MEDFORD, OREGON Decent Juveniles Theme of Book New York - (UPD - Juvenile delinquents and beatniks rate only a passing glance in a new book about the younger generation. What rates: decent juven lies and young men and worn' en many times more numer ous than the beats and de linquents. Author Claire Cox tips her hand in the title: "The Up beat Generation" (Prentice- Hall, Inc.). From start to finish-184 pages later - Miss Cox sings the praises of what's high about the hopes and examples o the generation whose be ginnings lie in the depths of the depression, World War II, the Korean and the cold wars. She finds the "upbeats" far from disenchanted and not about to give up the ghost- regardless of the tensions of the times. The author, a United Press International feature writer, proves in the text that young people are emerging from psychological fallout shelters. "Their venturesome Ideal ism is returning . . . ," she reports. Further clues to the con tents come from the chapter titles In "Upbeat Generation." Samples include the follow ing: -You Need Not Be a Foot hall Hero, the Junior Joiners, Project Youth, There is Noth ing Dull About Jack, For God and Country, Young Men in a Hurry.

Games Authority's Mail Is Filled With Problems By PATRICIA McCORMACK United Press International New York -HTD- William S. Root, a big card expert, knows how to keep ketchup off playing cards - and also how to settle a man who tosses the deck at his wife during a frightfully serious game. Root - six feet, eight inches tall - faces such problematical situations daily when he sits down to answer mail directed to him by quizzical players across the country. As games authority for the Association of American Play ing Card Manufacturers, the arbiter the players look up to also settles arguments about approximately 600 games. "But sometimes I feel more like the lovelorn columnist of the card world instead of a card expert," Root said in an interview. The letter about ketchup on cards came from a Gary, Ind., mother. Her teenagers ate hamburgers while playing card games. "I just told her lo have the children eat before play ing," Root said. The query concerning the husband wbo showered his wife with cards came from an Oshkosh, Wis., housewife. She wrote: "My husband dealt a gin rummy hand and wouldn't let me cut the cards. So he im mediately went gin. When I said it was a misdeal, he threw the cards in my face. What should I do?" Root answered: "No cut is the unkindest cut of all. You have a right to cut the cards." A New York City woman complained that her husband usually wins at a weekly poker game played by a group of married couples. "But I always lose and that makes him angry," she la mented. "I really don't think I am that bad a player. How can I convince him?" Root told the woman to study some books about pok er. And if the game didn't improve, he suggested she in vest in lessons. If the woman couldn't become a winner after that, she was urged to consider that her forte might be knitting. , A Kansas City housewife's problem: hubby, jolly during weekly bridge games for the last 25 years, recently has taken to snoozing during the game. "Twenty-five years is a long time," Root answered. "The next time you sit down to play, shake him up. Announce that the game will be ca nasta." Root, a life bridge master, majored in electrical engi neering at the University of Miami. His size, an advantage in college basketball, can be a problem at the card table. "I have to sit with my knees just at the edge of the table," he said. "If I sit with the legs under the table it's more than a tight squeeze. I can see my opponent's cards!" Root's found that most quarrels about cards originate with women. At least, more women than men write to have him settle arguments. "I don't know that it means women are more argu mentative," he said. "But I do know that I keep the peace in my house by not playing cards with my wife. The temptation to yell 'stupid' is too great when your wife makes a mistake." The card expert said ha gets letters concerning the proper age for a child to start "Old Maid" or "Concen tration," games popular with juveniles. "Six years is not too young to learn simple games," he said. "My own children - one, three years and the other, nine months old - right now are attempting to digest cards. They have been caught chew ing on them." Dental floss is excellent for tying flies and is strong enough for the fisherman to use as an emergency line. HELP US!
