' "The way Marily babies Jack is terrible. That guy won't lift a finger to help himself." The divorce courts, the mar riage counselling eliices, and the doctor's consulting rooms are full of over-dependent people who have forgotten that marri age is a cooperative enterprise. A good marriage is one in which two individuals strive to satisfy and fulfill the needs, not only of themselves, but also of the other partner. It has been said that a mutual love is an in surance for happiness, because such a love doubles security against the pains and conflicts of the outside world. Troubles are less formidable when Jane and Joe face them together, each drawing strength from and sup plementing', the powers of the other. "When the balance between two elements in the love bond is unequal," says Dr. Karl Men ninger in his "Love Against Hate," when one party or the other is deficient in his capacity to give love, the other partner is imposed upon and unconsciously resents it. In such instances we speak of a husband being bur dened with an over-dependent wife, or vice versa." In other words, when a part ner withdraws her or his emo tional support and cooperation from a marriage situation, that individual lets his partner down and lays him open to self-destruction, and the marriage to ruin.

It reassures him, but it does more; it affords him an opportunity to give love that is welcomed, and makes him capable of more and more love, and hence of less and less hate and feelings of guilt." Ideal marriage is one in which the partners are cooperatively dependent as well as construc tively independent of each other. sharing each others' problems and strength.

I95S Society Thrifty Elizabeth Wears Same Frocks 'Bought Last Year By MARGARET SAVILLE United Press Correspondent London (U.R) Queen Eliza beth II is making do with last year's summer cottons at least for wear around the house. Britain's economy - minded queen, one of the richest wo men in the world, is bringing out the inexpensive cotton frocks she bought for her Niger ian tour last year. She plans to wear them in the palace gardens on hot days. But some new clothes also must be in order, for the Queen has on schedule a state visit to Sweden in June. She and the Duke of Edinburgh will sail in to Stockholm on the royal yacht "Brittania," to be guests of King Gustaf Adolf and Queen Louise. Many of the clothes she has ordered from fashionable May fair salons are in the pastel shades, favored by many chic European women this summer. The Queen's selections in clude on afternoon dress of primrose lace, a crinoline skirt ed evening gown of several shades of rosy chiffons, a pearl grey suit and an ivory-white silk coat and dress. With her characteristic thrift, the Queen will wear these again at home for such events as As cot race week, the Buckingham palace garden-parties, the char ity balls and debutante dances. Princess Margaret prefers yel lows for her new summer clothes. One new dress is of pale gold silk, with high draped cum merbund waistline and a wide skirt. She wears it with a match ing fabric hat, and champagne colored mink jacket when it is cool.

The President and first lady will observe the anniversary with an exchange of personal gifts. But probably the one thing making each happiest about the date is their stay at the Gettys burg, Pa., farm itself a further step in the President's recovery. Mr. Eisenhower's "promotion" to the farm house from Walter Reed hospital could give them the same kind of boost they felt when his promotion to first lieutenant came through 40 years ago on their wedding day. Mr. Eisenhower's convales cence at the white frame and fieldstone farm house, incident ally, may well be longer than the 10 days leave he got for his honeymoon back in 1916. Honeymoon Short Then, tension on the Mexican border and a rising threat of war with Germany kept the honey moon short and also caused the young couple to move up their wedding day from November to July. Lt. Eisenhower then was a 29-year-old officer fresh from West Point on his first Army assign ment at Fort Sam Houston, Tex. The moved-up wedding meant the successful end of his cam paign for the hand of Denver's popular Mamie Geneva Doud. The campaign had begun Jess than one year before. Lt. Eisenhower met his future bride when her family was spending the summer of 1915 in San Antonio, just a few miles from his Army post. The persist ent young officer soon narrowed the field of competition and they became unofficially en gaged on Valentine's day the 50th Anniversary To Be Observed Mr. and Mrs. James F. Neeley of Medford will observe their golden wedding anniversary with reception Sunday, July 1.

Any gen eral assumption that children and youth of this generation have "gone to the dogs" is a serious mistake according to evi dence in the report of a study released here Thursday by the National Education association (NEA). Admittedly, the report concludes, there are trouble spots and serious conditions in many communities and schools, but the picture for the nation as a whole is not nearly as bad as has been painted. The study provides ample evi dence that the great majority of boys and girls are not juvenile delinquents. Nearly two-thirds (64 per cent) of the public school teachers of the United States re port that real trouble makers ac count for fewer than one in every 100 of their pupils: 92 per cent say behavior in their commun ities is not as bad as the im pression given by press, radio and the movies; and 95 per cent describe the pupils they teach as either "exceptionally well be haved" or "reasonably well be haved" as a group. Surrey Extensive - The 60-page . report, entitled "Teacher Opinion on Pupil Be havior," was prepared by the NEA Research Division in co operation with the NEA Com mission for the Defense of De mocracy Through Education. It is based on questionnaires filled out by 4270 classroom teachers representative of rural and urban school systems, of every size and grade level, and of the various geographic regions of the United States. Replies were received from everyone of the 48 states. WThile the situation for the nation as a whole turns up in a rather favorable light, sheer big ness of the education enterprise and trouble with pupils seem to go hand in hand. Teachers in big school districts, in big schools and with big classes reported significantly more trouble with pupils than teachers in email school districts in small schools and with small classes. This was one of the clearest and most def inite relationships established by the study. Evidence indicates mat wnen class size moves zrom 30 to 40 pupils, problems tend to double. Teachers in the larg est cities reported over twice as many trouble makers per class room as those in the smaller cities. Bigness Is Factor A similar pattern was obtained on the question, "During the past 12 months has any act of vio lence against you been commit ted by a pupil in your school?" Less than one per cent answered affirmatively in cities under 5000 population. On the other hand, 3.3 per cent of the teach ers in cities over 500,000 popu lation, said "yes." Over 28 per cent of the teachers in school districts containing 1,000,000 or more people reported at least one act of physical violence against a faculty member in their school had occurred in the past 12 months. An evaluation of 18 acts of misbehavior occurring now as compared with 10 years ago and 20 years ago Indicates that three Two Return Mrs. Marvin JacObsen and small son, Dana Lee, 344 North Ivy street, have returned to Med ford after spending two weeks with friends and relatives in the Los Angeles area.

These three, plus steal ing of a serious nature, sex of fenses and cheating on home work, are definitely occurring more frequently now than they did 20 years ago. Again, the situ ation appears to be considerably worse in the large school dis tricts, the large schools and in urban areas than in small schools and districts and in rural areas. The actors most frequently as sociated with misbehavior in school, in the opinions of class room teachers are related to the home and family life of the chil dren and youth. When asked to rank causes of misbehavior, irre sponsible parents, unsatisfactory home conditions, lack of parental supervision due to mother work ing and lack of training in moral and spiritual values headed the list in that order. Ranked 5 through 8 were lack of special classes for academically retard ed pupils, lack of special classes for those of low intelligence. overcrowded classes and In creased availability of automo biles to teenagers.
