and the authorities in Warsaw are unable to
contain these attacks, much less blunt them and turn
them back physically, and the Communist Party of Po
land begins to fracture, then indeed they would be
sorely tempted to invade,” Cook said.
“But the cost would be tremendous because the
Poles, they (the Soviets) clearly estimate, would fight
and there would be willful, organized resistance on the
part of the Polish armed forces and guerrilla warfare by
the Polish population and it would take far more troops
than they have in Poland today and far more troops than
they have in the western U.S.S.R. to contain it,” Cook
said.
“And then what have they got after it’s all over?”
Cook, intelligence aide to the special adviser for
Soviet affairs to Secretary of State Edmund Muskie, said
the Soviets would continue to expand their influence
“whenever and wherever” possible for the duration of
the Brezhnev era.
“Europe was and is and remains the major target of
Soviet attention,” he said.
But he said the Soviets were hindered by their com
mitment in Afghanistan “and the realization that if they
did launch an invasion of Poland to put down a real
Polish insurrection it would have to be so massive and so
bloody that for all intents and purposes detente in
Europe would be dead for a generation and we’d be back
in the depths of the Cold War.”

The man with whom the govern
ment says Mclnnis had asked to
arrange the plot had gone to author
ities, and they had notified Villa

Attorneys for the government
have said they expect to call one
more witness in this phase of the trial
and then rest their case, probably
sometime today.
Court observers said the psychiat
rist who examined Mclnnis for the
government probably will be re
served for rebuttal testimony for de
fense expert witnesses. The expert
witnesses may testify that Mclnnis
was insane or had diminished mental
capacity, which are his pleas to the
charges against him when he
allegedly discussed arrangements for
Villanueva’s slaying.
Mclnnis, 64, and Parada, 26, were
indicted for conspiracy in connection
with the plot in June 1978. After they
appeared before a grand jury, they
also were indicted for perjury. In
subsequent proceedings, all charges
except the perjury count were dis
missed.

Nude men too shy
for photographer
United Press International
DALLAS — Freelance photo
grapher Kathy Metcalf, who has
fought an uphill battle to publish a
calendar of male nudes, says she
found “macho masculinity dis
appears” when the person behind
the camera is a woman.
Metcalf has encountered a double
standard amd numerous other
headaches trying to get the calendar
published. She lost her job, had to
fight to get a printer and ran into
some normally masculine men who
became very shy once their clothes
were off.
“It was a hard task,” she said. “I
came to discover that men are vain
and very shy. That macho masculin
ity disappears when there’s a woman
behind the camera.”
The dozen photos in her calendar,
scheduled for an October release,
are less revealing that most under
wear magazine ads, but Metcalf said
getting the pictures in her cramped
east Dallas studio took a great deal of
time and effort.
“My models were all friends, so I
could joke with them and hold con
versations while we were working. I
was working with nothing but the
model against a black background, so
positioning the body and lighting
was very time-consuming. ”
She said even with friends, many
models showed marked personality
changes once they were facing the
camera with nothing on.
“Some of my friends are the urban
cowboy type, with jeans, hat and
boots, and they are very masculine,”
she said. “But once they took their
clothes off and were faced with look
ing into a camera, they became shy,
timid and even withdrawn. The air of
being the dominant male dis
appeared.”
Metcalf speculated that part of
the personality changes came be
cause the nude photo sessions were
something new, but she also blamed
the double standard.
“I had one model who was ex
tremely self-conscious of a scar on his
leg — a Vietnam war injury. If I had
been a man, I don’t think he would
have minded,” she said.
Metcalf in August lost her job in
the production control department
of Glitsch, Inc., a manufacturer of oil
and chemical refining equipment,
because, she said, she was not
allowed to photograph unclad men.
‘It’s probably the best thing that
could have happened,” she said.
“Basically, I was a paper pusher,
and that’s not what I really wanted
to do, anyway.
“As a woman taking male nudes
I’ve run into a lot of stumbling blocks
that a male Playboy photographer
wouldn’t run into.”
