attended ever since. We
always seem to end up to-

/ think he is wonderful,

get a boys attention is to
talk about something in
which he is interested.
Well, Don plays football,
so 1 tried talking to him
about that.
The trouble is. 1 don't
know enough about the
game to make the CONVEX
SatiOn very interesting.
Could you give me some
tips on how to be a more

KIM.
Don probably has other
interests, besides football,
which you can discover by
asking a few leading queS-
tions. You see, listening is
the other half of conversa-
tion and, in my opinion.
even an occasional period of
silence is better than a girl
chattering franticaily about
something which she knows
little about.
Why not invite Don to
your home some evening?
Ask your brother to get a
date, too, and make it a
foursome. Play cards, dance
to records, watch TV and
have some refreshments. II
he accepts, the next move will
be up to him.

Dear Mrs. Kicker:
Recently 1 read one Of
your columns which con-
tanned a letter from a boy
who thinks girls encourage
boys to get fresh. Well,
there are still a few of us
girls who don't appreciate
boys who do that. One boy
who got fresh with me said
he was "just a normal
boy" but surely they all
aren't like that-are they?
1 think boys should real.
ize that girls are looking
for a boy to love and marry
some day, and not for a
boy who is only interested
in making out, or worse.
Were things like that
when you were a teen
ager, Mrs. Kicker? In my
dictionary it says pet"
means to fOndle or caress
tenderly.
A lot Of boys say they
want to pet to show their
'1Ove," and with this def
milton in mind l guess they
think they're right. Don't
misunderstood me, I'm
against it-and il the def
milton were true, look at
how many girls most boys
have loved! Please help
straighten out a lot of us
confused girls.
WONDERING
Boys got fresh" with girls
when I was a teen-ager, but
Judging by my mail I be-
lieve, in these times, fewer
girls demand and insist on
respect from the boys they
date.
The word love" is one of
the most abused words in the
vocabulary of today's teens.
It is used to describe most
anything in a boy-girl re-
Iationship from a 24-hour
crush to an illicit, ugly af-
fair. Actually, love. deep af-
lection or devotion all mean
about the same thing -
Steadfast, loyal AND EN-
DURING.
I am sure you know that
these words have little to do
with the word pet" which
mas become a slang word
Used to describe heavy neck
ing; or the word fresh"
means (among other
,hings) forward or impert-
nent boldneSS.
The fact that the word
love" has lost much of its
deeper meaning is not en-
tirely the fault of today's
ieens. In my opinion, trashy
