tantly swiped most of his infor about homo organizations from a book ONE published years ago called HOMOSEXUALS TODAY in an attempt to publicize the homosexual movement!
And it sure is ironic that Masters can make money screaming about us "secret" homosexuals by carrying an ad in one of the very same publications that has flatly refused our money for an ad for ONE's book service-in an attempt to help lift the silly "secret & sinister" label on homosexuals.
And revolution? Ha! The only revolution homosexuals want is relief from persecution that comes from ignorance, superstition, and boogeymen that make money off us by screaming we're what we ain't!
WE WANT CLIPPINGS!
TANGENTS is womped up from clippings our friends send us. We can't afford yet to subscribe to a regular clippings service (and besides, we're not sure a regular clippings service would recognize half the gay items)! So when you see something, send it on. Don't assume we've already seen everything. Sometimes only one paper dares print a story (like that storybehind-the-story of that GriffithParet fight a friend back east sent us)! And the clippings go into ONE's permanent archive, which will be, and probably is already, the largest and most complete homophile clipping archive in the world.
OF MANY THINGS, OF CABBAGES & QUEENS:
According to LOOK, part of the events leading up to the Billie Sol Estes scandal was "a young physician" of Pecos, Texas, who was charged with sodomy with boys and died from an overdose of

Officials in Hempstead, England, added a fig leaf to their bronze nude Greek discus thrower and announced it was "to avoid any suggestion that we were offending public dignity" The
British film, A TASTE OF HONEY, which has a shy young male homosexual role, is getting rave reviews, and they say it's even better than the play. U.S. Immigration tried to deport Swiss-born Fleuti on the grounds his homosexuality evinced "psychopatic personality," but Fleuti took it up to U.S. Court of Appeals which declared the order of deportation void . . . A new Italian film, ARTHUR'S ISLAND, of a 15year-old boy who discovers his father is homosexual, is winning prizes... Charles Feinberg, Detroit oil magnate, added to his famous Whitman collection (he owns half of all Whitman letters, the other half being in universities) by paying $10,000.00 for 41 letters and 21 postcards found in La Habra, Calif. . . . The witchhunt is still on in Florida. We wonder what REAL scandal the public's attention is trying to be diverted away from. But at least some of the victims are wiseing up. Three teachers (one male and two female) were dismissed from Pinellas teaching jobs for homosexual activities, but they hired an attorney and are taking it up on appeal. We hope they've got the money to go on up if necessary . . . L.A.'s music critic Goldberg remarked that, as always, the fullest house at Hollywood Bowl's season was the yearly All-Tchaikovsky program... Arkansas authorities admit they're in a quandary on what to do about "David Reginald Van Rippy" who they arrested for
