In this early issue, the GHC reflects on its accomplishments and shortcomings in the year 1982, and asks members to submit ideas about what they would like to see in 1983. The group states its intention to transition from a primarily social group to one involved in international issues. The issue includes a section about possibly joining an archival effort with the Lesbian and Gay Archives of Texas, as well as details about activities of interest to members. The newsletter ends with a love poem in Spanish, accompanied by a drawing of two men in a loving embrace.

Gay Latino Archives
The Lesbian and Gay Archies of Texas, a member of IG/Inc., has expressed interest I collected the publications from the Latino segment of our gay community. Right now GHC is overrun with reference materials, letters, magazines, etc., and we have limited resources to care for them properly. Therefore, we have been planning to gradually transfer many of these to the Archives, including photographs of our activities, However, the Archives needs help in cataloging these and other materiales. The Latinos Unidos of Los Angeles are undertaking a similar project with the Natalie Barney/Edward Carpenter Library of the National Gay Archives. They have contacted us for help. We would lie to promote both goals. Collect your ideas on how this can be accomplished for discussion at the January meeting (third Thursday).

¡FELIZ NAVIDAD!
