Md i rHiii t"t 'iil'sin ii i mil Some Teeners Think Parents Went All Out By EUGENE GILBERT It really was a merry Christmas for nine tenths of America's high school boys and girls. They are satisfied with the Christinas presents they got, they got what they expected in most instances, and they figure that their parents spent about the right amount on them or even too much. So, if you are one of those par ents who had an uneasy feeling (hat the youngsters were a bit un happy and disappointed around the Christmas tree relax. The per centages are riding with you. I can speak confidently about (his because my surveyors across (he nation have just talked to 760 young people. Most of them were in lamiues ot uie middle income bracket, but there were a good representation both richer and poorer. Ninety-two per cent of those in. lerviewed were happy with what they got and 72 per cent figured that their parents spent about the right amount on them. Nineteen per cent even figured that too mucn had been spent. As between girls and hnvs. it was the latter who seemed least pleas ed. Twelve per cent of the boys figured that their gifts were not costly enough, as against only 4 per cent of the girls. And 24 per cent of the girls thought that too much had been spent, as compar ed with 14 per cent of the boys. An overall satisfaction also, the girls seemed happier but just by a couple of percentage points. Many of their comments were revealing, some heart warming- others disquieting. "Mv parents did not get me anv- thing," said a 19-year-old Torrance, Calif., boy flatly. "I'm getting too old," noted a 17-year-old Oakland, Calif., girl. "I guess I just expect- . ed more," was the rueful com ment of another youngster who didn't want his name used. "I wanted a car, pouted an Enid, Okla., 16-ycar-old. But for a change of pace, listen to those "Gifts aren't measured," said Linda Wilkins, 17, of New Orleans, who thought she got the right amount. "My parents went without a few things to give my sisters and me a very nice Christmas," said Mar ty Johnson, 16, of Spokane, Wash. "Whatever they think is right is all right with me," noted De Lame Spring, 13, of Okeene, Okla. Barbara Hall, 18, of Salt Lake City commented her parents put more thought than ever into her presents because she is "harder to please." "They tried to give me all they could afford," said George S. Mackey, Jr., of DcRidder, La. Well, Christmas is all over now, but perhaps next year you will approach the shopping ordeal with more confidence. Glide Frosh, Juniors Given ITED Exams Iowa Tests of Educalion Devel opment were taken by all Glide High School freshmen and junior students Monday and Tuesday of last week.
