We are asking that local businesses join us in our efforts to help find missing children, and to rescue exploited children. Each month, beginning in May, each Phoenix staff member will sponsor a missing child. The more sponsors we are able to obtain, the more photographs we can display. Over 1 million kids are missing in the United States. These children constitute our most vulnerable social group and are one of society’s most ignored problems. Our goal is to assist major organizations with their efforts to help return abducted, runaway and missing children to their homes, using photographs and biographical/statistical information on the child. It’s time to educate our children and parents on the problem and help solve it. To receive information regarding our program, please call AC Phoenix @ 727-1171. To help sponsor the “Missing Children” Section, call our offices during regular office hours, and we will get you signed up! The AC Phoenix will be utilizing information obtained through the National Registry for Missing and Exploited Children and some information will come from Missing Kids International, Inc.

Photo/Lmda R Chen ^ wentieth Century Fox presents An Atman Entertain ment/Fred Berner Films Production, A Reginald Hudlin Film, Samuel L. Jackson, THE GREAT WHITE HYPE, starring Da mon Wayans, Jamie Foxx, Jeff Goldblum, Peter Berg, Jon Lovitz, Corbin Bemsen, and Cheech Marin. About The movie: Hudlin says, “this is not just a movie about boxing; it’s a movie about power andJiow power is exer cised in America.” THE GREAT WHITE HYPE was filmed in Los Angeles and, of course, Las Vegas. The production traveled to “Sin City” just a few days prior to the infamous Mike Tyson/Peter McNeely fight — a real life version of a black chal lenger facing a “Great White Hope.” In “reel life,” THE GREAT WHITE HYPE turns the fight game inside-out and on it’s head. To accomplish this formidable task, the production focused on taking a comedic but realistic look at the hype, glamour and brutality of boxing both inside and outside the ring. Every effort was made to capture this incredible world, from the beautiful ring card girls, raucous press corps, to the back room dealings and intensive trainings. With a cast consisting of many well-known actors, the film utilizes pugilism as a metaphor to describe the morals, or lack there of, in sports and simple, everyday life.
