Authors' Rights to be
Tested in 'Bell Jar' Trial Tie one on.
BOSTON (UP!)-Jury selecllon continued
Thursday in a suit against the
makers of a 1979 film based on Sylvia
Plath 's novel about suicide, The Bell
Jar. that pits the right of authors to
~express themselves against the individual's
right to privacy.
Tht> defamation suit is against the television
movie, not the book. but the case
could have long-range implications for
writers of fiction who create characters
ha!-ied on real people, a defense lawyer
said Wednesday, Jan. 14
Jane Anderson, 5.5, an associate professor
of cliniral psychiatry at Harvard
University Medical School. filed suit in
l' S. Oii-.trict Court. Jury sele<:tion.
expected to ta~t several days, began
Wednesday
Anderson charged defamation of
character, invasion of privacy and
intPntional infliction of emotional harm
a~ a ref.iult of the movie, in which a character
Ander:;on alleges is based on her is
depicted as a lesbian.
The suit names Ted Hughes, the poet
laureat.E> of England and the widower of
Plath. who killed herself in 196:!.
Hughes, f'xecutor of Plath's estate. sold
motion pirture righL'; to the book to a
number of parties.
Plath, in her bestselling 1961 book,
told the story of Esther Greenwood and
her long hattll' with mental illness,
whkh drove her to the brink of suiride.
A kf'y character in the semi
autobiographical book was named .Joan
Gilling. Gilling developed a clo!-le relationship
with the Greenwood chararter.
Harry Manion, Anderson's lawyer,
said Anderson, who was a friend of
Plath's, was identified by name as the
model for Joan Gilling in two biogra·
phies of Plath published in the 1970s.
Anderson objected in the suit to the
movie, portions of which she claimed
wE>re "careless'' and contained elements
not included m the book. She claimed no
objection to the book.
She specifically objected to portions
of the movie that depicted homosexual
advance:; on the part of the Gillingcharactn
townrd the Gre.:·nwood character.
"The defendants knew or should have
known they were dealing with autobio
graphical material. Then they made up
a scene in the movie that defamed my
client. Their behavior was careless,"
Manion said.
Defense lawyers responded that,
although the movie was autobiographi·
cal, the Gilling character was entirely
fictional .
"Our position is that this case is based
on fiction and that no one is ldentified,
no one is harmed," said Hughes' lawyer
Victor Kovnor. "(The suit) is a very trou·
blesomt"' intrusion on the rights Or free
expression by authors to create charactt•
rs based in part on their life's expe.
rience ''
He said Hughes had never heard of
Anderson until the suit was filed in
1982.
Alexander Pratt, lawyer for the other
deff.'ndants, said, "The movie is a fictionalization
of a fictional novel. Thne
are two layers of fiction."

Bar Owners Irked by City's Health Codes
By Sh eri Coh e n Da rbonne
Montrose Voice
Local bar owners may mount an aggressive
campaign to alert Houston City
Council members of "ridiculous" codes
and regu lations they say have been
passed by o.n uninformed council at the
recommendation of the Houston Health
Department.
Suggesting a possible "buddy" relationship
between health department
officials and certain plumbers and electricians,
Alan Pierce told other
members of the Houston Organization
of Bar Owners at its monthly meeting
Wednesday, Jan. 14, that restrictive
new c-odes were being railroaded past a
Man in Jail
Still Suspected
in Other Crimes
While an FBI lab report has apparently
rleared Darryl James Jackson of a 1985
murder in Bellaire, Houston polic-e say
the C'x-c-onvictand ac-cused rohberis still
a strong suspect in a Houston homic-ide .
• Jac-kson was arrested Wednesday,
Jan. 7, and charged two days later with
two c·ounts of robbery after two people
tdt·ntifit·d him in a lineup, police said. In
E'aC'h <'ast•, the• rohht•ry victim was n gay
man who met Jackson in a Montrost•
bar. Tht• ulJC'gt'<l robberies took place in
tht· mt·n 's Southwest Houston homes.
1-l<'Cause of similarities in the C'ircum·
stanc-t•s surrounding the crimt·s and
,JarkHon 's attitudE'. police announc-ed at
the tinw that .luck.son was also a sus
pt·c·t in tht• murders of two men who met
their killers in gay bars. The vic-tims,
Pet<• St. George and William Wayne
Price, both were stabbed to death in
tht•ir homes, and in both cases the
atLackPrs stole the victims' cars.
Hut Bellai re Asst. Chief M.E.
McGuire said Tuesday, Jan. 13, that an
F B.I. laboratory investigation showed
no matc-h betwPen Jac-kson's hair and
fingerprints and hair samples and
prints taken from the scene of the St.
George homicide in December 198!).
"At this point, we're no longer consid·
ering h im a suspect," McGuire sai&.'
"Our case is still open, unless we come
ac-ross additional information."
St. George was the former owner of
The Brasserie, a Montrose restaurant.
Meanwhile, Sgt. S.L. Morrison said
Houston police have evidence connect·
ing Jackson to the Der. 7, 1986, murder
of Pric-r. Morrison said property belong
ing to Prier was found on Jackson when
he was arr<•sted on the robbery charges.
Police attempted to question Jackson
about the case, but the suspect refused
to talk, Morrison said.
"He's been in the penitentiary twice
before. You get to be a 'jail house lawyer'
after awhile, he knowswhatnottosay,"
Morrison commented.
Jackson remains in Harris County·
,Jail, with bail set at $100,000.

council that did not understand the
implications.
At issue are new regulations regarding
the type of sink that must be
installed in the businesses, sea1ing-in
all soft drink lines and the required size
of water lines, which the bar owners
contend is often inconsistent with needs
of the individual establishment.
"There is a tremendous amount of
inconsistency in the codes (the Health
Department) is adopting," Pierce,
HOBO president, said. " ! would like to
see some organized, offensive efforts
from our side."
He recommended appearing before
coundl to explain the more questionable
or wasteful policies and the problems
they present to business people.
Jay Allen added that the health
department is usually "unbending" in
requiring businesses to adhere to the
written rules, although it is at the discretion
of the inspector to decide whether
the codes have been met.
Bar owners reopening after a fire, as
well as those trying to open a new business,
are required to meet all of the new
regulations, Pierce said.
In other business, the group decided
to offer a $500 reward from the Marion
Pantzer Reward Fund for information
leading to the arrest of a man who
stabbed and robbed a Brazos River Bot·
tom bartender, provided enough information
is made available to put
together a flyer and a composite sketch
of the attacker.
The fund. established following the
murder of Pantzer for the purpose of discouraging
personal assault and arson
in Montrose, currently has over $5,500
in its reserve.
Pierce reported that the November
Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission
report indicated a "bounce back" in bar
business compared to the October report
which showed a severe business slump
due to the raising of the drinking age to
21 in September
Jay Allen reported that a major fundraiser
for the Bar Own en; A~sociation of

lobbying organization desperately
needs the money to pay a $6000 debt to
the Internal Revenue Service.

Certain Sex Practices Spread
AIDS More Easily, Says Study
mon t rose
VOICE
HOUSTON TEXAS
ISSUE 325-8
By Larry Doyle
UmtM Press International
CHICAGO-Certain sex practices are
far more likely to spread the AIDS virus
than others, but the safest sex is still to
be found in a monogamous relationships
with an uninfected partner,
researchers reported Thursday, Jan. 15.
A San Francisco study of 796 homosexual
men attributed the spread of
AIDS in that group to being the receptive
partner in anal intercoun;e, with
~ome related practices greatly aggra
vating the risk of infection. Monogamous
homosexuals were no more likely to
be infected than those who abstained
dunng the two-year study period.
A second study by government scientists
confirmed an earlier finding that
T-4 blood c•ll counts were the best predictor
of which people infected with the
AIDS virus would develop acquired
immune deficiency syndrome. The
National Cancer Institute study also
reported that certain behaviors appear
to determine the way AIDS manifests
itself in some victims.
Researchers for both studies, published
in the Journal of the American
Medical A.~sociation. said their findings
should not change the basic public
health message about AIDS: Maintain
a monogamous relationship with someone
of the same infection status. or use a
condom and other safe sex practices to
lower risk.
'"If two people are both not infected,
they can do whatever they want. And,
m fact, if both are infected, they can do
whatever they want," said NCI
researcher Dr.James Goedert. "It's only
when one is infected and the other isn't
that they have problems"
In an attempt to determine which sexual
behaviors might be mo~t re:-;ponsible
for AIDS transmission, researchers
from the University of California at
Berkley surveyed a -random sample of
103·1 single men aged 25-54 in the San
Franl·is<'O area
None of 204 heterm;exual men in the
~tudy was infected with the AIDS virus
and they were excluded from further
analysis. Intravenous drug users also
were excJuded.
Among homosexual or bisexual men,
the overa!J infection rate was 48.5 percent,
with rates jumping dramatically
as then umber of reported male partners
for the previous two years increased: no
reported partners, 17.6 percent; one
partner, 18.2 percent; 2-9 partners, 31.6
percent; 10-49 partners,53.8 percent;
and more than f)() partners, 70.8 percent.
The only sexual practice found to be
significantly related to virus transmission
was being the receptive partner in
anal intercourse. Using a douche or
enema prior to sex boosted the chance of
infection even further, probably
because it removes protective mucus
from the rectal walls, the researchers
said.
Although practicing insertive anal
intercour!ie and oral sex did not increase
the risk of becoming infected, "that
doesn't mean the virus can't be transmitted
that way," researcher Nancy
Padian said. She also emphasized the
findings cannot be extrapolated to vaginal
intercourse, which likely is potentially
infectious to both partners.
"What this study really shows is how
important it is to engage in safe sex
practices," she said. "And that includes
using condoms and avoiding certain
practices with anal intercourse such as
douching or causing other rectal
trauma."
Jn the NCI study, 86 homosexual men
from the New York and Washington
area were analyzed over a three-year
period after testing positive for the
AIDS virus. During that time, 19 of the
men developed AIDS.
The researchers found they could pre·
diet which men would develop the disease
by measuring their levels of T-4
cells. the white blood cells that play host
and victim to the AIDS virus. The find·
ing corroborated a study published last
week in the Neu· England Journal of
Medicinl", and may prove an import.ant
tool in documenting progression of the
disease. Goedert said
Goedert said the NCI study went a
step further, however, collecting preliminary
data suggesting certain behavior
common to the homosexual lifestyle

Money is the Problem
Group Agrees to
Community Center Concept
By Sheri Cohen Darbonne
.\fontrose \.~01C'e
A mixed group attending a special met-ting
of Montrose Activity Center Monday
night, .Jan. 12. agreed in conc(·pt
with eEitnhlishing a community C('nt{'r
m central Montrose. but showPd ~ome
skepticism over whether funds were
available to finance &uC'h a project.
About 30 individuals and representa·
t.ves of organizations including Gay
Political Caueus, the Montrose Counseling
Center. Womynspare, the Guardian
Angels and AIDS Foundation Houston
heard a history of MAC and the com·
munity center project before the floor
was opened for questions.
Moderators Joe Wilson and Dwayne
Wells, both trustees on the temporary
board of MAC. explained "MAC's
vision"' of the proposed center as a centralized
location for organizational
office space, meetings, social servires
and social activities. The center itself
would be non-aligned. v..ith noorganiza"
tional, political or religious affiliations.
and open to al] in the community who
Wlsh to use it with no specific "target"
l(roup. they said.
But a discussion of a prospective
phy1;ical location raised concerns about
raising enough funds to make a down
payment on a suitable building. Wells
admitted that start·up money currently
available to MAC through its Gay Pride
Week rt:serves was only enough to cover
preparatory expenses, such as postage
for early project communications
Jerry Blum of Acker·Blum Realty,
whoRe aid MAC had enlisted to research
the real estate aspect, reported that
depressed market conditions would
probably continue another six to eight
wttks. Most mortgage companies, how
ever, are looking only at higher pri<-ed
building~. he said. Blum reC'ommend{'d
seek g an owner-financed property
situation or nssumption
.Jerry Hlum of Acker-Blum Realty
whose aid MAC had enlisted to mserch
the real estnte nspect, reported that
depressM mnrkt·t conditions would
probably continue another six to eight
weeks. Most mortgage companies. how
t•ver are looking only at higher prireci
buildings, ht> said. Blum recommended
set•kin~ an owner·financed property
Bituation or assumption.
The asking price for a 20,000 square
foot building is in the $400,000-500,000
range, Blum said. When asked where
the estimated $150,000 down payment
on such a building would come from,
Wells told the audience. "From you."
Wilson commented that how much
space is needed for a center is still being
discus~ed. and that there are other
options to outright purchase of a build·
ing, including long-term leasing.
Blum had noted earlier that many
buildin~s are available for lease at this
time, and that rents are at a low.
MA(' board member Ray Hill fiaid
re!-lources were available, but that extra
efforts to .. ma.si;age wallets" of the "fat
cats" mav nt.·l'd to be made.
••t am ~illing to use every effort I've
ust-d in the past (to obtain funding) for
numerous other things, and God knows
I've spent millions of dollars of this com·
mumty's money over the years." Hill
quipped.
But Mark Stev•ns said he did not
understand where MAC could find
enough money
·r,pc has he-en trying to retire a d('ht
for years that is less than a tt>nlh of
what needs to lK• raist>d,'' Steve-ns said.
GPC mt>mher Pat Gandy respondt>rl,
however, that the caucus' drbt is now

questions from the audience did not
indicate a lack of enthusiasm for the
community renter
"I'm n•al exritrd ahf,ut this. I know a

Gandv said
Mn~go Sht•lton of Womynspare said
the money is available if the community

''You do have to push the community.

over our skepticism," said Shelton, who

Ribaviran Testing to
Continue in Houston
By Sheri Cohen Darbonne
ltfontrva ~ \/01ce
Testing of the experimental drug ribavi·
ran. also called virazole, will <'ontinue
on HouRton patients previously enro1led
in a six-month studv of the drug, Dr.
Peter Mansell, medi~al director of the
Institute for Immunologiral Disorders,
annou..,ced Monday_ Results of the
study, conduttf>d at research centers
aero s the country. were released Fri day,
Jan. 9. in Washincton, D.C.
Rihavirin. which interferes with the
replication of HlV virus that caust>R
AIDS, appears to at ,east Rlow the pro~
css10n to full-blown AIDS in patienL'
v.;th Lymphadenopathy syndrome. or
LAS. Of 163 patients with LAS in the
national ~tudy, 52 were given a daily
dose of BOO milligrams of the drug; 55
were ~1 ven a lower dose of 600 milh·
grams and .~6 were given a placebo. Ten
patients in the placebo group and six in
the group receiving 600 milligrams
developed AIDS, while none who
received the higher dose progressed to
AIDS as defined bv the National Cen·
ters for Disease Co~trol, Mansell said.
In Houston, 47 pal!ents at M.D. And·
erson Hospital and (after its opening
S..pt. 2, 1986) the Institute for Immunological
Disorders were involved in the
study. Of these, six in a placebo group
developed AIDS. One patient who
received 600 milligrams of ribavirin
daily went on to develop the disease.
Mansell acknowledged "some pm•Si·
ble objections" to the statistics in the
placebo woup. Three of the patients
who got AIDS developed the disease
early on in the study, indicating they
may have already had it; two actually
did not develop full-blown AIDS until
after the technical conclusion date of
the tria1. However, he pointed out that
m terms of''significantevents," such as
opportunistic infections. the results of
the test were even more favorable for the
drug. Jn the pla""bo ~oup. J 7 signifi·
cant eventt; were recorded and 10
appeared in the low-dose group, while
none of th• patients taking 800 milh·
grams daily developt'd significant in fee·
lions.
Another advantage of ribavirin,
according to Mansell. is its low toxicity
Only mild side effects, including insomnia
and gastrointestinal discomfort.
were reported in the ~oup taking the
higher dose. Other side effects of the
orallv-administered drug could be
notic~ in trials ofribavirin on ''sicker''
patienti-;, or at higher doses. Mansell
noted

The drug's manufacturer Viratek,
Inc., a division of ICN Pharmaceuti
cals. has not yet applied for Investigative
New Drug status because the FDA
has onlv had data on the tests for a few
days, Mansell said
' It's important not to rush these fed ·
erai agencies." he commented. The FDA
is in the pro<·ess of reviewing and ana·
lvzing the test results. he said. When,

to respond to the drug company hf' said
There are three directions the agency
could take in its decision. Mansell
explained. He said he favored a " treat
ment IND," which would make the drug
available for use on LAS patients only
The FDA could also approve the drug
for ~t·neral acres!-i and use for a variety
of indications, or 1t could decide not to
approve the drug at all.
A separate trial of the drug's effects
on patienl' with AIDS-related complex
(ARC) will be completed in mid·
February, but th• results will probably
not be available until April, Mansell
said. Testing of the drug on A IDS
patients was begun in Boston.
The drug does not appear to do any·
thing to restore a damaged immune system,

although the latter ha.' not been proved.
The researchens still do not know what.
if any, effect ribavirin has on the HIV
virus. Mansell said.
Mansell dismissed as "nonsense"
accusations that the pharmaceutieal
company and research team released
the test results too early. The results hnd
to be released for three reasons, he said.
"The investigator!'; involved in the
studv had to tell their patients what
they~ were getting. It was no longer ethi·
cal to keep this information from them,"
Mansell said. Also, the FDA requires
pharmaceutical companies to disclose
such information, and the Securities
and Exchange Commission requires
companies to make available any in for·
mation that could affect their stock rat
ing. he added.
Al1 patients involved in the local
study were offer•d the opportunity to go
on the 800-milli~am dose of the drug.
About 40 patients at the institute are
now on ribavirin. Mansell said.
Besides Mansell, the researchers
involved in the national ribavirin trial
were Dr. Richard Roberts, New York

Mayor Will Not Make Deal with
'Democratic Awareness' Committee
By Sheri Cohen Darbonne
Jfontrost' Voice
Mayor Kathy Whitmire has voiced her
oppofiition to an agreement between the
host committee for the Democratic
National Convention and the"Committee
for Democratic Awareness," and a
mayoral aide said the flap could hurt
Houston's bid to be the convention site.
Meanwhile. representatives of the ad
hoc committee, which has attempted to
convince the host committee to address
the issue of anti-gay bias by the Houston
Chamber of Commerce, were to hold
a closed.door meeting Thursday night,
Jan. l!J, to discuss their next move. The
seven members currently serving on the
committee are Gene Harrington, Ray
Hill, Lou Vanech, Jack Valinski, Sam
Cannon, Joe Wilson and Sue Lovell.
Insisting that adoption of any of the
group's stated goals implied a contractual
agreement with a special interest
group in return for support of the bid,
Whitmire announced Wednesday night
that she opposed allowing any group to
use the convention effort as a means of
gaining a concession.
Mayoral aide Paul Mabry said Thursday
that the mayor's objections had
nothing to do with prejudit·e against
gays or any other minority
"She objected in general with the host
committee's making an agreement with
any group on issues not directly related
to the cunvention; ' he said.
If gays are allowed to demand specific
goals in return for supporting the con
vention, other groups could do the !:lame,
resulting in " total chaos." Mabry
cla1mod
Hut Harrington , one of the awareness
committee organizers. insii.;ted the host
rommittE'e has already engaged in
"negotiations" with a special interest
group.
"If IMayor Whitmire) can call what
we're doing blackmail, what about
when the AFl.rCIO threatened to throw
up a picket line at the convention center'.>
Isn't that blackmail?" Harrington
said.
Harrington said he had been told by
Clintine Cashion, the mayor's representative
on the host committee. that negotiations
were in progress with union
representatives.
Mabry, however, said to his knowl-edge
no concessions were being madr to
organized labor
''We have asked for and received lettens
of support from the unions without
promising anything in return," Mabry
stated
Everyone should understand the
worth of this convention to the city," he
said. "If gays want a platform to air
their grievances, what better opportunity
could they have than the convention?"
The mayor's position is that the sole
function of the host committee should
be to win the convention bid, Mabry
said. He suggested that Atlanta and
New Orleans, Houston's two major competitors
for the host site, could tum the
negative publicity aroused by the dispute
to their advantage.
Harrington said members of the
awareness committee are "confused" as
to what the mayor's objections are to its
goals, which assistant host committee
chair Russel Rau earlier agreed to help
implement.
According to the agreement, the host
committee would adopt a statement of
Democratic Party philosophy assuring
hospitable treatment of all attending
the convention, including lesbians and
gay men; allow gays meaningful participation
on the host committee; and
assist in setting up a line of communication
between gays and the business
community.
On Sunday, Jan. 11 , Cashion met
with representatives of several gay
organizations to explain her position on
the agreement. At the time, she said the
goals wen• reasonahle and that two of
them were already an inherent part of
Democratic Party phi.osophy towards
minorities ,
Cashion said a lineofc·ommunication
between gays and the business e~tablishment
should be pursued independ·
ently by gay leaders since it did not
relate to the convention
Harrington said he indicated in a letter
to Rau that a separate dialogue on
that particular issue was acceptable to
the awareness committee.
Annit;e Parker, preRident of the Houston
Gay Political Caucus. said the
mayor overreacted to an issue that had
already played itself down and that she
felt the resulting publicity could hurt
the gay community
A story that appeared in the Houston
Post Thursday "makes it appear that
the entire gay community is involved,
and that is not the case," Parker said.
The Committee for Democratic
Awareness is not directly aligned with
any other gay organization in Houston,
although members have approached
organizations for support. Parker
added HGPC declined to adopt the
goals of the group at 1L~ meeting Jan. 7
because members felt the convention
issue should not be used as a vehicle to
address the bias problem, she said.
"Our basic reasoning was that these
issues should be addressed directly .. .
the convention should not be held hostage,"
Parker said.
Publicity regarding the convention
controversy "gives more ammunition to
the homophobes," Parker commented.
However, she pointed out, the Awareness
Committee had already dropped its
more radical goals and had been working
on general principles to achieve
improved relations between gays and
the business community.
"We didn't make an issue of this, the
mayor did," Parker said.
The Committee for Democratic
Awareness first organized in November
1986, spearheaded by Harrington .and
attorney Tom Coleman, who has smce
moved to California. [n its early days
the group stated a general goal of educating

Ensemble Dramatizes Social
Themes in 'Ameri/Cain Gothic'
Review by Bill O'Rourke
Montrose Voice
\\'hen I went to see The Ensemble's
Ameri Cain Gothic. I came expecting a
gripping drama about Rev. Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr.'s assassination. In
truth, this play has next to nothing to do
with that. It onlv uses it to e8tablish
iromc context, helping to build sus·
pense.
I also expected the play to talk about
the double standard affecting blacks I
compare favorably with many of Ten·
ne~see William's women. Director Sterling
Vappie has wisely helped to
develop every nuance of this well·
rounded spinster.
The Em;<·mhle is a wonderful theater
People of true talent in every phase of
the theatf'r are in the habit of working
there. In recent play selections a coura·
geous priority has been given to social
relevancv over suc-h other concerns as
entertai~ment value.

thought it would show the oppression
that courageous dreamer helped to lead
us from. There were suupcon~ of that
stirred into the ragout.
One of the major characters in the
play is a detective. He had a lot of trouble
getting that job. Was it because he
was black? He allows a reclusive
womnn to lock him in her hotel room
and keep him pri~oner for a full day
while he's on a major ca~e.
A major plot turning happens when
the woman mis8es an important train
connecticin when the porter can't 1ifther
trunk. She sees him as a devil. Is it
because he's black? Later on she marries
Christ due partly to the stirring sermon
given by a black tent crusader
Clearly, these two men-the detective
and the porter-were not oppressed
because they were black, but because
they were incompetent.
This play's•true thematic priority lies
in the double standard affecting
women. The woman's blind faith in a
male God and her innate sense of fair
play (not justice) make her try to play
her life by the men's rules. What is for a
man an "accident" quickly forgotten,
warps her whole life. This is a meaty
question, well tackled.
Becau~e the man points out early on
that be could break that old door off its
hinges, his day.Jong imprisonment is
unbelievable. So the priority is clearly
not given to the plot. The play would
&Pem to want to be an allegory, but the
points ,t tries to make are continuously
muddied hy details of character development.
So the playwright's goal must
have been the characters, right? But the
detect1ve bi unbelievable for the same
reason the plot is, regardles~ of how well

Houston
Metropolitan
Ministries
Loses Office
Equipment
in Burglary
Police on Wednesday were still looking
for the burglars who took a$40,000 computer,
several typewriters and other
electronic equipment from the offices of
Houston Metropolitan Ministries, 3217
Montrose, sometime Sunday evening,
Jan . 11.
J.J. Britton, director of administrative
services for the interfaith charity
organization, said the burglars entered
by breaking a rear door and window to
the building, then dismantling a security
gate at the entrance to the upstairs
offices. The gate has been repaired and
additional security measures have been
implemented since the thefts, which
probably took place after 3:00 p.m. Sunday,
Britton said. There were no witnesses
to the crime.
Can Mr. Reagan Kick the Habit?
The burglary was discovered and
reported about 7:30 a.m. Monday. The
computer that was stolen had stored
donor and employee files that will be
difficult to rebuild, Britton said. Not all
of the items taken were completely
insured, she noted,
The Innocent Bystander
By Arthur Hoppe
President Reagan's budget elimmates
the $22.5 million protided this year for
state and local drug enforcement u:ork,
cuts in half the $200 million allowed for
in·.~chool drug edu
cation and freezes
funding for drug
abuse treatment.
Good morning,
VCR owners and
other shut·ins. It's
time for another
chapter of "The
Golden Years," the
heartwarming saga
of a lovable senior
citizen who gave up his career as a
retired movie actor to become a hearon
of hope for freedom-hungry people
everywhere.
As we join Ronnie today, he is surrep·
titiously sprinkling a second teaspoon
of sugar on his bowl of All-Bran. His
attractive wife, Nancy, frowns disap·
provingly
Nancy: Really, Ronnie, you know
that's not good for you.
Ronnie: Gosh, I can't help it I get this
craving for it. My mouth waters, my fin·
gers tighten on the spoon. An over~
whelming urge . .
Nancy'. It's a lot easier to kive up a
second teaspoon of sugar than it is to
give up drugs.
Ronnie: Drugs? I don't take drugs.
Nancy: I was thinking of all those
young people out there, struggling to
break the chains of their vicious drug
habits and make something of
them~elves-without any help whatsoever
from some people I could name.
Ronnie: You're mad at me, aren'tyou?
I can tell by the way you're mashing
your egg with your fork. I think you got
some on the toaster.
Nancy: I'm a little hurt, that's all. I
mean you say it's our budget and then
you do this.
Ronnie: Oh. I know! It's those cuts in
your drug program, isn't it?
Nancy: ( don't ask for much, a couple
of hundred million for my pet project
Ronnie: ftrying to pat her shoulder)
Golly, I'm sorry, Mommy. But a
hundred million here and a hundred
million there could add up to real
money, It's time to tighten our belts, and
we have to start isomewhere. So don't
you think we should trim all the non·
essential proj..TTams that.
Nancy: Non-essential! But you said
just last fall that drugs were-and I
quote-"as dangerous to our national
security as any terrorist or foreign dicta·
torship."
Ronnie: That was before elections.
Nancy: And I was so proud of you, the
way you called for voluntary drug tests
and stood up before the nation to show
the way,
Ron me; That was before my prostate
operation.
Nancy: And while I'm struggling to
make ends meet on a couple of hundred
million a year, you're out carousing
with the boys, talking up billion-dollar
weapons systems.
Ronnie: Gee, Mommy, you know how
it is. I'll be sitting around relaxing with
the guys, and some general will say,
"Hey, have you tried this new orbiting
laser mirror? Wow, it's the real stuff!" I
never see where one little orbiting laser
mirror could hurt.
Nancy: You know very well something
like that leads to a couple of pop·
up blasters and then a dozen killer
sai..llites. Before you know it, you're off
on a trillion·dollar binge.
Ronnie: But all the other guys think
it's great. "Come on, Ronnie," they say,
"have another snort of Star Wars."
What can I do.
Nancy: (laking his hand) Please
dear, it's so simple. Just say no.

Britton said that although there had
been incidents of forced entry to the
building in the past. no major thefts had
taken place. Metropolitan Ministries
haR occupied the renovated building for
three years, and was located at the same
site prior to the renovation. The charity
group is supported by a coalition of area

Advertising
Somewhere
Else?
You can pay LESS or MORE for Gay Advertising ... but you still
get less unless you pick the Voice.
There are 3 Houston gay community publications. Us, them and
them.
You can buy advertising in that other newspaper. They're the
cheapest of the three. In fact, they're about 10% cheaper than the
Montrose Voice. BUT, you get less too. Their circulation is more than
30% less than the Montrose Voice.
Or you could buy advertising in that magazine. They're the most
expensive of the three. (Whoa' Let's italicize expensive.) A typical
small magazine half-page costs about 40% more than a typical (and
about twice as big) tabloid quarter·page in the Voice. And what do
you get? Still less Houston circulation than the Voice.
The Voice is the choice with the highest Houston circulation. The
Montrose Voice circulates each week in Houston about as ma ny
copies as that other newspaper and that little magazine combined.
After the air clears, after comparing our news, their convenience,
our cartoons, their pretty boys, our classifieds, their classifieds, a nd
everything else, there emerges one final difference for Houston gay
advertising-and it's an eleven letter word: CIR CUL A T I 0 N
Real, solid Houston circulation for getting your message to the
public.
The Voice has thousands more reade'" than them or them-and
the Voice has, by fa r, the most co~t-effective advertising rates.

A Travel Rally and the Changing ofTuam
Around Town by Elroy Forbes
Montrosr Voice Social Director
o Travel Rally
Merlin, Ken Simmons, Reba Wench,
King Henry VJJJ & Queen Anne Boleyn,
The Mystery Monk and Fifi, the French
Wench, three members of the British
Caledonia Bagpipe Band were but a few
of the entertainers as some 500 travel
agents and guests filled the Central
Ballroom of the Hotel Inter-Continental
Wednesday night at the British Caledonia
Travel Show.
A mystery play was solved and two
winners won round trips to London.
Other drawings inc1uded a free trip to
Paris, Amsterdam, Geneva and Brussels
Some 32 booths promoted European
tours, rontinental hotels, castle
tourR, English pubs and the like_ A lavish
buffet and several bars treated the
crowd as royalty.
Attending agents from our commun
ity included Advance Travel's David
and Ted, Kevin Hill of World Travel
International; Glenn Slade of
Adventure Tours; Almeda Travel;
Atlas Travel; Freda of Travel
Unlimited; and Kenn of International
Travel, plus many others. Mike
Wiengart, founder of Houston Business
Journal, now president of Utopia
Travel was there.
On Monday, the entire show goes
aboard a Mississippi River boat to
The day after Christmas, the historic
Exile Club on Bell Street was bulldozed.
A slice of history bit the dust. But
on Valentine's Day, Exile II will open
on Tuam at Balrlwin Street. The new
club will have a stage, dressing rooms,
game room, a long L-shaped bar, a
cruise rack and a half-block parking lot.
The space, formerly the Greek Island
R<:>staurant, is up the street from PoPU·
Jar Harry's Restaurant and The
Lazy J. Owners Tony, Peter (Smokey)
El1jelizalde, Bob Weaver and Joel
Cooper plan to preserve the best of the
old Exile with super innovations.
At 109 Tuam, you can wave goodbye
to the Same 01' Hole. New owners are
carefully redoing the building to open
the later part of February. Watch for

steam out of New Orleans. I want to be
there for that.
o Our Changing
Landscape
Th(.• old trolley line stopped on Fairview
at Mandell. For five cents you could ride
up Fairview past Taft Street, around the
~nd and onto Tuam. At Smith Street
you connected with the trolley ford own·
town . The trolley lines were closed in the
40s and the tracks taken up. Except for
somr minor changes, Tuam has
remained the same.
Today, Tuam is about. to leave its
sleepy past and rival Pacific Street for
action. A few blocks north lies the BRB.

announcements about this location.
FYI: remember the Wonder Bar,
Montrose at Westheimer? That may
give you a clue as to what will happen at
this location. Meanwhile, improve·
ments will convert the top of the 01'
Hole to an apartment. The popular patio
will he remodeled, too.
Farther up Tuam is a structure that
has caused much controversy. Conser·
vatives claim it is a waste of uour"
money. Rut civic groups such as Avon
dale, Neartown, Neartown Business
Alliance and The Greater Montrose
Business Guild plan to send awards to
this unique HL&P substation. A square
block of unsightly electrical transformers
was changNI into a landscaped
pavilion rontaining plaques to honor
outstanding Houet.onians who lived
n{'ar this new landmark. Brick, tilf!'
The owners of Exile JI
glass and aluminum have transformed
this block into a marvel of urban design
Next time I will tell you about
changes on West Gray as it transcends
out of decay.
o Alley Benefit
I hope that you have your tickets for the
Jan. 30 and JI performances of Larry
Kramer's The Normal Heart. Proceeds
from these two evenings are being
donated to the AIDS Foundation Houston
. Mail orders are due by Jan. 23_ The
$25 donation, which can be charged to

Sunday, 4:00 p.m., at Tony P. 's. 219
Marshall No. 2~7. 526-4942. The last
party was one of the best of the year.
Kevin Trayor, visiting Houston from
Seattle, had his truck stolen from
behind the Boobie Rock while he was
exploring the mystery of Mary's. Na tu·
rally he wants the two-tone brown Ford
F-100 pickup truck back If you see
Washington licen"e PDQ-003 on a 1983
pickup. please call 522-8970 and leave
word. All of Ke\'in's luggage was inside
the cab.
The Wildlife is really back at Mary's.
Saturday at II :00 p.m. there will be a
"Welcome Home Pickles" celebration.
Hot deejay Dand Royalty reports the
Brazos River Bottom signed a con·
tract with lsaaC' Payton Su·eat. also
known as the king of the Cotton Eyed
Joe. He will perform four shows in two
days, Jan. 30 and Feb. I. David is so
excited he spun the first public playing
of lsaar's newest song, "The Joe Bailey
Roll" and is anxiously awaiting for the
disc to hit the national charts.
Decorator Warren Duncancson has
arrived back from Hawaii after a vacation
with Tony. W.D. stopped over in
Los Angeles to visit an ailing aunt when
he met the Reu. Jesse Jackson at L-A.
International Airport. Warren had to
purchaf;e another ticket for, in his
excitement, he had Jackson autograph
the only thing handy, his air ticket.
While Warren is busy getting ready for
the Christmas in Montrose meeting
(Jan. 26, 7:00 p.m., 1413 Westheimer),
Tony has flown on to Chicago for businef\
s.
Robert Howery reported, while dining
at Charlies, he is planning a London
playcation in the very near future. 0th·
ers in the crowd included Joe Porro, Tim
Pahl, and Alton Marshall.
To the unintiated who may have
stumbled into The Ranch last Tuesday,
the mayhem was t:"t'ntered around
Becky's birthday celebration. Congrats
