Right now, though, T& bet ter be sure that we you and I mean the same thing by "glamour." Glamorous clothes are not necessarily super sophisticated or ultra - ad vanced in style or terribly ex pensive. Glamorous clothes are those which are suited to you, in dividually, so as to be the greatest compliment to your personality, and they're suit ed to the occasion for which they're to be worn.

Fine designers, like-Werle, who is responsible for my gowns on the hostess part of my NBC-TV program "The Loretta Young Shove," attain their reputation by emphasiz ing fine workmanship, mar velous fabrics, and classic lines.

O Playing tip one important feature of an ensemble will almost invariably lead to a smart appearance. If I have a sensational hat, I wear a very simple dress so that nothing detracts from my chapeau.

The family will have seen parts of all the continents except South America "We'll catch it on another- trip," travelled 40,000 miles, and spent approximately $15,250 in their unusual sightseeing and fact-finding trip Thwaites, a former racing driver, is author of 25 books, most of them novels and many best-sellers in his home land. "Ever since I was t child, I've been studying the atlas arid figuring how to make it smaller," he said, ex plaining his wanderlust. He and the missus original ly wanted to start their trip in 1938 "as sort of a delayed honeymoon" but as he ex plained the beginnings of World War II "a man named Hitler delayed things for while." They finally got go ing "when Roger was big enough to travel. Roger is now 14. Another son, Garry, 18, is preparing a little travel on his own. He is irt the mer chant Navy and a student of navigation at Southampton, England. First Leg The first leg of their trip took them 12,000 miles from London to Sydney by way of the Continent, the Middle East, India, and Ce16h. The second began in Vancouver, B.C.; brought them across Canada and part of the United States, and into New York for a couple bf weeks.

He will continue by car intd Africa, across the Sa hara and on home. Mrs. Thwaites and Roger .will go by ihip the rest bf the way.

Survey Shows Teenagers Have Craving to be Liked New York A craving to be liked, an urge to conform and a kind of passive ariti-iri-tellectualism these attitudes characterize today's teenagers according to the results of a nationwide survey centered on U.S. kgh school young sters made by Drs. H. H. Rem itters and D. H. Radler of Pur due university. Results of the survey are the basis of an ar ticle in Scientific American. "As individuals, our na tion's youngsters consistently value others' opinions above their own," said Drs. Rem mers and Radler this week. "Fewer than half questioned in our survey, which accu rately represented all high school grades across the coun try, claim they think things out for themselves. No more than 18 per cent are willing to say that their tastes are quite different from those of their friends. Most have a horror of being branded an 'oddball.' Yet, in spite of these admissions, most teenagers declare that their freedom is not too limited. "Our soundings appear to have uncovered some of the roots of anti-intellectualism in the U.S. Almost three-quar ters of the high school stu dents believe that the most important thing they can learn in school is 'how to get along with people.' Only 14 per cent place academic learn ing first. In a recent poll oi a representative sample of college students, we found that the same attitude pre vails at the university level: 60 per cent would rather be popular than brilliant. Some 51 per cent believe that stud ents with low grades are more liVelv to be Donular than those Who get good marks; 72 per cent believe that the develoDment of a well-round ed personality is the main purpose of education; 71 per cent feel that personality. counts more than grades wnen it comes to looking for a job. Disdain Learning v "The disdain for learning shows up : most sharply and most dismayingly in the at titude of teenagers toward science and scientists. Forty per cent of the high school students think that the earth is the center of the universe! Sixty-three per cent belive the earth's circumference is 125,000 miles! TVIore than a third think, scientific worK boring; 25 per cent think sci entists as a group 'are' more than a little bit odd'; about 30 ner cent believe that a scientist cannot enjoy life or raise a normal family. "In a poll in October, 1957 the month of Sputnik I 68 per cent of the teenagers said they would not like to oe scientists. A majority asserted that scientists are likely to be radical and that they take no thought for the consquences of their work. "Most disquieting is the fact that views of this kind are just as common among stud ents of high scientific apti tude as among those who have no interest in science. The climate of popular opin ion among the nation's youth undoubtedly is keeping many able boys and girls out of science. Popularity Stressed "We can venture some com- BUSINESS 411 Main,.

Frank left Medford by plane Friday to spend a vacation in south ern California with their daughter, Miss Meta Jean Frink.

The return trip will be by way of resorts in Nevada. ments oft the aspects of Our culture reflected in this sur vey, the latest of a series we have been conducting annual ly since 1941 The attitude of the youngsters derives in large part, of course, from their parents, it has been re marked that 'today's parents make children tiel guilty nbt so much about violations of inner standards as about fail ure to be popular,'. . that is, failure to get along with oth er children. It has been stated that . . pressures to conform Which appear in the home and school are re-enforced by our mass media. Advertising, ded icated to increasing mass con sumption, deliberately bases its appeal primarily upon our need for identification with the vast majority. It inveigles us to purchase the products which are most popular the most widely smoked cigarette, the largest selling automobile.
