Goodstein is familiar to most&#13;
people through his popular and controversial&#13;
hi-weekly ADVOCATE column&#13;
called ~Opening Space.~ He is also&#13;
the founder and one of the facilitators&#13;
of the Experience Weekend (previously&#13;
called The Advocate Experience),&#13;
a two-day learning and&#13;
self-discovery workshop with over&#13;
7500 graduates.&#13;
His accomplishments as a leader&#13;
in the gay movement have reflected&#13;
his firm belief in the U S. system&#13;
of government. Goodst&amp;in was responsible&#13;
for creating the Gay Rights&#13;
National Lobby in 1976.&#13;
Super-Living: You Can Have the&#13;
Life You Want (Prentice Hall) is&#13;
Goodstein’s new book which tells how&#13;
to create abundance in&#13;
;relationships, money, health, and&#13;
happiness.&#13;
According te OHR president Brian&#13;
Mumey, Goodstein will arrive in&#13;
Tulsa on February 13, speak to OHR&#13;
that evening, and hold a press conference&#13;
the next day before returning&#13;
to Los Angeles. "This is a meeting&#13;
that Tulsa gays shouldn’t miss.&#13;
The board hopes to have a very good&#13;
turnout for Goodstein. We’re encouraging&#13;
everyone to attend and bring&#13;
some friends with them," said Mumey.&#13;

4000 Calls Monthly&#13;
"l’m worried about getting AIDS.&#13;
Do you have any information on it?"&#13;
"What do I do about my lover who may&#13;
be an alcoholic?" "I may be transferred&#13;
to Tulsa. What’s gay life&#13;
llke there?"&#13;
These are just a few of the questions&#13;
OHR Information Line volunteers&#13;
handled during one week in&#13;
January.&#13;
The Info Line records an average&#13;
of 4500 calls monthly, with trained&#13;
volunteers handllng over" 250 of&#13;
these calls personally. The question&#13;
most often asked relates to location&#13;
and atmosphere of local bars. However,&#13;
many callers ask for details&#13;
about OHR, while others need counsellng&#13;
or counseling referrals. Of&#13;
course, there are the usual number&#13;
of harrassment calls.&#13;
"I feel good after I’ve answered&#13;
a question, listened to someone with&#13;
a problem, or made someone feel less&#13;
lonely," said one volunteer. If you&#13;
want more information about the Info&#13;

New Executive Board Sets&#13;
1984 Goals&#13;
"OHR has made a real difference&#13;
in my llfe. I hate to think what&#13;
life in Tulsa would be like for gay&#13;
people without OHR."&#13;
In a way, this statement by one&#13;
relatively new Tulsan and OHR member&#13;
says it all. OHR makes a real&#13;
difference in Tulsa. For many lesblans&#13;
and gay men, the OHR newsletter&#13;
is their only informational&#13;
link to the gay community. For&#13;
others, the OHR Helpllne makes the&#13;
difference between loneliness/despair&#13;
and contact with someone who&#13;
car.es,&#13;
The 1984 OHR Executive Board has&#13;
dedicated itself to making this a&#13;
terrific year for OHR, for the entire&#13;
Tulsa gay community. Symbolic&#13;
of this effort is our first major&#13;
speaker of the year, David Goodstein,&#13;
publisher Of the ADVOCATE,&#13;
the nation’s leadlng gay newsmagazine.&#13;
We hope this will see standard&#13;
for the programs and projects we&#13;
undertake this year.&#13;
Look for continuing improvements&#13;
in the newsletter, the new outreach&#13;
efforts both to the gay and the&#13;
straight communities, for increased&#13;
membership, for programs both educational&#13;
and fun, ranging from our&#13;
Women’s Task Force to a terrific&#13;
special guest at the Mr. Tulsa contest.&#13;
This Executive ~oard will strive&#13;
to be creative, enthusiastic, and&#13;
energetic, yet realistic,&#13;
goal-oriented, and organized. Our&#13;
success will depend largely on&#13;
you--your ideas, your support, your&#13;
participation, your constructive&#13;
criticism, and when deserved, your&#13;
praise.&#13;
Where do we start?&#13;
JOIN ...if you are not an OHR&#13;
member, send in your check now. If&#13;
you are a member, share OHR with a&#13;
friend.&#13;
THINK ...what you can do to help&#13;
OHR reach more people and to improve&#13;
the programs. Let us know your&#13;
thoughts.&#13;
WORK ... in the many events we&#13;
have this year. Help with the garage&#13;
sale, volunteer for the Helpllne,&#13;
start a support group.&#13;
CARE ... ~bout yourself and also&#13;
about the needs, feelings, frustrations,&#13;
and ambitions of others. Help&#13;
OHR meet those needs.&#13;
You can help OHR make a&#13;
difference. It’s going to be a great&#13;
year. Be a part of it!&#13;
