Better Lock Car
By ANN LANDERS
Dear Ann Landers: Last night
I had the worst experience of
my life. It could have cost me
my job, my rep-
, utation and my
family. Please
print this letter
for other young
men who mignt
find themselves
in the same
I spot.
I attended a
meeting in a downtown building
and parked my car on a side
street. When I returned to the
car I found a good-looking young
woman sitting in it. She was dead
drunk and I ordered her to get
out. Her answer was, "If you
don't drive me home I'll scream
that you attacked me and let's
see you get out of that one." I
decided to drive her home.
When we reached her house I
had to help her out of the car.
Her father met us at the door
and wanted to know who I was.
1 didn't give him my name but
I exDlained what had happened.
He said his daughter had pulled
this stunt before and that she
had been having emotional prob
lems.
The minute I got home I told
my wife and she said I should
have brought the girl to our
place. My father said 1 did tlie
right Hung. Did 17 How can
person best prolect himself In
such a situation?-VICTIMIZED
Dear Vic: Your first mistake
was leaving your car unlocked.
Last night It was an Intoxicated
young girl. Tonight it could be
an inlpxlcited young man
crouched on the floor with a mon
key wrench In his hand.
Your second mistake was get
ting into the car. The moment
you law someone sitting there
you should have gone for a police
man. Dear Ann Landers: 1 realise
imitation is the highest form of
flattery but I'm sick of being
copied.
Recently wo built a beautiful
home something we had planned
for years. Builders have slopped
to ask us where wo bought our
brick. Friends have copied our
landscaping Ideas, which were
original.
The latest incident is just
too much. The most distinctive
feature of our new home is the
windows. There are no windows
like ours in this city.
Now a family we barely know is
building two doors away and they
are in the process of putting in
windows exactly like ours. 1 am
furious. What can we do to pro
tect this one distinctive feature
of our home? THE COPIED
CAT
Dear Cat: Did you Invent the
window design and patent It? If
not, you have no right to an
"exclusive." People have been
stealing good Ideas since the
wheel and it will be ever thus,
Dear Ann Landers: The letter
from 14-year-old Bennie caught
my eye. He was the kid who
wanted to quit taking piano les
sons and was mad at you be
cause you advised his ma to
make him keep at it.
When I was little my ma start
ed me on piano lessons. Like
Bennie, I didn t want to practice
either. Unfortunately ma let me
win the battle and I gave up
before I got started.
Now I ra 18 years old and 1 m
still giving up before I get start
ed. I daydream a lot. When I
don't want to do something 1
put it off until tomorrow. When
tomorrow comes I don t do It.
1 realize now the importance
of self-discipline. I'm trying to
do better but it makes me mad to
think how much easier it would
have been if perseverance had
been drilled into me when I was
a little kid.-THE BLOB
Dear Blob: Thanks for strength
ening my point. I'm glad you
were able to finish this letter and
mall It! You're doing better already.

New Textbook? Make A Summary Of It

You should make a summary of
it.
That's right. The very first
thing you do with any textbook
(except math or foreign language
texts) is to summarize it. Sound
impossible? It's really easy; let's
sco how it works.
Your history text is a good start
er. First of all read the table of
contents. But read it thoughtful
ly. Try to see why the book is
organized as it is. See what the
major divisions of the book are.
Spot the relationships between,
the different units. Look into the
body of your book: there will
probably be an introduction to the
beginning of each major unit
that will summarize the period
under consideration, and there
may be another summary ap
pended to the end of each unit.
Take American history as an
example. From the table of con
tents and the unit heading, you'll
get a breakdown which is some
think like this: "pre-Revolution;
Revolution; problems of welding
states into a union; War of 1812;
westward expansion; the rise of
industrialism and the working
class; the rise of the frontier and
the pioneers; sectionalism the
conflict between the industrial
North and East, the West, the
aristocratic South the coming of
the Civil War; the Civil War;
Reconstruction; flexing interna
tional muscles and the Spanish
American War; involvement with
Europe and World War I; isola
tion; the Great Depression and
the New Deal; World War II. nu
clear power and the problems of
free world leadership.
That's simple, isn't it? Your1
summary should be more com
plete, of course. You can include
the most important persons and
dates involved as well. At the
same time, it's often productive
to consider the development of a
country as though it were a
person. In the summary of U.S.
history above what periods would

colonial times to divide the coun
try.
Your approach to each text will
be slightly different: In biology
