Jersey. She old Aboul the parents who had a female stripper for their son s Bachelor parly. I am a stripper who works for a singing ice Gram company in Pitts Burgh. I be been in this Job forever five years and have delivered Over 2,000 ice Grams i want put cd to know it is done in Good astr and is lots of fun. I be performed for Ernid groups at birthdays for women Only at Bash Clorella parties for women under 20 and Over 70, i be had Only 10 complaints. There is Noshin Odiny or disgusting about this occupation. My kids and narc Elsall know Whai i do for a living. If the woman they hired was anything like the Tele Gram we do in pit Burgh she was Ai the party about 10 minutes and Clown in hero string for about iwo. Nobody Louches anyone or exposes anything More than a Bare Bottom. I be clone the act in some of the finest restaurants and offices in town and have yet to be asked to leave for indecent behaviour. That 20-year old Guy was probably just embarrassed which is part of the fun. I Hope in u will print my letter and re store the dignity to our work that the Job deserves. . A Pittsburgh dear Pitts i have nothing against singing telegrams hut i full to see the dignity in a Bare bitty no or n is Ype performance. For parents to Phil on such a party is incredibly tasteless and dumb hey Imd belief. Dear Ann Landers i have two daughters who fight constantly. They Are 6 and 3 years old. The other night my girls were running around the House screaming. The 1-year-old was being chased by the 6-Ycar-old. I ran after them knowing one was going to get Hurt. As they went through the by room the younger girl Slid and hit her Mouth on the sink. She now has three from Teeth out and a swollen lip. Was i a bad Mother w let this happen will my Daugh Ter recover from this injury completely we have gone to two doctors and they won t say. Please respond. Worried in North Carolina if the doctors won t say you will simply have to wait and see. I can t help you there. Please gel off the guilt trip. The Accident was t your fault almost every child hurls him or herself As a result of running jumping falling or crashing into something. Von Tea t raise Kidi under a Glass Bell. Page 11 letters captives asked for trouble writers say the Story and pictures arc always the same. Again we re being treated to More front Page bombardment of lairs of kidnapped westerners in Beirut. This latest round should be the Straw that Breaks Tho Camel s Back. The list of captive includes americans germans French and others. A common characteristic of most of the captives is citizenship of a nation that has a free press. Their captors know the value of free publicity and arc now masters at obtaining and using it. They know thai their actions will be splashed All Over the front Page of every newspaper in America. They Are also masters of holding Western National interests hostage o their demands simply by Kidnap Ping citizens of whichever country they fail to agree with at any one time. Another Trail shared by the victims is prior knowl Edge of the dangers to westerners in Beirut. How Many professors and journalists have to be kidnapped and murdered before the message is Crystal Clear we can no longer afford to let american National interests he held to slag by terrorists who systematically Abdul people who insist on endangering their own safely by living and travelling to Beirut. We need to make in perfectly Clear to our citizens and terrorists alike that inc . Government will no longer entertain any demands placed on it by terrorise holding people too foolish Noi 10 stay out of Beirut. The free press in he Wen could reduce the attractiveness of hostage taking simply by removing the so Ries from the front Page. The stars and Stripe could even Lake the Lead by relegating All stories of his a lure to the sports Page since kidnapping appears to be the Well publicized National sport of Lebanon and has ceased being real news. Geoffrey Rodum Sandhagen German 1 former Lebanon to slag David Jacobson says thai the americans recently taken hostage in Beirut were of Nenish. I la go one step further and cull Lliam and any other westerners still there stupid these people go to Beirut and for whatever reason slay. They stay in a place that s loaded with violence blood shed and a deep hatred for us westerners particularly americans then after they Are kidnapped their relatives and even they themselves go on to and complain that their government is not doing enough for them. I seem to recall inc stale department advising americans to stay away from Beirut. This was a few years ago. It s sickening to think of How Liis administration has done everything in possibly can including illegal Arm sales to get our hostages out yet people persistently say that it s not enough. Well i m sorry but 1 have no sympathy for this group of prisoners. It was a Choice that they made 10 Slimy in Beirut. The victims of Twa flight 847 which was hijacked deserved anything our government did to ease the suffering they went through. These people who set themselves up to be kidnapped Don t deserve the hed space we give Lliam in Wiesbaden Call me uncaring bul i think it s stupid for anyone to let themselves remain in a position where they could count on being held hostage. My compassion lies with families of people like Robert St chem who truly was an innocent victim who died while on duty for his country. My sympathies lie with the families of the hostages in Beirut now sym Pathy for those poor souls having to be related to such foolish people.
