- <p> Running hard for re-election in North Carolina, Senator
- Jesse Helms is enlisting the so-called dirty pictures he has
- so publicly opposed. At a barbecue in Burlington, Helms' speech
- included an invitation--men only, please--to examine three
- portfolios guarded by his assistants. "You won't look long
- because you just ate," Helms warned the curious, who stepped
- forward to peer at reproductions of the Robert Mapplethorpe
- nudes from the show partially funded by the National Endowment
- for the Arts. "Tell me whether you resent taxpayers' money
- going to this!" boomed the Senator.
