Flashers wanted for study
of exhibitionist problems
i by Briuili

United Press International
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Dr. Wil
liam Murphy needs a few good
men — all of them flashers.
Murphy, a clinical psycholog
ist at the University of Tennessee
Center for the Health Sciences,
and four other researchers have a
$176,000 federal grant to study
the problems of the exhibitionist.
“We want people out there
who are exposing themselves to
know that we exist,” Murphy said
Thursday. “It’s free of charge and
hilly confidential. ”
Murphy said the study, for
which he needs about 40 volun
teers, will try to identify common
characteristics in exhibitionists as
well as successful methods of
treatment.
So far there don’t seem to be
any common bonds among those
men with the problem, he said.
Some flash to children, some to
women. Some may be releasing
anger, others trying to express
masculinity.
There’s one overriding reason
these individuals need treat
ment, Murphy said. Some move
on to more serious sexual
offenses.
“Most of them don’t have any
violent tendencies, but some do
go on to rape and molesting chil
dren,” he said. “Perhaps 5 per
cent go on to rape.”
Surprisingly, Murphy said, 60
to 70 per cent of exhibitionists
have normal sexual outlets. But
some 30 to 40 percent either have
difficulty meeting or talking to
women, or have a desire to re
lease anger or prove their sexual
prowess.
There is a big difference in the
male exhibitionist and a female
stripper, Murphy said. He said
there’s no such thing as a female
exhibitionist.
“The majority of women that
strip on stage or pose nude don’t
get any sexual satisfaction,” said
Murphy. “It’s a job for the ma
jority. ”
Exhibitionists are not all dirty
old men in trench coats as the
stereotype suggests.
“We’ve seen executives and
we’ve seen blue-collar workers”
at the clinic, he said. “We’ve had
people who are unemployed,
we’ve seen Ph.D.’s. It’s hard for
me to think of any level of people
we haven’t seen.”

United Press International
WASHINGTON — A report prepared for the Air
and sudi force concludes construction of the MX missile system

I underground mineral reserves and prove damaging to
though o ^ mining industry.
nlandsoiii preliminary study by Furgo National, Inc., an
i Spillmaa) engineering and geological firm, said the region where
saidnow the mobile missile system is to be deployed is “part of
image hii oneofthe premier active exploration areas in the United
States.”
But without assurances of access to federal lands by
prospectors, it said the vast MX system — designed to
ihuttle its missiles among 4,600 hide-and-seek under
ground shelters — will adversely affect mining efforts.
r 'The construction of the MX system on such lands
could seriously impair mineral resource development,”
said the report, released Tuesday.
The Air Force has said its siting of the MX “will avoid
mown mining areas.” It said the system “has the inhe-
nicked, i •entflexibility” to allow for prospecting for minerals, gas
ere ablel md oil.

guaranteed access can the Air Force soften the impact
on the mineral industry, vital to some parts of the West.
“Persons or companies holding mineral leases or min
ing claims in conflict with MX withdrawal areas will be
directly impacted by MX deployment,” it said. "The
ability of industry to conduct significant exploration and
development within the deployment areas is likely to be
impaired.”'
The report covered 29 of the 36 potential areas in
which the Air Force seeks to deploy the MX in the Great
Basin area.
Exploration to the year 2000 and beyond, it said, “is
expected to locate numerous new economic deposits of
metallics, uranium, nonmetallics, industrial minerals
and oil and gas in both the ranges and the valleys. ” It
said 10 strategic materials, more than half of which now
are imported, can be found in the area.
The MX system, for which $2.4 billion has been
budgeted for fiscal 1982, is designed to replace missiles
now confined to stationary silos.
The estimated total cost of the program is at least $34
billion, with deployment to be completed before the
end of the decade.

Reagan speaks to nation tonight
List reveals many budget cuts
United Press International
WASHINGTON — Food stamps,
extended unemployment benefits,
highway programs, public service
jobs and grants to state and local gov
ernments are targeted for big budget
cuts by the Reagan administration,
congressional sources say.
A preliminary list of cuts for the
rest of fiscal 1981 and for 1982 was
distributed to some members of
Congress this week. One called it
“nonpermanent, ” indicating it could
change by the time President
Reagan sends details to Congress
Feb. 18.
Reagan addresses the nation on
the general state of the economy
Thursday night.
In a preview of those remarks,
White House press secretary Jim
Brady said Tuesday the president
will pledge to not hurt the “truly
poor and indigent.”
“We’re not going to balance the
budget on the backs of the poor,”
Brady said.
Sources said the list, yet to be
completed, would cut “somewhere
in the neighborhood of $50 billion”
from the budget during the three-
year jperiod under consideration,
1981-83.
The Reagan list calls for cutting
grants to states and local communi
ties by 15 to 20 percent and distribut
ing the aid as block grants, rather
than for a variety of categorical prog
rams, with no strings attached to
their use.
It calls for a major change in the
trade adjustment assistance prog
ram, which ballooned to $3 billion
from $300 million to help steel and
auto workers who lost jobs because of
foreign imports.
Benefits would not be available
unless unemployment benefits were
exhausted, sources said. That would
all but eliminate the program.
Extended unemployment benefits
jobless workers receive after the reg
ular 52-month benefits end, also
would be reduced.
Food stamps are targeted to be cut
by more than $2.6 billion next year
and child nutrition programs by ab
out $1 billion.
Highway funds would be drastical
ly reduced until the economic situa
tion improves, and the synthetic
fuels program initiated under Presi
dent Carter also would be cut sub
stantially.
Reagan has said he will not reduce
Social Security benefits to the elder
ly next year, but was reported ready
to make changes in the program,
such as eliminating the minimum
payment, now $122 a month, and
college student benefits.
Reagan is expected to propose
phasing out public service jobs prog
rams under fire for years, and put
ting more emphasis on training.
Some 100,000 jobs under the Com
prehensive Employment and Train
ing Act’s controversial Title VI prog
ram are to be eliminated.
The list includes proposals to cut
in half federal funds for the National
Endowment for the Arts and the Na
tional Endowment for the Humani
ties, which were expected to get
more than $160,000 each next year.
Funds for public broadcasting also
would be cut, but not by half.
Agencies like the Economic De
velopment Administration, Rural
Electrification Administration and
Tennessee Valley Authority would
get less money, and even some space
programs would be deferred for 1982
reductions.
