Do you think his intentions arc honorable? Frustrated. Dear Frustrated: If you are taking 25 1 ohm and have !:■ uble figunng out what bin Intentions are. you have no won ire. You won’t even be here next term. PS Good lmk at SOCE. Dear Maxine: I have ben pinned to a. wonderful girl for nb< ut 6 months and f> days. She’s the greatest thing that’s ever happened to me. We have always been i>“ close a*-- close can be. But no. trouble has reaied its ugly head. Last week. I began working in my father's factory, taste-testing Dim burger cheese. Since there I have had the feeling that my girl has grown cold toward me. What's wrong? A1 Halitosis. Dear Al: Youi« is a problem that even vour be** fiiend won't fell you, but not bong your oest friend, and under the circum r’ancos not desiring to be, I can tell you. Your problem is find ing a giil who could be compatible with you notwithstanding your new circumstances. In Monday’s column, a girl named I.ysistiata wrote in complaining that she had no mouth. Per haps you could contact her as she may have a fiiend without a nose. f>*-ar Maxine: I am a Spanish-American War vet going to school on ‘he SJBH (San Juan Hill Bill). I am still interested in social hfe, but have trouble finding- girls who know the Virginia Reel and who don't mind my crutches, which slow me down a bit. Al though I am very independent of nature. I have thought of applying for a social security pension so that I can afford to hire Arthur Murray to teach a girl the Virginia Reel—but this still doesn't solve the problem about the crutches. I am willing to do almost anything to get back in the swing of things. Do you have any suggestions? Dude. Dear Dude: It is a natural desire to want to get into the swing of things, and 1 admire you for it under the circiimstar.- - s. But even if Arthur Manat’ knew the Virginia Reel • which is doubt ful) and did teach vour girl, your talents would be restricted to only one girl. In order to broaden your horizons. I suggest you learn to bop This should really be no problem. Look what Elvis Presley was able to o.o with all his physical disabilities. Confidential: Cox and Oranata, please don't write letteis to the editor on Monday or Thursday. Nobody is reading my column.
