WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Never underestimate the
power Of a woman" used to be
the slogan Of one Of the leading
magazines. Today I'm inclined
to believe that it should be re-
vised to read Never under
estimate the power of a teen
ager" - especially when you
view teen-agers en- masSe.
Youngsters now have their own
magazines, their own record
clubs, their own book clubs
and even, so help me, their own
language.
Nearly 10 years ago, with
the help Of Mrs. Morris and a
pair of hipchick teen-age daugh-
tiers, I compiled the first collec-
ton of teen-taIk, a booklet
called "The Real Gone Lexi-
con-" 1t proved wildly successful,
not only with teensterS but with
their parents, teachers and
religious leaders. The latter
hoped to find, in ''RGL" as we
came to call it, the true clue
to understanding teen Ian
guage.
The chief trouble was that
the language of teens, like all
language, is steadily changing
and we simply couldn't keep
the book up to date, despite
continuing requests from young
Sters.
But there appears to be a
happy solution to the problem at
last. Beginning this month, in
the bookstores and on the news
stands Of the country, teen
ayers ana tnelr WardenS -
as parents are called-will find
a modestly priced teen-age ap-
pointment calendar or date
book called Strictly From
WordSville." It's published by
GroSset & Dunlap, New York,
and contains several hundred
of the latest teen expressions,
from boss" to real moSse''
and from ''fink" to "twink. "
Besides all the teen expires
