7. tw; LVE MED FOHD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday, January 29, 195S Eating Habits Of Teenagers Declared Poor Portland Teenagers come in all sizes regular and king-size, slim or fat but they all need milk, many of them more than they're drinking now. While today's teenager eats far better than those in previous generations, proof comes persist ently from research reports' that America's "younger set," as a group, still do not consume ade quate nutrients. In other words, their eating habits rate a poor grade on the mealtime report card. ' , How much milk should they drink? According to Dr. Zoe An derson, director of research and nutrition service, National Dairy council, it would take at least 12V2 billion pounds of milk per year about 10 of present an nual production to give teen agers the nutrients they need from milk. Why do teenagers need milk? Principally, for calcium. Their need for this mineral is great, and essential to proper growth and development. Recent Iowa State college studies, for exam ple showed that calcium is par ticularly lacking in the diets of teenagers in that state.

The . rjerson Dr. Hurlock , who h a s a "busy complex" is not using this as an excuse to avoid doing something you want him to, at least, he is not using this excuse consciously. He sincerely be lieves he is a busy person. True, he may be inefficient in the way he goes about doing things and, as a result, spends much more time doing these things than he needs to spend. Or, he may be a person who has set goals for himself beyond his abilities and, as a result, he is constantly striving to reach those goals. More often than not, however, the person with a "busy com plex" is one who has convinced himself that he is an important person, with many duties and responsibilities resting on his shoulders. The belief is a way of inflating his ego and cover ing up any feeling of inadequacy he may have. Feels Guilty To Relax He is so sincere in his belief that he feels guilty if he takes time out to relax and enjoy life. This he ' regards' as "wasting" time and he feels just as guilty about it as he would if he were throwing away precious posses sions or money. In addition, he is irritated if if others "waste" his time by keeping him waiting for an ap pointment, by spending longer on a given task than he thinks they should, or merely by talk ing to him when he feels he should be doing something more important. Because of these feelings of guilt, the person with a "busy complex" is never really happy nor does he enjoy life. True, he may get pleasure from his achievements but even then, there is ever-present a feeling of rush and hurry that takes away some of the pleasure these achievements would otherwise bring him. Thus, it is apparent that the person with a "busy complex" is one who is his own worst enemy in that he not only makes himself unhappy but he makes others with whom he is associ ated uneasy and unhappy also. LETTERS FROM READERS NamesP'T have a family name as my first name. Everyone either mispronounces it or asks we where I got oil. I would like to change my name but I am afraid I will hurt my parents' feelings. What can I do? A.R.T. (A) Why not select a nick name that is related to your first name and ask your family and friends to call you by that name? Be sure it is a dignified enough nickname, such as "Terry," "Bob," or "Pat" that you can use in place of your first name. As you grow older, you may be very glad to .have a distinctive first name. So don't be in any hurry to change it. Dates: "There are several boys in school who seem to like my By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. girl friend and me. But they are afraid to ask us for dates. How can we gel them to ask us? Two Girls (A) Are you sure that the boys are "afraid" to ask you for dates? Perhaps they don't want to take you and your friend out on a date and perhaps they feel they have better uses for their money. If you want to discover what is back of their not asking you, break the ice by inviting them to your home for an in formal get-together. Then it will be their turn to ask you to do something with them, if they want to take you out and are interested in starting to have dates with you. Entertainment: "My husband is always wanting fo bring some of his business friends home for dinner or a drink and he wants . me to invite ihem and their wives for an evening. of cards. I think we should enter tain our v personal friends and we can't afford to do both." (A) Your husband may. feel, and rightly so, that getting ahead in business is greatly helped by personal contacts with the people he works witth. Go along with him and do what he wants you to do.
