)r. Ruth will answer Aggies’ questions
about sex at first A&M appearance
By Elisa Hutchins
COMM Staff Writer
ternatioi Sex therapist Dr. Ruth West-
irther taBmer will make her first appear-
me at Texas A&M Friday at 2 p.m.
made praRudder Auditorium,
lal organ] Westheimer will give a 45-minute
favorabijeture called “Sexually Speaking,”
|p will answer previously sub-
im is d|itted questions from the audience
;ds of el a program sponsored by MSC
hods, 1* teat Issues,
ers exp«
ollegean dichelle DeVoe, a senior psychol-
ire. major and chairman of Great Is-
not dose s , said the organization asked
ow, we’i stheimer to speak at A&M be
lie eduoiise she is the most popular lec-
irerin the country.
|Vestheimer, syndicated radio
w host and author of “Good
Sex,” has been chosen as the out
standing speaker of the year since
1986 by the National Association of
Campus Activities.
“MSC Great Issues wanted to
bring Dr. Ruth here because the
University environment seems inter
ested in sexually related issues, like
safe sex,” Devoe said.
Part of the promotion of West-
heimer’s lecture has included the
distribution of condoms by Great Is
sues and MSC Political Forum. The
condoms, donated by Planned Par
enthood, were distributed Wednes
day in front of the MSC and the
Blocker Building.
DeVoe said their distribution is an
effort to publicize both Westheim-
er’s visit and an AIDS symposium
Wednesday, which is sponsored by
Political Forum.
After the lecture, Dr. Robert
Hurley, a health and physical educa
tion professor, will read the audi
ence-submitted questions.
Hurley teaches Health Education
342, a human sexuality class. In the
past few years, he said, sex has be
come a topic people talk more
openly about.
“Dr. Ruth is popular because a lot
of people have questions and don’t
know who to ask, and by calling in to
her radio program, they can get an
answer without giving a name,”
Hurley said.
He said Ruth serves a purpose be
cause she stresses communication
between the sexes.
“Many females would like to be
more aggressive, and many male stu
dents have expressed the same de
sire for them to be, but to a point,”
Hurley said. “It comes down to com
munication, and that is the void that
Dr. Ruth is filling.”
Wendy Stock, an A&M assistant
professor of psychology, agrees.
“Dr. Ruth is not a trained psychol
ogist, but I agree with her advice
about 90 percent of time,” Stock
said. “She has been a positive influ
ence on our sexually repressed cul
ture that is still shrouded with guilt
in our modern world.”
Westheimer earned her doctorate
in interdisciplinary study of the fam
ily from Columbia University.
She has a private practice in New
York City.
Tickets for the lecture are $4 for
students and $5 for non-students.
•olice suspect band of women in purse thefts

ODESSA (AP) — Store clerks who keep an eye
it for shoplifters might be watching for the
rong thing, says a police official who believes a
g of young women is specializing in snatching
ts’ purses.
Many of the 400 purse thefts since last Decem-
5r were committed by a group of about 20
icn varying in age from 16 to 25, Odessa po-
Cpl. Bianca Brister said.
“This is a group that totally and completely
support themselves on purse thefts,” she said.
The women operate in groups of two to four,
according to autnorities. One goes into the back
room of a business, where the purses usually are
kept, on the pretense of using the restroom or a
pay phone. The partners distract the clerk with
questions.
“Any type of small business in Odessa that has
one to two clerks is a pc
Brister said. “Clerks watch customers to
shoplifting because shoplifting is some
thing they’ve been taught to be more afraid of
than losing their purse.”
At the end of 1986 and the first few months of
this year, Odessa police received 50 purse theft
reports a month, Brister said. Midland also had a
slight increase in purse thefts, though the rate in
both cities has gone down since, she said.
