Wg® rOull60B THE RvRERRi PIJAINDEaLER UNDER 21 A column for teen-agers By Dan Halligan PERSONALS DEAR DAN: I have a problem like most girls of 17. 1 have been going steady wtth »a very nice boy for a year and two months. He would do almost anything for me. Well, my problem is that some of the girls from school have told me how much fun they have with him in class. . At lunch we eat together but he's always fooling around with a certain few girls. He's always teasing them and they tease back. If I say something, he says he's just having fun but if he likes me as much as he says, how can he do these things? I thought when you went steady, you weren't supposed to fool around with others. Can you help me with this puzzle? -- Loretta. DEAR LORETTA: The basic rule of going steady is that the boy and girl don't date others. There's nothing in the book that says a boy can't be friendly toward other g^rls or even "fool around" with them. I think most of the problem is you. The little green monster with the name plate "Mr. Jealousy" is perched on your shoulder. You can't expect your boy friend to completely isolate himself. Remember, you ha>3& the winning hand as of I now. The boy "fools around" with^lhe other girls at school 1 but you're the one he dates and likes for a girl friend. | You can be just as friendly toward other boys without : feeling you're violating your going steady rule book. DEAR DAN: My best friend and his girl intend to get married the night of our graduation from high school and he wants me to be his best man. The big trouble is that they're going to elope to the next state and the marriage won't be popular with either his parents or the girl's parents. The parents want them to wait at least until October but they have their minds made up. I'm not so concerned about my friend being mad because I won't be his best man but I'm worried about the marriage itself. Should I tell the parents or keep quiet and hope everything works out? -- A Friend. DEAR FRIEND: Telling the parents may stop the boy and girl from a June wedding but if they have their minds made up, they'll probably run away at the first chance they get. Talk to your buddy, try to show him his parents' side of this. Being asked to wait a few months shouldn't make or break the marriage and if the couple can get the blessings of the four parerfts in October, why should they want to disappoint and hurt those who raised th£m from the cradle? "Hoping" the elopement will work out is atfout as risky a start in marriage as you can get. I say go ahead and tell the parents but have that talk with your friend first., DEAR DAN: My girl says she's being forced to date this friend of her brother's next month. Her brother is coming home from college and is bringing his roommate with him and my girl has to go out with this guy. I don't think this is right and I'm about ready to call it quits. I realize it's not my girl's fault but that doesn't help. What should I do? -- Billy T. DEAR BILLY T.: Maybe if your girl proved toi'be a big disappointment on Date No. 1, acting like a 12-year^old, seeming to be bored, and all the rest of it, perhaps this might break the chain of dating. Then, too, perhaps one of her 'girl friends would be "thrilled to death" to date a college boy. Get your heads together and see what you can work out. If nothing work, I agree that the parents aren't being fair to you. DEAR DAN: I'm as gabby as any girl when I'm in a crowd of girls and boys but let a boy get me out on the dance floor and I get all tongue-tied and don't know what to say. I usually don't say anything and then I feel embarrassed. Also, what does it mean when a boy starts singing the song you're dancing to' in your ear ever "so softly? -- Miss Worried. DEAR MISS WORRIED: You're placing too much stress op the conversation while dancing. Actually, none is needed. You can always comment about the dance itself, the crowd, the music, the occasion and school if you feel you have to talk. What does it mean when a boy starts singing while you're dancing? The guy just feels romantic and even if lie doesn't sound like Fabian, enjoy the added treat. DEAR DAN: My best friend is very selfish, very stingy and very unfair. She never wants to do anything I want to do and if I don't let her have her way, she goes home and won't have anything to do with me unless I phone her and apologize. This happens at least once a week and I'm getting very tired of it. Please tell me what to do to save our friendship and my sanity. We're 13 and 14. -- E. P. DEAR E. P.: You're catering to your friend too much. The next time she runs home and waits for the\phone to ring, let her wait and wait. Before you know It, she'll be phoning you and saying "What's the matter? Are you mad at me?" Friendships are only good when there is as much give in them as there is take and you've been giving entirely too much. DEAR DAN: My buddy and I were out of town over the weekend and we met two girls. We took them dancing Saturday night and then spent most of Sunday with them. My buddy all of a sudden has a guilty conscience and wants to tell his girl. I think he would be risking a real fight because there's not a way in the world for our girls to find out ^ hat happened and actually we didn't do anything wrong. If you were in our shoes, what would you do? -- No Squealer. DEAR NO SQUEALER: Please, too many people want to put me in too many pair of shoes and I don't appreciate the fit. True, your girls may never find out but how would you feel if your girls pulled the same stunt on you? Yeah, that would be something else again. DEAR DAN: I'm going steady with a 17-year-old girl but I feel she's getting too serious and I want to know how I can tell her we shouldn't go steady any longer without making her feel bad? This girl is very nice but she's just too serious. -- Sonny. I DEAR SONNY: You needn't tell her she's getting too serious for your taste but you can tell her you want to date other girls. Right away she'll want to know if you've stopped liking her and when you tell her you haven't, she's going to be a little confused because she won't be able to understand how you can like her but still want to date other girls. At that point you'll probably have to say you think you're too young to be getting serious over each other. Some tears may flow but as long as you fee! as you do, the girl should know the score. DEAR DAN: My boy friend, or my ex-boy friend, is in the service and has broken up with me three times in the past five months over a girl who lives in the city near his base. When he comes home on a pass, he's very attentive to me but then when he goes back to his post, he writes and says he's sorry but he likes this other girl better and tells me we re through. That s happened three times and my nerves are just about gone. He's due home the end of this month for three days and I know just what's going to happen but I'm wondering if I should let it happen. I know he doesn't do this to be mean but I have my feelings too. What do you think about this? -- Nancy J. DEAR NANCY: Your ex-boy friend is putting himself on the spot and if you think your nerves are bad, what about his? He's operating under the theory of "out of sight, out of mind." Apparently he likes you two girls equally as well and in trying to please the one, he's hurting the other. He's in no position to be going steady with either of you. Keep that in mind and you'll know what to do the end of this month. DEAR DAN: My parents give me an allowance each week but when I buy something they don't like or approve of they make me return it. I love records but most of the time when my mother hears them, she says I have to take them back. I only get a dollar a week and I think I should be allowed to spend it as I see fit. Do you agree? Mistreated.

COOKS CORNER by Marie ScTiaettgen Fish cookery is probably understood better hi' the Scandinavians than by any other group. For the vacation season nothing can "oe nicer than a casserole of fish. The following recipe is a favorite of a very dear Scandinavian friend and I call it-- Martha's Codfish Souffle , 1 lb. frozen codfish (uncooked and unbreaded) 3 eggs 2 cups milk 2 Tbsp. butter 2 Tbsp. flour salt and pepper to taste Boil fish, in large kettle, while still frozen. Cook until fish is done but not falling apart. Drain well. Remove to bowl and flake with fork. Prepare cream sauce by melting butter, add flour and stir well (off burner). Return to heat and add milk slowly stirring well to keep from burning. Cook until it becomes quite thick. Set aside to cool. Add beaten eggs slowly to cold white sauce. If sauce is hot it will cook eggs. Ada fish slowly and season to taste. Remove to buttered casserole and bake in slow oven until silver blade inserted in center comes out clean, about 1 hour or longer. Oven should be about 325 degrees. The wise man seeks knowledge: the fool dispenses it.- It is always better to set a good example, than to follow a poor one. FLATTERING AS 4 CAN DtE-L 6HT St'i %wL AQUA SPRAY jg. now!

Green St. Phone 385-2027 FREE PARKING METER MONEY Our Neighbors Set Apart By Their Talkative Nature The slang expression "gift of gab" contains more truth than fiction, judging by some figures released recently on telephones in our own state. Illinois has more phones than Russia, more than Central and South America and the Caribbean nations combined. And the state has more than twice' as many telephones as all of Africa. Only five nations in the world -- and one of them is the United States, of course -- have more than Illinois. These are Britain. West Germany, Canada and Japan. The U.S-. has forty phones per each 100 persons, Russia has 2 per each 100. No country in the world approaches Illinois' number of phones per 100 persons -- forty-eight. Of the major nations, Sweden is closest ,with thirty-seven. And Illinoisans use their phones often, more than 560 conversations a year per person. This far exceeds the use of any nation in the world. Recent years have seen a very rapid expansion in telephone systems everywhere. During the past ten years the gain in the rest of the world has exceeded that in this country, with the result^ihat today the United States' proportion of the world total has dropped from 57 per cent to 52. This makes us a pretty "gabby" nation. * Thursday, June 7, 1982 Many Lend Helping Hand In Developing Talents Of Youth There are indications that state-wide response to recent conferences throughout the state on developing the talents of all Illinois youth have been most encouraging. * Superintendent of Public Instruction George T. Wilkins said that very valuable suggestions have been received from ^representatives of agricultural, business, civil, educational, labor, industrial, professional, religious and social service groups. Many hundreds of these representatives have attended conferences for this purpose. Primary object is to discuss possible legislative action by the General Assembly to encourage and further the education of gifted children. Proposals for action at the state level are growing out of the studies carried on in selected Illinois school districts with support from the Special Study Project for Gifted Children, established in 1959. It was charged with the responsibility for securing data, information and recommendations to assist the General Assembly e to determine whether permanent legislation to assist districts in providing for gifted „ children is needed and desired, and also to tell the nature of such proposed legislation, if desired. The final report of the project is required by law on Dec. 1 of this year.
