Hedi and Arnold
Chapter 8 by Lacy H. Rich, Jr. 213-851-6585
Today, March 27, 1995, I predict the shocking revelations, that
Hedi talked about on her way into court last Friday, are about Arnold. I=
predict, Hedi will reveal Arnold was her biggest clients. I predict, sh=
e
will also reveal that Arnold introduced her to many of the politicians he=
met, while he was Chairman of the Presidents Council on Physical Fitness=
,
and they used her services. I predict a major republican sex scandal. I=
predict, the investors of box office bomb , =93Last Action Hero=94 will f=
ind
they paid for services of Hedi and her Girls, and they won=92t be happy
about it. I predict that the Feds will introduce into evidence against
her, the checks that Arnold and his politician pals wrote to her. I
predict Hedi is going to keep her promise and tell all, if the good old
boys are not able to keep her out of jail. =

Muscle Mag International published a thinly veiled threat not only
at me but Tom Minchello.
At the premiere of Pumping Iron, Tom Minchello had a friend
named Margie, who wanted to make it with Arnold. Tom told Margie Arnie=92=
s
room number. She went to the suite and knocked on the door. The door
opened to a darkened room. Margie could see that a light was on in the
bedroom and she could hear moans. She crept to the other door . What
does she see; Nothing, but Charles Gaines (author of Pumping Iron & Stay=
Hungry) and the great Austrian oak with his heels spread to Jesus. She
quickly backed up and hurriedly left. By the time she reach the lobby sh=
e
was in hysterics telling everyone that Arnold was upstairs being f$$ked b=
y
a man. I guess that taught Arnie to lock the door.
After his ill fated attempt at car stealing and exporting, Arnold
had to return to his old trade of hustling the fags. Even in Germany whe=
n
he trained six days a week he had kindly older men to take care of his
money needs on the seventh day. When he got to London he met Mr. R. (Joh=
n
Dixie) from Wendy Leigh=92s book. Dixie set him up with people like John=
Paul Getty who had a front row seat to see Arnold win the Mr. Universe.
In New York, Arnold met lots of tricks through Mid-City Gym (the
male whore house of the east). Better yet he had gay pimp, Roy Brooks t=
o
set him up with the guys with real money. Roy started off asking $300 an=
hour but when you called Arnie he would say =93I=92m busy but if you have=
a
$1,000 I=92ll see you=94. Then he would take all this tax free loot bac=
k to
LA and invest in real-estate. Arnold wants to be the west coast Donald
Trump.
In Venice, Arnie trained and tricked out of Ken Sprauge=92s Gym. =
There he was right at home. All the Weider stars and would be stars
trained and got tanned there. Few had jobs and many had sugar daddies to=
take care of their every whim (apartments, cars, etc.). They even had a
picture book of the body builders at the desk so that clients could take=
a look and get a price quote.
Merv Griffin gave Arnold his first TV break by having him on his
talk show. Merv gets drunk now and brags to his friends and new tricks
that Arnie cost him $25,000 a lay. Was it worth it Merv?

Chapter 7 =
by Lacy H. Rich, Jr. 213 851-6585
In 1968, Joe Weider thought he had died and gone to heaven. He
had found a replacement for Larry Scott, that wasn=92t as dumb as a door
post or black, that he could mold into his greatest superstar. Joe had
just arrived in Hollywood, after leaving New Jersey in order to avoid
going to jail for publishing his teen magazines. Joe had quickly married=
a =93New York dancer=94 (=93Betty Blossom=94) so that he could say =93I=92=
m not gay,
I=92ve got a wife=94. Later, according to one of his secretaries, to kee=
p
this shield, he would sign over to her, his multi-million dollar home in
Hancock Park, and his office Building in Woodland Hills, everything else
went into brother Ben=92s name.
=93She raises the rent every six months and harasses him
constantly, calling all the time. Sometimes he looks like he is going
have a stroke. Would you believe, she even paid the servants to listen
in on his phone calls, so when Betty went to Lake Tahoe, Joe had
Private lines put in all the rooms. The maid called her and then she =
called me, but Joe wouldn=92t take the call and she stayed on hold for 7
hours. Would you believe he bought Diane a diamond bracelet and the
jeweler sent the bill to his house so I had to go down and pay him off. =
Betty doesn=92t mind him playing around, as much as she doesn=92t like =
him
spending money on them." =
Joe=92s
former secretary
=
When I asked Joe about the things that Stephanie told me, he said
she had mental problems. When I asked Joe about things that Bill Reynold=
s
was saying about him and why he did not fire him, Joe claimed that he had=
mental problems as a result of Vietnam. When I first started speaking ou=
t
about all the wrong doing, Bill Reynolds (editor in chief of Flex
magazine) came by and said that he wanted to help and would bring me a lo=
t
of evidence to back it up. He also said that if he died it would not be
an accident. A couple of weeks later, he was dead, supposedly a drug
overdose. It seems to be Joe=92s standard operating procedure to say tha=
t
anyone, who says anything Joe doesn=92t like, has mental problems. That =
is
what he is saying about me now, not that I am wrong, but am disturbed. =
If he keeps it up, he is going to get a chance to prove it in court, sinc=
e
I don=92t do drugs or ride a motorcycle like the lawyer (killed in an
accident) that kept suing Joe on behalf of body builders, who had
contracts broken by Joe.
From Europe, along with Arnold, came steroids. American athletes
were virtually ignorant of steroids until Arnie showed up. Steroids were=
developed by the Germans to help their solider during W.W.II. Arnold was=
an expert compared to our guys. The brought them here, gave them, sold
them and taught all his buddies in Venice to use them. From the body
building community of Venice they spread through out sports in this
country. But, Arnold claims now that he only experimented a little. Thi=
s
is like the Pope saying that he is a little Catholic. Ron Reagan had
Arnie=92s pal and former Mr. Universe, the reverend Dennis Tinerino, on h=
is
T. V. show. Reverend Tinerino said, all the body builders started taking=
steroid in 1968 because the Europeans that came her were all using them. =
What he forgot to mention was, there were only two European body builders=
that came here in 1968, Arnold and Franco. Isn=92t it grand that a minis=
ter
nails Arnold on national T. V., but sad that few realized it? Ron did
have the courage to say that Arnold had kidney problems that might be
related to his use of steroids. We all saw Arnold, former Chairman of th=
e
President=92s Council on Physical Fitness, smoking pot in =93Pumping Iron=
,"
but I guess he didn=92t inhale. To be fair to Arnold, his pal, Dennis, on=
ly
became a minister after spending time in prison for running prostitution
in Hollywood for the mob. God certainly was not with Dennis, when he
tried to set a record for picking up bricks on =93That=92s Incredible." =
He
dropped the bricks just as he spilled the beans on Arnie.
In the beginning, if you wanted to get big, and what body builder
didn=92t, you had to be Arnie=92s pal, because that was the only way to =
get
steroids. Everybody knocked themselves out to be on Arnold=92s side so t=
hey
could get roids. That is the beginning of Arnold=92s so called charisma a=
nd
his becoming top dog in the pecking order. Arnold quickly found an ally
in Dr. Walzack (a gay doctor and body building judge), who conducted
steroid experiments and obtained steroids through medical channels. =
Walzack got to have sex with Arnold and many of his pals for supplying
steroids and other medical services. Walzack later lost Arnold=92s favor=
when Arnold learned that he was showing films of Arnold in his pool and b=
y
his pool pulling his trunks down and mooning the camera, to every new bod=
y
builder on the scene. Walzack was so brazen that he showed the film to a
friend of mine and his wife, and then asked the wife if she wouldn=92t li=
ke
a new car. Walzack found that by proving his friendship with Arnold he
could more easily persuade the body builder to put out. More importantly=
,
Arnold did not like Walzack=92s claims that Arnold would not be =93Arnold=
=94
without him. Also, Walzack was also believed to be responsible for
damaging somebody builders by over prescribing thyroid. Over the years
many have told me that Walzack almost forced thyroid (not an anabolic
steroid) on them. Rick Wayne (former editor in chief of Joe Weider=92s
Muscle & Fitness) published a photo of Arnold and Walzack standing
together backstage at a body building contest in his book =93Muscle Wars=94=
=2E
Steroids would not be a public issue at all were it not for the
cold war. The U. S. Sports community did not like the fact that the
Russians and Warsaw pact countries were winning so many medals in the
Olympics. Unfortunately many believe that winning is an expression of =
being right and having God=92s favor. When women=92s team of eastern
countries started beating our gals they cried foul, they must be men in
drag and demanded sex test. Chromosome tests became big news in sports. =
God protect us from Ivan in pumps and pearls. With the jock straps and
bras clearly defined and our loses still mounting we looked for a new way=
to prove God still wears stars and stripes. We had to prove they were
cheating. Somebody discovered that that German scientist had given them =
a new weapon STEROIDS.
The dye was cast. The money bags behind American sports were
going to stop those horrible thieving communists from stealing our gold
medals. They demanded that the IOC (International Olympic Committee) pu=
t
a stop to the use of steroids in the Olympics. They wanted steroid
testing. Since, the U. S. foots the bill for much of the Olympics they
couldn=92t be ignored, but horror of horrors our guys and gals were usin=
g
too. What to do, their roids were government backed and better than
ours. The IOC said that if you want to stop the communist you have to
stop using yourself. Along comes Ben Weider (President for Life of the
IFBB, Da, Da) between meetings with dictators around the world, looking t=
o
get body building into the Olympics. According to my friend Ben, Juan
Antonio Samaranch, head of the IOC suggested to Ben, that if he wanted to=
be taken seriously, get steroids outlawed in the U. S.. Ben Weider=92s
IFBB (International Federation of Body Building) is headquarters in
Canada. Ben and Joe are Canadians, but their holdings in the U. S. are
worth hundreds of Millions. A real empire built on pictures nude teenage=
boys.
Safely across the border, Ben runs the IFBB without the scrutiny
of the United States Government. Do you think the Canadian government
knew of his company=92s teen magazines when they awarded him the Medal of=
Canada (Canada=92s highest civilian award)? How do you get something
outlawed without scientific proof that it is harmful? With lots of money=
and a lot of lies. You get Arnold=92s former training partner, porno sta=
r,
and professional wrestler Rick Dreysen to go on TV and tell how roids
destroyed his kidney, even though he had told his friends that the kidney=
never developed from birth. You get all kinds of stories in the press
about teenagers killing themselves after using roids. The Weiders reall=
y
know how to use those teens. You ignore all the scientist who say =93we
don=92t know yet=94, =93that=92s ridiculous=94, or it=92s really great st=
uff as
=93Scientific America=94 did recently, now that the cold war is over. Yo=
u
count on the American press being lazy and not checking the facts or the
facts being twisted to suite their employer=92s agenda.
Best of all, you buy a law. Just move much of your business to
Utah to get Orrin Hatch=92s attention. When you employee thousands of
people in Utah, you have Hatch=92s attention. Then you hire one of Hatch=
=92s
aids to be your full time lobbyist, as Ben did. You get Hatch to get his=
buddy, Joe Biden, (you know the guy that steals speeches) to make a speec=
h
against roids on the floor of the Senate. Unfortunately, Biden was so
ignorant of the subject that he kept saying antibiotic steroids instead o=
f
anabolic steroids, but then the other senators didn=92t know anything
either. Ben even frosted the cake by giving the Senate a fully equipped
gym. Then you give Hatch an award and have Arnold fly him to and from =
the ceremony in the jet he bought with his financial empire built on tax
free prostitution earnings. God help us!! Hatch even stopped the FDA
from controlling certain vitamins even though he Hatch owns interests in
four vitamin companies. If the DEA can=92t get a body count to justify
their paychecks from coke and crank dealers, send the agents to the gyms
to bag spandex clad muscle heads. In the mean time Joe has =93Doctor Squ=
at=94
Fred Hatifield passing out the roids to Weider superstars in brown paper
bags. Joe also has staff members pumping him up with injectables in his
private powder room, but he will swear on a stack of Bibles he never
touched the stuff. =
From the very interesting department. According to Fairfax
Hackley, former IFBB official, the FBI has a tap on all my phones and I a=
m
to be arrested on an extortion charge. This is the same man that said in=
1992 the government was going to have me killed to shut me up. I am stil=
l
alive and haven=92t ask them for a dime. I even invited Joe Weider to ha=
ve
dinner with me last week so he could point out any mistakes in fact, if
any. He did not answer. I never could picture Arnold going to the
president and saying =93this guys is calling me a prostitute, please have=
the CIA kill him=94. So much for the BAD GUYS! More to come!

Arnold, Chairman of the President=92s Council On Physical Fitness
by Lacy H. Rich, Jr. (213) 851-6585
It still boggles my mind, that Arnold Schwarzenegger was =
appointed by George Bush to the council. Even if you forget, his
involvement with Paul Graham, his hustling, his record in sports is
dubious at best. When I heard about the possibility of the appointment, =
I
called the White House and spoke to a woman who said she was responsible
for checking out appointees. I advised her of his past and asked her to=
send the FBI or anyone else to check it. No one checked anything. Is it=
any wonder that the Soviets were able to get all our nuclear secrets?
I accuse Arnold Schwarzenegger of rigging body building contests,
specifically the 1980 Mr. Olympia. =
In his book =93Muscle Wars=94, Rick Wayne, former editor of Joe
Weider=92s =93Muscle & Fitness=94 writes that on the way out of the Sydne=
y Opera
House after the contest Marie stopped to talk to the press. Arnold
shouted =93come on Bitch, they will forget about this and I will still be=
=93Mr. Olympia=94 seven times. Well I haven=92t forgotten. Even Arnie h=
as
acknowledged his mistake. When asked in Germany by a friend, why he did
not enter the Olympia there, Arnie responded =93I think I went to that w=
ell
once to often=94.
Arnold portrays himself as supremely confident and self assured,
but in truth he is anything but. His two biggest mistakes, =93After Dar=
k=94
and the =9380 Olympia=94 were results of his fear that his movies (Pumpin=
g
Iron and Conan) would not do well. He did the =93After Dark=94 article w=
ith
nude to get publicity for =93Pumping Iron=94. His PR firm has claimed, h=
e had
nothing to do with nude being in the article, but the magazines managing=
editor Patrick Pacheco says different. At the same time Parker Public
Relations said that Arnold didn=92t do nudes except for Scavullo and the=
y
were locked in a vault. Well, I think I proved somebody lied about that,=
with the nude I gave to =93Spy=94.
The second mistake which brought me into this story was the fixing
of the 1980 Olympia to gain more publicity for the then pending release o=
f
Conan. As we saw in Pumping Iron, Arnold retired form body building
competition with the 1975 win of his sixth straight Mr. Olympia. In 1976=
Franco Columbo won. In 77, 78, and 79 Frank Zane won. Mike Mentzer
entered the picture in 1978 with a win of the Mr. Universe with the first=
perfect score of 300 in the history of the Mr. Universe. Mentzer placed=
2nd to Zane in the 79 Olympia. Many felt that Mike should have beaten
Zane in 79, but the judges were just not willing to let some one win on
their first time out. There was a lot of controversy that year about
Mentzer and Zane that centered on symmetry and mass and just what defined=
a body builder. Most felt that Zane was just to small to be the ideal
body builder despite his symmetry and muscular definition. Compared to
most other competitors of the time, Zane was a twig. Mentzer=92s type o=
f
mass, definition, symmetry was were sport wanted to go, and has gone
since. Mentzer was expected to win the 80 signaling a change back to the=
bigger guys like Arnold.
The other factor that ticked Arnold off was that Mentzer brought
a different style of training to body building call =93heavy duty=94 whic=
h is
followed by and used by the current Mr. Olympia, Dorian Yates. =93Heavy
duty=94 training was the opposite of Arnold=92s methods. Weider was givi=
ng
Mentzer as much or more coverage as Arnold in his heyday and had tried to=
claim =93heavy duty=94 as his own by having Mike rewrite the Weider Princ=
iples
based on his methods. Herr Schwarzenegger just could take having to
defend his all day method of training with Mentzer=92s 45 minutes a day. =
Mike was eclipsing him in the body building spotlight. The truth is bot=
h
work if you have the genetics to be a champ. If brains had been a
requirement of Ken Sprague=92s male whore house on Second Street in Santa=
Monica, Arnold would never have been Arnold. Mentzer didn=92t realize i=
t
at the time, but he had made body builders start thinking seriously about=
training and they began to challenge the messages of =93Pumping Iron=94. =
Mike
came after Arnie=92s heyday and did not bow and scrape like the others. =
Intolerable!!!
Arnold had a three year contract with CBS to do color commentary
for the Mr. Olympia, and in 79 Arnold asked Zane if it felt great to win.=
=
Frank replied =93almost as good as beating you=94, a reference to his win=
over
Arnold the Mr. Universe. Intolerable!!! Arnie did not have the clout
then to have it cut, and it was broadcast to the world.
Arnold arranged for his partner in crime Paul Maxwell Graham, you
know the convicted car thief who was deported to Australia, to promote th=
e
1980 Olympia in Sydney. Of course Arnold would be there with CBS to tape=
the show. With Conan=92s release coming up Arnold decided come out of
retirement and enter himself. Arnold later claimed it was a last minute
decision to enter, he had been training for Conan and was in shape. If
you believe that one, look at the two Conan movies. The first which he
supposedly prepared him for the 80 Olympia shows him as big and soft like=
a larva. In the second done a few years later, Arnie is much harder
looking like a body builder is suppose to be. In truth, the only reason
Arnold got into that kind of shape. is that Lou Ferrigno embarrassed him
by the dazzling shape he showed up in, in the cheapy Italian Hercules
movies.
In Sydney, Paul Graham had a documentary film company making a
supposed sequel to =93Pumping Iron=94 called =93The Comeback=94. If Arno=
ld only
decided a week before to enter the contest how do you make a movie about
it? That is the Question that has never been answered. They now sell the=
film in Europe and Australia as =93Total Rebuilt=94, but you can not find=
it
in the U. S.. What a mess, after the show the only one of the contestant=
s
would sign the release to use footage of himself. The rest banded
together and refused to sign in protest. In the original that I have a
copy , they replaced the booing at the end with cheering. That is why
Arnold didn=92t want to talk to the press after the show. All that booin=
g
was embarrassing, hence come on bitch. Arnold could not deny Paul a
chance to recoup his investment but no showing or selling in the US.
CBS ( Sherman Egan) realized that the show was fixed and canceled
plans to show their coverage. Not only that, they paid Arnold off for hi=
s
contract for 80 and 81 and dropped coverage of future contests.
How was it fixed? The judges, were all personal friends or
business associates of Arnold=92s. Mits Kawashima was a real-estate part=
ner
in Hawaii, another was the manager of Paul Graham Gym, Dan Howard owned=
a World=92s Gym, Albert Busek =93discovered=94 Arnold in Germany, and, R=
eg Park
from South Africa owed Arnold. The only one that didn=92t was Head Judge=
Bill Pearl who actually had the guts to call it fixed and told Sherman
Egan.
Rick Wayne covers the contest in =93Muscle Wars=94, but even he did
not have the guts to tell the whole story.
Mike Mentzer, who was 2nd in 79, was placed 5th. The message was
clear. You may have all the coverage in the Weider Mags, but I control
the judges, screw you. Mike not being a dummy knew what it meant and
retired from competition, but was not afraid to talk about Australia. =
Ben Weider had believed that it was Mike that caused CBS to pull out of
body building and started pressuring his brother Joe to get rid of Mike. =
Joe resisted a first, but with Mike being out of competition he was less
valuable. Mike finally got tired of being jerked around by the Weider=92=
s
and quit. Mike, after loosing his home and everything else, turned to
speed to escape from the reality of what had happened. For a while he wa=
s
a street person , in jail, or mental hospital. When Arnold was told of
the damage he had caused, Arnie said that if Mike was no stronger than
that, he deserved it.
LacyR
Arnold and Paul Maxwell Graham have been buddies for years. Two
days after Arnie got his first apartment in LA, Arnie invited a writer to=
his place to see the proof that the Weiders had rigged the contest in
which Frank Zane had beaten him. Paul popped out of the bedroom just
after their arrival wearing only his underpants. Arnold complained that
all the contestants had to wear a medallion out on stage with Zane=92s
picture on it. The writer had to admit it was Frank=92s body on the
medallion right down to the vein on his arm. The writer however,
concluded from looking at the pictures, that Zane deserved to win
because, =93Arnold was just plain fat=94. Arnold could only see that he=
was
bigger than Zane.
With in months, Arnie was tearing down the highway with Paul in
pursuit. A squeal of brakes, a crash, and a dazed Arnie hauls himself ou=
t
of the car. Paul announces to the witnesses that he is taking Arnold to
the hospital, and hurriedly leaves the scene of the accident. Shortly
after, the police arrived and identified the car as a stolen vehicle. =
According to Bill Dreke, Arnold=92s long time buddy, several days later o=
ur
Germanic Super Hero and Paul fled to Hawaii. A federal warrant was issue=
d
for Paul=92s arrest on 1/29/69.
In Honolulu Hawaii, FBI agent Edwin Miller and his partner flanked
the motel door, and then with a kick, the door flies open. There stands
Paul Graham posing stark naked for Arnie who is laying on the bed wearing=
only his underpants. Paul and Arnie are cuffed and taken out of the room=
=2E
Our usually cool under pressure hero is very upset, the feds refuse to
let him take his little blue pills with him. According to agent Miller,
the pills were found to be the anabolic steroid, Dianabol. For Gods sake=
Arnold, tell us that beautiful body was only the result of hard work,
determination and your humble, but strict upbringing.
In the lock up, Paul admitted everything, but swore that Arnold
had no knowledge of the car being stolen. The FBI being only interested
in the Federal Laws that were violated did not press the issue, because
this was up to the state of California. On Feb. 11, 1969 Paul asked for=
and received a Rule 20. This Rule 20 transferred the case #3285cd to
Hawaii Federal Court from the Central District of California for the sole=
purpose of pleading guilty. The Grand Jury indictment was filed Feb. 5,=
1969, charging Paul with 18 U. S. C. #2312, Foreign Transportation
of=3DStolen Motor Vehicle. The indictment charged that on or about Decem=
ber
23, 1968, Paul shipped a 1965 Mustang and an 1966 Mustang to Sydney,
Australia. On April 10, 1969 Paul was sentenced to 3 years, and on Apri=
l
25, 1969 was delivered to Terminal Island , California. On Feb. 16, 197=
1
after less that 2 years, Paul Maxwell Graham was paroled, and deported t=
o
Australia. Under U. S. Law Paul is not allowed to return to the U. S. Bu=
t
that has not stopped him. I personally was on the same flight from Las
Vegas with Paul and the Australian body building team in 1984.
California, feeling that Arnold was to small a fish to go to the
expense of extraditing from Hawaii, did not pursue any State charges
against him, knowing that Paul would swear that Arnie did not know the ca=
r
was stolen. Bill Dreke claims, Arnold not only knew, but was the look
out for the thief=92s.
Arnold visited Paul regularly and provided money to make his life
comfortable. In the movie =93Pumping Iron=94 we see Arnold posing there =
for
the inmates, but they never explained how Arnie became connected with th=
e
joint. One inmate even asked for a kiss. I can hear the Church Lady
saying =93 Isn=92t that special=94. =
After Paul got out of prison he was rewarded by the Weider
brothers for protecting Arnold, by being given the Weider distributorshi=
p
and from the IFBB a position as Vice President in charge of Oceania
(Australia, New Zealand, and a bunch of Islands in the south pacific). I=
n
the two years that Paul was in jail, Joe Weider had made Arnie the center=
piece of his body building magazines. They had to protect their
investment from scandal. Crime really did pay, and pay big. In 1980
Arnold gave the Mr. Olympia Contest to Paul to Promote. This contest is =
a
story in itself and will come later. Of course Ben Weider will tell you=
that he did not know of his prison record until I told him, but Paul
still rules Body Building in Australia.
If you want a gander at Paul rent =93The Pirate Movie=94, he is the aging=
flabby body builder in the pirate crew.
On the plane coming back from Las Vegas, I found myself surrounded by the=
Australian team in coach class. Paul was traveling first class. I asked=
them if Paul was as big a crook in Australia as we hear he is. Suddenly =
I
had four large hands clamped across my mouth with a whispered =93Yes , bu=
t
shut up he might hear you=94. I couldn=92t believe these big guys were t=
hat
afraid of that old man. After we got to LA they called me from there
Hotel and I took them on a tour of Hollywood. Boy did I get an ear full
of how Paul claims that Arnold owes him his career because he kept his
mouth shut and took the rap alone.
