''I want to look my best. I'm s£ck and tired of my

more muscles on my biceps and chest and be able to
wear my favorite pair of jeans again.
And there are these few little wrinkles, and lines.
They worry me. I have to do something before they
worry me even more.
I know I look so much better with a beautiful
tan. With that healthy outdoor look, my eyes and
. teeth just sparkle. I am going to keep that tan year
'round.
I also have to do something with my hair and get
a European cut that compliments my features.
I simply want to be proud of myself I also
wouldn 't mind getting a few compliments and more
of those inviting looks.
I must call Euro Tan!

Fire damages
Marshall Square
Apartments
Six apartments were damaged by fire,
including two completely destroyed,
early Oct. 23 at Marshall Square Apartments,
219 Marshall.
Eighteen-year-old Johnny Ray Longworth,
who lived in the complex, was
arrested at the scene, taken to Harris
County Jail and released on $5000 bond.
There were no serious injuries in the
3:00 a.m. blaze, which was tapped out
about twenty minutes later.
The fire occurred on the second story of
the large complex on the Westmoreland
side.
Longworth was arrested after witnesses
pointed him out to fire inspectors.
Other apartment residents said Longworth
set the fire because of a fight with
his roommate.
Investigators said they found clothes
on a bed and a couch that had been set on
fire in Longworth's apartment.
William Bryant, 33, who was passing
by, suffered slight bums to his head as he
ran kicking open doors alerting
residents.
The flames were easily put out but the
fire department designated it a twoalarm
fire because of the threat of spreading
through the large, mostly gay,
complex.
Mary's Lounge, 1022 Westheimer, was
acting as a collection point for household
goods and money donated to the victims.
Sex a cure-all?
NEW YORK (PNS)-The beat way to • tay
healthy is a long, steamy sex session,
says Cornell Medical Professor Howard
Glazer in Forum magazine.
He claims sex reduces stress and even
keeps up your energy. "Unhurried, passionate
sex is better than 100 sit-ups,"
says Glazer.
'Ludes' rival
heroin in
overdose deaths
WASHINGTON (PNS)-The Drug
Enforcement Administration says Quaaludes
now rival heroin as the most frequent
cause of drug overdose deaths and
injuries in the United States.
Quaalude seizures have multiplied 20
times in the past three years, and the
DEA says Qualudes now are second only
to marijuana as the most-used illegal
drug.
Teenagers mixing the drug with alcohol
have produced record numbers of
overdoses, especially in Florida and
Texas, prime entry points for the drugs.
Smoke-filled
rooms
WASHINGTON (PNS)-America's
tobacco industry is trying to tum Hispanic
members of Congress into Marlboro
men. Over the last two years, R.J.
Reynolds and Phillip Morris have
become the biggest supporters of the Congressional
Hispanic Caucus, throwing
receptions for lawmakers and coughing
up 22% of the caucus's yearly budget.
A Reynolds spokesman says it's just
good P.R. Only a third of all Hispanics
smoke, the lowest percentage of any ethnic
group.
But it's good politics, too: the most powerful
Hispanic member of Congreaa i•
Kiki De La Garza of Texas, Chairman of
the House Agriculture Committee, which
just happens to write the tobacco subsidy
laws.

The yard sign
phantom
They mysteriously appeared last weekend,
all over Montrose: Dick Gottlieb
yard signs. Did some ghost sneak
through our neighborhood a week prior
to Halloween to blanket our area? Possibly.
Or was it simply a sudden groundswell
of support bursting forth for the
politically-conservative candidate in our
politically-liberal neighborhood?
Hardly, as all of the signs were on the
city's right of way, not on private
property-in clear violation of city law.
It didn't take long, however, before
concerned Montrose citizens had most
removed. (If you see anymore on the
city's right of way in our fine neighborhood,
you might consider doing your
civic duty by removing them.)
Gottlieb, who three times ran for
mayor and three times lost, is not particularly
admired in Montrose and is only
expected to get about a thimble full of
votes from this area. But he may gather
a good number of votes from areas outside
Montrose which are still in City
Council District C-such as Meyerland.
Those yard signs in Montrose stuck
out like a sore thumb.

"In June of this year, a bill was introduced
in the (U.S.) Senate and House
that will, if passed, dangerously compromise
the freedom of all Americans as
well as widen the gap between parents
and children."
'This one bill covers such diverse and
unrelated subjects as prayer in school,
gay civil rights and teacher
unionization-all restrictive to personal
rights and counched under the deceptive
title, 'The Family Protection Act.' We
must all speak out against this bill and
the threat it presents to the security and
privacy we enjoy."
Who said that? Television actor
Edward Asner, who portrays newspaper
editor Lou Grant.

The Montrose Voice's Mr. 2306 Contest
at Babylon last Tuesday was
jammed with Houston's most handsome
men. The winner was tall and muscular
Will Baker, who works at the Parade.
Second place went to Chet Moore, an
author, working on his second novel.
Danny Villa, bartender at the Drum,
served as MC and pretty much saved the
show with his last-minute organizing.
This contest, and especially the final~.
will long be talked about in Houston.

From Don Hrachovy
Of the Gay Political Caucus
This is it: Tuesday, November 3rd, election
day. Houston's Gay Political Caucus
has done its job and now it is up to the
voters of Houston, especially the gay
voters of Houston.
Polls will be open from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00
p.m. Your precinct number appears on
your voter registration card. Locations of
voting places will be listed in Monday
and Tuesday newspapers. Or you may
call the GPC office at 521-1000 or 521-
9186 for assistance with any voting problem.
Volunteers will staff the office all
election day as well as the day before the
election.
Voting lines are shortest between 9:00
a.m. and 12:00 noon, and between 2:00
and 5:00 p.m. Although you are not
required to bring your voter registration
card with you to vote, itis good practice to
have it with you just in case there are any
problems. If you filed a recent change of
address and have not received a new
card, you must go to your old precinct to
vote.
It is important that you know voting
place officials are instructed not to allow
any notes or literature be taken into votLetters
available at most Montrose bars and
businesses, as well as reprinted in this
issue for you to cut out and retain for
reference.
GPC voter registration booths have
registered almost 5000 voters in the past
two months, Voters in predominately
gay Precinct 123 have increased from
1450 voters to more than 2000; Precinct
33 has increased from less than 1900 to
more than 2700 voters; and 1400 Richmond
now has more registered voters
than other apartment units.
The power is there if all of us will take
the time to vote on Tuesday.
After the polls close on Tuesday, come
to Babylon to watch the election returns
come in at GPC's Election Central.
Babylon's $3 cover charge on Tuesday
night will be donated to the GPC. Party
and dance downstairs, or watch the
returns upstairs.
Please. Vote on Tuesday.

HOLLYWOOD (PNS)-Raiders of the Lost
Ark and Superman II may be big hits at
the box office, but they're outranked by
Stripe~ when it comes to making money,
according to Terry Marshall's Daily
Insider.
Hollywood financial analyst Martin
Grove says Raiders and Superman made
a lot of money, but they also cost a bundle
to produce, while Columbia has been able
to gross 14 million dollars from the relatively
low-budget Bill Murray comedy.
Grove says Columbia will need the
money, too, with a 30-million-dollar
Annie waiting in the wings.

LONDON (PNS)-Space Invader fans in
Britain have figured out how to beat the
game easily, with the aid of an electric
lighter.
F1icked in front of just the right part of
the machine, the lighters drive the video
machines crazy, racking up huge scores
and an endless stream of free games,
reported the Sunday People magazine.
Associated Leisure, Ltd., which distributes
the games, refused comment on the
lighter trick. "Obviously," a spokesman
said, "we are not too keen for youngsters
to learn about it."

eYour vote for Proposition 1 will put our
free enterprise system to work constructively.
Texas cities will be able to encourage
revitalization of run-down areas without federal
aid, without a general tax increase and will keep
new development under local control.
The amendment will allow cities to grant
property tax exemptions to owners in a blighted
area as a development incentive. Cities will be
permitted to issue bonds to finance street, sewer
and other public improvements. Tax revenue
increases from the improved area will be used to
pay for the improvement bonds.
THIS IS WHAT WILL BE ON
YOUR BALLOT, TUESDAY,

Still no gay dancing at
Disney land, court rules
ORANGE COUNTY, Calif. (IGNA)-A
California appellate court has upheld an
Orange County Superior Court ruling
allowing Disneyland to eject two gay
men for dancing together at the park.
After the incident on September 13,
1980, a suit was filed by Andrew Ross
Exler, who charged that Disney officials
had violated his civil rights by escorting
him and his companion from the amusement
park.
Exler told the Associated Press that
the ruling "just shows that America is
not as free as it claims to be."
When IGNA talked to Exler by telephone,
he sounded deflated by the latest
court decision but said he is continuing
efforts to be elected to the Fullerton City
Council.
Recently when he suggested better sex
education in Fullerton schools, he was
called an abomination. "The woman who
said it was a 'Moral Majority-type',"
Exler said.
Asked how he copes with the opposition
of such people, Exler said, "I just
laugh at them."
When asked if he expected to win the
election, the 20-year-old candidate again
laughed. "But I plan to go on," he said.
The original California state ruling
last year was that Disneyland amusement
park had the right to maintain its
"unique family atmosphere" by keeping
people of the same sex from dancing with
each other.
Orange County Superior Court Judge
John Trooter threw out the suit filed by
Exler, then 19, and Shawn Elliot, then 17.
They were hustled off a dance floor and
escorted out of the park when they
refused the requests of security guards to
stop dancing together on a special date
night.
The security guard was quoted as later
saying, "This is Fantasyland not
fairyland." '
The attorney for the youths argued
that they had a constitutional right to
dance together but Disneyland lawyers
said the park had the right to "discourage
that kind of display" and any other
"disruptive" behavior on the premises .
"It's just like our security guards have
the right to tell kids not to sit on a park
bench and neck," attorney William Bitting
said at the time.
Bitting said Disneyland does not try to
keep gay people out of the park and does
not bother them if they walk around holding
hands. But the judge agreed with the
park's contention that it had the right to
"maintain a unqiue family atmosphere
and security for the park patrons."
Exler said at the time of the original
lawsuit, "This was a test case, and the
judge really missed the boat. We are protected
under state laws, and somewhere
we'll get a positive ruling. This one is
ludicrous."
Under the Unruh Civil Rights Act in
California, anyone is entitled to use business
facilities without regard to factors
such as sex. But in this case, the judge
ruled that the behavior of Disneyland
personnel in ejecting Exler and Elliott
from the park was "allowable and reasonable
to protect the interests of other
patrons," the judge was quoted.

So says Bob Mandell. whose San Francisco costume
shop is one of the biggest in the country. Indian breech
cloths. Playboy bunny suits and see-through costumes
are the hot items this year. he reports. and the briefer the
better.
It's all a reaction to the times. Mandell says: "People
just want to get out and do something weird."

The
eunuchs
of
China
PEKING (IGNA)-Only
two or possibly three
eunuchs of the Ging
dynasty of imperial China
remain alive. tending
flowers and goldfish in an
elegant courtyard where
they have lived as wards
of the· state for the past 30
years.
Sun Yaoting and Ma
Dequing. both 80, were
interviewed by the
Associated Press and
described their lives under
the system that permitted
poor peasants to offer
their boy children for
castration to be able to
make money through court
favors.
Sun and Ma have been
friends for 50 years.
bound by their peasant
roots. the castration they
endured to help their
families. and their status
for years as freaks and
outcasts.
To have become a
eunuch in the last days of
the Ging dynasty was an
even greater hardship than
expected. Sun recalls that
when the imperial family
was expelled from the
palace in 1924, no one
would hire eunuchs. Many
became peddlars or
beggers.
"We were humilitated
in the outside world." he
says. "We never knew
which toilet to
use-men,s or women,s . ',
Sun explained how he
~
OCTOBER 30, 1981 / MONTROSE VOICE 17
became a eunuch. "I
volunteered to help my
family." he said. But so
many poor peasants
wanted their sons to be
eunuchs. however. the
waiting list for imperial
castration was long. It
took six years until. at 16.
Sun was accepted.
He entered the
Forbidden City and
"immediately on that day
I became a eunuch." From
1916 to 1924 he worked as
a favorite of the teenaged
Empress Wan Rong.
Every day a bell would
ring and all_ males would
leave the Forbidden City.
except for the imperial
family and the eunuchs.
Eunuchs performed all
manner of work: they tied
the emperor's shoes. told
him stories. transmitted
edicts. burned incense,
scrubbed the floors.
guarded treasures. fed the
animals and recited
classics.
Sometime after the fall
of the Ging dynasty. 30
or 40 of the eunuchs
pooled their money and
bought land in the western
district of Peking. where
they built the Xing Long
monastery, with a Taoist
cast. They grew
vegetables. collected a
little rent on their land.
and lived in seclusion.
When the People's
Republic took over in
1949. the remaining
eunuchs were taken under
the wing of the
government. Eunuchs were
organized into political
study classes and read
Marx and Mao.
''We were told we
were the most oppressed
in the old society." Sun
Yaoting says. "We were
to be given jobs.
protected. and respected."

The truth is
hard to stomach
NEW YORK (PNS)-According to Playgirl
magazine, the British male is a flabby
flop when it comes to posing in the nude.
The publishers of the male pinup magazine
say the average British male
spends too much time drinking beer and
not enough time exercising.
"It was really disappointing," said picture
editor Alison Morley, after a trip to
London to check out the British scene:
"The only ones suitable were under 28.
The older men all had beer guts."

CHARLO'ITESVILLE, Va. (PNS)-You
can add one more enterprise to the growing
list of franchise businesses: franchised
religion. Jerry Falwell's goal is
5000 new churches, and Pat Robertson of
the 700 Club already has "counseling
centers" in 83 cities.
The reason is money: Jeffrey Hadden,
author of The Prime Time Preachers,
says TV ministers are plagued with
"revolving door congregations" and
need local outlets for a more secure financial
base.

A Personal Message
from Anne Wheeler
Many of you know me as someone who has fought long and hard for civil liberties and civil
rights, as someone who has strived to protect the poor, minorities, and the inner city from
powerful vested interests. In return, many of you have supported me for both public and party
office.
My support of the tax limitation charter change is a continuation of this long battle,
because the poor, minorities, and the inner city are the ones who will suffer most from the
citywide revaluation to be completed in just two months. Many area homeowners could be
forced to sell their homes; renters will face huge rent increases as landlords pass on
mammouth tax hikes to tenants.
The charter amendment, last item in the last column on the ballot, will prevent such
widespread suffering. And, because of revaluation, the city will still generate enough revenue
to fund fully all city services, to repay the bonds and protect our AAA bond rating, and to
satisfy the State Constitution. A limit on annual increases in a person's property taxes
protects inner city residents for the future.
Please vote YES on this charter amendment. The vested interests want to see the inner city
cleared out for their high-rent highrises. I want to see it preserved for the people who live here.

After the visitor leaves, the door locks
itself while the seat is disinfected and an

Carly Simon with the old songs
By Jeffrey Wilson
• Torch is a thrilling album! Carly
Simon (Warner Brothers) in her own
inimitable style brings back to life the
jazz/blues sound that was at a height of
popularity during the late 30s through
the early 50s. People who will remember
and the newcommers hearing this for the
very first time will grow to appreciate the
warmth and artistry in Simon's second
LP since shifting over from the Elektra/
Asylum branch.
The orchestration is purposefully kept
light so to hear Simon pour out her heart
for the listener. Of the 11 songs recorded
on this album only two were recently
written as the others date back only so
close in time as 1968. "Blue Of Blue" sets
the sultry, years-gone-by mood. If there is
such an emotion as delightfully down or
enjoyable deressed just listen to the sigh
of heartfelt delivery in "I Got It Bad And
That Ain't Good" (written in 1941 by
Duke Ellington and Paul Webster),
"Body And Soul" (from 1931) and Hoagy
Carmichael's 1938 "I Get Along Without
You Very Well." Right up there with the
other tearjerkers is Jimmie Crane and Al
Jacobs' 1953 composition, "Hurt."
The versatility now displayed by C.S.
in her newest venture is to be highly commended.
She could have played it safe
staying within her sucessful boundaries
of rock and pop. When you listen to this
collection you will be glad she tried this
avenue. Nearly ten years have passed
since Carly was awarded a Grammy for
Best New Artist and since that time she
has achieved more than half a dozen
additional nominations and gold singles
and albums. •
The packaging is fantastic with a spe-

Carly Simon
cial mention for the photography of
Lynn Goldsmith, Inc. with album
design/ art direction by Bill Gerber and
Simon Levy, respectively.
As Carly Simon so aptly expressed it,
"The best definition of torch music I can
think of is the songs of anyone-man or
woman-who is carrying a torch; it's
music of lost love. It's that feeling I
wanted to get across on this album." She
certainly has done exactly that and I
really recommend this for the rainy season
ahead.
• Meg Christian (Olivia) is the cofounder
of her record company, which
has been in OJ)£ration since 1973. Turning
It Over is her third album for the
label. The unique quality is this-the
company is entirely feminine. By this I
don't mean effeminent, I mean female!
All Women!
This album was produced, composed,
arranged, conducted, etc. . .. by women
only. They are net sexist, they are giving
women the opportunity to work in positions
and control businesses that are predominatly
run by men.
Of the ten songs, Christian has writtine
eight and two of these she performs
as instrumentals. She proves to be quite
the accomplished guitarist on "Window
Paynes" and again on "Moving Right
Along." "For Mama" is short and sweet,
the album's closing number, and this
Meg sings acapella. This is rather mellow
music, soothing and with a meaning.
The sound is very soft rock, mostly folk
with which she identifies closely being a
follower of Joan Baez, Buffy Saint-Marie
and the Kingston Trio.
Olivia Records is a relatively small
record company and if you should have
trouble finding this album you may write
directly to the company for information
at 440 Market St., Oakland, CA 94608, or
call (415) 655-0364. Christian will be performing
in a 30-city national tour
through the end of the year, providing a
presence that directly counters images
that the so-called New Right portrays.
• Barry White's Greatest HitsVolume
Two .is not an album to be judged
by its title. Barry White (20th CenturyFox)
will always stand out from the
crowd for the music he gave us in the
early and mid 70s, but this compilation of
B-sides and the ones that didn't make it
hasn't earned the word "greatest." For
those of you who have a few of White's
albums you should remember "It's
THURSDAYS
Hot Wax
Ecstacy When You Lay Down Next To
Me." This was a mild hit. The others
really are not worth mentioning. Volume
One of his Greatest Hits was exactly that
when he dominated the charts with such
super hits as "You're The First, The Last,
My Everything" and "Love's Theme"
(remember Love Unlimited?). If you purchase
this second volume and can't handle
it, don't say I didn ·t warn you.
• 20th Century-Fox must be having a
rough time with Volume Two products as
Ear Candy, Volume II is a package of
very mild (for the most part) hits. Several
names of their artists such as Stephanie
Mills ("Sweet Sesation") and the Staple
Singers ("Love Came Knocking") might
tempt you to buy the record. Other than
the fact that the songs aren't so hot; the
package design is really tacky and ?Oring.
I was mildly shocked to read Design:
Gribbitt! as this firm is known for some
very hot artwork when it comes to album
covers.
• The De Barges (Gordy/Motown)
are the newest family act to converge on
the Motown scene. Comprised of four singers
who are accomplished musicians
and writers (they have co-written several
of the songs for this new LP), Bunny, El,
Mark, and Randy are relatively young
in age (from 19 to 25). The better tracks
are "You're So Gentle, So Kind" featuring
the sweet voice of Bunny DeBarge;
"Hesitated" has a slight rap with good
accents; and "Share My World" shows
off the groups pleasant harmonies in a
soft love song.
Aiding in the production of this album
is brother Bobby DeBarge of the successful
Motown act, Switch.

S.F.
Hall owe' en in
San Francisco
By Randy Alfred
Is that redundant? Maybe.
After all, the Grand
National Rodeo is in town,
and the U.S. Navy's fleet is
in for the City's first "Fleet
Week" in several decades.
With real cowboys and sailors
around, why bother
with costumes?
On the other hand, is
Mardi Gras redundant in
New Orleans, Carnival in
Rio, or Fasching in
Munich? Of course not.
Besides, Herb Caen, San
Fran cisco's pre-eminent
daily columnist, warned in
early October, "Don't let
the gays steal Hallowe'en!"
Steal it? We didn's
steal it. We just rescued it
from the kids and the confectioners.
If non-gay
adults want to share the
treasure, welcome! The
more the merrier.
Among the offerings th is
,year: week-end-long parties
at many bars, an anniversary
party-"The
Fruits of Our Labors" - for
the Gay Men's Chorus, the
Spiral Dance Ritual sponsored
by Reclaiming: A
Center for Feminist Spirituality
and Counseling, the
Coven of the Laughing
Goddess's Feast of the
Dead featuring ritualist Z
Budapest, the Bay Area
Faeries' High Holy Day
and Beach Party, the S.M.
Church Ritual and Masquerade
Ball, the Exotic
Erotic Hallowe'en Ball,
Dorothy/ Oz parties at the
Studio West disco and Oakland's
Bench & Bar, Hollywood
parties at the DeLuxe
and the Hotel York's Plush
Room, "Black Forest" at
The Woods up on the Russian
River in Guerneville,
and of course, the three biggies:
Trocadero Transfer's
annual "Black Party,"
Conceptual Entertainment's
"Tribal Fantasies"
at the Galleria Design Center,
and the San Francisco
Tavern Guild Foundation's
Beaux Arts Ball, this
year's theme: "Most Outrageous,"
at historic California
Hall, where a police
raid of a 1965 New Year's
costume ball mobilized the
city's gay and lesbian communities
four years befxore
Stonewall.
Redundant? Never.

SamanthaReads Your Stars
ARIES: Be flexible this weekend. Try the untried. This holiday
is full of spontaneous, spur-of-the-moment happenings. Domestic
matters, romantic affairs, and your current project are all
buzzing.
TAURUS: Make the most of your talents this national gay
holiday. Splurge, splurge and splurge. Experiment with new
personality traits. Put on a mask and be someone else. Halloween
night ends with a blast.
GEMINI: Think absolute madness. Expect to hear from many
old friends during the hectic weekend. But contemplating
hatching new plans for the coming winter.
MOONCHILD: Someone new in the city this weekend wants to
meet you. At the big party, prop yourself on a comer, and look
available-for the tall and macho dressed in dark colors. Brief
romance may be headlined, with your sister truning in an
Oscar-winning performance as both producer and director.
LIO: Group activities and friendships will be highlighted Halloween
weekend. Parties, parties, parties, and you'll partake. A
large surprise in a black cape awaits.
VIRGO: Personal affairs and those well-laid Halloween
plans-that you put off to the last minute-all climax this weekend.
It'll be all indoors as outside activities will be kept to a
minimum. Don your best and accept all invitations.
LIBRA: This weekend, you'll enjoy virtually everyone-and
they'll enjoy you. Have no fear-the crowds abound with
strangers. Grab one, or two, or twenty. Your late night desires
will be fulfilled.
SCORPIO: You thrive on activity and you'll get plenty ofit this
weekend. If you desire to hop from party to party-do it! Sample
the goodies around you everywhere. Make a spectacle of
yourself!
SAGITTARIUS: Financial rewards are just that. You've earned
'em. And you may just spend all your fortune this weekend, so
watch it, you devil. The ghouls, goblins and a naked Indians
will cross your path. Grab the ones you like. Be bold.
CAPlllCORN: You and your cohorts and all your combined
talents will take control of the weekend. Smashing new ideas
have already popped out from the wings and their success
depends on the cast of characters you bring to it. Nights close
with a kiss.
AQUARIUS: There are news and messages from ghosts and
hunks this weekend including, perhaps, one that's especially
heart-throbb~. Later. COlllP!PlY's comi,wz:=.but it's just the====~,
neighbor. Monday will be right up your alley.
PISCES: This may be a weekend of compromises. Very few
things are either totally true black or solidly stark white. The
shades of gray are infinite. Your reputation will be, shall we say,
changed, after the Halloween celebrations.
Trend by Henry McClurg
We're one year old
We're a year old folks. Exactly.
And, it's fitting to note, this issue-a special
Halloween and election issue-is the largest
we've ever published.
It's my desire to give Montrose a nice, fat,
healthy community newspaper. Recent issues
compared to issues in our first few months show
we've doubled in size, doubled in circulation, and
tripled in advertising revenue. That's because you
(16,000 yous) are reading us each week.
Here are some facts maybe you didn't know.
There are over 300 gay publications in the country
today and the Voice is one of only six which are
both weekly and in newspaper format-the toughest
format.
The Voice is respected by other gay publications
around the country and frequently quoted.
With the addition of our new graphics director,
the Voice is also one of the most visually pleasing
gay publications in the country.
This all reflects very well on Houston. When
gay people from other cities see the Voice, they see
Houston. We're your newspaper and I hope you're
proud ofus.

THE MAN WHO TELLS IT LIKE IT ISi
As a private citizen, Noble
Ginther has already accomplished
what a strong and independent
mayor should have done:
• In October 1980, Noble Ginther
presented a comprehensive police
plan to the mayor and city council
outlining proposals to take 600
trained- police officers out of desk
jobs and put them on the street,
using "the cop on the beat" foot
patrol concept ....
• In June 1981, Noble Ginther
began his campaign within the
gay community by riding in the
Gay Pride Parade and campaigning
at many gay events and bars.
. . . He is the only candidate for
mayor to do so ....
• In August 1981, Noble Ginther
became known as "the man who
fought City Hall-and won" by
winning his lawsuit against the
tax department and the special
interests that control this city ...
which will lower your taxes ....
• In October 1981, Noble Ginther
became the only major candidate
for mayor to endorse Anne Wheeler's
Tax Protest Group proposal
on the ballot.
