eo :: Sitter Complains Of Moronic" Title By ANN LANDERS . Dear Ann Landers: I am a member of the "modern institu tion called Sitters." But I cer tainly do not1 consider myself an "irresponsl .h 1 e. moronic, hollow headed, impudent, vacu um cleaner with iceth." I know exactly the type of woman who would 'complain. She is the one who 'greets the sitter at the door and tells her to "feed the kids some thing and put them in bed when they look tired." When she is half out the door she remembers that "Susio is next door and Debbie is out in the neighborhood some' place." when you go to the kitchen you find the sink filled with dirty disn- cs. You have to wash plates to cive the children their supper, Why she worries about a sitter eating her out of house and home, I wouldn't know, because there's nothing much in her refrigerator. She forgets to leave a calling number and if you needed her in an emergency it would be just too bad. She promises to be home by midnight, but something always happens to detain her until 2:30 or later, wnen sue goes to pay you she discovers she has nothing smaller than a $20 bill so she owes vou till next time. And these are the women who complain the loudest about sitters. FULL UP Dear Ann Landers: My husband is a working man and we are in modest circumstances. Our daugh ter is marrying a fine young fellow in January ana we want io give her as pretty a wed ding as we can afford. Wn have Dlanncd a church cer emony and a dinner for relatives and close friends only. The groom's mother sent her list yes terday end we almost fainted. She had 220. We kept our list down to 45. ' When I phoned to express sur prise at the size of her family she explained that her family is rather small and that most of the people on the list are her husband's customers. We hate to have trouble at the outset, but we can't afford din ner for a crowd like this, What shall we do?-DISTRESSED Dear Distressed: You are pay ing for the dinner and U Is your prerogative lo decide how far you want to go. Since these people wish to use the wedding as a business booster suggest they give a reception alt er the honeymoon. They can then Invite the whole town If they wish. For now, explain that their list must be pared lo 55 which gives them 10 more than you have. Dear Ann Landers: Will you please print your opinion of a woman who is past 40 years of age and is still wearing her high school class ring? She wears her wedding band and diamond ring on one hand the class ring on the other. I say this is just plain corny. What do you say? ONE OF THE GANG Dear One: It doesn't bother me a bit. Why are you so excited? Apparently this woman attaches a great deal of sentiment to her class ring which strikes me as a pretty good reason for wearing It. Are your parents too strict? You can benefit from the experi ences of thousands of teen-agers if you write for Ann Landers' booklet, "How To Live With Your Parents," enclosing with your request 20 cents in coin and a long, self addressed, stamped envelope. Ann Landers will be glad (o help you with your problems Send them to her in care of this newspaper enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope. For fafonsrno MM ICC Hears Boxcar Lack SALEM (AP)-There is a criti cal shortage of railroad boxcars in Western lumber areas, Gov. Mark O. Hatfield said in a tele gram Monday to the Interstate Commerce Commission. He blamed Eastern railroads for the shortage. . The governor s message to Ev erett Hutchinson, ICC chairman, said the shortage is causing hardships. He said the major need Is for wide and double door boxcars. Those cars owned by Western rail roads, the governor said, he had been advised, are being held in the East in violation of ICC rules. One of the reasons, he said, Is that this enables Eastern roads to out off repairing their own cars. i He said the ICC ought to investi sale misuse of Western equipment and order return of cars neeaea In the West.

Grewo was asked about reports Adenauer wants to visit Kennedy as soon as possible. "It is a little too early to talk about that." he replied.
