7 Feel So Bad
By HARRY BACAS
Star staff Writer

Elvis PreSley's latest hit,
Il Feel So Bad" was re-
corded at one of those all
night marathonS for which
he is famous.
ElviS doesn't go into a
studio and cut three or four
songs, the way other sing
ers do. He starts singing
and doesn't stop until he
has got a dozen or more
songs on tape.
The IT Feel So Bad" seS-
sion was held a couple Of
months ago in Nashville.
Steve Sholes, RCA Vic
tors director of Popular
recordings, who recently
was transferred from New
York to the West Coast,
supervised the session per-
sonally, as he does all of
ElviS' recordings.
Chet Atkins, Victor's head
man in Nashville, rode
herd on the musicians and
ran things in the control
booth. At least he did as
long as he could keep his
eyes open.
They started recording at
8 pm. and didn't stop until
8 am. Mr.. Atkins quit and
went home to bed long be-
fore that.

are many junior and commu-
nifty colleges available.
Finally, for high school
graduates who are totally
unqualified for admission,
there is the world of work. To
push a youngster, whose
records, scholastic perform
ance and test scores show him
to be unsuited, into a college,
is a needless waste of time
and money. 1t is also a pain
full and humiliating expert
ence for the student.
I urge-I PLEAD-with
parents not to inflict their
own wishes on their children.
I beg them to guard against
unconsciouSly influencing the
child'S choice. The social
climber who wants his son in
an Ivy League school for
reasons of Snobbery; the par
entS who instinctively recon-
mend an all-girl college be-
cause they remember their
own gallivanting at a coed
school-there are q dozen
possible variations on the
theme, and each is dangerous
to the child's happiness. At
most, a parent should inform
his child in an Unconditional
way of any valid preferences
he may have.
Today, as never before,
competition for college ad-
missions is intense. With
every new year, for some time
to come, it is likely to
grow keener. Thus, the job of
selecting, applying to and
being accepted by our over
crowded institutions of high
er learning is not a job for
the student alone. Nor is it
a job for the student and his
high school alone. Nor is it
a job for the college. 1t is.

automatically assure that
his program will be judged
sufficient by any college in
that field.
When your child has
made a preliminary selec-
ton of colleges to which to
apply (no later than his
junior year, preferably in
sophomore year or earlier),
arrange to take him for
visits to the particular
schools.
Help him notice details
which may evade an en-
thusiastic adoleScent eye:
The kind of student the
college attracts, the prob
able cost of living, extern
siveness of facilities for
study and recreation, etc.
Before the visit, study the
catalogues of the college
with him so he'll know
what questions, if any, he
wants to ask the inter-
viewer.
Make sure your child

Be certain that he takes
a Junior year dry run of the

Encourage tutoring, if nec-
essary, in the subjects in
which he will take achieve
ment tests, and for the SAT
as well as the dry-run score

that he takes the new Pre-

must also take the new
ACT.
Check his application

it meets the requirements

In a sense, my daughters

"It is advisable for parents

secondary school career"
This comment from Wes-
leyan University is typical of
many similar statements
from colleges around the
country, urging that planning
and preparation for colleges
need to be made on a long
range basis. Students should
begin to think about college
when they are in the ninth
grade.
Parents would do well to
begin their planning when
baby has learned to talk. Too
many parents have made the
mistake of letting things slide
