...another 5-to-4 decision, the court ruled last week that states and local governments may ban nude dancers in bars and other adults-only establishments. The decision was narrow in its effects -- G-strings and pasties make the dancing O.K. under the Indiana ban -- but Rehnquist's defense of the law may open the way to other stricter laws governing sexual conduct...

The women, billed at one club as "Gorby's Girls," say they were kept as virtual prisoners in a locked apartment during the day. Eventually, a bar patron learned of the group's plight and called police. While the Soviet strippers face deportation, local...
