A WOMEN'S CENTER IN OKLAHOMA CITY?
Oklahoma City needs a women ' s center and
Herland is active in helping this come about .
We are looking for a space large enough and
within our financial meanso We are investi gating staff options and researching proced ures to gain non-profit status o The advantages of non-profit. status are obvious : a
clarity of financial responsibility, tax
exemptions, accessibility to grants and
foundations monies o To make non-profit work
the commitment on the part of the women ' s
community must be 100% 0 We wish to finance
this project , as much as possible, ourselves,
because then and only then, can we control
the politics surrounding the purpose of our
center . The center is happening . The question
is when .

A VICTORY FOR SILKWOOD
The Karen Silkwood story was finally brought
to a victorious conclusion on January 12,
when the Supreme Court held the Kerr-McGee
Corporation liable for a $10 million punitive
damage award . The Company had been charged
with the plutonium contamination of Silkwood,
a laboratory analyist and union official at
a Kerr-McGee plutonium processing plant in
Crescent, Oklahoma .
Silkwood was killed in an auto crash November
13, 1974, on her way to meet a reporter and
union official with documentation of safety
violations and quality control abuses . The
National Organization for Women, the Oil,
Chemical and Atomic Workers ' Union (the union
Silkwood worked for), and her family pressed
for a federal investigation into her death .
The premature termination of this investiga tion and its limited scope prompted a meeting
between NOW and the Justice Department on
August 26, 1975, demanding a reopening of the
investigation . The Silkwood advocates also
formed the Karen Silkwood Fund under the direction of Sara Nelson, who also served as the
head of NOW ' s Labor Committee . The persistence
of Nelson, Danny Sheehan, NOW member and
attorney in the case, and pressure from NOW
kept the case alive .
In November, 1976, Silkwood ' s parents filed
a lawsuit against Kerr-McGee on behalf of her
three children . In 1979, an Oklahoma federal
jury found the company negligent and awarded
Silkwood's estate $10 . 5 million in actual
and punitive damages . A federal appeals court
set aside the $10 million punitive damage
award in the 1981 decision, but the Supreme
Court reinstated the award by its January
action .
Several women have expressed an interest
in forming a Lesbian Rap Group . We need
members . Call Alice at 364-7522 .
The Widowed Persons Service is · currently
looking for people who have experienced
widowhood, as volunteers . Contact Lorna
Maddux at the Women's Resource Center,
364-9424 .
A new support group has formed for survivors of incest ~ Sisters in Incest Survival
is headed by Janey Reese and meets at the
Women ' s Resource Center in Norman . All
incest victims are invited to attend the
meetings which offer mutual support and
help, along with possible solutions to
victims ' problems . More information can
be obtained by contacting Reese at 392-4991

LESBIANS SUBJECT OF RESEARCH
Lesbians over the age of 60 is the subject
of research by Dr . Monika Kehoe, San Francisco State University . Dr . Kehoe, through
her anonymous survey, hopes to answer some
of these questions: 11 Who are the 11 old 11 women
of the Lesbian community? 11 ; 11 What are the
life experiences, the strengths and the needs
of a group of Lesbians 60 plus? 11 ; 11 What similarities and differences exist in this
seemingly invisible group?
If you qualify or know someone who does

RAPISTS fN PAKISTAN ARE GOING TO HAVE AN
easier time getting around the law if
that country's government has its way .
The Wall Street Journal reports Pakistan
officials are contemplating a change in
evidence laws that would make a woman ' s
testimony worth only half that of a man .
It ' s not as though Pakistan's court system
is all that tough on suspected rapists
even without the rule change . As the law
now stands, if a woman seeks the maximum
penalty of stoning, the accused rapist
must have been seen in the so-called 11 act
of penetration 11 by no less than four witnesses . The four witnesses must all be
adults and all be Moslems o They must also
a11 be men . (Her Say)

THE QUOTE OF THE WEEK COMES FROM AL
Goldstein, publisher of that classily
named magazine, Screw . Talking to another
publication, New Scientist, about predictions that robot spouses will one day be
available, Goldstein said: 11 My fantasy is
to phase the wife out of the picture . 11
Goldstein added that his own wife has
taken that possibility in stride, explaining: 11 She knows she 1 s on the way out, 1 i ke
the buffalo . 11 But then with a husband like
Goldstein, who would complain about being
replaced? (Her Say)

A FORMER NUN WHO WORKED WITH PROSTITUTES
in Haiti has died from Acquired Immune
Deficiency Syndrome . The un-named AIDS
victim, who was Canadian, had worked for
more than 20 years in Haiti . She reportedly
had no history of promiscuity, blood transfusions or drug abuse . Physicians who
treated the woman at Toronto General Hospital, reportedly believe her case strengthens the argument that North American
AIDS cases are somehow linked to Haiti .

pride can be achieved.

The characters range from prostitutes who

A WOMEN'S CENTER IN OKLAHOMA CITY?
Oklahoma City needs a women ' s center and
Herland is active in helping this come about .
We are looking for a space large enough and
within our financial meanso We are investi gating staff options and researching proced ures to gain non-profit status o The advantages of non-profit. status are obvious : a
clarity of financial responsibility, tax
exemptions, accessibility to grants and
foundations monies o To make non-profit work
the commitment on the part of the women ' s
community must be 100% 0 We wish to finance
this project , as much as possible, ourselves,
because then and only then, can we control
the politics surrounding the purpose of our
center . The center is happening . The question
is when .

A VICTORY FOR SILKWOOD
The Karen Silkwood story was finally brought
to a victorious conclusion on January 12,
when the Supreme Court held the Kerr-McGee
Corporation liable for a $10 million punitive
damage award . The Company had been charged
with the plutonium contamination of Silkwood,
a laboratory analyist and union official at
a Kerr-McGee plutonium processing plant in
Crescent, Oklahoma .
Silkwood was killed in an auto crash November
13, 1974, on her way to meet a reporter and
union official with documentation of safety
violations and quality control abuses . The
National Organization for Women, the Oil,
Chemical and Atomic Workers ' Union (the union
Silkwood worked for), and her family pressed
for a federal investigation into her death .
The premature termination of this investiga tion and its limited scope prompted a meeting
between NOW and the Justice Department on
August 26, 1975, demanding a reopening of the
investigation . The Silkwood advocates also
formed the Karen Silkwood Fund under the direction of Sara Nelson, who also served as the
head of NOW ' s Labor Committee . The persistence
of Nelson, Danny Sheehan, NOW member and
attorney in the case, and pressure from NOW
kept the case alive .
In November, 1976, Silkwood ' s parents filed
a lawsuit against Kerr-McGee on behalf of her
three children . In 1979, an Oklahoma federal
jury found the company negligent and awarded
Silkwood's estate $10 . 5 million in actual
and punitive damages . A federal appeals court
set aside the $10 million punitive damage
award in the 1981 decision, but the Supreme
Court reinstated the award by its January
action .
Several women have expressed an interest
in forming a Lesbian Rap Group . We need

LESBIANS SUBJECT OF RESEARCH
Lesbians over the age of 60 is the subject
of research by Dr . Monika Kehoe, San Francisco State University . Dr . Kehoe, through
her anonymous survey, hopes to answer some
of these questions: 11 Who are the 11 old 11 women
of the Lesbian community? 11 ; 11 What are the
life experiences, the strengths and the needs
of a group of Lesbians 60 plus? 11 ; 11 What similarities and differences exist in this
seemingly invisible group?

RAPISTS fN PAKISTAN ARE GOING TO HAVE AN
easier time getting around the law if
that country's government has its way .
The Wall Street Journal reports Pakistan
officials are contemplating a change in
evidence laws that would make a woman ' s
testimony worth only half that of a man .
It ' s not as though Pakistan's court system
is all that tough on suspected rapists
even without the rule change . As the law
now stands, if a woman seeks the maximum
penalty of stoning, the accused rapist
must have been seen in the so-called 11 act
of penetration 11 by no less than four witnesses . The four witnesses must all be
adults and all be Moslems o They must also
a11 be men . (Her Say)

THE QUOTE OF THE WEEK COMES FROM AL
Goldstein, publisher of that classily
named magazine, Screw . Talking to another
publication, New Scientist, about predictions that robot spouses will one day be
available, Goldstein said: 11 My fantasy is
to phase the wife out of the picture . 11
Goldstein added that his own wife has
taken that possibility in stride, explaining: 11 She knows she 1 s on the way out, 1 i ke
the buffalo . 11 But then with a husband like
Goldstein, who would complain about being
replaced? (Her Say)

in Haiti has died from Acquired Immune

victim, who was Canadian, had worked for
more than 20 years in Haiti . She reportedly
had no history of promiscuity, blood transfusions or drug abuse . Physicians who
treated the woman at Toronto General Hospital, reportedly believe her case strengthens the argument that North American
AIDS cases are somehow linked to Haiti .

pride can be achieved.

WOMEN'S MYSTERIES, Part II (Suan B.
Anthony Coven #1), 1980, 223 pp., $8.95 pb.

race, relationships, and sexuality. A
courageous blend of herstory and poetry.
Brown, Rita Mae: RUBYFRUIT JUNGLE

The characters range from prostitutes who
work the train station, to a prominent Black

the characters are lively and full of spunk as
only Brown can create them. A good read .

a closeted existence. How living a lie hurts
everyone who is involved. Many excellent oneliners, but the people are much less likable
than in her previous novels.
