BECHTOLD UPI Financial Editor New York (UPD The na tion's 13-to-19 year olds - the wealthiest adolescent genera- tics in history -may hold the key to eco nomic success in the 1960s. These 20 million teen agers last year spent more than $11 bil lion. Added to BechtoM tha billions . spent on teens by others, and the influence .teen-agers exert on family upending, the im pact on American commerce becomes staggering. And many marketing ex perts feel that this is just the beginning of a golden era in teen spending. The baby boom of the late 1940s now is pouring more than one million 13-ycar-olds into our population figures each year, and by 1970 we will have some 27 million teen-agers with an expected spending power of at least $14 billion, according to the Mennan Co., manufacturer of teen-age products. A look at how these young sters spent their money in the past gives a good idea of how they most likely will spend it in the future. The biggest expenditure ($3.2 billion) for teen-age girls last year was for clothing, with the average girl spend ing $300 on her clothes and shoes. Although they make up only 10 per cent of the female population, teen age girls accounted for 20 per cent of the spending on clothes. Although boys spent only an average of $163 each on their wardrobe, their total expenditures on clothing and furnishings reached a lofty $1.5 billion Boys spend heavily on auto mobiles. They spent more than $200 million of their own money on cars and gas - not including money provided for this purpose by their parents.

Cosmetics also ranked high on the adolescent shopping list. Mennan Co. research showed that teen-age girls ac count for seven cents of every dollar spent in this country for grooming and . cosmetic aids. Boys and girls together spend $300 million annually on cosmetics, Mennan said. A lion's share of the teen age spending money goes to leisure time activities. Al though they constitute 11 per cent of the, population, teen agers account for 50 per cent of movie attendance. They also support their favorite stars with their dollars, spend ing $200 million on fan club activities each year. And as any radio listener knows, popular music already has fallen under the domina tion of adolescents. Teens spend money on oth er people too, according to the bureau of advertising. They spend about $101 mil lion for Mother's Day; $68 million for Father's Day. Aside from their own pur chases (the under 20. group plays an important part in the spending of others. They in fluence the purchase of dozens of family items - from the couch in the living room to the family car, to the soap in the bathroom. One survey showed that 55 per cent of the teen-age girls questioned planned to exert thtiir Influence on the choice of the familys next car.

Watkins (Besisler and Tribun Syndicate-1961) Mrs. Green Lacewing Protects Eggs from Each Other Ridiculous as it seems, there is a common creature that ac tually elevates her eggs on a slender stalk to protect them from each other. Mrs. Green Lacewing at taches to each individual egg a long stalk, on top of which is perched the oval egg. This elevation above the leaf sur face, on which the eggs i are deposited, is to keep the new ly hatched larvae from eating each other. Usually the egg - stalk is about a quarter inch in length. The stalks are care fully separted by a little dis tance, thereby making it un likely the hatched larvae from one stalk will eat its little brother or sister. Will Stuff Itself -, If , the larvae -successfully lives throughout its eventful infancy, it will move to some part of the plant where plant aphids are plentiful. There it will stuff itself with the body juices of the plant-lice. When instinct tells it a change is imminent, it constructs a small, barrel - like cocoon, closes the door on top, ties it Nondenominational Pastor Succumbs Portland-(UPD-Funeral serv ices were held today for the Rev. Elbert D. Riddlck, 64, pastor of the nondenomina tional Church of the Good Shepherd. He died last Thursday. In August of 1955 the Rev. Mr. Riddick withdrew his church from the Episcopal Diocese of Oregon. , securely and goes to sleep; the deep slumber of transfor mation. If nothing disturbs the little cocoon and the chemistry of change pursues its normal course, the larvae will change its shape and mode of life. Soon it will become a Green Lacewing, with red-gold eyes and lacy wings. Before, the larvae went into its deep trance it purposely hinged the lid at the top of the cocoon. The developed pu pa is equipped with sharp, cutting mandibles capable of severing the silken threads that hold the lid in place. Once the bonds are cut the lid flies open on its gauzy hinge and the insect crawls forth. Now begins its rather brief life in the summer darkness. But its troubles are not lessened. Actually they are multiplied, for now the night flying birds and bats are con stant enemies. The glint of the iridescent red-gold eyes, shining in the darkness, offers I a tempting target for insect eating animals. Like Light All the lacewing Insects, of which there- are half a hun dred varieties, are slow flying and attracted to lights. Many kill themselves by flying, un til they drop, around street lights. The lacy wings of these night - flying creatures are also a source of great danger, as they are heavily veined and attract various mites who feed on them. From elevated eggs, to bar rel cocoons with hinged lids, to hungry mites the very beau tiful Green Lacewing leads a short but hectic life. 14 mkf You Can . Exercise Your Face Yes, exercise your face.
