Glad You Asked That By MARILYN and HY GARDNER THERE OUGHTA BE A LAW By Whipple and Borth April 19,1977 THE TIMES son Ask Dr. Brothers We met the late restaurateur Toots Shor once and he was awfully nice. Was he really an Insulting host? Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Platt, Milwaukee.

Only to the people he liked. And they considered It a great show of affection to be "insulted" by the pub's proprietor. An incident shortly before he died is typical of Toots. Warner Brothers publicist Ernie Grossman suddenly sat down too hard on his chair, smashed it and screamed, "Get me an ambulance and a lawyer!" Toot: ambled over to his friend's table, looked over the damage and said to the waiter, "Okay tell this creep we won't put the broken chair on his bill!" Did the late Andy Devine, who played the lovable "Jingles" when I was i up, ever explain how he got that gravel voice? Tommy Griffin, Indianapolis. Yes.

"I answer that question ten tunes a day," he told us. "The only thing Neil Solomon, M.D. VD Epidemic Is a Fact I worried about was if it suddenly cleared up. Then I'd be out of work. Every time I made a movie I'd get letters sending me sore throat cures.

Finally a doctor said the trouble was Just nodes. So I never went to another doctor with it because I knew the real reason. It was my falling on a stick playing with other kids and puncturing the roof of my mouth. It turned out to be the luckiest accident I ever got in!"

JUSTVWATI VKANTEOf C-0 IS SHOHTFOf "cftH'TeKOAOCfKr" Melvin Maddocks Nixon Packaged Dear Dr. Solomon: Is it true that there is now a really bad VD epidemic? I hear all these scare stories, and I don't want to seem neurotic. But I don't want to be a dummy about it either.

Could you fill me in on just what's what? -Norma. W. Dear Norma: There is indeed an epidemic a bad one. The Center of Disease Control estimates that in a single year, 8 to 10 million Americans have gonorrhea, syphilis, or one of the lesser known sexually transmitted diseases: genital herpes, trichomon- iasis, or non-gonococcal urethritis. A very important thing is this: if somebody finds out that he (or she) has a venereal disease, he should not only get a himself but also persuade his partner or partners to be checked and, if necessary, treated.

Doctors and public health authorities are also supposed to do all they can to find out the contacts any new case of syphilis or gonorrhea happens to have and then urge them to get medical care. Some authorities, as a matter of fact, don't just slop at urging. In Salt Lake City, suspected carriers of the new strain of gonorrhea that is resistant to penicillin have faced arrest, quarantine, forced diagnosis, and if needed treatment. This is being done under a law formerly used only against prostitutes. There are certain steps anybody can take to protect themselves.

One contraceptive method, the condom, is quite a good barrier against the transmission of venereal disease. Washing yourself well with soap and water right after having sex may help, but it is not a 100 per cent guarantee. If you find you have an unusual discharge, a suspicious sore or rash, or painful urination or if your partner has any symptom like that be sure to check with your doctor. And have a checkup once a year. This annual examination is terribly important, because VD often has no or few symptoms until its late stages, especially in women.

And by then, a great deal of damage may have been done. Today's For Television Almanac ByUPI Today is Tuesday, April 19, the 109th day of 1977 with 256 to follow. The moon is between Us new phase and i quarter. The morning stars are Mars and Venus. The evening stars are Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn.

Those born on this date are under the sign of Aries. American nuclear scientist Glenn Seaborg was born April 19, 1912. This is actor Hugh O'Brian's 47th birthday. On this day in history: In 1775, the American Revolutionary War began. In 1933, the United States went off the gold standard.

In 1951, American General of the Army Douglas MacArthur, relieved of his a in Korea by President Harry Truman, told Congress: old soldiers never die, they just fadeaway." A thought for the day: American poet James Russell Lowell said, "Who speaks stabs falsehood in the heart." WhaCs the Law? The Money Lover While Morris may not have invented money, he a i how to make it and he earned it as if he were turning it out on an assembly line. As a a 20 years there was nothing he couldn't afford and there was nothing he didn't have except a wife. After watching her husband rake it in for over two decades, i i abandoned his gilded bed and sumptuous board and By JACK STRAUSS, LL.B. sued him for a separation. "It had to a commented one of Morris' associates.

"Morris had more of a passion for money than he had for his wife. He loved money more and neglected her." a i of the comment, Morris sued his associate for defamation of character. "You see!" responded Morris' associate. "What did I tell you? Morris has such a strong desire to Junior Editors'Quiz on- TURKEY VULTURES VULTURE BIRD WITH AW1N6 SPAN Of flfOST 6 ALTHOUGH UStY AND AWKIVARD OH WE GTOUND, TtJEY" GLiDt AND SOAR GRACEFULLY IN THE AIR make money that he's even suing me to get some more. He knows that I didn't defame him." "He sure did," was Morris' answer.

"After all, it certainly doesn't enhance a person's reputation to say of him that he loves money more than he loves his wife. If that doesn't damage a person's image, I don't know what does." I JUDGE, would you make Morris' associate pay him for blackening his image? This is how the judge ruled: YES! The judge held that one of the meanest of all vices is the mere love of money, and when a man is accused of being afflicted by that vice as far as to lose sight of the duty he owes his wife and family, he is at once made contemptible. Consequently, concluded the judge, the statement of Morris' associate was surely defamatory. upon a 1904 New York Supreme Court Decision) The Christian Science Monitor News Service Richard M. Nixon, as everybody cannot fail to know, is back on tape and coming our way all packaged this time as neatly and i a as "Happy Days" or any other show you care to name.

David Frost reportedly paid more than $500,000 for the right to interview the former president, and with that kind of money little gets left to chance. Since July a team of researchers has been digging up enough questions for Frost to fill 12 two-hour taping sessions, i 90-minute telecasts will be culled that begin running May 4. As the half-million dollar tape rolls, among these questions, we hope, will be this question, asked in all seriousness: "How do you feel about tape?" Why didn't Nixon destroy the Watergate tapes? The question has never been answered satisfactorily. a i tape is the most fragile of historical repositories. A cuneiform tablet must be broken and rebroken by a deliberate act of violence.

One must pay for the job in energy and concentration. Paper requires fire, and a good fire. The arsonist must bring flammables and build his pyre right. Even so, one last document may escape during charring. Or a genius will come along who can practically read the ashes.

But to erase a tape is, as Rosemary Woods reminded us, so effortless that one can do it without thinking. It is a negative action. One simply neglects to- lift a forgetful foot, and the job is done efficiently, and forever. What one stamped on clay or wrote down on papyrus, parchment, or paper may be recorded again. What is recorded on tape can be recorded only once.

The coming together of voices on a particular day, with a particular set of problems, in a particular frame of mind about them and the weather outside, and what one had for lunch all this cannot be reconstituted for a future microphone. Why, then, did Nixon not destroy those utterly destructible loops that bound him so vividly to moments of incriminating history? A a man with a proven gift for survival did a i i a i inspiring analysts, profes- QUESTION: What Is a turkey vulture? ANSWER: A turkey vulture (Cathartes Aura) is one of six types of vulture found in the New World. Also called wrongly) a turkey buzzard, it ranges from southern Canada to South America. It is a large bird, about 2'A feet in length with a wing span of about 6 feet. Its plummage is brownish-black with silvery undersides on its wings.

Its naked head, common to all true vultures, is red in adults. On the ground it is ugly and awkward, moving in hops or shuffles, but in the air It glides and soars gracefully. It is always a carrion feeder, and is protected by law in many areas because of its scavenging. There are atxnit 20 species of these diurnal birds of prey widely distributed throughout both the Old and New Worlds. Among other vultures found in the Americas is the Andean condor, the largest living bird capable of flight.

It has a wing span of 10 feet. The California condor, only slightly smaller, Is reduced to a surviving population of only 50 birds. The king vulture, mainly white with black wings, Is found in tropical forests of the Americas. The yellow-headed turkey vulture is found only in South America, and the black vulture, a smaller bird than his cousins, ranges from the southern United States to South America.

1957 Petitions calling for an incorporation election for the proposed city of Paciflca have been filed with the county clerk. 1967 Former chancellor Konrad Adenauer, the architect of postwar Germany, died at the age of 91. THE BETTER HALF, By Barnes sional and otherwise, to talk about "the two Nixons." That may be. But if he is a unique "case history," Nixon is also part- Everyman, in the way that any tragic protagonist in a play represents his audience at his moment of crisis. And so, after Frost is through, perhaps we ought to ask ourselves: "How do we feel about tape?" Obviously there can be a dozen different answers.

But quite a few of those may be more ambiguous than we imagine. What we share with Nixon is a world that seems to self-dissolve as it goes on. There is so much change that we all tend to become as adaptable as politicians. Traditions only make you out of date for the present; a too- firm code of behavior disqualifies you for the future. He travels fast who travels lieht.

In our bodies, in our personalities, we are inclined to be nomads. But the advantage of the space traveler is also his disadvantage. The freedom of a i no points finally becomes his agony. At this point, we chameleon-moderns, dizzying ourselves by the speed with which we move from mode to fashionable mode, from town to town, from job to job, from love to love, clutch our photograph albums to verify our past and therefore our present. We turn to our machines our cameras and, yes, our tape recorders to authenticate ourselves.

Not just to prove that this or that happened, but that i called exists. Look! Listen! I told you. There I am. The pharoahs had their pyramids. We have our home movies, our party tapes.

To destroy these images these prints of ourselves is to destroy part of ourselves in a world that finds us as forgettable as our Social i number. When it comes i down to picking up the hammer to crack the tablet, striking the match to burn the manuscripts, or i ever so slightly the foot on the tape-machine pedal, who can bear to do this Of course there is more to why Nixon failed to destroy the tapes. Yet the homey intuition that he felt as pained, as impotent as a lot of us do when confronted with a trunk of souvenirs in the attic during spring cleaning is one of the few things to be shared during this divisive experience between a president and his countrymen. In the end. i makes Nixon seem more human than his mysterious and disastrous mistake.

At least, it seems that way. He hasn't made any overt passes, nor has he asked me out, so I'm i a think. He is attractive, but he's married and I don't want to get into any tight spot where I'm going to have to put out or be fired. Do you i I ignore his familiarities or should I complain? D.M. Dear D.M.: It's possible he isn't aven aware of his habit.

Try kidding him just enough to make him realize what he does. Some men do this so automatically with women a they i nothing of it. I believe that without making a scene you can let him know you'd rather he didn't touch you Before I go any further, however, I'd like to remind you that there are laws to protect employes aiirf no woman has to "put out or be fired." I realize it's often painful and embarrassing to have to take these matters to a lawyer, but it's important to protect yourself and women in other a the nation. i a mean many things, from almost nothing to an attempt to be warm and friendly or it can be a test to see how far a person can go. Sometimes it's insidious rather than warm.

If a man pats or touches as a symbol of women's inferiority it's a subtle physical threat, a sign of power. Dear Dr. Brothers: My husband and I were discussing insurance with our neighbors, since we both recently bought new cars. We were outraged to learn that this couple got nearly the same bill that we did from our company though the man is a hazard on the road. He's had four accidents and I'm convinced he'll eventually total his car.

I had only one minor traffic violation ana my husband's never had an accident. Not only am I furious with our insurance company, but I don't thfeik this man should be allowed to drive. W.B. Dear You cert a i a insurance corrmenj about this. If you can do it without naming names, you'll save yourself embarrassment and you can still get the information you Most insurance companies are quite rigid about checking into past driving records.

They're also lodk- ing more closely at individual drivers' habits, because it was found that smokers have almost twice as many auto accidents as nonsmokers and some companies are taking this into consideration when issuing insurance. i i a rates soaring, it's quite possible that in the future, companies may ask drivers to take a personality test. Studies have shown, for i a a the bad driver suffers from a lack of identity. Dr. James T.

chief medical investigator for New ico, feels the breakdown of the family creates a person who doesn't care about himself or others. The lack of cohesion in the home can produce persons who are angry, drink too much and may even have an unconscious wish to die. These characteristics in a driver can be lethal.
