QUESTION & ANSWERS Dear Erica: Can you tell me the chara cteristics of a Virgo man? I am sort of engaged to a Virgo and at times he talks like an adding machine or a computer? What gives? Wondering in Phoenix, Arizona. You’re right. . .most Vir go men think like a comput er. He’s an intellectual type, a fact-finder, a method-man with a mind for detail. He is usually hard working and ambitious, but sometimes he has an offday and you can’t get a bit of work out of him.. but take it in your stride... hell make up for it when he gets back on the track. A sense of humor is not his strong point, so don’t tease him. The right wife for him must not be emotionally de manding or resent being organized. He has a place for everything and everything must be in its place. The Stonewall Discothe que, named after the Stone wall bar in New, York, was completely destroyed by fire in the early morning hours of March 1. Larry Boxx, manager, said the fire apparently started a- round 6:15 A.M. and ap peared to be set. Boxx est imated damages at $500.- 000. The two-story building was a total loss. Next-door the famed place, Pigalle, was also damaged and had to temporarily close for re pairs. Four firemen suffered serious injuries fighting the blaze, which took several hours to get under control and could be seen for mil es. Originally one of the area’s most popular drag bars, drawing thousands of customers on the week-ends at $5.00 per person, the bar had undergone many raids by the Miami Beach police and is presently in Florida courts with a har assment suit against the M.B.P.D. It had become more “straight” over the past few months, but ap peared to be heading to wards a mixed clientele. It had served as a meet ing spot for the short lived Gay Liberation Front Mia mi Beach in 1973 and had worked somewhat with gay activists during the 1972 Presidential conventions. The bar had been known for being aggressively gay. Thus, many gays were sho cked when it became more of a straight bar. Several months ago, fire broke out when it was unoccupied but only minor damages re sulted. Residents in the area were evacuated from hotels and apartments by police. Boxx said he plans to open another club under the same name soon. Elkins Celebrates Fourtieth Birthday In Macon Life begins at fourty? Charles Elkins, owner of the We Three Lounge in Macon, Ga., certainly pro ved this when he celebrat ed his fourtieth birthday Friday February 22, (George Washington’s Bir thday) with a gala affair at his lounge. Entertain ment was provided by the incomparable Buddy Clark, of Clark Productions and featured Atlanta’s own r the fabulous Mr. Peral Bailee and Samantha among others. The evening was filled with excitement and from 8 until 9 o’clock the customers and friends en joyed one whole hour of free drinking and merry making. I’m sure that the talent was superb and the Ma- conites were in for a real treat. The lounge features Go-Go boys and is the place to go when in Macon. Good Luck Charles. At lanta Barb wishes you the best and many more. I0W TO PLACE YOUR AD FOR CLASSIFIED READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FILL OUT THE FORM SORRY, NO ADS CAN BE TAKEN OVER THE PHONE.
