"' Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank hired a
1'"l"l hustler four years ago. Of course, "hustler" never ap-
~ peared in any of the news stories as that terminology is
ai "gay," giving was the straight usage of "male prosti~
tute."
(/)
~ The incident is clearly unfortunate for Frank, one of
~ the most outstanding members of Congress and a lib-
"-
er eral, and an open member of the gay community. Fall-
~ ing back on the humor for which he is noted, Frank
~ agreed that the incident will be used in the next cam~
paign, noting that "if I was planning strategy, this is not u
~ one of the events I would propose:'
~ Not surprisingly, the Republicans wasted little time 0
:= (if only they could react so swiftly to S&L crises and
~ HUD payoffs) in circulating a copy of the hustler's gay
newspaper ad. Edward Rollins, co-chairman of the National
Republican Congressional Committee, immediately
called for an Ethics Committee investigation.
And Rollins understands sleaze from his promotion of
the now infamous attack on Speaker Tom Foley which
implied more than liberal commonality with the same
Barney Frank.
Showing his usual good political judgment Frank
has asked for such an ethics investigation. Whatever
that outcome, ultimately the final verdict will come
from the voters in Frank's district. We can only hope
he will be judged on merit and the ever present honesty
so characteristic of this needed role model to our community.
The downside is, unfortunately, the character of the
hustler, Steven Gobie. Gobie is no one's role modelconvicted
of drug charges, shoplifting and sex
charges, Gobie is now openly soliciting offers for his
"story" which will undoubtedly "improve" in the telling.
Our community is not immune from such individuals.
Often some of our worst enemies are within the
community, feeding their own self-hate on the gay body
politic, always to the delight of our non-gay enemies.
As in the case of Gobie, these destructive members of

our community have no history of being productive to
the community.
On a more positive note, we strongly urge anyone interested
in gay rights to attend the reception/or state
Sen. Craig Washington Thursday, September 7, at
Treebeard's Restaurant (315 Travis in Old Market
Square). The Texas Human Rights Foundation, one of
our community's "productive" organizations, is
hosting this appreciation reception. And Washington,
a leading supporter of gay and lesbian rights in the
state legislature, is now seeking the vacant U.S. House
seat so ably held by Mickey Leland, a true champion of
individuals' rights including those of our community.
Any THRF function is crucial in raising much needed
funds to fight our legal battles, but this event provides
an opportunity to demonstrate our community's commitment
to support those public officials who, at some
political risk, work for our rights.
So if you have ever asked yourself what you can do
/or the cause here is a prime opportunity. And even if
you can't afford to contribute to THRF you will be most
welcome.

Artists pulling work from Corcoran
By SANDY SARDELLA
H>H THE MONTHOSE \.'Oll'E
WASHINGTON (UP!)-Artists
contributing to two exhibits scheduled
to appear at the Corcoran
Gallery of Art this season have
withdrawn their work because the
museum canceled a highly acclaimed
exhibit by photographer
Robert Mapplethorpe, a gallery
spokeswoman said Wednesday.
The two exhibits were designed
to survey trends in contemporary
art.
A third, much larger exhibit mvolving
Soviet and American artists,
also is endangered, officials
said Wednesday.
The Mapplethorpe display,
which had been scheduled to open
July l, was canceled abruptly by
the Corcoran in June amid fears of
retribution by Congress as the National
Endowment for the Arts
agreed to begin looking at the
process of federal funding of con
troversial art shows.
The exhibit was then moved to
the Washington Project for the
Arts. It was highly acclaimed and
more than 48,000 people lined up
to see the Mapplethorpe photographs.
Mapplethorpe, a New
York City photographer, recently
died of AIDS.
A bill introduced by Sen. Jesse
Helms, R-N.C., which would prohibit
federal funding of "obscene
or mdecent" art, passed the Senate
but has not yet been approved in
the House.
The unprecedented decision by
the Corcoran to halt the showing
of Mapplethorpe's work-which
included flowers, portraits and
some graphic images with homosexual
themes-had been shown
elsewhere without objection. The
cancellation and the attendant debate
sparked an uproar over censorship
of the arts.
Artists have demonstrated outside
the gallery, demanding separation
of "art and state:•
The first affected exhibit, "Gallery
One: Annette Lemieux;' was
scheduled to run from Oct. 28 to
Dec. 31, but has been "indefinitely
postponed," said Corcoran
spokeswoman Debbie Shnvec
The second, a work of six sculptors
scheduled for showing next
Feb. 3 to April 8, was canceled outright,
Shriver said.
Corcoran Director Christina
Orr-Cahall could not be reached
for comment Wednesday. She told
The Washington Post earlier that
she feared such action by artists
when the work by Mapplethorpeone
of the premier photographers
of his generation-was canceled.
"We're in the middle of the
storm;' Orr-Cahall told The Washington
Post earlier. 0 We are
working hard to combat the Helms
Amendment. We're trying to deal
with the imperiled situation that
we see now, and which we saw in
April and May. It is no longer business
as usual anywhere in the art
world and certainly not at the
Corcoran:'
The 10 American artists involved
in the third show, "10 plus
10: Contemporary Soviet and
American Painters:· scheduled for
showing next April 21 through
June 24, may still vote to veto the
appearance, said E.A. Carmean,
an organizer for the exhibit.
But the show, organized by the
Modern Art Museum of Fort
Worth, Texas, also involves Soviet
artists and is expected to be shown
in the Soviet Union after the
Corcoran display.
Carmean said canceling the
Corcoran exhibit might be seen,
ironically, as censorship of their
Soviet counterparts.
"The decision depends on upcoming
discussions with the artists
who are weighing the concerns
of their own reactions to the
Corcoran as well as concerns for
their Soviet colleagues, who, in
many cases, have not had their
own work displayed in the United
States;' Carmean said Wednesday.
Organizers of the Soviet-American
exhibit are coming up with alternative
means to express concern
over the Helms amendment.
"One thing we have proposed to
the Corcoran, and they have
agreed to it, is a symposium on our
system of freedom in this country,
which would involve American
and Soviet artists, which would
take place in Washington ... when
Congress is in session;' Carmean
said.

"Despise fajitas."
"Well, how about Borderline Wednesday. $1.00 import
beer can't be beat."
"Beer, blah. Can't stand it."
"Okay, Okay, fine," he raved, turning red in the face.
"Let's talk about Wild Weekends with $.75 tequila shots on
Friday and Saturday and $1.25 mimosas, poinsettias, a11d Bloody
Marys on Saturdays and Sundays. Plus our great brtmchfrom
1 lam to 4pm on Saturday and Sunday. Plus $1.00 well drinks
and schnapps on Super Saturday. Find a way to hate all that," He
screamed in frustration.
'"WI!d Weekends.' That's a stupid name. Did you think of
that one yourself?"
It took three customers, a busboy, and the obese Spanish
cook to restrain him.

The grau waa incredibly high. We
were driving on paved. road, but the
monkey grau an4 the tall tropical
plants bruahed the aide of the car, aa
we aped through the empty area
where no human had paaaecl. on foot
for years. Luah foliage crowded upon
ua, maJdng ua feel claustrophobic an4
frightened, an4 we were so relieved to
know that we would not have to traverse
thU ditticult path at night, when
God l<nowm what would be lurkiDg in
thebuah.
Were we near the .Amazon? Were we
traveling a narrow Andean road in the
heart of Pygmylan4'i' llTo,Dear Pana. It
waa much more barren an4 wil4 than
that! We were ...
On Smith Street south of downtown

Thia ta a truth, Dear Pana. Amanda
recently paued through thU area on
her leiaurely way out of downtown
one day thU week, an4 we were absolutely
lllll&lled at the jungle growth
towering against the street. Ofc:oune,
it'• all barren waatelan4, but it'• so unfortunate.
After an, Dear X&thy

a wandering elephant will tromp on
our delicate ki4-.ncaaed. tootaiaal
Think of what someone bomlllinneapolb
or Chicago mu.at wonder u
they pau through these areas!
We have Jong wondered what ta to
become of thU vast waatelan4 south
of Downtown, Dear l'anm. It'• so tragic
that all that lan4 ta sitting so economically
vacant, when years ago,
stately homaa tilled those streets.

valuable property can be so
grouly ignored.
Yet, we speed by on our way to an4

Building something beautiful is what you have in mind. While your talents
and abilities shine in the process, this is not a solitary undertaking. The co·
operation between you and at least one other person is paramount to sue-

;: CANCER
Your need for financial security could be taking unneeded precedence
over other aspects of your life. Yes, it does look like you're achieving
some of your goals in regard to material matters, but don' t disregard everything
and everyone else.
LEO
You're all in a whirl, a social whirl.
Use your creative and organiza·
tional abilities to bring people to·

other words, have a party. Concern
for others comfort and enjoyment
is bound to make it a good
one.
VIRGO
Recognize your position as a role
model for a younger person in
your life and act accordingly.
There's nothing at all difficult
about doing it. All you have to do
is pay attention, spend some enjoyable
time together, and be you.
LIBRA
Balancing the need of family with
the needs of friends will require
some extra attention. The needs
of someone from your past and
someone from your present are
both important, and yet quite different.

* • August has been quite a month for you. Your power is growing and you're
seeing the reolization of a dream. As you move into September the re·
spansibility of your influence on others is what you're most concerned
with.
SAGITTARIUS
Don't pass up a great opportunity to learn something new. There's a teacher/
student relationship in your life that can offer much more than you
might normally expect. Respect diverse viewpoints and opinions.
CAPRICORN
Same long distance information received now could be both a pleasure
and distraction. You're so involved with what you're involved with that
the news, no matter how good, could be somewhat overwhelming. Take it
in stride. Accept the change.
AQUARIUS
A bit of travel at the end of summer could be just what the doctor ordered.
It is amazing what a change of scenery can do. While an around-the-world
cruise would be nice, a long weekend with one you love can do the job
quite nicely.
PISCES
This turning point that you're standing at could involve some serious con·
sideration in regard to providing for th future. while the details would
be too much for some, you find them to ea real pleasure. Enjoy the process.
