W. Dorr Legg; Founder of Gay Support Group ONE

W. Dorr Legg, 89, founder of ONE, Inc., among the oldest gay and lesbian support organizations in the country. The group, with headquarters on Country Club Drive in West Los Angeles, offers therapy, counseling and referrals to the gay community. It also provides educational and job placement programs, one of a very few umbrella organizations for gays when it first started in the early 1950s. When Legg and others wanted to publicize ONE by starting a national magazine, they had to take the Postal Service to court because the U.S. mail refused to handle it because of content. Legg was a landscape architect and musician who had never been politically active until he founded ONE. In Los Angeles on Tuesday.
