"Again I am impressed with the support we have received from all areas of the community," said Swindler. Almost without exception, the people we asked for help have said yes. In fact, several pe sons searched us out, volunteering time and services.

FILMS

The biggest news in gayoriented films this month is the return of "The Times of Harvey Milk," the Academyaward winning documentary about the murdered San Francisco politician. This film sold out when it was shown in April as part of the International Film Festival at the Cedar Lee. It has consistently drawn excellent reviews. If you missed it last spring, or want to see it again, you can do so July 21 and 22, when the Health Issues Task Force presents it as a benefit at Strosacker Auditorium on the CWRU campus. It plays On Sunday, July 21, at 6:30 and 8:30; Monday, July 22, at 8:00. A $5,00 donation is the admission price, and well worth it. And the cause is a good one. For information, call

961-7374.

On July 15-16 the New Mayfield Repertory Cinema presents "Taxi Zum Klo" (1982). The program notes describe it as "rather daring in its frankness" but advise you not to "bring your Aunt Millicent." Those who saw this film when it played the Festival a few years ago describe it as a another grim portrayal of unhappy homosexuals by a gay European director. Don't they realize that being gay can be fun? Where are you, Julie Andrews? The film shows at 7:30 and 9:30 both

evenings.

July 25 and 26 the New Mayfield is showing "The Fourth Man," a 1982 Dutch film that appeared earlier this year. Showtimes are 7:00 and 9:30.
