Pee-Wee Herman Awards

By DAVID ELLIS

The Saturday-morning-TV star's arrest in a Florida porno-movie theater is reminiscent of some other famous figures who have been caught in shamemaking situations:

NAKED HOLLYWOOD. Rob Lowe's X-rated cavorting in an Atlanta hotel room became his greatest starring role and provided yet another reason for the Democrats to forget the 1988 convention.

A SHINING EXAMPLE. Doug Danziger, Fort Lauderdale's conservative vice mayor who has crusaded against college students on spring break, topless bars and adult bookstores, resigned last week after his name allegedly turned up on the client list of a woman who says she tried to cure her nymphomania by having sex with different men.

THE ROYAL STUD (I). Major Ronald Ferguson, the father of the Duchess of York ("Fergie") and a polo-playing chum of Prince Charles' was revealed to be a loyal member of a London "health" club specializing in massage and sex.

THE ROYAL STUD (II). Fergie's husband Prince Andrew received some unwelcome publicity four weeks ago when a 1983 full-frontal nude photo snapped by a friend was published in an English tabloid.

LOW AND OUTSIDE. New York Yankees superstar Don Mattingly was arrested for indecent conduct in 1985 for urinating in public after leaving a Kansas City restaurant. Two days later police hauled in Mattingly's teammate Dale Berra for doing the same thing in the same area.

DANNY'S BOY. Last month former Partridge Family star Danny Bonaduce agreed to a plea-bargain arrangement on charges that he beat and robbed Darius Barney, a Phoenix transvestite prostitute, after a sex act. Bonaduce must pay up to $3,000 in medical costs for the victim's reconstructive surgery.
