Some homework and home early—leaving Camp D. at 1:20—threat of thunderstorms. Tonite 8 P.M. to big program on AIDS—Elizabeth Taylor in charge. I address group before dinner & then we leave. Well I addressed them in a tent. Well received until I mentioned routine testing for AIDS. A block of the Gay community in the tent booed me enthusiastically. All in all though I was pleased with the whole affair.
