Tammy F&ye9s drag orde'sl ;
Mascara-caked evangelist survives demonic 3 a. m. permanents
L i Yl TL Clulj' hostess Tammy bugs crawling on the floor and people

months. Earlier rumors claimed
two
that the 45 year-old evangelist was suf
fering from AIDS. But the PTL ministry
disclosed Friday that Bakker is being
treated for a 17-year drug dependency.
Her husband Jim Bakker blamed
the problem on an over-the-counter
allergy medicine she has been taking
since her 17-year-old daughter Tammy
Sue Bakker was born. Tammy Faye
reportedly was addicted to tranquiliz
ers that doctors prescribed to reduce
attacks of nervousness and hyperactiv
ity that the medicine caused.

Faye came down with pneumonia. Jim
said he gave his wife copious amounts
of cold medicines that only seemed to
make her worse.
"Tammy Faye became hyperactive
and I once found her giving herself a
permanent at 3 in the morning," he
tearfully told viewers. "Another time I
found her bleaching her hair platinum
blond in the middle of the night."
Soon Tammy Faye started to halluc
inate and became delirious.
"I imagined that there were demons
in the cottage," she told viewers as
tears rolled out of her heavily made-up
eyes. "Finally, even though I was hal
lucinating and on the brink of death, I
called for Jesus to help save'me from
the demons. 'In the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ, I command you to leave!'
And people, it worked."
Jim said doctors suggested that
Tammy Faye seek treatment at the
posh Eisenhower Medical .Center in
her well.
Tammy Faye 'had
basically been
going through a
constant state of
withdrawal for 17
years.

state of withdrawal for 1 7 years" because
she never took enough tranquilizers to
cure the effect of the allergy medicine.
Tammy Faye has been drug-free for,
several weeks now, and her family has
been going through counseling to deaj
with her problem.
"Little Jamie Charles received a cer:

Jim said that they will be absen

because doctors have advised them tq
do so.
"I know that in the past I put the
ministry first," he said, putting his arm
around his mascara-caked wife. "But
this time I'm not going to leave my

The Bakkers said when they come
back to Heritage U.S.A., they plan to
build a multimillion-dollar drug-treatment
center to help people that are "in
trouble just like Tammy Faye."
Jim said the National Enquirer dis
covered the Bakkers' plight and sent a
reporter to the Eisenhower Medical
Center.
"But, bless their hearts, they never
ran the story," he said.
"I'm so grateful to God for a case of
pneumonia that brought me to this joy

Faye cooed as tears once again rolled
off her false eyelashes. "God has turned
my mistakes into miracles!"
Fire-and-brimstone TV evangelist
Oral Roberts was also on the show.
"This is a high moment in the life of
America," Roberts told PTL viewers
proudly. "This is the greatest act of
courage I've ever seen in Jim and
Tammy Faye. The blood of Jesus is hov

Tammy Faye, the cosmetic industry
is praying for your recovery.
Czech tribute to Laurel and Hardy
inMeneVs 'My Sweet Little Village'
By Stew Magnuson
Senior Reporter
In a tiny Czechoslovakian village of
Krecovice, a trucker strolls down the
cobblestone streets with his skinny
assistant Otik. Otik is the village sim
pleton, cheerful but a little clumsy.
Pavrek has the unfortunate job of keep
ing Otik out of trouble and catching
the blame for the destruction of local
property caused by Otik's little acci
dents. Yes, these guys sound like the
Czech Laurel and Hardy.
The mimicking of the famous duo by
acclaimed film director and Academy
Award-winner Jiri Menel is quite inten
tional and often hilarious in his latest
"My Sweet Little Village."
But this film is more than a tribute
to Stan and Ollie. It's a loving picture
of small-town life in Czechoslovakia.
Besides Otik and Pavek, we have Dr.
Skruzny (Rudolph Hrusinsky) who, so
caught up in the beautiful scenery and
reciting poetry during morning drives,
manages to crash his car daily.
We have the young adulterous affair
between the pretty Mrs. Turck and the
engineer Kaspar, And we have Pavek's
oldest boy desperately in love with a
schoolteacher. But mostly we have the
"mentally backwards" Otik and the
nice little cottage left to him by his
parents.
At the end of the harvest Pavek is
giving Otik his walking papers. Five
years of putting up with the oaf is
enough for him.
Movie Review
But some big-city bureaucrats get
hold of this interesting piece of infor
mation and convince Otik to move to
the big city (just so they can get his
nice cottage for weekend trips to the
country).
Since everyone else's business is
everyone else's business, the town is in
an uproar. Otik would be lost in the Lig
city. But Pavek remains stubborn. And,
cf course, we have the other love stories
to keep our attention as well.
Menzel is compassionate to all his
characters. Only the jealous Mr. Turek
Is a bad guy. Menzel also takes little
jabs at the big-city communist bureau
crats, more interested in a weekend
retreat than their so-called "comrades.":
Even though this fictional village is
a continent and a whole political sys
tem away, small-town Nebraskans may
still recognize some of these people,
especially the old, nosy women, the
merchants of small-town gossip.
The slapstick isn't particularly hilar
ious, but the expressions on Otik's face
and his goofy laughs in the face of
Pavek's rage are quite funny. "My
Sweet Little Village," is a fantastic
tribute to small-town life, wherever
that small town might be.
"My Sweet Little Village" runs
for the next two weekends at
the Sheldon Film Theater.
Screenings are at 7 and 9 p.m!
with Sunday matinees at 3 and 5
p.m. (There will be no screen
ings on Saturday or March 20).
