"Please Come Home" p"
apparently destined to
become a hit, is the work
OF six Alexandria (Va.)
girls. They recorded it
for a man who was really
just trying to get his
own songs recorded.
The man, Richard
Ellis, is a 38-year-old
Navy veteran who works
as a machinist in a Sill
yer Spring (Md.) re-
search laboratory. He
lives at 2608 Avena ave-
nue., Wheaton.
Recently, Mr.. Ellis
made arrangements of
several of his newer
songs, intending to re-
cord them on demon
stration records. First
he went to New York
and recorded the inStru-
mental background.
Then he began looking
around WASHINGTON for
a group of singers to
record the choral parts.
Somebody referred him
to Barry Darvell. the
young Alexandria singer,
who gave him the phone
number of Christine
Kidd, one of a group OF
girl singers called the
"Varsitv Six"
Mr.. Ellis described his
plan to Christine and
She called the group TO-
gether to meet him. The
others were Joyce Knill,

Schools

In reply to the persons
who complain that their
schools have not gotten fair
coverage In TEEN magazine:
I would like to join In with
the editors In saying that
they must help. They should
do something about it them
selves. At Montgomery
Blair High Tin Silver Spring,
Md we have q position on
the staff Of the school paper
(Silver Chips who Is in
charge of what Is called the
School News Bureau.
It Is her job to get in all
news items from Blair to the
places where they will be pub
licized. Miss Haldi Silver has
done q wonderful job on this.
If other schools land there
are hundreds In the Wash
ington area, making 1t i'm
possible for any individual to
reach them all and keep in
constant contact with all Of
them would create a similar
bureau they wouldn't have
to complain about no news
coverage.

teen-ager. with all his ex-
perience, is bored so he
gets married. More often
than not the result is divorce.
Marriage cannot be based on
physical love alone it has
to be based on mutual un-
derstanding, faith. unselfish-
ness and so many other
things. Marriage is a job
in itself a hard job.
If teen-agers would just
slow down. act their age and
enjoy life as a person be-

maybe he should just

They said "Please Come

Teen-Agers

Are the teenagerS OF To-Day
any better off than the teen
ayers of past generations?
This question has certainly
entered the minds Of many
parents and psychologists and
is continually hashed and re-
hashed. Speaking as a teen
ager, I have long wanted to
voice my viewpoints on this
subject and have taken this
time to write out my personal
feelings.
In the first place. I will
have to agree that yeSter-
days teen-age crowd had a
lot more fun. the right kind
of fun, than does the teen
age crowd of today.
BY the time an average
teen-ager reaches the age of
18, he has lust about been
everywhere and done every
thing that his parents hadn't
done until their middle or
late '2Os. Back then there
were various formal dances.
taffy pulls, hay rides. picnics
and so forth to go to and
ENJOY. Notice that 1 en-
phaSize the word enjoy
this word to our parents
meant having a good time Of
everything; to the present
generation it means a diff
ferent form of enjoyment
sex has to enter in.
Can you imagine a teen
ager of today really enjoying
a formal dance (this means
tux by just dancing to the
music and having a good time
with everyone? No! Not
hardly. A formal dance
means taking a bath, getting
out OF the comfortable old
jeans and sneakers and get
ting into a Starched white
dress shirt, or formal, and a
sissy looking monkey suit"
Then the various couples
stick closer to each other
than glue, dancing the whole
time with no one but their
date and never, no never
cutting in it Just isn't
done.
Frankly. they can hardly
wait until the whole affair
is over and they can go to
an attendance party or back
seat of a car and smooch.
AS for taffy pulls. don't
bother to mention it. You
would be tagged as a square.
Hay rides used to be barrels
of fun with everybody sing
ing and really enjoying them
selves to the fullest. On. to-
days hayride, which are few
and far between. who sings?
Who in the world would
dream of singing?
By the use of the word
everyone" I don't mean the
entire teen-age population.
I am referring to a simple
majority. And as for the
old-fashioned picnic . after
the food is eaten up and all
the beer consumed it's
everyone of to his own
blanket for more Smoothing.
Now don't get me wrong. I
am not frowning on kissing
at all. It's a perfectly healthy,
natural thing. but it has to
be handled properly.
Because the world and its
population is moving at such
a fast pace, everyone feels
that he or she has to keep
UP with 1t by fast living.
I firmly believe that this is
one of the main reasons for
SO many teen-age marriages
and div0rcaS
Evening star., 1960-01-24

I am in agreement with
Dottie E. when she COM
planned about the "Whiffen-
poof SOM" but I will go a
little further.
How anyone with an ounce
of intelligence can pretend
to enjoy listening to the
slaughter of Danny Boy"
and the "Whiffenpoof Song" is
beyond me. 1t is an insult to
the teen-age mind that these
songs and others such as
Teen Angel" by Mark Dim
ming continue to be released
and played on the air.
l have heard it said that
you aren't supposed to listen
to the words. If not, why don't
they either cut out the words
or think up new ones.
I'm a teen-ager and I en-
joy popular music but l don't
like being labeled as one of
those crazy teen-agerS who
will listen and buy anything
as long as it has a beat.
MAUREEN.
Evening star., 1960-01-24

l agree with the fact that
some of the songs of old are
literally being laughed at be-
cause of the style of singing
and addition of words. I
didn't mind the Connie Fran
els version of God Bless
America" because it had real
feeling and a sense of respect
for our country. I have no
particular objections to the
"Whiffenpoof Song" except
think 1t is an example of a
song which is rather silly and
has absolutely no meaning.
