United Press International HUNTSVILLE — A death row inmate, who charged prison officials delayed surgery to correct a temporary colos tomy because he was a con demned man, was sent for med ical re-evaluation Tuesday. Prison officials said missed communications must have caused the delay in treatment for Calvin Williams, 23, and he was sent to the prison wing of John Sealy Hospital in Galves ton for re-evaluation Tuesday. Williams was stabbed twice in the torso last April 20 by two other inmates who claimed self- defense and were never pros ecuted. Williams’ injuries made it necessary for doctors to per form a colostomy, which tempo rarily diverted his excretory tract through his stomach wall into a bag he wears around his waist. Williams, who was convicted of burglary and murder in the 1980 death of a woman travel agent in Houston, said he was assured at the time the colos tomy was temporary and that permanent corrective surgery would be performed eventually. He said he was sent to John Sealy last Nov. 27 for the sur gery but was returned to Hunt sville a week later. He said he received no satisfactory expla nation from Texas Department of Corrections doctors. “I asked them why they didn’t operate on me and they said they were going to wait un til I got my sentence commuted to life,” Williams said. Williams said the delay in the corrective surgery has caused him considerable pain and em barrassment. TDC officials said Williams’ discharge from John Sealy was the result of “miscommunica- tion” between their staff and the Galveston hospital and said Williams will get medical help. Doctors said a colostomy is not life-threatening and that many people live with perma nent colostomies. TDC officials in the past have acknowledged condemned kill ers did not receive the same medical care as other prisoners. Under sweeping prison re forms ordered by U.S. District Judge William Wayne Justice of Tyler, who still presides over unfinished business in the 12- year-old Ruiz v. Estelle case, TDC agreed to end such dis crimination. The published reports about Williams’ allegations caused the TDC to reschedule him for sur gical evaluation, said Dr. Ar- mond H. Start, chief of the state prison’s medical division. “I think there must have been some misunderstanding as far as I can tell,” Start said, “some miscommunication be tween the staff (at John Sealy) and our medical staff. He was discharged from the surgery clinic and that was a misunder standing without question.” A spokeswoman for John Sealy denied the death sentence was the reason Williams was re turned to prison. Linda MacDonald said Wil liams’ surgery was considered “elective” ana that the hospital schedule “was too full” to ac commodate him in November. She said it was the responsibility of TDC to reschedule his sur gery. Williams said he only eats one meal a day because of his condi tion. He has lost about 9 pounds and is down to 154 pounds. “Everybody looks at you like your’re a freak,” he said. “Most of the talk now is about my ba S ’. Williams charged prison guards order him to tuck in his shirtail, knowing full well that he cannot because of his condi tion. He also said he is being pun ished for talking to reporters. He said guards restrict his time in the shower although he needs more time to properly clean his two open wounds. Gotta melumiootoh THOSE SPEED MPS! o O- Nimoy guards Spock’s fate United Press International HOLLYWOOD — They blew away Mr. Spock in “Star Trek II,” and if Leonard Nimoy doesn’t find the pointy-eared Vulcan in “Star Trek III: The Search for Spock,” the sci-fi se ries will self-destruct. Nimoy, who has played Spock from its television begin nings back in 1966, is searching for himself inasmuch as the multi-talented actor-producer- writer-poet is directing the sec ond sequel of the outer space movies. Future sequels hinge on whether Spock is found. If not, scrub the series. Who needs “Star Trek’s” other spacemen clowning around without the emotionless Vulcan who evokes so much affection from earthl ing moviegoers. As spacemen go, Spock is su preme, far more acceptable than such cutie pies from the far stellar reaches as Yoda, E.T. and that hairy sap Chewbacca, the inarticulate Wookie from “Star Wars.” “Star Trek” without Spock makes as much sense as “Dallas” without J.R., who is a spacy character himself. Nimoy won’t say if Spock is reVulcanized, reincarnated or whatever happens to born- again Vulcans. “We can’t divulge that,” said Nimoy with a wry grin. Was it difficult for him to di rect himself as Spock? “That would be a giveaway, wouldn’t it?” The grin broad ened. Will Spock reappear on an other life plane or as an image in a time warp? Maybe as a shade who, like the ghost of Ja cob Marley, tells Commander James Kirk to scrap the starship Enterprise? “We’re saying nothing,” Ni moy said, “except the picture deals with Spock’s presence. I hope it works. We’ll know June 1 when the picture opens.” Nimoy spent $16 million and 49 shooting days on his film, de voting 10 weeks to pre-produc tion, not counting script devel opment, and another 16 weeks in post production — a year of his life. Paramount’s choice of Nimoy By BI1 Assist bnight int in th ente baske top. but a l same. ■With tb for director came out of the blue. “I had a play or pay deal for two other jobs at the studio,” Nimoy explained. “That means they had to come up with two pictures for me in a specified time or pay me anyhow. The first one was the TV' movie, ‘A Woman Called Golda.’ (oppo site Ingrid Bergman and for which he won an Emmy nomi nation) “No second project w'as re ady. When they asked me about ‘Star Trek III,’ all I could think of was to direct. 1 was 17 years behind my schedule to direct and 1 liked the idea. “I began my career in theater in the ’50s. I clid TV in the ’60s and ’70s, and was side-tracked by success playing Spock.” Nimoy did manage to direct his one-man show, “Vincent" (Van Gogh), which he played on stage in 35 cities and on ca ble television. He also directed episodes of “The Powers of Matthew' Starr” and “T.J. hooker.” He says the reactions of the “Star Trek” cast were curious. Suddenly cast members found themselves taking direction! from one of their own kind. Nimoy wondered how Wil liam Snatner (Commandn Kirk), DeForest Kelley(Dr.Mc Coy), Geroge Takei (Sulu),Wal ter Koenig (Chekov), Jams Doohan (Scotty) and Nichdk Nichols (Uhura) would accept him as boss after rubbing d- !x)ws with him as fellow actor.

U.S. District Judge James DeAnda ruled Ray Hill, 43, a leader in the Houston homo sexual community, did not suf fer a civil rights violation and that Hill deliberately provoked his own arrest.

DeAnda ruled there was no evidence supporting Hill’s ar gument he was arrested in part because of his sexual prefer ence. DeAnda also ruled there was no evidence supporting Hill’s claim the ordinance was misused against gays. Hill’s suit said he was ar rested on the class G misdemea nor charge after trying to help another man who was having some difficulty with police at a traffiejam. HOLLYWOOD — Soap op eras reach the ultimate plot twist when an actress has a real face lift operation on camera and in character. Jeanne Cooper, a 10-year veteran of “The Young and The Restless,” will undergo cos metic surgery in a hospital op erating room March 12 as the cameras grind away. Eight or 10 days later viewers will see Jeanne, in the character of Kay Chancellor, a wealthy dowager, havd the plastic sur gery. The operation will be per formed by Dr. Harry A. Glass- man, but his patients won’t rec ognize him in his operating clothes, cap and mask. Anyhow, the cameras will be focused on his hands and Jeanne’s face. An actor has been hired to play Dr. Classman in pre-opera tion and post-operation shots. The idea for including the surgery in the show was all Jeanne’s. She planned to have the operation last December, unhappy that it would keep her out of the show for seven weeks. Then she suggested having Kay undergo the face lift, too, allowing Jeanne to continue in her role during recuperation and adding yet another dimen sion to her character. “I know who I am and any thing I put on my face after the_ operation I put there myself,” she said. “Previously other peo ple contributed to it.” Her reference was to an un happy 30-year marriage, which recently ended in divorce. Jeanne did not reveal her age, but it can be safely placed well over 50. Her face is affixed with the usual number of crows feet, wrinkles and lines of mid dle years. She is a handsome woman with a twinkle in her eye.

I checked out four surgeons before I settled for Dr. Glassman, who I think is the best. “I’m having a total face lift in several stages. Actually, it will take a whole year. But the first operation is the one that will be integrated into the show next month.” It turned out that Jeanne un derwent cosmetic eye surgery several years ago. “I had 65 stitches,” she said. “I followed doctor’s orders and applied ice packs to my face 24 hours a day and in five days I was back on the show.” Guriously, regular viewers of “The Young and the Restless” won’t detect a dramatic differ ence in Jeanne’s appearance once the surgery is completed Houston L and die swelling and bruisesdi I Houstoi minish.
