Must I use DISTINCT?

Please consider the following SQL
 SELECT e.eid, e.name FROM entry e, access a WHERE e.eid = 120 AND (e.ownid = 66 OR e.aid = a.aid)

The intent is to match one entry with the eid of 120. However I would
like to impose an additional constraint that either e.ownid must be 66
or e.aid must match the aid of an entry in the access table (there's
actually a lot more to the query but I think this should be sufficient
to illustrate my problem).

The problem is that the e.ownid is 66 and therefore the same entry is
returned for each access entry.

Of course I can simply SELECT DISTINCT but that seems like an improper
usage of DISTINCT here.

Is there an alternative way to write this query? I only want to select
from the access table for the purpose of constraining by aid.
