Troy Perry is not an average minister. And his congregation Is not too typical either. Perry and his flock are professed homosex- uals. The subject of Perry ' s March 2 speech was the gay community. It was sponsored by UFM, Union New s and Views, and the Manhat- tan Gay Consciousness Group as part of the Alternatives Conference. Perry Is minister of the Metropolitan Community Church in Los Angeles. The gay community is Ilke any other minority group, Perry ex- plained. Homosexuals have no ' H ' stamped on their foreheads; homosexual men don ' t all wear dresses, Perry said. Perry lamented the preconceiv- ed notions most people have about homosexuals. These are evident In archaic laws that per- mit punishment for homosexual behavior. Jesus never said, ' Come to me all you heterosexuals ' , Perry stated. He said, ' Come unto me all you who are heavy laden and I will give you rest ' . A new populist movement and a return of political power to the people were the ideals expounded by Sen. Fred Harris in an All-University Convoca- tion March 16. Harris, Oklahoma Democrat. was first to announce his bid for the Democratic Presidential nomination. Harris called for a redistribu- tion of the country ' s wealth from the corporate intersts back to the common man. Most people don ' t feel that the political process will deliver on their legitimate complaints, Harris said. Consequently, there exists In America today a kind of hopelessness. Harris said he feels such matters as health care and the right to good housing should be basic to all people. 1--NS sAS STATE ' UNIVERSITY CONVOCATIONS •Spr 115) ' polik r

Spring speakers discuss politics, gay life Man does not live by in - come alone; he must have a sense of purpose, Sen. Frank Church said April 18. Church, Idaho Democrat, ad- dressed an All-University Con- vocation on subjects including the elderly, welfare, the Social Security system and stepped- up bombing in the war in In- dochina. After proposing a change In the welfare system in which the elderly would be removed from welfare rolls, Church added: A person ' s lifetime should not be limited to one career. Church touched on the Viet- nam War, saying, the United States needs a President who will tell the American people this country has done everything it can for Vietnam. Our failures in the past need not be repeated in the future. Maybe we are commencing to take the blinders off, he said. Today ' s markets are so con- fusing that consumers are much like Alice In Wonderland, Betty Furness, former Presi- dent Lyndon Johnson ' s assis- tant on consumer affairs, said. Ms. Furness spoke May 3 at an All-University Convocation as part of the First National Conference on Student Con- sumer Action. The consumers are at a definite disadvantage In the consumer game; they generally feel the manufacturers are looking out for them — which isn ' t necessarily true, she said. The consumers should complain and become more suspicious of large cor- porations. They should not only be aware of price, but also of harm to the environment, Ms. Furness said. Consumers can be Influential in getting existing laws chang- ed if they will write directly to the people involved. Sprirg SplaK0•3-27
