him to ask her for a second date?
Ever since l started dating a
few months ago this problem has
been worrying ms. I've had dates
with boys but very few of them
have asked me out a second time
and I'm wondering if it isn't be-
cause they think they we're cheat
ed because they didn't get to kiss
me goodnight.
Is a goodnight kiss a unjust"
when a girl is brought home? If
it is, I guess I'll wind UP an old
maid because 1 won't trade my
principles just to make a boy
feel good. Am 1 wrong in my
Uninking?-Mona
Dear Mona: No, you're not
wrong in your thinking except
in thinking that boys rate girls on
whether or not they get good
night kisses. Some boys, OF
course, do think they're cheated
if they don't get at least M kiss.
Others feel cheated if a girl won't
park with them the first time
out together. Others r pleased
when they find a girl who won't
kiss them and still others are
are disappointed but both groups
usually ask the unkisSable girls
out again and again.
AS long as you believe as you
do, stick with your principles.
You can gentle squeeze a boys
hand at your front door, at the
same time telling him what a
wonderful" evening you had and
he'll be halfway home before he
realizes he didn't get kissed. He
won't mind though and he'll be
back.
Dear Dan: I'm a boy of IA and
am ashamed sometimes to go to
school because of the way my hair
looks. My father won't send any
of us kids to barber shops except
ABOUT three times a year and when
me cuts my hair, you can tell it's
/ homemade job.
1t isn't that we don't nave the
money for the barber because we
do. We're not rich but we have
enough money from one week to
the next. Dad always goes to
the barber shop but whenever l
complain he says, mo one notices
kids" They do too. What do you
ahink?-AShamed.
Dear Ashamed: There are home
barber kits and with enough prac-
tice, a father can do a creditable
Job on his youngsters hair. How
ever, he can also make the chilC
feel ashamed if the job is sloppy
I've seen the type haircuts you'v
written about and I know tn
kids must feel funny"
Your father, of course, has hi
own mind to do as he please
where you and your brothers AM
sisters are concerned but if h
doesn't want to send you kids t
the barber shop, he could take
] little more pains with his work

After a day that would
have left most tourists soak
ing their feet, visiting Su-
danese President Ibrahim
Abboud turned up bright
eyed and cheerful for his
second state dinner here last
night.
Up since early morning, he
had been to the Washington

The dinner was given by
the Secretary of State and
Mrs. Rusk in the Benjamin
Franklin Room of the State
Department. Preceded by an
hour-long reception for the
80-some guests, it began
about 8 o'clock.
The long banquet table
and the sides of the rooms
were decorated with big bou-
quetS of yellow and bronze
chrySanthemums. in alter
nately tall and low arrange
ments. Mrs. Rusk, who re-
portedly chose the flowers,
wore a gown that harmo-
nized beautifully-a sheath Of
deep bronze and gold bro

woman in the Sudanese
party, was dressed in a bright
yellow gown covered by a
