President, family end 12-day
vacation in Marthas Vineyard
EDGARTOWN, Mass. (AP) —
He golfed; boy did he golf. He ate
out and played the saxophone
and sang with a rock band and
read and shopped and boated
and bicycled and squeezed in a
few hours of work. What did
President Clinton get out of all
this vacation
activity?
Rest and re-
evaluation.
“He had time
to spend with
his family. Re
lax. Slow
down,” White
House press
secretary Dee
Dee Myers said
Tuesday. “He
found it helpful to leave the
workaday world of Washington
and get away in order to rest
and gain some perspective.”
A 12-day vacation on chic
Martha’s Vineyard was sched
uled to end Wednesday for the
president and first lady Hillary
Rodham Clinton. Their teen-age
daughter, Chelsea, left with a
girl friend a few days early to
get ready for school.
The president came to this
island retreat frustrated and
drained by a summer of discon
tent. Whitewater hearings fur
ther eroded his administra
tion’s credibility and the fight
for a crime bill imperiled health
care reform.
When he stepped off the Air
Force plane into a cool, ocean
breeze and an adoring crowd of
tourists and island residents,
Clinton’s first order of business
was clear: Relax.
He jumped head first into the
vacation. He rose early the first
day to play golf, then jogged and
spent the evening at a dinner
party. It set a pattern of dawn-
through-dark fun with family
and rich-or-famous friends.
He golfed seven of the first 11
days, trying without success to
break 80. Washington lobbyist
Vernon Jordan was part of his
foursome each time. Mrs. Clin
ton joined him once, for a cold,
rainy Labor Day round. Chelsea
and the first lady played minia
ture golf with Clinton one night.
He jogged at least three times
outside the 25-acre estate the
family borrowed for the trip.
He ate out, either at a restau
rant or private residence, at
least six of the first 11 days.
That does not include the party
he threw for the press, high
lighted by his saxophone jam
session and off-key duets with
singer Carly Simon.
Mrs. Clinton stayed out of the
public eye much of the time, al
though she did bicycle and shop
with the family. Chelsea rode a
horse and sailed on the estate,
quietly slipping out for dinner
with her friend.
Clinton attended church
twice and went to a Rosh
Hashana service. Afterward, he
had dinner in a trendy French
restaurant with celebrity
lawyer Alan Dershowitz.
“He kept saying, ‘Greater :
Wonderful day. Great vacation]
Dershowitz said.
But it wasn’t all play fortll i
president. He also took time:-:
think about the mistakes of::: j
past year and look forward to': s
year ahead in what Myers calk-
“a process of evaluating himself
The process worked in 1983
He left Martha's Vineyard*'
gized last year, more confife ,
of passing the trade bill betwe:
Mexico, Canada and the Unik
States. It was approved afo
weeks later.
Clinton’s first post-vacatir
speeches last year were laceli
with references to community vai:
ues and the role of religionit
public life, and his first public a:
pearance last fall was a prayei
breakfast with religious leaders.
Look for the same theme tbs
year. His first post-vacation ap
pearance will be a meeting wilt
religious leaders Thursday mom!
ing. He will address community
values in a speech to a Baptist
group Friday in New Orleans. !
Clinton didn’t entirely net
work off his mind. He welcomed
Ireland’s deputy prime ministef
to his retreat and discusseda|
cease-fire in Northern Ireland!
His days began with a briefinf!
from his national security team
on the latest refugee tallies ini
Cuba and preparations for war
in Haiti.
But the point is he got away
for a while.

Television ignores, negatively
portrays Hispanics, study shows
WASHINGTON (AP) — Even as television has
improved its portrayal of blacks, it increasingly
has ignored Hispanics and depicted them in nega
tively, a new study concludes.
Hispanics are less visible in prime time than
they were in the 1950s, the Center for Media and
Public Affairs says in a report commissioned by a
national Hispanic advocacy group.
Latinos comprised 1 percent of all characters
portrayed during the 1992 television season.
Blacks accounted for 17 percent of all television
characters, the analysis said.
“Black groups sometimes complain their por
trayal is window-dressing,” said the center’s co-di-
rector and one of the study’s authors, Robert
Lichter. “Hispanics don’t even have window-dress
ing. There’s nothing there for them.”
The study was to be presented at a news confer
ence Wednesday by Lichter and the National
Council of La Raza, a civil rights group represent
ing more than 100 Hispanic community organiza
tions. The council commissioned the report and in
recent months has criticized both entertainment
and news media for their portrayal of Hispanics.
The center concluded that Hispanics have been
cast in negative roles proportionately more than
both blacks and Anglo-Americans.
A breakdown of characters from 1992 found
that 16 percent of the Hispanic characters com
mitted crimes, compared to 4 percent each for
blacks and Anglo-Americans. Hispanics were
portrayed negatively 18 percent of the time, com
pared to 8 percent for Anglo-Americans and 6
percent for blacks.
Minorities remain more likely to be portrayed
as working-class or poor, the study also found. It
1992, 28 percent of Hispanic characters were de
picted as poor, compared to 24 percent of black;
and 18 percent of whites.
La Raza is seeking to emulate the successes
that black civil-rights organizations have had it 1
demanding more representation on television, said;
spokeswoman Lisa Navarette.
In addition to further study, Ms. Navarette ,
said her organization will seek meetings with!
the networks.
“There is no question that bigotry or racism
certainly plays a role in this, but I think it has
more to do with ignorance,” she said, when asked!
to explain the lack of Hispanic representation oa
television.
“Hollywood, like Washington, is a very insular
community. They don’t know our community. We
are not in the loop in Hollywood.”
The study found that ABC had the least repre'
sentation of Hispanics in 1992, with less than 1
percent of all characters portrayed by Latinos.
ABC spokeswoman Janice Gretemeyer said it
was network policy not to comment on studies it
hasn’t seen. She declined to discuss in general the
network’s treatment of Hispanics.
Fox was first, with 2.7 percent of its characters
portrayed by Hispanics; while CBS and NBC tied
at 2.5 percent. j
Fox had the highest number of Latinos depicted
in negative or criminal roles — 38 percent — the
study found. Spokesman Richard Licata didn’t im
mediately return a call seeking comment.
NBC was second, at 26 percent; followed by !
ABC, 25 percent; and CBS, 17 percent.
