what does a teen-ager
think about the way other
teen-agers dress?
Some parents have already
gone on record on teen-age
dress, as a lot Of teen-agers
can testify. There's the case
Of the husband and wife who
just nod dejectedly as they
watch their teen-age son step
across the threshold of their
fashionable home for an
afternoon with the boys.
What is he wearing that
gives them such tremors?
Tight. but oh so tight, low
slung black trousers; a laven-
der shirt with buttons down
tab rounded collar; no tie; an
emerald green square-topped
vest with brass buttons; a
dull plaid jacket that hints
Of deep purple and black;
black pointed sidewinder
shoes and pure white socks.
He says he is real boss"
And out Chevy Chase way
there's another swinger,
Hank Classic, whose favorite
attire for getting with the
swift action is a suit lined
with red.
But do teen-agers really
like the dress styles Of their
fellow teen-agers2
We decided to ask the
teen-agers themselves.
Teen-agers are getting to
be more dress-conscious than
ever. Many schools hold heel
and-tie days periodically
when teen-agers dress UP for
school. Most have rules Of
dress that make sitting in
your blue jeans In q hot tub
Of water to shrink them to
your form q thing Of the
past.
At Falls Church High
School, for instance, the
first Thursday Of every
month is "Dress-Up Day."
On this special day students
are urged to wear their Sum-
day best, with boys in coats
and ties.
And each month on that
day, the best-dressed boy and
girl are selected from the stu
dent body. They are inter-
viewed and their picture is
run in the school newspaper,
the Jaguar Journal.
The six teen-agers who
have been chosen as Falls
Church Highs best dressed
SO far this year have definite
opinions about threads" for
themselves and others.

the best-dress@ boy for
october, likes seamless stock

at least one or two in the

feelings get hurt. Because of
this possibility a wise host

experience this can be done
satisfactorily.
Unfortunately. some boys
are inclined to talk about
girls in a derogatory man

being easy" If she permits

at parties. The boys add their
suspicious to what they al

long and this Is what start

the mistake Of chasing this
boy and he is disgusted-not
necessarily with you as a per-
son but with your behavior.
If a girl who makes this mis-
take could hear the remarks
boys make about them they
would soon realize how wrong
they are.
My advice is to stop chas-
ing the boy. Be CASUALLY
friendly but stay out Of his
hair. He may not be very
interested in girls yet but
give him a little time. One
Of these days he may look at
you and say, "Wow!!" instead
