Quick now, what is the largest men's
bowling league in Texas?
If you guessed the Montrose Sports
Association Bowling League, you got it.
Every Monday night at 9:00PM, members
of the MSA Bowling League gather for sports
and fun. Richard Dauchy, president of the
league, was very vocal in stressing that
anyone who is interested is invited to come
out to Stadium Bowl, one block south of
Kirby on Main, for an evening of fun and
bowling.
"We're interested in participation, not
competition," Dauchy stated. "We're also
very .Proud of the fact th~t there is a gay
bowhng league in Dallas w1th 134 members,
and leagues in San Antonio and Austin are
scheduled to begin soon."
Dauchy also said that the league here in
Houston, which has been around since May
of 1979, has 270 members, making it a very
large league indeed.
Over the Memorial Day weekend, May 22-
24, Houston will host the First Annual
International Gay Bowling Organization
Tournament. And the Montrose Sports
Association, and its bowling league, will be
host to the event. This will be a match play
on point system tournament with
competition in single, doubles, and team
events.
The large turnout at Stadium Bowl and the
friendly attitude of the members of the
league indicate a bright future for this, the
largest, men's bowling league in our state.

Tinsley proposes
tax break for
historical buildings
A city property tax break
program that would encourage
owners of historical
buildings in Montrose and
elsewhere in Houston to
restore or perserve them was
proposed to the Houston City
Council January 14 by Councilwoman
Eleanor Tinsley.
"If we're going to preserve
these buildings, we've got to
move very fast. They're disappearing
from the landscape,"
Tinsley told City
Council, the Houston Post
reported.
To qualify for the tax
breaks, the owners of the
structures, which includes
both office buildings and residences,
must seek historical
landmark designations from
the Texas Historical Commission
and the National
Registry of Historic Places.
Southwest Center for
Urban Research conducted a
survey of 27 structures in
Montrose and 224 structures
elsewhere in Houston. These
were structures which they
thought might qualify now
Demonstration
staged outside
Chinese
consulate
The Chinese consulate in
Houston, located in Montrose
at 3400 Montrose Blvd.,
was the scene Monday, Jan.
26, of a demonstration by
members of the Revolutionary
Communist Party showing
their support for Jiang
Qing, widow of Mao TseTung.
The communists were confronted
by noisy beckers.
Jiang Qing had a day earlier
received a suspended
death sentence by a Chinese
court for plotting to overthrow
the government during
China's Cultural
Revolution.
or in the near future, said
Steven Fox of the research
group.
Among the commercial
buildings here, he said, were
the Tower Theater at 1201
Westheimer, the Alabama
Theater at 2922 South Shepherd
and the Plaza Hotel at
5020 Montrose Blvd.
Weingarten Realty, which
owns the shopping center
containing the Alabama
Theater, has been reported to
be considering tearing down
the old 50's-style complex to
make room for building a
more-profitable modern
high-rise. Such a move,
though, was said to be only
in an exploratory stage.
Tinsley's program, authorized
by the Texas Legislature
in 1977, would grant a 50
percent exemption for five
years for buildings that are
preserved and a 100 percent
exemption for five years for
other structures that are
restored.
In the sixth through tenth
years, buldings that are preserved
would receive a fifty
percent exemption and after
ten years those structures
would receive a 25 percent
exemption.
The exemption would not
apply to Houston Independent
School District taxes.
If a project were demolished
after receiving the
exemption, the city could
"recapture" up to five years
of taxes the owners had not
been required to pay.
The total of 251 structures
include 77 public buildings
already exempt from property
taxes as well as 60
commerical structures and
114 residences. the research
firm stated.
If all of the structures were
restored, about $750,000 in
current tax collection would
be lost, Tinsley said. A more
reasonable maximum is
probably about $200,000, she
said.

"Upfront" folds
Upfront America, a biweekly
tabloid newspaper
published in Montrose and
distributed throughout the
neighborhood, has published
its last issue, owner Gary
von Ooteghem said Thursday,
Jan. 29.
"It's cost me $50,000 over
the past three years. I've used
up my whole settlement," he
said, referring to a federal
appeals court _ruling last
October that ordered Harris
County to pay him $56,000 in
back wages because he was
fired from his county
accounting position in 1975
for reportedly politicing for
gay rights on county time.
The money has yet to be
paid to Van Ooteghem, but he
has borrowed using the court
ruling as collateral.
"I am busted, I am broke,"
Van Ooteghem said, talking
about the closing of Upfront.
The newpaper, about three
years old [counting issues
published under its original
name of simply Upfront),
was noted for its excellent
graphics. However, the publication
had a rough time
attracting the amount of
advertising needed to cover
all overhead.
The term "human rights"
could be used to sum up the
general overall editorial
direction of the newspaper.
Several times during the
paper's history, publisher
Van Ooteghem obtained
investors or loans to keep it
alive and even once
announced he had sold it outright
to photographer r.
Hardy Williams. Williams
published the heavily-in
debt newspaper for several
issues and then Van
Ooteghem took back over.
The publication was
started as a non-profit newspaper
with expenses covered
by contributors.
After a few months, it
decided to become commercial.
selling advertising
space.
With the folding of
Upfront. Montrose is left
with two weekly publications:
the MONTROSE VOICE,
a newspaper started in 1980,
and TWT magazine, an entertainment
guide started about
1973.
Van Ooteghem said his
plans now were to open up a
computer service operation,
specializing in accounting
services.
News series to show gay report
A brief story on homosexuals
in Houston is scheduled
to be featured Friday, February
8, on KHOU-TV, channel
11, during the 5:00PM
newscast.
The report is part of a
series the station has been
working on called "Hard
Times in Boom Town." The
series plans to broadcast
reports on forty different
subjects, at the rate of two
each weekday in February.
· The subjects range from
traffic control to growing
Intended raP.e victim
wrestles knife in
Montrose attack
A 31-year-old man was
charged with burglary and
an attempted rape of a female
Montrose neighbor Friday.
Jan. 23, police reported.
The intended victim was
said to have wrestled her
attacker's pocket knife from
him and cut him in the face
and shoulder, then called
police.
The accused attacker, Bill
Albert Futral Jr. of 2011Yz
Harold, was treated at JJen
Taub Hospital and then
arrested, police said.
Officers said the man is
charged with forcing his way
into the woman's apartment
about 8:00AM, Friday. Jan.
23, under the pretext of asking
for help.
He then was said to have
produced a knife and forced
the 32-year-old woman in the
apartment to accompany him
to her bedroom.
Once there, however, she
was said to have succeeed in
grabbing the knife and stabbing
him twice during a
struggle.
Futral was being held
withput bond, police said.
city service needs to gay
rights-issues that have
caught the public's attention
as Houston matures and
expands.
The reports average about
three minutes, although the
one on gay people runs
longer, said Ian Pearson, an
executive news producer at
the station. In his opinion,
the gay rights segment is
"excellent, one of the most
powerful of the forty issues
covered."
The segment includes an
interview with Lee Harrington,
president of the Gay
Political Caucus, the city's
leading gay rights organization.
The interview is conducted
by Newscenter 11
reporter Sharon Adams.
No exact time for airing of
the segment on February 8
was released, only that it will
be sometine during the hourlong
newscast that starts at
5:00PM.
The forty-part series was
scheduled to run from
Februry 2 through February
27.

Will Houston follow
Atlanta in closing of
all 'adult' bookstores?
While bookstores catering to
erotic tastes currently flourish
in Houston, especially in
Montrose, almost all of
Atlanta's "adult" bookstores
and movie theaters have
agreed to close in return for
dismissal of charges against
their employees.
A prosecutor in Atlanta
says the agreement is proof
that "law enforcement now
has the upper hand" against
alleged pornography.
"If you need a dirty book,
you'll have to leave Atlanta
to get it," Glenn Zell. an attorney
for the bookstores, was
quoted as saying.
Zell said owners of at least
sixteen "adult" bookstores
agreed in mid-January to
close their doors on condition
that anti-pornography crusader
Fulton County Solicitor
General Hinson McAuliffe
dismiss all charges
pending against their
employees.
What's the chances of the
scene being repeated in
Houston?
Not probable, most observors
agree, but certainly not
impossible.
One hitch, however, is a
court test now pending
before the Fifth Circuit Court
of Appeals in New Orleans
over the constitutionality of
the current Texas obscenity
law.
If the appeals court overturns
a local ruling and
throws out the Texas law, as
it has done with earlier Texas
obscenity laws, it could be at
least two years before the
state would enact another,
since the Legislature normally
only once every two
years and is currently in
session.
The deadline has passed
for the pre-filing of all bills in
this session.
If the appeals court
upholds the lower the court
decision and keeps Texas'
obscenity law intact, the
defending bookstore and
theater owners, which
includes Montrose Ventures
(owners of Studz News, the
Asylum and the Ballpark],
could appeal to the Supreme
Court, possibly keeping the
law in limbo for about
another year.
The Houston vice squad,
however, might take it on its
own to conduct a large crackdown
in that year. They currently
make a few random
arrests of bookstore clerks
for commercial obscenity
and recently made several
arrests of bookstore customers
for violation of section
21.06 of the Texas Penal
Code, the section that defines
sodomy as illegal.
A Houston attorney familiar
with the arrests said most
occur in the afternoon "when
there's likely to be just
straight-appearing businessmen
in the stores," theorizing
that these usually plead
guilty and pay their fines,
trying to avoid any publicity.
"The vice squad certainly
doesn't want a jail full of
screeming gay rights activists
(that a nighttime 'raid'
might bring]," the attorney
said.
The closing of the doors of
these establishments in
Atlanta puts that city in the
company of Jacksonville,
Fla., as the only other major
city in America to have effectively
banned the sale of
erotic material.
In Houston on Janurary 14,
a clerk for Downtown News,
900 Preston, was sentenced
to three days in jail and fined
$750 for selling a magazine
showing three people simultaneously
engaged with each
other in sexual activity.
William Andrews, 56, was
convicted on a charge of commercial
obscenity, a misdemeanor.
which had a
maximum penalty of a year
in jail and a $2000 fine.
A Houston police vice officer
had purchased the $6.98
magazine last August.

Integrity, eleven years old,
gets tax-exempt status
Integrity/Houston, the oldest
gay organization in the city,
will celebrate its eleventh
anniversary Thursday, Feb.
19, with an open party, the
organization announced.
Just prior to the party, the
group will hold elections for
seven board positions, they
said.
The anniversary celebration
comes exactly one
month after the group, technically
known as IIH Inc.,
received its notification of
tax exempt status from the
Internal Revenue Service,
they said.
Richard Burckhardt, a
former officer in the organization,
said, " We are
extremely happy with (the
IRS] decision and hope that it
will act as a catalyst to
expand our community
services."
Integrity was technically a
"service" organization for its
first ten years but in 1980
was reorganized as an "educational"
corporation.
Houston's gay publications
in 1970 listed Integrity/
Houston as the only gay
organization in the city.
Today, a decade and a year
later, Integrity/Houston,
which is not affiliated in a
non-secular way with any
religious group, is still listed,
along with 24 other gay
groups.
Integrity's current major
project is a community coffeehouse
Friday nights at
Bering Church , 3405
Mulberry.
Ashley Smith wins in
District 83 election
In a special election between
two Republicans for state
representative from District
83, which includes the River
Oaks area bordering Montrose,
moderate Ashley
Smith won over conservative,
anti-gay candidate
Steve Jones. Smith captured
55 percent of the small vote
total on Saturday, Jan. 24.
No Democrats had entered
the race, which originally
had a field of six Republicans
and one Libertarian.
Jones was remembered for
"gay baiting" city controller
Kathy Whitmire when he
once ran against her in
another election.
During the campaigning
for the state representaive
position, Jones, when he
addressing a gathering of the
Texas Gulf Coast Conservative
Caucus Jan. 6, said he
opposed "avowed homosexuals"
teaching in public
schools
Smith made no reported
comments during the campaign
in regard to gay people.
The election was to fill the
seat of Chase Untermeyer,
who resigned to join the staff
of Vice President Bush.
Ogg would raise fees Common Cause complains
AUSTIN-State Senator Jack
Ogg, who represents Montrose,
has introduced a bill in
the Texas Legislature that
would raise filing fees for
judicial races in Harris
County.
The current filing fee is
$700 but Ogg would have it
raised to five percent of the
judge's salary, to keep, as he
put it, "the filing fee at some
respectable level to insure
the candidate is serious."
Ogg maintains that many
young lawyers run for judicial
posts simply for the free
publicity, and not seriously
to win the position.
Pro abortion group lists
Danburg contribution
AUSTIN-State Representative
Debra Danburg of Montrose
received a small $200
contribution from pro abortion
forces during her campaign
against Republican
Hap May. it was announced
in January reluctantly by the
pro-abortion forces, fearing
retaliation by the conservative
Texas Legislature.
"We don't want to embarass
any legislator or cost
him his job. But our job is to
ensure that any person who
wants to seek an abortion
can get one," said Jan Friese
of the Texas Abortion Rights
Action League.
At least seven other candidates
received contributions
from the pro-abortion forces,
they announced.
Several bills are now pending
concerning the abortion
question.
AUSTIN-State Representative
Debra Danburg of Montrose,
a freshman Democrat,
was named Tuesday, Jan. 27,
in a complaint filed with the
Texas Sercretary of State by
Common Cause of Texas,
reported the Houston Chronicle
from its Austin bureau.
Common Cause named the
District 79 representative as
one of seventeen candidates
for the Texas House who had
failed to comply with provisions
of the state's Campaign
Finance Reporting Laws, the
newspaper said.
The organization was
reported to have asked
Secretary of State George
Strake to require the candi-dates
to make a written
explanation for failing to
comply with the law.
Donna Mobley, executive
director of Common Cause,
said Danburg had not met a
Dec. 4 deadline for reporting
her campaign expenditures
in the Nov. 4 general election
to the secretary of state's
office, the newspaper said.
Volunteers for Common
Cause checked the records
the week of Jan. 5-9, the
newspaper said Ms. Mobley
told them.
Rene Rabb, an aide to Rep.
Danburg, said the information
required in the Dec. 4
report has since been filed
with the Secretary of State's
office. the newspaper said,
adding that the campaign
records were filed Jan. 15.
"There appears to have
been some confusion over
what has happened. The
information for the period in
question was filed in a Jan. 15
report, which is our understanding
of what we were
supposed to file as a final
report. Our campaign
records are on file, an.: we do
very much support the idea
of open and full disclosure.
On all our previous reports,
we itemized contributions
that are far less than the
amounts required by law,"
Ms. Rabb was quoted as
saying.

Montrose
every week: ABILENE-Gay people affiliated

It's being billed as the first

and encouragement
to both the old and the new
forming relgious organizations
and churches in Texas."
The meetings will take

It was announced that

Newly-released figures
show that Houston police
killed nine people in 1980,
which compares with sixteen
in Dallas for the year, 22
in Chicago and 20 in Los
Angeles.
Dallas led the nation
among major cities in percapita
killings by police
officers.
New York City did not
immediatley have its 1980
figure available but its 1979
figure was fourteen.
Dallas Police Chief Glen
King says he plans to make
no changes in the department's
policy there on the use
of firearms or the investigating
procedures that follow
police shooting deaths, UP!
reported.
In each of the Dallas
deaths, police in-house
investigations exonerated all
the officers involved.
In fact, in Dallas, more
than 130 killings by police
have been reported since
1972 and in not a single one
has a police officer been
found by the department's
own investigations to have
. unjustifiably killed someone.
Among the nine killings in
Houston last year, one
included gay activist Fred
Paez. '
A grand jury investigation
has resulted in officer Kevin
McCoy being charged with a
misdeamanor in Paez' killing
but his arraignment was
postponed in early January,
this year.
Comparitively speaking
according to population, out
of every 500,000 residents,
Dallas lead the cities listed
here with eight killings, Chicago
and Los Angeles had
four each, Houston had two,
and New York is projected to
have had just one in 1980.
In January, The Civil
Rights Commission, citing a
"distressing increase in
racially motivated violence"
in 1980, urged Congress to
make it easier to prosecute
police who abuse authority.
The commission urged
that federal charges involing
violent acts by police officers
should be treated as felonies,
not misdemeanors.

Free Enterprise
ByEdMutian
Free enterprise, it seems, is
good for everyone, the foundation
of our capitalistic
society, and the embodiment
of the American way.
That is, unless your ox is
being gored by too much
free enterprise. At that
point, it becomes a threat to
the American worker, our
industrial foundations, and
the profits of the particular
industry in distress.
Consider for a moment
the automobile industry.
For decades it flourished
under the gospels of Alfred
Sloan and Henry Ford,
grinding out profits in the
billions of dollars, fueled by
the principle of planned
obsolescence that made it
almost patriotic for American
families to buy one, two
or even three or more new
automobiles at regular
intervals.
Detroit, particularly General
Motors, the largest of
the Big Three by far and the
leader of the industry,
brainwashed us that new
was good and that bigger
was better, at least as far as
automobiles were concerned.
And, in the deathless
words of Charlie
Wilson, former chief executive
of GM and later Eisenhower's
Secretry of
Defense, "What's good for
General Motors is good for
America." Those were
indeed simplier times.
But then the Arabs finally
got smart and told the oil
monopolists to take their
$3.50 per barrel price for
their crude and shove it.
They enforced the oil
embargo of 1973 to get the
attention of the Big Oil
boys, and cheap gasoline
disappeared as fast as a
businessman's morals at a
convention.
What the oil companies
were doing to America's
largest manufacturing
industry with their obscene
greed expressed through a
quadrupling of gasoline
prices was not immediately
apparent.
Soon, however, even the
thickheaded dinosaurs at
General Motors, Ford,
Chrysler and American
Motors woke up to a glaring
fact of life: Americans
wanted small , fuelefficient,
reliable automobiles.
They were unable to
pay the extortion demanded
at the gas pump. They
expressed this wish by
sendmg the percentage ot
the automobiles sold in
America by foreign manufacturers
up to an astounding
25 percent of the total.
Detroit responded by
spending billions of dollars
doing what it should have
been doing for at least the
prior five years and produced
what the customers
wanted. The reason Detroit
delayed for so long was that
they made more profit selling
large gas guzzlers.
Unfortunately, however,
when they did fiunally
bring out the cars they had
labored over for so long,
there was an embarassingly
inconvenient surge in
Potomac Patterns: An
Unwelcome but
Necessary Word About
the Hostages
ByEdMutian
In this first week of the hostages'
freedom from their
one year-plus of terror, torture
and illegal imprisonment,
it behooves us to
reflect on the matter of our
grief. As always, our grief
should be proportionate to
the gravity of the offense to
the victims and the nation.
On balance, it would
seem, that America has
indulged itself in a binge of
melodramatic sentimen.
Ality anknown since perhaps
the reaction to Charles
Lindbergh's crossing of the
Atlantic.
First Jet us say that there
is no disagreement with the
basic idea of gratitude,
relief and joy that is felt by
every American over the
release of the hostages.
However, it is also true that
we ehculd admit that the
entire matter of the
takeover of the American
embassy in Tehran, America's
response to the violation
of the most basic tenet
of diplomacy and international
Jaw, and her subsequent
handling of the
impasse that resulted have
been shameful and cowardly.
At the time of the return
of the veterans of the war in
Vietnam, America had at
last acknowledged her complicity
in a horror and a
tragic crime against the people
of Southeast Asia. There
was no celebration in the
streets, no yellow ribbons
flying from buildings and
trees all over the land. Our
people had sent her finest
young men to do shameful
work, and the country had
the decency to observe an
ominous silence as her
defeated warriors returned.

interest rates. The fall of
1980 was inauspicious timing
for the cars that Detroit
heralded as the answer to
America's prayers. Further,
the prices on the cars were
unheard-of, average eight
and nine thousand dollars.
Result: Detroit is suffering
its worst sales slump in
over twenty years.
No less an authority than
Paul Volcker, Chairman of
the Federal Reserve Board,
in an appearance before a
Senate committee, nailed
the problem squarely, however,
when he stated that
the real reason for the auto
companies' sales difficulties
was their pricing strategy.
Detroit, suffering from
old and very bad habits,
continued to try to wrest the
last nickel of profit from
their new buggies, and
make up for the billions of
dolars they had spent bringing
them out, all in one
model year!
This was in spite of the
fact that the American cars
were noticeably inferior to
foreign cars in quality and
still higher in price than
their foreign competitors.
So now we hear cries
from auto unions, auto
manufacturers and auto
parts suppliers calling for
import quotas, subsidies for
the auto industry, and every
other boondoggle hogwash
scheme that calls for the
American government to
reward the inefficient, the
lazy and the greedy.
It is noteworthy, though,
that the foreign cars are not
suffering a sales slump, and
Chrysler, under the able
direction of Lee lacocca,
which has reduced auto
prices, has recorded significant
sales increases over
1980. General Motors and
Ford, however, following
their same old pattern, continue
to increase their prices
in the face of drastic drops
in their sales. Does this
make any sense at all?
When Chrysler lowers
prices and sells more cars,
and GM and Ford raise
prices and sell less, doesn't
that tell someone something?
And should poor old joe
Schliemel taxpayer be
required to bail GM and
Ford, AMC and whoever else
that insists on trying to
maintain high profit price
levels at the expense of sagging
sales, out of their
present dilemma?
No, hell no, and ten times
no.
Let those who have
drowned us with all this
rhetoric about free enterprise
put their money where
their loud mouths have been
for so long. Let 's see
whether free enterprise is
really free or government
subsidized.

JANUARY 30, 1981
Mr. Fix
Telephone companies
have emphasized tbe advantages
of baYing phones all
over tbe borne. But, wait a
minute.
Not everyone who calls
does so by phone. Some people
come to the door and
ring the bell. Tbere is no
way to mate tbe front door
accessible to every area of
the bouse. You can, however,
install additional bells or
cbunes so that tbey can be
beard in even remote parts
of tbe bouse or in tbe backyard.
It's a simple job. It's safe
as well because you are
working with low voltages.
However, take the precaution
of turning off tbe current
while making connections.
Installing a new bell,
buzzer or cbime involves
eJ:tending wire from tbe old
bell to the new. Tbe new
wires are simply fastened to
the terminals on tbe old bell
without bothering with the
original wiring. Removal of
a cover plate will e:1pose tbe
terminals.
Use regular bell wire.
Easier tban using two
lengths of single conductor
wire is to use a single length
of wire with two conductors.
Strip tbe insulation off the
ends of tbe wires, bend the
wires into slight books, loosen
the terminal screws, slip
the wires under and tighten.
EJ:tending the wires is a
matter of concealment. If
tbe additional bell is in the
basement, run the wires
down alongs•de the frame of
a door or otber woodwork.
Drlll a small hole in the
floor and drop tbe wires
throuib.
If the bell is on tbe same
floor, drop tbe wires down to
tbe basement, bring them
back up again in tbe area of
tbe new bell.
If the old bell is on a closet
wall, you can conceal the
wires by pulling them
through tbat wall and then
down to tbe basement.
If the new bell is on the
second floor, you will ba~·e
to drill a bole in the ceiling.
In this case, it is wise to run
the wires along a baseboard
until you reacb a closet,
bring the wires through the
closet wall and then Jake
tbem up through tbe ceiling.
If your borne has bell buttons
botb front and back
witb a different sound or
combination of sounds indicating
whicb is being
pushed, then you will find
three terminals instead of
two on the bell or chime.
In this case you must run
three wires instead of two to
tbe new bell. And they must
be connected in eJ:actly the
same way.
Tbe wire connectPd to the
terminal marked "rear" on
tbe original bell must be
connected to tbe same terminal
on the new bell.
An extra bell will require
more power than tbe old bell
transformer can deliver.
Tbe transformer steps down
house current to a lower
voltage required by bells
and chimes. Tbe correct
voltage is marked on the
transformer. If in doubt,
your dealer can recommend
the proper size.
Tbe transformer IS often
located on the side of the
fuseboJ: or very close to it.
Two heavy wires enter it on
one side. The bell w1res are
fastened to the terminals on
the other side.
Before replacing the
transformer. remove the
fuse for that circuit or turn
off all of the power If you
are not sure wbat you are
doing, call in an electncian
to handle this part of the JOb

But now this: The outpouring
of unchecked sentimentality
at the return of
unjustly imprisoned per·
sonnel at our embassy in
Iran. They at least were
innocent of any wrongdoing,
and our country owes
them its regrets, its apologies
for the incident, and
reparation for the time
spent in captivity.
But all this? This orgy of
celebration, this media hype
that makes the television
networks practically
explode in coverage, analysis,
specials, and God only
knows what else? The
rivers of type, including this
small rivulet itself made
necessary by the rest, that
report, explain, weigh and
gossip about the families of
the victims? Is all this really
proportionate to the actual
matter itself?
Is it not rather possible
that this reaction to the long
overdue release of the 52
victims is the expression of
America's pent up desire to
have something to celebrate,
to be glad about, to
take pride in as a nation?
The release of the hostages
in itself is rather the inescapable
proof of America's
ineptness and lack of courage.
What a pity that this
should be misconstrued and
seized upon as a cause for
national celebration. Amer·
ica, the land of the free and
the home of the brave,
you've come a long way:
Down. let's hope we can
recover our balance and
begin the long trek upward
in national pride and sacri·
fice that will once again
make our national posture
something deserving of
celebration.
Martinez is associote editor
of the Montrose Voice.

- My ESP continues to
tell me that there will be a
re-negotiation of the grain
trade witll Russia and tbe
Communist-block countries
during late spriDg of lt81,
and it will immensely benefit
the American farmers.
- I feel that soon hospitals
will begin a ··moneyback
guarantee" policy on
their services [including
food). but excluding the
doctors' services.
- I predict that tbe fashion
world will be dominated
during tbe summer of Jt81
by pastel colors, with baby
blue being predominant.
- ESP tells me that
legalized belling will be a
commonplace. run-of-themill
pastime w1th the AmerIcan
pubhc by the mld-
1980s.
- I predict there will be
monumental strides made in
the field of medical discoveries
during the next three
years; some discoveries will
unravel keys to longtime
mysteries, and the domino
principle will result, bringing
the answers to a myriad
common ailments. I also
sense that mny questions
about cancer will be answered
within tbe next two years.
