I have been very pleased with Council Member Ryan's willingness to go the extra mile for our community. Vince and I flew to Oklahoma City to check on Dr. John Arradondos position on AIDSbefore his appointment to Health Director and based on that trip raised some serious concerns about his appointment. Vince endured considerable public criti- cism for supporting the placement of housing for 32 indigent people with AIDSin his District but stood fast and supported us.

TWT NOVEMBER 1 - NOVEMBER 7 1991 PAGE 3 BEST GAY CLUB MOST IMPROVED CLUB Reader's Choice VILLAGE STATION year ago, Village Station was a fabulous dance club, although A not without its drawbacks. The exposed-wood decor was perhaps a bit too reminiscent of Fire Island in the '70s, there was not enough room for the frequent drag shows, the back patio lacked zing, and the dance floor became too crowded too fast. But all that has changed. Even though it meant knocking out what was once Hartford's (at one time the best place for men to see go-go boys do their thing), the Village now boasts a sleek new look, tons of outdoor and dancing space, a cabaret room that hosts local theater in addition to drag, and enough bars that there's very little wait for a cocktail, even on weekends. Thankfully, the clientele remains eclectic and friendly, and the Village Station itself feels open and spacious enough not to be forbidding. It's still the best place in Oak Lawn to work up a sweat with your clothes on.
