Mrs. S. M. She makes me

Lorraine M. I am 14 and
I'm at the stage where I'm
having terrific fights at home.
My friends all tell me they
have fights too but I'm sure
they can't be as bad as the
ones I have.
I realize it is natural for
parents to want to stop
you from everything you want
lo do like staying up late,
having a lot of dates, using
too much makeup, and all of
that. But is it natural for a
girl's mother to call her a
fool, the world's worst pain
in the neck, and other things
like that?
My mother hurts my feel
ings something terrible every
time we have an argument.
She never apologizes no
matter how wrong she is.
Mrs. s. M. Lorraine was a
nice, well-behaved girl until
two years ago. Then she
started going out with a ter
rible group of girls loud
mouthed, silly and badly be
haved. She has changed so
much I hardly know she is
the same girl.
When I criticize her the
least bit she flies into a rage.
She says I don't understand
her and I am deliberately try
ing to make things hard for
her, and that I favor her
younger brother and. sister.
Sometimes she makes me so
furious I do say harsh things
to her. I don't think a mother
should have to apologize to a
daughter for a thing like
that.
I do my best as a mother,
but I think I'm failing with
Lorraine.
The Council: It appears to
us Lorraine is going through
a period of dislike of herself.
Evidently she shows herself
to her mother at her worst and
wants her mother to show
love and respect in return
so she can feel a little better
about herself.
Mrs. S. M. should try to
have a little more patience
with Lorraine. She should
realize the "loud-mouthed,
siliy, badly behaved girls"
Lorraine has taken up with
are probably pretty much in
the same boat as her daughter.
They don't want to act loud
and silly and hate themselves
for it, yet somehow they feel
impelled to act this way.
These girls are all trying to
learn to act like young wom

to go about it. Childish games

Hollywood (UPI) Lone

Tom Parker, Elvis Presley's
press agent, mentor, discov
erer and guiding light.
With Elvis in tne Army de
fending the country, Colonel
Tom is like a cart without a
horse, an actor without a
stage.
But Parker still has his
voice. "Ah just dropped into
town for a week to finish my
'Kink Creole' snow job," he
said in his hominy, and grits
accent. "That's mah boy's new
movie. Ah been handing out
Elvis balloons, bumper stick

Association Recalled
A flamboyant character of
the Barnum and Bailey stripe,
Parker joined forces with the
gyrating stomp and holler
singer some three years ago,
shortly after Presley crawled
out of a truck cab to begin
his singing career.
He built the gawky young
ster into a multimillion-dollar
star with exploitation stunts
worthy of the old snake oil
bamboozlers.
"Elvis was good enough for
me when he was out of the
Army," Barker said loyally,
attempting to smother a sob,
"and he's good enough for me
now. I'm not, even takin' on
any othah clients.
"Too many people jump off
the wagon when its stops and
try to get back on when it
rolls again. Me, I'll just grease
the wheels.
