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.
The last chapter aplly is
titled-Not the End-a Beginning.

Showers Walcome
New York - (UPD - One way
to give the bride-to-be a head
start on housekeeping for two
is by giving her a housewarm
Ing shower.
The gifts may turn out to be
more practical than pretty,
but they will be heartily wel
comed, bridal experts say.
Electric appliances, among
them coffee maker, toaster
and steam iron, are popular
gifts for the kitchen.
So are chafing dishes, oven
proof serving dishes, or can
dlewarmer carafes. If the
guest of honor is a career
girl, a weekend brunch or
colfee party is suggested. The
timing will give the bride-to-be
a party, as well as a free
afternoon.
Working Woman
Washington -(UPD- By 1970,
an estimated two out of five
women in the United States
will be working outside the
Home, the Department of
Health, Education and Wel

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.
