People in the news Fan club due for Dan Quayle PEORIA, 111. (AP) A central Illinois woman says Vice President Dan Quayle might need some cheering up because of all the jokes about him on television. So Dorothy Vallosio is trying to start a Dan Quayle Fan Club whose members would write to TV stations and express their belief that the vice president deserves respect. She also thinks Quayle, a 1969 DePauw University graduate, might appreciate letters from fan club members. “Like I say, ‘Kind words bring life,’ ” said Mrs. Vallosio. “It might rejuvenate him, so he’ll work harder for us.” A retired teacher who sells real estate, Mrs. Vallosio says talk show hosts Johnny Carson and Jay Leno frequently tell jokes about Quayle. “I wrote to Jay Leno,” she said, “and that young man didn’t listen to me.” Mrs. Vallosio said she believes some group must be behind the jokes. “There must be some marketing firm sending these jokes around,” she said. “I’d like to see where they get their jokes from.” • NEW YORK (AP) So what should Marla Maples, the alleged “other woman” in billionaire Donald Trump’s marital mess, expect from her involvement in the scuffle? Not much, said some other “other” women interviewed by People magazine in its March 5 issue. After word of her sexual liaison with television evangelist Jim Bakker, Jessica Hahn posed for Playboy for $1 million, was host of a mud-wrestling contest and now receives at least $2,000 for personal appearances. But Hahn told Maples, “Unless he’s prepared to marry you, and I don’t think he is, you’re better off just keeping your feet on the ground and pursuing your career.” “Nothing can beat paying your own bills,” Hahn said. Lobbyist Paula Parkinson, whose alleged relationship with Delaware Rep. Thomas Evans cost him his congressional seat, also posed for Playboy but rejected a television movie offer. Her advice to Maples? “If you are having an affair, it’s going to end, darling. It doesn’t turn into love and marriage.” RUTLAND, Vt (AP) Former Olympic skier Suzy Chaffee has been touring the country speaking out against animal-rights activists who would ban the sale of fur coats. For the past three years, Chaffee, 43, has helped design and promote a collection of fur-lined skiwear called Suzy Chaffee Sport Furs. She spoke in Aspen, Colo., before the recent defeat of a proposed ordinance that would have banned the sale of furs in the resort community, and has been appearing on talk shows. “My credibility is very important to me, and I feel I am really being responsible to the animals and to nature and to the environment because trapping them is better than letting them die the disease-and-starva-tion route,” she said. Chaffee, better known to the public as “Suzy Chapstick” because of her television commercial for lip balm, skied in the 1968 Winter Olympics and was a three-time world freestyle champion.

JACK NICHOLSON Art appreciation

NEW YORK (AP) Jack Nicholson, Madonna, Steve Martin, Bill Cosby it’s not the A-list for a hot Hollywood party, but four of America’s top 100 collectors, according to the March issue of Arts & Antiques magazine. “There are plenty of very rich people buying art who’ll never make this list,” editor Jeffrey Schaire said. “We seek out those who forge their own ways, who often follow their passions down some very unusual paths.” Madonna was cited for her collection of modem paintings and photographs. “I’m attracted to things that are about the sadness of living,” said the “Material Girl” singer. Nicholson likes American and European art and antiquities. His collection includes everything from Monet and Picasso to Mexican primitives and Etruscan bronzes. Cosby specializes in American furniture, paintings and folk art. Martin, a longtime collector of modem American art, recently bought an Edward Hopper lighthouse painting, Arts & Antiques reported. Why is he attracted to paintings? “A movie lasts an hour and a half,” the comic actor explained, “but a painting lasts two minutes or however long you’re going to look at it.” • NEW YORK (AP) Spike Lee says sex, not race, will generate a lot of heat in his new film, “Mo’ Better Blues.” “The audience may squirm,” Lee said in the March 5 issue of People magazine. The $lO million film starring Denzel Washington is about a trumpet player tom between his love of music and his desire for two women, a singer played by Cynda Williams and a Harlem schoolteacher played by Lee’s sister, Joie. Joie Lee said she had no problem working with her brother in scenes that called for nudity. “When he said, ‘Okay, take off your top,’ I just did it It’s not perverse,” she said. Williams said the love scenes are tasteful, “but when I think of going to see the movie with my parents and grandparents, it freaks me out.” • THIS WEEK’S CELEBRITY BIRTHDAYS: Actor Tony Randall, 70, singer Fats Domino, 62, and country star Johnny Cash, 58, are Monday’s birthday boys, while Tuesday means No. 60 for actress Joanne Woodward, No. 50 for actor Howard Hesseman and No. 47 for actress Mary Frann. Wednesday’s cake-and-candle set includes actor Charles Duming, 67, actor Gavin MacLeod, 59, and actress Bernadette Peters, 42. Thursday means No. 73 for singer Dinah Shore, No. 63 for singer Harry Belafonte, No. 43 for actor Alan Thicke, No. 36 for both actor-director Ron Howard and actress Catherine Bach.
