(Staff Photos J.C.Lee) On Mayor's Ouster May 19 Sexual harassment has puzzled and amused me ever since that day in my eighth-grade civics class when a prematurely endowed young lady named Nell Kellogg walked in wearing a tight sweater and wolf whistles filled the room. Nell calmly turned, flashed us a smile full of pearly white teeth and aaid: "Baa off, creeps." That was a clear-cut case of double sexual harassment which, I contend, is what most sexual harassment is all about' Let me give, yod another example. Yon suggest to your wife she looks like death warmed over in curlers.

She busts you in the mouth. Both of you have been sexually harassed. My contention is men are more sexually harassed than women but are too dumb to realiM it There are numerous examples. Men have to take out the garbage. That stinks and is sexual harassment at its smelly worst Women always claim they have headaches when it is obvious they don't That's more one-sided sexual harassment of the male of the specie! Ever heard of a man with a headache? A man and a woman go to the beach, and guess into whose face the bully kicks the sand? Yep and she never gets a black eye defending his honor.

Males' traditionally have been harassed by women and labeled breadwinners. A label like that can earn you a heart. attack at 38 trying to pay the bills, and if that isn't sexual harassment, I don't know what is. There is seemingly no end to the sexual harassment of males. For instance, when a woman has a flat tire on the expressway, all she has to do is step outside her car and stand.

Within minutes, some male will stop and politely change the tire. Let a male with a flat tire try that My hope is he has rations for a long stay. A female wouldn't stop to change Robert Bedford's tire. Sexual harassment continues to haunt males, even amid new fads. The other night I spotted a male help a fe-.

inaJe climb onto a mechanical bulL She rode it It threw him. She laughed and left with another guy. The classic case of sexual harassment occurs when a poor guy takes a gal out on the town. After a two-hour ulcer-inducing period of courage-building, he phones and asks her for a date. Having nothing better to do, she accepts.

He picks her up and she is wearing a low-cut blouse, split skirt, spiked heels, perfume called "Seductive," and promptly says "Let's party, buster." He spends S12S on her at dinner and at a disco. "I love to slow dance," she coos, "almost as much as I like frozen strawberry daiquiris." Finally, at am, be returns her to her front door with nothing left in bis wallet but a driver's license and a battered credit card. He leans over to give her a goodnight peck on the cheek. "You pervert!" she screams, slamming the door in his face. "While there is still a great deal of tension about the.

incident, the warden has tried to defuse the situation by making it clear to the inmates that he and the department are extremely concerned about what happened." U. S. District Judge Anthony Alaimo ordered state officials to make improvements at the Reidsville prison after, a series of disturbances there in 1978.

Federal guidelines allow Atlanta to draw on the HUD account every month to pay extraordinary expenses of the probe, currently about 8170,000 per month. Meanwhile, sources said the city and Economic Opportunity Atlanta were ironing out guidelines for a foundation that EOA is forming to handle private donations related to the slayings. Those guidelines reportedly might allow donations to be spent on summer recreation programs in Atlanta which would be welcome news for city recreation officials, who said Friday that their financial plight is "critical."

Dawson said the cause of death remains undetermined pending further investigation. 1 "I never really said he drowned. I said there was evidence suggesting he might have," Dawson said. "We'll probably wind up with no good, strong ruling on it; we don't have strong evidence either way." Meanwhile Friday, extradition papers were on their way to Gov. George Bus-bee's office in the case of 34-year-oll Larry Marshall, who was arrested to Hartford, last week as a fugitive from an Atlanta attempted-robbery charge and is wanted for questioning by the Atlanta Police Bureau's special task force.

Officials of Wackenhut Corp. confirmed Friday that Marshall was em Eloyed by the private security company i Atlanta for about six weeks at the end of 1980 and that he was terminated for being intoxicated on the job. They said he had to wear a security uniform on the job but declined to say where in Atlanta he had been assigned. i Police officials have speculated that the slain children might have voluntarily, gone with an abductor whom they thought they could trust perhaps because he was wearing a uniform. None of the abductions has been witnessed, and with one exception, there have been no signs that the victims resisted.
