Prostitution
ring's leader
sentenced
Associated Press
HOUSTON — A 32-year-old
woman convicted of running a pros
titution ring in three states was sen
tenced Thursday to five years’ pro
bation, fined $10,000 and ordered
to perform 250 hours of community
service work.
In addition to that sentence for
Penelope Hatteras of Sugar Land,
U.S. District Judge John Singleton
also ordered probation for two of
her associates.
Singleton said he believed the sen
tence was appropriate because Hat
teras’ past was “relatively free of
prior problems.”
Hatteras declined to comment on
the sentence.
She was convicted by a federal
court jury Aug. 9 on 21 counts of
conspiracy, using interstate facilities
to promote prostitution and violat
ing federal “white slavery” laws bar
ring the interstate transportation of
prostitutes.

The CLU is associated with the
national organization that defends
all freedoms defined in the Bill of
Rights, as well as those outlined in
the 14th Amendment, Nave said.
While the CLU supports freedom
of speech, it does not endorse the
ieparate opinions expressed by any
individual, Nave said. Its purpose is
not to take sides with any organiza
tion, but to ensure that they have the
opportunity to voice their ideas and
points of view.
Nave’s basic concept of freedom
if speech is the ability to educate
athers to one’s point of view. He be
lieves that other basic human rights
ire facilitated by freedom of speech.
“With the freedom of spieech, all
the others are dose behind,” Nave
said.
There is an organization whose
sole purpose is to protect the free
dom central to the American way of
life.
| The CLU is associated with the
national organization that defends
freedoms defined in the Bill of
Rights, as well as those outlined in
the 14th Amendment.
While the CLU supports freedom
of speech, it does not endorse the
separate opinions expressed by any
individual. Its purpose is not to take
sides with any organization, but to
ensure that they have the opportu
nity to voice their ideas and points of
view.
Brian Sterling, a CLU chairman,
said that the MSC Open House held
at the beginning of the semester pro
vided a perfect opportunity to begin
gathering groups to participate in
the speakers’ forum. Various groups
represented at the Open House
were approached and offered the
opportunity to communicate their
messages to a mass audience.
Thursday’s forum was composed
of groups that the CLU believes rep
resent more liberal points of view.
Five groups participated in the fo
rum. One of tne organizations rep
resented was Students Against
Apartheid. Sam Aletan, vice presi
dent of the organization, called
apartheid undemocratic.
“All America’s rights belong to
none of the blacks in South Africa,”.
Aletan said.
Amnesty International, another
group represented Thursday af
ternoon, favors the release of people
imprisoned for political, social or re
ligious reasons. The group also op
poses the use of torture and the
death penalty.
The members of Green Peace,
which opposes the use of nuclear
power in any way, shape or form,
communicated their message
uniquely by performing a skit titled
“The Wheel of Misfortune.” The
moral of the story was that the only
way to win the nuclear game is not to
play at all.
The National Organization for
Women is well known for its support
of women’s rights. However, the
group did not make a point of stat
ing its specific opinions. Because
NOW is trying to build up its mem
bership at the moment, it did not
want to set up any biases, the group
said.
Gay Student Services was rep
resented by President Marco Rob
erts. He addressed the issue of AIDS
and recapped the general goals of
the GSS.
At the next forum, the CLU
hopes to give more conservative
groups a chance to speak. If your or
ganization is interested in this op
portunity to express its views, con-,
tact Brian Sterling of the CLU.
