UNHOLY TERROR
An army doctor has asked our help in gathering instances of homo acts under stress of fear, such as battle or natural crises invloving intolerable suspense. He claims to have at present "several hundred incidents which follow a rather revealing pattern." He specifies contacts where one or both persons are hetero and the hetero initiated the contact. He is not interesed in lurid details or in names.
The doctor's main concern is age, the manner of contact briefly and the relationship of active-passive to personality. The Editors discussed this one for a long time and hope there's a chance ONE might eventually publish the doctor's findings.

THIS IS WHAT I'M REALLY LIKE

His study concerns the possibility of an influence by character disposition of the sexual role of the individual. Does his sex life express his life or deny it?

THE POSTMAN WILL HATE US
Two Ohio doctors are collecting data on the hypothesis that homos have definite physical characteristics. They point out that this is entirely different from manner, gesture, voice, etc. They invite a deluge of letters in asking for the following: sex, weight, height, age, measurement of waist, hips, chest-bust, skin and hair coloring. The name is not necessary. The editors suggest you type the whole thing.
HAVE YOU "NORMAL" VISION?
Los Angeles has a female letter-writer who isn't doing research but would like to know if there has been discovered any physical ailment that could be termed characteristic of the homo. How do our digestions compare with 'normal" ones, are we cancer prone, have we weak eyes, high-blood pressure, etc.?
GENDER AND GENIUS
Florida writes that she is at work on a thesis and very much needs data on comparative 1. Q. ratings of Lesbians as opposed to the average hetero woman.
