Playboy August 1985

COVER STORY First she appeared as our April 1984 cover girl, then Kathy Shower reigned as Miss May 1985, so this month's cover—produced by Associate Photo Editor Michael Ann Sullivan and shot by Contributing Photographer Stephen Wayda makes Kathy a -tr.iple treat. Now for a shower of credits to Pat Tomlin-son's make-up, John Victor's hair styling, Perry/Hollister of Chicago's body suit, Phillip Cantrell's cuff bracelet and Flashy Trash of Chicago's earrings. 5 PLAYBILL 13 DEAR PLAYBOY 17 PLAYBOY AFTER HOURS 37 SPORTS BY DAN JENKINS 39 MEN BY ASA BABER 41 WOMEN BY CYNTHIA HEIMEL 43 AGAINST THE WIND CRAIG VETTER 47 THE PLAYBOY ADVISOR 49 DEAR PLAYMATES 51 THE PLAYBOY FORUM 57 PLAYBOY INTERVIEW: FIDEL CASTRO—candid conversation 72 HOT SECRETS—article DAVID BLACK 77 THE PUNCH IN JUDY NORTON TAYLOR—pictorial 82 THE CLOWNS—fiction.
