UNDER 21 A column lor teen-agers By Dan Halligan HERE AND THERE IN BUSINESS Jack I. Boone, 310 Richmond road, was among those individuals attending the second Ward management clinic at Kings Gap, Pa. A tour of a mill and a panel discussion by carpet experts were among other features of the clinic. DEAR READERS: I recently returned from nearly a month's speaking tour during which I spoke to thousands of junior and senior high school students from Canada's province of. Manitoba down through the middle of the United States into Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas. \ I really enjoyed myself and enjoyed meeting all you teen-agers. For anyone interested, I can say factually that young people have the same problems and questions wherever they live. I hope the visit was beneficial from the standpoint you young readers were able to discover that I'm just an ordinary guy trying his best to help you. In some cities I talked at as many as five high schools in one day and answered questions for as much as 90 minutes without a let-up. Most of the hundreds and hundreds of questions I was asked were typical of teen-agers and if I didn't answer to "your" satisfaction, at least you did receive an answer. I hope to vi^it other areas of the country in the coming months and at that time, perhaps we'll meet. For those of you who did meet me, I enjoyed our little sessions and thank you for your courtesy. DEAR DAN: My sister is 17 and likes a boy of the same age. I'm 14 and like this boy's brother who also is 14. What do you think of us double-dating once in a while, especially since the boys are brothers? -- Miss R. DEAR MISS R.: I think your sister wouldn't appreciate you coming along on dates but if she wouldn't mind, there's no harm in doubling. I personally don't think a girl of. 14 should be dating but if you have your parents' permission, you've probably got authority enough. DEAR ADULT READERS: Several critical letters have come to me because of a recent column in which a boy and a girl discussed losing control of themselves. As it's held true since the first newspaper was published, most of you critics didn't have the courage to sign your names. Thus, the letters were thrown in the trash heap. I would like to say, however, "Under 21" works with young people for their overall benefit and you readers who were offended because of that column, all I can say is that you'd better open your eyes. Boys and girls necking, petting and losing control of themselves in cars^and elsewhere are all-too common problems today and--aiS" long as I believe I can help set some Of the young people straight by discussing in a ffank manner these problems, I'll continue to do so. I would rather offend you anonymous writers and know some kids are benefitting than to ignore these very serious situations and please you. I've been working with teen-agers for 10 years', including four years as the author of "Under 21" and believe me, I know what the kids are up against these days. If mbre adults woke up to what's going on around them in/their own communities, I would receive fewer letters. You critics know all to well that in your own communities teen-ager*; are buying beer and booze and "girlie" magazines. Before you "do-gooders" criticize me for my efforts, you'd better cleahxout your own closets. They're filthy. You know it and I knowjt.

BOY SCOUTS •; * "t VACCINATION URGED 1" All non-vaccinated persons are urged by the Illinois Department of Public Health to avail themselves of the protection afforded by polio vaccine. Live virus will not be available this year, according to Dr. L. L. Fatherree. The safety and effectiveness of the "killed virus" vaccine have been demonstrated, and no better results can be expected of it or any vaccine unless, it is fully used by the rion-vaccinated population, he said. A booster dose of polio vaccine may be recommended for individuals who received their last injection of primary immunization a year ago, Dr. Fatherree advised. The number of i>orsons in the state still not immunized or not completely immunized, is sufficient to permit polio to strike in a l a r m i n g p r o p o r t i o n s , he warned. "There is little point ^n developing preventives for diseases if they are not used to full individual and public protection," Dr. Fatherree said. p 163 A lastj^oiinder to all ScouUi to get ready for the annual-, Pancake Day, which will take place next Saturday, May 20, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Legion home.
