ANN LANDERS Saféty Responsibility Rests Dear Ann Landers; We have "seat belts in our car and use them faithfully A relative who *lives near us is 2. frequent pas- 'senger. We first hinted, then 'suggested, and later pleaded {with her to use the seat belt but ¢the refuses. Why? I wish you "would ask her. All she will tell 'us is that she would rather not. We feel morally responsible "tor those who ride in our car. vAccording to the law we are 'responsible. How far should we «go with a person who refuses to protect herself at the expense 'of our peace of mind?--Irritated * Dear Irritated: Since it is "your car and your responsibil- ity you have the right to go as 'far as you wish--like the limit. Tell the relative that you will "not allow her to be a passenger tin your car unless she agrees to «use the seat belt. And make it 'stick. > . Dear Ann Landers: I am a '17-year-old-girl who needs your *help badly. When I was 13 tyears old my mother took me «into her bedroom, shut the door tand told me a long, weird story sabout her past. She said she *was a bad girl and described ther love affair with another *man who didn't marry her. I 'was the result of that illicit relationship. } About a year later she told *me the same story, changing *some facts and adding some - intimate details. This past year «she has repeated the story four 'times. Every time she tells -it * she makes it more like a chap- "ter in a trashy love magazine. Now I am beginning to suspect that she imagined the whole ' ig. The man I thought was my : father died when I was 11 years old. I loved him very much. I wish mother had let me go on With Car Owner stead of planting these seeds of thic?__Verdad???? to me as if your mother is not well. She may indeed have imagined the whole thing. If this were fact--and not fantasy --I don't think your mother would enjoy reciting the details, and surely she would not be changing them. Dear Ann Landers: I guess if I had the courage to tell her to her face I would do it, but like thousands of others I am writ- ing to you in the hope that the guilty party will read your col- umn, recognize herself and straighten around. My roommate and I are both career girls in our middle 20s, and far from stupid. Am I crazy clean, a fuss-budget or a frus- trated old maid? It drives me wild when my roommate leaves a ring around the bathtub, cab- inet doors at right angles, ice trays in the sink, underwear on the door knobs, cigarette butts in the ash trays overnight, and towels on the bathroom floor. "Roomie" is a swell person and we get along fine on every other score but when it comes to personal habits she's a pig. I would appreciate advice on how to improve the situation.-- Legal Secretary Dear Legal Secretary: The pig is not going to change, so forget about that miracle. You can do one of two things: A. Figure that the 'positive aspects of the relationship com- pensate for her slobbishness and that she is worth cleaning up after. B. Part company and find a roomie whose personal habits are more like your own -- but count on putting up with other traits which you will find diffi- : believing he was my father in- cult to tolerate.

This applied to any piece of machinery, the human body being the most complex, In this day of the sedentary society, it presented a dismal picture of what the human race |could become. AVOIDING DRAFT In the United States, men wishing to avoid the draft use lack of physical fitness as a way out; children were failing to pass the most minimal tests; and the use of modern conveni- ences had eliminated so many of the manual chores. There was no water to pump, the washing machine was complete- ly automatic, gas and electricity had done away with chopping wood "However," Miss Hill con- tinued,"' it is interesting to note that experts believe women to be more generally fit due to} their varied chores than the men prere. hence the difference in the longevity scale. With Government support, programs were being peddled to the public with little thought of purpose or function but as with children, they kept people off the street and busy. | The reason for this was be- cause the term fitness was so hard to define. Many consulta- tions had been held and all found it difficult to arrive at a conclusive definition. FACTORS OF FITNESS Physical educators and physi- ologists knew and were con- stantly studying factors which related to physical fitness and found contributing aspects were normal growth and develop- ment; organic soundness; resis- tance to disease; the condition of the vital organs especially coronary heart ailments; motor conditions such as balance, agil- ity, speed, flexibility, power, strength, and endurance.

This was brought out at the convention on physical fitness held this past at Geneva Park, led Bonnie Pruden who claimed that under every curve there was a muscle.
