Don't Throw Anything Away WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 1963 Lenny R. If her affair breaks up, I think I'd take her back. Frank R. If he ever takes back that tramp, it means lie likes to suffer. Lenny R. Five weeke ago my wife flew to Mexico and got a divorce. She pla'n ned to marry a man she met three years ago in the local luncheonette. She says he is her ideal, they have the same tastes and interests. But look at the picture now: We have two children, a bov 11 and a girl seven. The man is mar ried and has two children also. The day I moved out of the apartment, he moved In! I understand his wife won't divorce him unless he signs over the house they own. He wants her to sell and give him his half. Meanwhile, I'm wor ried about my children living in the middle of all that. I get the feeling this thing will break up and my wife will ask me to lake her back. In spite of everything, I'd be inclined to say yes. Frank R. Mv hi nt her talks as thoueh he's shnll. shocked. How can a man in full possession of his faculties even consiedr getting back into the clutches of such a woman? He stuck it out for 13 during most of which his wife was just fishing around for o. two! She left high school to marry Lenny, and I'm con vinced it was heeai isp thn lusc failing in her studies, not be cause she loved my brother or was readv for marriacp I warned him, at the time, that she was just a dizzy kid. But he was 25, had a good job, and wouldn't listen to me. He should snv priori riH. dance to her. see a lnwvni- as to his rights with the chil dren, and carve a new life for himself now. The Council- "1 IW a lawyer in the house?" is the Obvious onener fnr Ihic Hie. cussion. Certainly Mrs. R. has une, we nope L,enny Has one, and we'd advise Frank to get one if he continues airing those accusations, epithets, and innuendoes ahnnt hi v. sister-in-law. She and her law yer may decide to refute him via a suit for libel, or defama tion of character. Regardless of Franlt'e nnin. Ion and advice. Lranv some real feeling for his wife and cnuoren. Perhaps he feels some portion of snilt fnr ihp situation, if only because he aian t start fighting back many years act). At anv ralp we'll limit our remarks to helpful suggestions for this distressed ex-husband. Please do nnlhinp hnaHinnrt headstrong, or rash. Tackle this tangle steo-bv-sten With the aid of a lawyer, determine wneuicr the Mexican divorce is valid in vour stale A (n the children, your ex-wife's morals may not give you as easy a case for gaining their custody as you Imagine. Courts cling to a theory that "a bad wife can still bn a good mother." In applying for custody of your son and daughter, you'd have to prove that you could provide a bel ter nome tor them than they have with their mother. Next you come to the long range prosnecls. Will thio get a divorce? Hi wifn ha set up a stumbling-block money! And even if he were free, would he still n,,,, your ex-wife, taking on the ii.--,iJuii5iDiiiiy ior supporting in whole or in part, his pres ent family, your family, and a future family? Hmmm . . . It's no wonder that your mind leaps ahead (o a vision of your former wife begging you to take her back. And already you're trying to frame your answer. Our best advice, should this happen, is to say Yes on one big condition: that you bolh sign up for Marriage Coun seling first, so as to learn, at this lale date, how much more than mere sexual attraction Is required for a real marriage. THE HARD WAY Maxton, N.C. - 1PD - Mo torist M. B. Stroud collided with a milk truck at an inter section Tuesday while on his way to work. "I was just hoping Id run into you." Stroud told the milkman when he regained conscious ness, "I wanted to pay my mik bill " Detroit Student Dies of Exposure Detroit, Ore. - (UPli - A De troit High school student died in the snow near here Mon day after spending Sunday night lost with his brother on a slope of Dome Rock, four miles northwest of here. The body of Dale Guy Staler. 16. was found beside a logging road. Hcrry Staler, who hiked out for help, was in good con dition despite 21 hours in the freezing weather. West Advises Records Be Kept By Persons Handling Filberts By DICK WEST United Press International Washington - turn - Hand led any filberts lately? If so, be certain you "keep records of all filberts received, held and disposed of as pre scribed by the filbert control board." I per sonally have not handled any filberts,, but I have shelled a few peanuts. It be hooves me therefore "to main tain detailed records and keep copies of reports per taining to the shelling of each lot of peanuts including rec ord of peanuts retained by the shelter. " "Filbert handlers" and 'peanut shellers" are among the 848 groups that are cur rently required to keep rec ords for the 10 executive de partments and 18 indepen dent agencies of the federal government. These are, of course, in ad dition to the records that the 10 executive departments and 18 independent agencies keep for themselves. A handy, thought pro voking list of the records that private citizens and organi zations are required to keep has just been published by the General Services adminis tration, which itself requires the keeping of 11 different types of records. Among those who must keep records for the General Services administration are parties who sell the govern ment manganese, mica, beryl, asbestos, columbium - tantal um and mercury. A beryl dealer apparently has to keep even more records than a filbert handler. The Maritime administra tion requires the keeping of 29 types of records. These include "receipts for the quantities of slop chest items delivered aboard ship." Double Record Keeper I am not certain just what sort of items go into a slop chest, but if anyone filled a slop chest with filberts he presumably would have to keep records for the Agricul ture department as well as the Maritime administration. If you have a permit to frighten migratory birds, you should keep records for the Fish and Wildlife service. The same is true for "per sons authorized to kill de parting purple gallinules in Louisiana." Importers of India waler buffalo hides should keep records for the Customs Bu reau, as should importers of rapesced oil. It is the Federal Aviation agency, however, that requires airplane makers to keep records of "flight flutter tests." The Securities & Exchange commission has a require ment pertaining to "records prepared or maintained by others than person required to maintain and preserve them." I don't know what that means exactly, so my advice to you is: Don't throw any thing away. UJlUill!! This is a pie. Color it golden brown. Let it remind you that it's easy as pie to get a loan from " x - Iky y j HONEYMOONING - Actress Hedy Lamarr, 47, (above) and Attorney Lewis W.
