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.

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.

■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.
"They were a little chary ai

check me out. Shatner said puli

Judge dismisses suit
of Houston gay activist
United Press International
United Press International
HOUSTON — A federal
judge Tuesday dismissed a gay
rights activist’s lawsuit against
the City of Houston charging
police violated his civil rights by
arresting him for interfering
with officers in 1982.
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.

Hill had sought $150,000
damages and a court ruling that
the ordinance allowing arrests
for interfering with officers at a
scene was too broad and there
fore unconstitutional.
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

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.

“Since I influence so many
people who watch the show I
thought it would be a good idea
to have Kay undergo the opera
tion,” she said.
“I’m doing it the right way
and I want other women who
are thinking about cosmetic sur
gery to go about it as carefully
as 1 have. 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.”
