For And About Teenagers IF YOU GO BACK W I T H H I M , WE'LL TAKE THE CAP AWAY.' A Winner of an Oscar Party THIS WEEK'S LETTER: "I am 16 and was going with my boyfriend for 14 months Finally, we broke up for 3 weeks and now realize that we can't keep away from each other We both want to go back together. But my parents are against it. They won't let me go back with him and I really want to go hack as bad as he does. My parents said they'll take the car away if I do. Should I go back with my boyfriend and be happy--with no car--or should I forget about him and satisfy my parents? What should I do?" OUR REPLY: You have to an­ swer your own question. We can tell you that your parents have reasons ior their actions. Take responsibility for communicating with them and finding out what those reasons are. Make certain they're clear about your inten­ tions. Be truthful and honest in sharing your feelings with them. They love you and you love them. Work together to handle the situation. We're glad to hear you admit it's possible to be happy with no car, though it would probably be hard to be happy if you're going against your parents wishes. * (licim of Mm of «na lor personal rcpNM caimX ha and/or com mania from rootfors.

Cheese Puff Is A 4-In-l Sandwich * The insatiable sandwich snatcher is usually under the age of twelve, dotes on peanut butter and jelly and hamburg­ ers, though not necessarily at the same time, and would al­ most rather skip dinner than sample the broccoli amandine. If your youngsters are in­ satiable sandwich snatchers, you can expand their appetite horizons by serving them a sandwich that's more interest­ ing than bologna. Cheese Ham Puff will appeal to them--espe­ cially after they've spent a chilly afternoon making a snow­ man.

R is intended to provide short-distance ra­ dio-telephone communications for business and personal activities. R is the largest and most widely used communi­ cations medium with the exception of the telephone. There are approximately one million licensed CB*ers who operate around five million transceivers. (Trans­ ceivers are a combination receiver and transmitter unit. They range from desk-top and console models for base stations to in-dash and under-dash models for cars and other vehicles and to small hand-held walkie-talkie units.) Licensed operators are U.S. citizens or resident- aliens who are 18 years old or older. Persons much younger can operate licensed stations if they are members of the licensee's household or business. The licensee is technically responsible for any violations that may be committed by other operators. The range of a station depends on several variables. These include antenna type, antenna height, atmospheric and manmade noise on the channel and interference from other stations on the channel at the same time that you are. * Generally, you can expect a base station to base station range of around 25 miles in the city and 25 to 35 miles in the country. Base to mobile range is around 10 to 12 miles in the average city and up to 20 miles in the country. Reliable contacts between mobile units averages 5 to 10 miles in cities and pos­ sibly up to 15 miles in the country.

Lucas, county executive director of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service < ASCS), Lucas said ASCS offices are receiving explanations about the Privacy act of 1974 that went into effect at the end of last September because such offices'maintain some records on employees, committeemen, farmers and certain in­ dividuals who do business with ASCS. He indicated that James H. Dinwiddie is coordinator of the privacy and freedom of information effort, and director of the Data Systems division of the Agriculture depart­ ment's ASCS agency. Dinwiddie said, "The Privacy act affects each one of us as citizens. You can now determine what personal records are collected, main­ tained, used or disseminated by any federal agency. And ad­ ditional disclosure* without the individual's consent are prohibited "Regarding your social security number, no federal state or local government agency can require you to disclose your number, unless they had legal requirement for it prior to Jan 1. 1975." Din­ widdie said The explanation noted that even on existing requirements, you must be told the authority for the disclosure and what use will be made of the number. Dinwiddie noted that except for the social security number provision, the Privacy act of 1974 applies only to federal record systems. It does, however, create a Privacy Protection Study commission which will recommend legislation covering the private sector. "We will probably be seeing continued legislative interest in what Justice Louis Brandeis once called 'the right most valued by civilized man...the right to be let alone," Din­ widdie said.
