VasU, Managing Editor Homer Weed, Advertising M a i l e r Helene Schenlce Women’s Editor Jerry Bagatelle, Photo Editor ^ood dJLouqkt l O U ^ t By Nancy Jane Farreil, Guest Editorialist Perhaps the j*reatest problem facing ogr civilization today is the prime need for a basic fundamental under standing of our fellow man. But we, as a people, are too busy pursuing our own goals to realize this need. There is no thiic for casual conversation—there is lime for us to sit down and reason out the unilerlying prob lems facing the world in wliich we live. Our time is con- Mimed by more “iniportant” objectives wiiicl), of course, i uiulcrstandable; for in order to survive we must earn a livin lb oblaiti the necessities which keep us alive. But how “substantial” is our existence? VVliat is our goal? We, as individuals, nee<l firincr goals than just those ucliieved in the business world or (hose achieved in our efforts to improve our status in society. At this lime, more' so lhan ever before, wc liave got to sit dowiVuiul take a gootl look at ourselves and realize what is happening dr moreover what is not hoppening to ai<I us in acliieving ........ ............. — >— eving sidisfaction within ourselves. In the recent months our nation, as well as the rest of the world, has been balancing on the bi ink of war—and why? Hccau.se, each political power has certain goals and desires they wish to see fulfilled and arc using many various odds to attain these ends. They have proceeded-in sometimes unscrupulous ways ^n'their quest for more pow’er. Have we no iiiuids of our own? It seems as thougli have lost our power to think for ourselves. The trend Kiihconsciously is “let the other guy” <lo it. Yet we don’t agree with the way he solves the problem at hajul. Actually it is not too difficult to utulcrstaml other in dividuals. What seems to he difficult is finding the time lo gel to know another individiinl. Everything today i.s “casual.” W'o dress casually, we make casual fnemis, ami in generalizing-- we live “casually.” W'ilh all thi.s custialness, we deprive ourselves from so many of the more iinpoiiaiit elements of life. That is, anything liiat is deep-rooted. Teen-Age Timing Can yo imagine how silly it would look if you saw a twelve year old boy smoking a cigar, wearing a fedora and trying to look like adult male? Well It looks Just as silly when one sees a teen-ager (and many times a pre-teen) wearing nylon hosiery, high -heels and an adult halr-style. They not only look like midgets but they also appear to be “characters from another planet.\ The District Attorney’s office k presenUy waging a war against that type of bar-room which caters the very young. Even in some these places one notices these “I'm trying to look like a grown-up” teen-agers. I saw one such girl parading around Just before noon-time wear ing enough eye-shadow, eye-Uning and pan-cake make-up to make the old 'Theda Bara look like a naive farm girl. She looked extra siUy because her very sloppy “beat-nick'’ dress did not fit the theme of her attempted facial mask. In addition, she wore a home-made \Bee-hive” hair-do which made her look as if she had Just crawled out of some hole. Timing In dress and make-up for teen-agers is a very important thing. It can make an otherwise attractive girl look like a freak. News and Views Eddie VasU N A T I O V A l.
