-------------

	Last night, Wednesday, Oct 3, on CNN's "Crossfire" show, there
was a discussion about the civil rights act which the Senate had just
defeated.  On the show was a former official of N.O.W.  She refered to
the males in collegiate athletics as "boys".  (I haven't been out of
college so long as to think of college aged people as "boys" and "girls".)

	How can we change people's attitudes when the very representatives 
of the organizations trying to affect the change slip up in this manner?
I'm sure that many men noticed her useage and thought it, at the least,
hypocritical.  I did.

	Let's here it for "women" and "men"!
