TO THE EDITOR DO SOMETHING^
ABOUT DISCRIMINATION.
Dear Editor:
We would appreciate it
if you print the following
letter in your great news
paper as our funds are
dwindling and could use
replenishing. Thank you.
LETTER:
Have you ever spent an
evening at home, alone,
flipping through the Yellow
Pages of your telephone
book? If you have you
probably were startled to
find in column four oh
page 109 just below Gate
City Elks Lodge No. 54
and just above the Geor
gia Alcohol Readers As
sociation the Gay Infor
mation Service. Can you
believe that? Well, look
us up sometime, we just
might have the right infor
mation for you, but HUR
RY! We know where all
the bars are and when a
new one opens we will be
the first to know. Unfor
tunately we might not be
able to tell you what's hap
pening in Atlanta much lon
ger. Why? We are running
out *of financial energy.
President Nixon has im
pounded our funds so we
must turn to you for help.
Only you can save us from
the clutches of some vi
cious telephone represen
tative ripping out our
phones, or an impersonal
postman refusing to ac
cept our unstamped let
ters, and our printer burs
ting down our door de
manding money. You can
save us! Quickly find
your check book, now, look
for a pen, no a pencil
won’t do. Take the pen
in hand, open your check
book, enter todays date
in the appropriate space.
Make the check payable to
G. I. S., or Gay Informa
tion Service. Now in the
space following the dollar
sign enter the digit one
(1), now and add as many
zeros as you can spare
(remember zeros are place
holders for nothing). Af-'
Because of the tremen
dous response we had from
last month’s article, “Atl
antis Motorcycle Club’’
from our readers request
ing information about the
club, we have asked the
President to answer a few
questions for us.
Question: What does S&M
stand for?
Answer: Depending upon
the degree of involvement
ter entering the appro
priate number of zeros,
place a decimal point in,
I mean toward the rear of
the last zero and add two
more zeros and you will
have just saved the Gay
Information Service.
Much Love,

in the scene and in some
cases the section of the
country in which one lives,
S can mean either slave
or sadist, while M stands
for either master or maso
chist.
Question: Are all the peo
ple who go to a leather,
western or levi bar in
volved in S&M?
Answer: Absolutely not!
Many simply, enjoy the
more masculine atmos
phere, while others are
turned on by the dress of
the patrons. Only a smell
percentage of those dres
sed in leather or levis
are involved in a heavy
S&M scene.
Question: How can I tell
if some one is involved
in S&M?
Answer: Generally the way
a person is dressed gives
some indication, but the
best way is simply to talk
to the individual. Most of
ithe time you’ll get an ho
nest answer.
Question: Some said that
keys worn on the left side
indicate the person is a
master?
Answer: This is general
ly true but never jump to
conclusions. If interested
ask.
Question: Do all guys in
the leather scene ride mo
torcycles?
Answer: No. Only a small
percentage (perhaps 25%)
of the people in the leath
er and S&M scene ride
motorcycles. However,
most are turned on by mo
torcycles which are, to a
degree, a sex symbol.
If you have a question
about the S&M scene, mo
torcycling or leather and
levi people, write: The

Sanchez
The “Big Mama’’ of Soul,
Deva Sanchez is simply
“Fabulous”. You name it,
she’ll do it, anywhere from
a hearty belly dance to
topping off her act with a
series of cartwheels across
the huge stage ofTheNum
ber One Showplace of The
South, Sweet Gum Head
where she is currently per
forming.
Deva is a well liked Pis
ces, and comes to Atlanta
from (of all places) Cin
cinnati, Ohio. With six
years experience as a pro
fessional Female Imper
sonator, Deva has perform
ed at such well known places
as C&P Townhill Club in
L. A. The Savoy in Ohio,
Playboy Bar in Ohio, Bob
and Grandpas in Ohio, Tul-
sas in Ft. Wayne, Indiana
and The Famous Door ip
Indianapolis.
She was the Second Run
ner up in the Miss Crown
Jewel of California Con
test and has attended L.A.
City College, majoring in
Business Administration
(was it monkey business,
Deva?) She enjoys bow
ling, tennis, and occas
sional horse back riding.
When asked her greatest
ambition, Deva replied “to
be a professional belly
dance instructor”. After-
seeing some of Devas
“bumps and grinds” in her
act, we’d venture to say
that she would in all pro
bability make a good one.
Next shortage:
public patience.
