
when you realize that every year millions
of teenagers become pregnant?"
she said in an interview with the West
German magazine Der Spiegel.
"His advice really is not very sensible.
It reglly is amazing how our president
confronts this national catastrophe."
Taylor urged young people to keep in
mind that AIDS has ended the era of
sexual freedom.
"This jumping from bed to bed, having
this or that partner that you picked
up in a bar, really has become playing
with fire," she said.
Taylor is chairwoman of the American
Foundation for AIDS research.

SPEAKING OF VANNA: For those
who can't get enough of Vanna White,
the game show queen's book, "Vanna
Speaks," will be out soon. In the meantime,
the May issue of Ladies Home
Journal has an excerpt in which she
says she got her "Wheel of Fortune" job
because "I turned the letters better than
anyone else and because Pat (Sajack,
the show's host) and I made a cute couple,
with sort of a brother-and-sister
look."
The "Wheel" job came in 1982 at a
point where her Hollywood career had
not been going well. At one point, she
considered posing nude for Playboy but
decided she couldn't go through with it.
In the book White also talks about
how she unsuccessfully tried to talk
Playboy's Hugh Hefner out of publishing
pictures of her lingerie.

~ Thanking Jim & Moody
Names withheld by request
Last year we called J&M Lawn Care, 1609 Welch, Houston, TX 77006 to do our lawn on a
regular basis.
Needless to say they were always on time and d id a wonderful job.
However, my lover had been down with AIDS and financially we could not pay the bill and
were two months behind.
After I talked with them, they told me to tear up the bi ll and they would continue to do our
yard for free as long as was necessary.
Since that time they have not only done the yard but brought us plants and bushes, which
in my lovers last days are wonderful. He no longer is able to walk, but can see out of the
windows. I must admit that the flowers and roses are beautiful.
Monetarily we can do nothing for the wonderful people at J&M. But I and my lover feel
that some measure of recognition is due Jim and Moody for their contributions in one form
or another.
If there is anything you can do to bring these people and their charity to the public, I and
my lover would greatly appreciate it.
~ Thanks, Houston!
From Brent Nicholson Earle, Marion Nicholson and Bl/I Konkoy
I write to express our gratitude to the Houston gay and lesbian community for their
reception of The American Run for the End of AIDS during our visit here this past week.
We are especially grateful to the board, staff and volunteers of the Houston AIDS
Foundation for their sponsorship of the Run and for enabling us to meet so many members
of the community in the bars, at chu rch services, at local bsinesses, at our beautiful
reception at the Magnolia Room and, especially, at Omega House, McAdory House and
Jefferson Davis Memorial Hospital.
Your community is blessed with saints without whose work and dedication we would all
be diminished. It has been our privi lege to meet many of them and to lend support to their
efforts. We urge the readership of the Montrose Voice to conti nue supporting them and
their vitally important labors. We all have a job to do in this crisis.
We have six-and-a-half months longer to t ravel and many more cities to visit and people
to meet. We'll take with us memories of your hospitality, generosity and encouragement to
ease our journey Please accept our gratitude and respect in return.

Poll:
Americans
Support
Premarital
AIDS Testing
WASHINGTON (UPI)-Nearlyfourout
of five Americans believe couples planning
to marry should be tested for
AIDS, a poll said Saturday, but more
than half of respondents said they had
not changed their behavior to guard
against AIDS.
The CNN-U.S. News & World Report
poll, conducted by The Roper Organization,
also found that a majority of Americans
believe the government should
pay for treatment of AIDS patients with
a new drug found to help sufferers cope
with the deadly illness.
The survey of 1,017 people, conducted
at the end of March, asked whether testing
for the AIDS virus should be
required for various groups.
Seventy-seven percent said couples
planning marriage should take the
blood test, and 74 percent of respondents
favored testing of people entering
hospitals. Seventy-four percent favored
testing immigrants, and 71 percent
favored testing persons entering the
armed services.
Only those entering the armed servi·
ces currently are required to have an
AIDS blood test taken.
Only 7 percent of the respondents said
they themselves had had a test to deter·
mine whether they carry the AIDS
virus, but 43 percent said they had
changed their behavior in some way to
reduce their exposure to AIDS.
Acquired immune deficiency syn·
drome is a viral disease that breaks
down the body's immune systell), leaving
a person susceptible to a variety of
illnesses, including pneumonia and
cancer. As of March 30, the Centers for
Disease Control in Atlanta reported
33,482 cases of AIDS in the United
States, of which 19,394 victims have
died.
Researchers say AIDS is transmitted
primarily by sexual contact and the
sharing of intravenous needles.
Surgeon General C. Everett Koop has
recommended that people who are sexually
active but not involved in a faithful
monogamous relationship should use
condoms to prevent possible transmis·
sion of the virus that causes AIDS.
But the CNN-U.S. News poll said 53
percent of respondents said they had
not changed their sexual behavior at alli
as a result of the epidemic the same
number that said they were "not at all
worried" about getting AIDS.
Only 10 percent said they were very
worried about contracting the disease.
More than half of the respondents-
59 percent-also said they thought the
government should pay for the expensive
new drug, AZT, shown to prolong
the life of AIDS patients if the victim
could not afford it.
Almost all respondents said people
who have the AIDS virus should inform
their sexual partners. Ninety-five per·
cent said spouses should be informed
and 94 percent said anyone with whom
the person has sex should be informed.
Only 43 percent thought people who
carry the virus, but who do not actually
have the disease, should inform their
health insurance company. Fifty-seven
percent said such people should stop
having sex entirely.
Eighty-two percent of the respondents
said newspaper obituaries should
not mention that a person died of AIDS
if the victim's family objects.
The poll's margin of error was 4 per·
cent.

Inmate Claims to Have
Arranged 'Personals' Killing
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (UPI)-An Oklahoma
prison inmate claims he arranged
from his prison cell to have a Blount
County man killed last year in what
authorities said April 10 is a "bizarre"
scenario.
The claims of David Paul Hammer,
28, an inmate at the state prison in McAlester,
Okla., are being taken seriously,
Blount County District Attorney David
Ballard said.
Hammer said he never met the victim
in person, but made contact with him
through the Los Angeles-based magazine
The Advocate.
"He (Hammer) says he set the thing
up. It appears that he may have done
that," Ballard said April 10, "This guy
gets very vague sometimes. He's very
difflicult to deal with at times."
"It's really all bizarre," Ballard said.
Detectives traveled to Oklahoma in
December to intervew Hammer, who
claims he set up the Nov. 23, 1986, killing
of Kenneth Kenner, 39, of Louis-ville,
Tenn.
Kenner was found beaten to death
Nov. 24 at his apartment in the Blount
County community near Alcoa, Tenn.
No arrests have been made.
Hammer is serving a total of 1,200
years on 13 felony convictions in Oklahoma.
He told The Knoxville NewsSentinel
in a telephone interview from
his cell he arranged to have a former
cellmate rob and kill Kenner.
Hammer said he corresponds with
people through The Advocate, getting
them to send him money. He claims to
have netted over $50,000 through the
setup last year.
Hammer said Kenner did not realize
he was in prison. He said he uses part of
the money he gets for a telephone answering
service, so people with whom he
corresponds will not know he is behind
bars.
Hammer said his correspondence
with Kenner led him to believe the Tennessee
man had money, so he decided to
hire someone to rob him. He said he contacted
a former cellmate and told the
man to rob Kenner and "to leave no witnesses."
Hammer claims the former cellmate
killed Kenner by beating him over the
head with a roofing axe.
"I told him to kill the guy," Hammer
told The News-Sentinel.
The inmate said he telephoned the
Kenner residence the day of and day
after the killing. He said he talked with
his ex-cellmate the first time, who told
him Kenner was dead.
Ballard said the second call tipped off
authorities because County Detective
Kenneth Myers answered the phone.
Authorities then found letters from
Hammer when they searched Kenner's
home.
Ballard said authorities are searching
for Hammer's former cellmate.
"We also are looking into the possibility
of charging Hammer, seeing if we
can charge him and bring him back to
Tennessee," Ballard said.

By Gayle Young
NEW YORK (UPI)-As daylight fades
in the very worst neighborhoods of the
city, small bands of former drug addicts'
descend for a nightly street fight
against the spread of AIDS.
Addicts, Needles and
Readily admitted into the same notorious
shooting galleries they once frequented,
the ex-addicts teach attentive
users how to sterilize needles with boiling
water and bleach.
In San Francisco, a health department
worker dispenses condoms and
gallon jugs of Clorox to addicts from a
sack he carries across his back like
Santa Claus. And, in New Jersey,
health department agents have been
passing out informational AIDS pamphlets
with coupons that allow drug
users free treatment in the state's drug
treatment clinics.
But unlike their European counterparts,
cities in the United States have
stopped short of passing out the one
thing some believe may halt the spread
of the deadly disease among drug
addicts disposable intravenous needles.
"Basically, the only thing we have to
give them is information," said Conrad
Mouge, who directs New York City's 40
former addicts involved in its AIDS education
program.
Proposals to distribute free sterile needles
in San Francisco, New York, New
Jersey and Washington, D.C.-which
have the highest numbers of addicts
with AIDS in the nation-have met
with a storm of opposition from indignant
legislators, concerned police and
wary drug counselors.
Coll 529-8490 a nd
}Tou will be in Next
Week's Newspaper of
Montrose
"The proposal has been brought up
and was shot down pretty quickly,"
Paul Barnes, spokesperson for the San
~ancisco city health department, said
m a recent telephone interview. "We're
still following the cities in Europe to see
how they are doing. But for us, it's 'no
go'."
Next to homosexual males, intraven-ilized
needles available argue it may
save lives because sketchy studies in
New York have indicated that while
most addicts say they sterilize their needles,
only between 3 percent and 20 percent
actually do so.
"Our ability to predict what drug
users will do is never very good, but
there is a feeling that if clean needles
In cities where needles are illegal, addicts buy
them from corrupt pharmacies and hospital
storerooms, Des Jarlais said. "They are passed
around simply because there aren't enough
available for everyone."
ous drug users are the most likely group
in America to become infected with, and
die from, acquired immune deficiency
syndrome, health officials say.
The Centers for Disease Control in
Atlanta report intravenous drug users
account for 17 percent of the 33,158
recorded AIDS cases in the United
States to date and another 8 percent of
people with the disease are both IV drug
users and homosexual. The percentages
have remained steady since IV users
were first recognized as a risk group in
the early 1980's.
Health officials say the HIV virus
that causes the di5ease can be found on
traces of blood in unsterilized needles
passed from user to user, often in
"shooting galleries" where addicts
gather to buy cocaine and heroin and
shoot up from needles rented for 50
cents per use.
Proponents of proposals to make ster-were
available they would use them,"
Don Des Jarlais, coordinator for AIDS
programs in the New York State Division
of Substance Abuse Services, said
in an interview.
Des Jarlais helped draft a controversial
proposal now under consideration
that would establish a needle exchange
program in New York City on a trial
basis. The pilot program, criticized by
the city's police department, would
allow drug addicts to exchange dirty
needles for sterilized needles and is
loosely based on European models.
In Amsterdam, the first city to start a
needle distribution program, drug users
can obtain free sterilized needles from
any one of 16 locations, including two
roving buses, simply by turning in their
old, used needles. Last year the city
_exchanged 400,000 new syringes for its
estimated 8,000 junkies, health officials
there say, and the program has spread
to most Dutch cities.
Some 34,000 free needles have been
distributed to an estimated 4,000 drug
addicts in Copenhagen by Danish
health authorities in a stillexperimental
program. But Danish
drug users can buy sterile needles as
well. A vending machine in the heart of
the city dispenses an estimated 60 needles
a day for the equivalent of $1.40.
Sweden does not officially sanction
the distribution of needles, but health
officials there say they are allowing doctors
at the Lund hospital to give addicts
needles on a trial basis.
While the programs are accepted in
Europe, they have their critics there as
well. Helle Olsen, of the Swedish Social
Welfare Board, said the Lund program
has been criticized by people who say
addicts will share needles anyway and
that making them available might
tempt younger people to give intravenous
use a try.
Health officials in the United States,
and in the European cities themselves,
say it is too early to tell if the programs
are reducing the number of AIDS cases.
And, since it is difficult to pinpoint
exactly when a person with AIDS
picked up the virus, they may never
know for sure.
"I can't say it will stop the spread of
AIDS; you can't stop the use of dirty
needles 100 percent," said Ernst Buning,
a psychologist for Amsterdam's
municipal health services department
who helped develop the city's groundbreaking
program.
But, he said he believed it was better

AIDS: A Seething Dispute those in Holland."
Des Jarlais also said European health
officials have told him needle distribution
programs allow them to keep tabs
on addicts and give them an opportunity
to try to rehabilitate them.
for health officials to make any effort
than to look back years later and say,
"We wish we had done something."
Des Jarlais, who studied the Amsterdam
program before making a proposal
for New York, said he too believes cities
should distribute needles, even if there
is no proof it will halt the spread of
AIDS.
"There would be some problems, some
difficulties," he said "But we have reason
to believe it's worthwhile to try."
But others argue that distributing
needles would do more harm than good.
They say it would appear to both
addicts and the public as a government
sanction of illegal drug use and many
legislators have said it is unfair to use
tax money for such a program.
Perhaps the most compelling argument
against the distribution of free
needles comes from the police departments
of the rities where illegal drug use
has led to significant crime and widespread
social problems.
In New York City, the police department
has come come out strongly
against the proposed pilot program,
believing it would undercut the arrests
of suspected drug addicts and pushers
on paraphernalia charges.
Drugs are bought and used, but needles
remain as evidence.
"It would create additional problems
for drug enforcement, possibly promote
drug use," spokesman Capt. Michael
Julian said. "We do make more drug
arrests for paraphernalia than for
actual substance.
"They have their reasons for suppo~t-
"Our ability to predict
what drug users will
do is never very good,
but there is a feeling
that if clean needles
were available they
would use them"
ing it," he said of the health officials
who are pushing the state health commissioner
to approve the pilot program.
"We have our reasons for being against
it."
Still others question whether addicts
would use sterile needles even if they
were available.
Surveys of several hundred drug
users conducted by Des Jarlais's office
in 1984 showed that an estimated 99
percent of the city's estimated 200,000
IV drug addicts are aware of the risk of
AIDS transmission but only half said
they tried to sterilize their needles.
Mauge, who heads New York's exaddict
outreach program, said addicts
repeatedly tell him they are sterilizing
their needles, but said these same
addicts are often seen later sharing needles
rented in shooting galleries.
"I don't know, if needles were available,
if they would change their habits
because it is habit," Mouge said. "Even
if they had a fresh needle they might
still shoot up with three or four people
because that's how it's done."
However, in the 36 states that allow
needles to be purchased openly, addicts

usually don't share their equipment, he
said.
"You look at New Orleans, where the
addicts have the same profile, the same
types, and HIV infection is 1 percent
compared to here where in some areas
it's probably 50 percent," he said. "In
New Orleans they go to Woolworths,
buy a needle and shoot at home."
In New Jersey, where needle purchases
are illegal, 62 percent of the
state's 1,901 AIDS cases are related to
IV drug use.
Mouge said states with high numbers
of intravenous drug users usually have
passed laws making possession of needles
illegal in an attempt to make drug
use less accessible and to to give police a
reason to arrest suspected drug users.
"So here they go to galleries," said
Mouge, who generally supports a needle
exchange program.
"I do believe we might reduce a portion
of AIDS," he said.

addicts buy them from corrupt pharmacies

said. "They are passed around
simply because there aren't enough
available for everyone."
Des Jarlais said needles can be sterilized
by boiling them in water for more
than 15 minutes or soaking them in
bleach for a similar time period. He said
he believes users want to sterilize their
needles, but often times don't have the
facilities or presence of mind to do so.
"If given a choice, they'll choose a
clean needle," he said. "I can't believe
our drug users are not as shrewd as
"It's an excellent way to get access
and build up trust," he said.
While the debate is continuing, it
appears most American health and
legislative officials have decided
against needle distribution programs
and are not likely to change their minds
unless new evidence emerges.

'Campus Man' Goes Beneath the Flesh
Todd (John Dye) enlists the aid of some photogenic college athletes for his
student calendar in "Campus Man"
Houston Screens
by Bill O'Rourke
Montro~e Voice
"Preaching to be saved." How often
have we heard that phrase? People with
a message try to get it heard by winding
up feeling that the only people listening
to them agree already.
The producers of Campus Man seem
to have gone a long way to avoid that
situation.
From their advertising, I was Jed to
expect a cute, brainless little exploitation
comedy featuring not a Jot of plot
but lots of hot male bodies.
And for the first 20 minutes or so, we
get just that. Our heroines, Kim Delaney
and Kathleen Wilhoite, are sitting
around the pool watching breathtaking
men, especially Steve Lyon, do very aesthetically
pleasing high dives (Though
Lyon has a double do his actual dives,
there is no way to tell it from the film.).
Stretched out around them, for variety,
are willowly blond boys.
This gives Lyon's roommate, John
Dye, ideas. He will produce an all-male
pin-up calendar for the ladies-a salute
to sports. With that, we get some very
tasty shots of photo sessions with lots of
flexing muscles.
Then, after they've got us caught, the
filmmakers pull the old switcheroo. We
get to the meat of the movie, the real
thought-provoking comedy that was
hiding under that sheep's clothing. This
is actually a show about the consequences
of exploitation.
So, you see, director Ron Casden and
friends have enticed into the theater the
very people they want to talk to. Not
only that, they've given them an opening
that will get them to forgive nearly
anything. And if they ever feel they're
starting to lose us, they can always
have Lyon, who has been an AllAmerican
linebacker and a GQ cover
model, take his shirt off.
Or tease us with Miles O'Keefe.
Remember Bo Derek's Tarzan? He's
here as the older, slightly sinister bad
man to spice up this steady diet of young
innocents. But he never does take his
shirt off. I guess that's to prove that
Casden isn't giving us exactly the kind
of entertainment he looks upon critically.
Now, for those of you who don't like
beefcake, this movie is good comedydrama.
Although this is an entirely fictitious
story, it was inspired by Todd Headlee,
an Arizona State University student
who created the first male pin-up
calendar. In honor of him, and because
it's an interesting location, the movie
was made at A.S.U.
Headlee produced the calendar five
years ago. It takes a willing suspension
of disbelief to accept that, in the movie,
this savvy marketing student has his
independent brainstorm just last year.
Then, to further stretch our credulity,
although Dye is having a lot of trouble
selling the calendars in Tempe, one of
them just happens to show up on the
desk at a magazine in New York.
Morgan Fairchild, the editor, decides
that she must have Lyon as her "Man of
the '80s." It means a very lucrative yearlong
contract.
Mark Hammon, in his first motion
picture starring role, plays a gym
coach pressured into taking charge of
a remedial English class during
summer session in "Summer School"
Dye is very proud of what he's done
for his friend, but Lyon doesn't want it.
Years ago as kids Dye introduced him to
diving. Now he's a top-notch college
diver with a chance at the Olympics.
How can Dye take back the dream he
gave him? For this will jeopardize his
amateur tanding. And their friendship,
too.
The women are there for the romance
and to help instruct the men's consciences.
By the way, keep an eye on Delaney.
I got confused and wasn't always sure
she was the same woman.
This movie is really about friendship.
It's also the closest we're likely to get
to a sports movie about diving. There
are some beautiful dives, lovingly photographed.

Secrets for Leo
By Mark Orion
Your Horoscope from the Voice
For Fflday evenmg. April 17, through Fnday
mornmg. Apnl 23. 1987
ARIES-Feeling lethargic? Got the
blahs? Motor won't turn over? Do something
you've never done before. You need
to get out of your humdrum rout ine. A
midnight swim, or something even more
bizarre connected with water might be
the answer. Take along a Pisces or
Scorpio.
TAURUS-That little thing on the side
keeps growing larger all the time. You
just can't keep your mind off the current
attraction, as it becomes a real distraction
from what should be important to
you. Like a silly song you can't help singing,
it's forgettable but cute.
GEMINI-What an idea! Why did'! I
think of that? Lightning stikes again: a
man and a women that you're close to will
both benefit from your mind-bending
innovations, though not in the same way.
It will be very interesting to watch their
reactions as you plot it all out.
CANCER-The gods made this time
just for Cancers. So you'd better not blow
it. Here's a respite from troubles and an
opening for something special. Slide into
it. Don't let it slide by!
LEO-You've put away your nasty
growl and you have no more secrets to
conceal. The light and fun that carried
you through last time can now be brought
into your work and business life. You've
got a lot to give, and those around you
will do more than appreciate it.
VIRGO-Romance gets put on the
back burner while you turn the old sex
drive on high. That could take you to
some pretty strange places that make you
unreachable to those you're close to.
Maybe you should pursue your activities
with some discretion, no?
LIBRA-What is it with your lover or
close one these days? The more positive
and loving you are, the more negative and
distant the relationship. You're doing
what comes naturally to you, so there's
no point in trying to make drastic
changes. Be yourself and listen for clues.
SCORPIO-Put on your travelling
shoes and shuffle off to-well, maybe not
Buffalo, but you won't have to go far to
get a thrill of adventure. You've been
longing for it, so if you can't get out of
town, let your mind do the travelling. A
good fantasy, couldn't hurt.
SAGITTARIUS- The power of love
that struck you last time has a healing
effect and enables you to move ahead in
other areas of your life. With your nighttimes
shining, your day-to-day responsibilities
take on a better, brighter light.
CAPRICORN-The heat is on; body
heat and mental heat are high, and so are
you. High, hot and somewhat more outrageous
than your usual self, you can
learn a lot and teach some things too.
Don't let the heat get you down; it should
be getting you up, up, up'
AQUARIUS-Let your intuitive, yielding
side guide you through this time of
decisions. You can continue to stand at
the crossroads, and you've got to be able
to trust yourself before you choose your
turn. Meditate on what's central to you,
and most important.
PISCES- Now comes the turning
point. Balanced between yesterday's
requirements and tomorrow's hopes is
the part of your life that involves decision
and committment. You'd love to get lost
in dreams, but reality beckons.

APRIL 17, 1987 I MONTROSE VOICE 21
baseball game in Houston, the Houston
Stonewalls defeated the Galveston
Robert Lees 35-2.
Houston Live by Bill O'Rourke
Montrose Voice
As a whole, Stages production of Hairis
a very, very good show. It's a bit of a
mixed bag, really, but any show that
can give me the electric cold goosebumps
that this one did several times
and winds up with me on a crying jag is
a contender.
It's its own animal. Director Ted
Swindley has paid more attention to the
Ardencie Hall sings "Let the sunshine
in" in the tribal love rock musical
"Hair," playing through May at
Stages Repertory Theatre
plot than did '67s Broadway director
Tom O'Horgan and his assistant Harvey
Milk. This may be more like the original
off-Broadway production. There
was a rumor at the time that it had
stayed closer to the script.
They beefed up the plot considerably
for the movie. So don't expect this to be
quite like that, either.
Although all three are/ were celebrations,
the Swindley version comes off
the most critical of the tribe. Through
subtle emphasis, he never quite lets us
forget that women had not yet found
equality-even to the extent they have
today. Though relationships with
blacks were fairly good, they were a distinct
tribe within the tribe with a separate,
important agenda which their
white brothers do not seem to fully
embrace. There is one gay brother, but
he claims loudly that he isn't. You have
to remember that this was two years
before Stonewall.
The central character and the real
star of this huge cast is Claude, played
by Curtis C. Alfrey. In the O'Horgan
staging he as pretty much an innocent
who became a sacrificial lamb when he
was drafted and then died in Viet Nam.
In the movie, the plot's changed so
much that he's an innocent bystander,
not a member of the tribe at all, really.
Then he's heroically saved. In this
Swindley retelling, he's a sweet but corrupt
little boy who finds his real roots,
gets the guts to face the truth and dies
bravely. In the O'Horgan, Claude's
going to war was seen as something of a
sell-out, cop-out, almost cowardly
maneuver.
Hair originally came out in '67. It can
be seen partially as that generation trying
to explain itself to the '4 7 generation.
That's stated specifically in one of
the songs. So it is perfect that we now
have the '87 generation examining the
work to see whatitoffers them. The vast
majority of this cast is too young to personally
i;_emember the period. So we are
guaranteed a fresh-eyed reappraisal.
But that is not exactly what Swindley
envisioned. "As a retrospective, it ...
allow(s) us to ask . . . how we've
changed and how we've stayed the
same," to quote his notes from the program.
When we enter the theater, we do not
realize that those playing the leading
roles are sitting amongst us. Then the
rest of the tribe pulls them up onto the
stage and helps them to change into hippie
garb.
Chris Kinkaid is a handsome, athletic
guy. (You may have seen him on Channel
5.) So is Berger, the character he
plays. But instead of letting them meet,
Swindley has erected an extraneous
wall between them. Now Kinkaid is a
stud playing an older man remembering
what it as like to be a stud. Why?
Because of this interpretation, the
show takes longer to get going strong
than it should. Possibly also because of
it, some of the songs are approached
almost like songs instead of rock. They
are examined with the head rather than
felt with the pelvis. The singers are in
control of the songs rather than vice
versa. The rhythms are there but the
wildness isn't.
Judy Tenuta brings her unique
comedy show to the Comedy
Workshop April 21 in a benefit for the
AIDS Foundation
There are 26 people in this show.
Obviously, I am unable to mention all of
them. But Michael Ballard has really
grabbed my attention this season, in
this and in Do, Lord. He is catching fire
and somebody had better build a show
around him, fast!
It seems like every 20 years or so,
something happens that kills scores of
Lillian Evans as Myra and Robert Graham as Charles in "The Middle
Ages" playing through April 26 on the Alley Theatre's Arena Stage
But when these people do get down to
rockin', they can tear the joint apart.
There's one solo by Mary Hooper that
will tear your heart apart. There are chorus
numbers that will tear words out of
your throat to sing along. (They encourage
the a udience to come in their old '60s
garb.) I couldn't help but sing along on
"Three-Five-Zero-Zero" which is about
bringing the war back home. Like I said,
these people often give men those cold,
shivery electric tingles that start in your
spine and don't let up 'ti) the whole
body's vibrating and you've got to move
something, tap your toe, whatev~r.
And my body shook again, with convulsive
tears, when Claude diedespecially
when they brought on the
Viet Nam War Memorial to remind us
he was only one of many. But they
should have taken it off again. "Let the
Sunshine In" was seen not so much as a
plea for peace and freedom as it was a
curtain call celebratory song. It was
quite jarring in an unhelpful way in
front of that set piece.
Americans. The government either is in
the forefront when it is a question of war
or is lagging behind when it is a question
of disease. It never seems to
respond in a manner tht keeps its citizens
happy. Perhaps, given time, The
Normal Heart will be seen as this generation's
Hair.

N e\V Clue to Why AIDS
Develops in Some People
research has indicated the HIV virus
reproduces at the same rate.
"There was evidence that HIV replication
was linked to T-cell activation,
we wanted to find the mechanism," he
said.
By Gayle Young
UPI Science Writer
NEW YORK-Repeated bouts with
colds, flu and other common infections
may trigger the development of AIDS in
people who have already been infected
with the HIV virus, researchers
reported Wednesday.
Scientists at the Whitehead Institute
in Cambridge, Mass., said their studies
may prove a widely held theory that the
HIV virus that causes AIDS spreads
whenever the body's immune system is
activated by common, usually trivial,
viral and bacterial infections.
Eventually, the spread of the virus
leads to full-blown AIDS and the destruction
of the immune system, the
researchers said.
"We don't want to leave the impression
you get a cold and then get a rampant
disease," Dr. Gary Nabel, a
researcher at the institute said. "This is
a case of chipping away at something
over time."
The AIDS virus, or HIV for human
immunodeficiency virus, can cause no
symptoms for five to seven years after
infection, although the incubation
period is shorter in many cases.
During this lag time, the HIV virus
probably reproduces each time the
body's immune system is activated,
Nabel and researcher David Baltimore
reported in the British science Journal
Nature.
They said their laboratory studies
indicate the HIV virus lodges in the
immune system's T-cells, where they
reproduce whenever the cells respond to
other viruses and bacteria that enter the
body.
The researchers were even able to pinpoint
the specific protein, identified as
NF-KappaB, that is released by the Tcells
and which binds to the HIV virus
and causes it to reproduce, probably kil-
'My Salary Was
So High ... I
Quit'
NEW YORK (UPI)-Workers give all
kinds of excuses for quitting their jobs,
ranging from a desire to "write poetry
on the beach" to embarrassment at
being paid too much.
A survey released Monday said that
100 of the nation's 1,000 largest corporations
responded to the poll conducted by
Accountemps, a temporary personnel
service. It quoted some reasons given by
employees who quit their jobs, including:
-"I'm going to be much happier as a
dog trainer than I am as a management
consultant."
-"They said I couldn't take short nap
breaks twice a day."
-"I want to write poetry on the
beach."
-"My salary was so high, itmademe
uncomfortable. So I quit."
-"They wouldn't let me keep my talking

place to meet men. Too many of them
were bald. with bow ties, suspenders

ling the T-cell in the process.
Over time, the amount of HIV virus
increases while the number of T-cells
decrease, Nabel said.
"Generally you can tolerate the loss of
some cells," he said. "We don't know
when someone reaches that critical
point where you can say they definitely
have AIDS, when they have too few Tcells
to ward off major infections."
People with AIDS have crippled
immune systems that allow opportunistic
infections such as pneumonia and
tuberculosis to invade their bodies.
Doctors estimate 30 percent of people
who are exposed to the AIDS virus actu-ally
develop the disease, although they
say the percentage may prove much
higher.
The researchers said they did not
know why some people who have been
exposed to the AIDS virus eventually
get the disease and others do not. But
they said the viruses and bacteria that
may trigger the HIV virus to reproduce
are extremely common.
"Our bodies' immune systems are
always battling something," Nabel
said.
Nabel said about one in every 1,000 to
10,000 T-cells is activated when bacteria
or viruses enter the body. He said other

The protein that causes HIV to reproduce
is found in all T-cells, he said.
"It suggests a steady progression
toward AIDS," Baltimore said. "It
doesn't suggest any (cure) right away ...
it helps us understand better what is
going on."
Nabel said the researchers isolated Tcells
in the laboratory and infected
them with HIV virus. He said the cells
were then prodded into action with a
laboratory-made stimulant, but said
natural bacteria and viruses would
cause an identical reaction.
By studying the reaction, researchers
were able to identify the T-cell protein
that caused the virus to reproduce.
