People in the news ‘Doonesbury’ jabs Fallwell LYNCHBURG, Va. (AP) A spokesman for the " Rev. Jerry Falwell, who lost a lawsuit against Larry Flynt and Hustler magazine over a crude satire, says portrayal of the case this week in the comic “Doonesbury” is fair comment. “I don’t think anybody puts newspaper cartoons and the ad parody that was before the Supreme Court in the same ballpark or the same category,” Falwell spokesman Mark DeMoss said. In a ruling viewed as a major victory for cartoonists who lampoon public figures, the U.S. Supreme Court last month threw out a $200,000 award a Roanoke federal jury granted Falwell in 1984 for emotional distress caused by the Hustler ad parody, which portrayed Falwell as a sexual deviant In Monday’s “Doonesbury,” cartoonist Garry Trudeau feigns a sigh of relief before cutting to a satire of evangelist Jimmy Swaggart’s alleged sexual misconduct “Dr. Falwell’s wife keeps a scrapbook of cartoons that mention him, so I’ll take the scissors and cut this out and it will go into the scrapbook,” DeMoss said. The editorial director for Universal Press Syndicate said Trudeau is not trying to prove that the court allowed him to sharpen his pen. “Garry’s just doing what he’s always done anyway,” Lee Salem said from his office in Kansas City, Mo. • LOS ANGELES (AP) Michael Jackson and recent Grammy winner Jody Watley led the nominations for the Second Annual Soul Train Music Awards. Jackson was nominated Monday for best single and album for “Bad” and for best music video for his hit single, “The Way You Make Me Feel.” Miss Watley, the former singer with the group Shalamar who won a Grammy last week for best new artist, received nominations for best single and album in the female division and will compete against Jackson in the music video category for her video, “Looking for a New Love.” Others receiving multiple nominations were Whitney Houston, Stevie Wonder, Natalie Cole, Prince, Janet Jackson and Earth, Wind & Fire. • LOS ANGELES (AP) Actor Robert Livingston, who rode the range in dozens of movies and was the only Lone Ranger to remove his mask, died Monday of emphysema. He was 83. When Livingston appeared in the 1939 movie “The Lone Ranger Rides Again,” Republic Pictures had him remove the mask briefly so that he would become the Lone Ranger in the public’s mind, making it difficult for other film companies to duplicate the popular character, said his son, Addison Randall.

MARE WINNINGHAM Appearances deceiving
Mare Winningham, the young actress who seems to have molded a career combining Brat Pack roles and social issue films, will play a destitute mother in ABC’s “God Bless This Child” March 21. While on breaks from filming the TV movie about a jobless, homeless mother trapped in a contemporary urban nightmare, the 28-year-old would leave the set dressed in her character’s shabby clothes. That, she told TV Guide, is when she learned all about discrimination. “In restaurants, people didn’t want to be near me,” Winningham said. “I remember this overwhelming feeling of wanting to clarify for them, ‘No, I’m not like this.’ I was so angry that people could judge me like that, yet that’s how we judge people by circumstance.” Rob Lowe says he’s finally playing himself in his latest motion picture role. In “Illegally Yours,” Lowe plays “a confused 25-year-old with a penchant for unstable romantic relationships.” “It’s totally me,” Lowe says in the March-April issue of In Fashion magazine. “In real life I’m obsessed with every woman. I’ve been like that since the day I was bom.” JMost notable of Lowe’s recent romances have been his two broken engagements to actress Melissa Gilbert and his fling with Princess Stephanie of Monaco. When he gets depressed, Lowe said, it’s almost always over women. “It’s funny ... they keep me going and torture me at the same time,” he added.
LOS ANGELES (AP) Harris Glenn Milstead, known to moviegoers as Divine, a campy, 300-pound transvestite, died of asphyxiation Monday. He was 42. Milstead, star of the latest John Waters-directed movie, “Hairspray,” was in Los Angeles to appear in an episode of the Fox television series “Married... With Children.” He was to have appeared in that role dressed as a man, but he was best known to movie fans as the bizarre female-impersonating star of such cult films as “Pink Flamingos,” “Lust In The Dust,” “Polyester” and “Female Trouble.”
