Group Counseling For Marital Problems Can married folk with emo tional problems find aid in group counseling? Do people find it possible to discuss intimate per sonal questions within a circle of strangers? Are husbands -and wives able to cooperate in a group situation, without "fire works"? According to Clinton E. Phil lips, associate director of the De partment of Counseling at the American Institute of Family Relations In Los Angeles, group counseling is highly successful. At the institute, two groups for married couples run simultan eously, limited to 8 clients per group, with a trained counselor directing discussion. Groups are mixed, as in the case of the un married, -discussed last week, with far more men participating than in private counseling. After four hours for each spouse with a personal counsel or, a couple may be referred to a group, if desired, where theft" problems are further discussed and a settlement attempted.

After counsel ing and exchanging ideas, both respect each other more, and are better able to see each oth er's viewpoint and adjust to their ; partners' strengths and weak- nesses. New perspectives, release j of tension, increased sympathy and understanding: these are the j products of this group technique. ) Under the guidance of a skill- j ed leader, a couple can find in group counseling, a new ap proach to their problems and a deeper insight into their mutual needs. Of course, between a couple tense with the pain of a mutual problem, there is an ex plosive possibility, but the coun selor aids in guiding the discus- Fresh Fruit Dressing ' Here is a honey and wine vinegar dressing that is very good with any combination of fruit.
