What a sad sight it is to observe the disintegration of what is left of The Pride Foundation. As a result of clever internal cormivance a totally politically correct board of directors is now in control and yet somehow it is falling apart at the seams. The Gay Legal Referral which was always self-supporting, is now no long er staffed by the very capable and devoted Ms. Terry M c^odes as a paid position, but is now somewhat staffed by volunteer help. Both the piano and library have been sold off to keep the electricity and water on. The employment service is nowhere hear as dependable or productive as it vvas under Mariette Gordon. In spite of the advices of volunteer lawyers to persue the suit against the bond issue to tear down the gay community center for a parking lot for Dianne Feinstein’s friends, the politically correct administration hastened to abandon the suit and give up the building without so much as a whimper or any alternative place to go.

Smith gave THE VOICE an exclusive interview in his office at the Hall Of Justice. His response was affirmative and reassuring. As we entered the office. Smith was looking over a number of new Ordinances “What about the so-called porno shows?” , he was asked, “ there are a number passed by the Board of Supervisors .

Smith went on to say he knew of one situation in San Mateo County where a mirror was installed to facilitate extortion, but that the question of legality is not clear unless the mirror is used for some unlawful purpose. “It would be a question of intrusion, but illegality is a matter of circumstances”, he concluded. “What about the rights of street kids, not angels, but not bad kids either. They become the object of police harrassment to get them off the streets. In their efforts to curb the problems created by street Idds, the police may arrest a kid on Friday night, to teach him or her a lesson, lock them up in the juvenile hall and then let them out on Monday.
