Dear Abby...
It Takes Two To Tango!
by Abigail Van Buren
DEAR ABBY: Could you please tell me why a man asks a woman to a dance when he can't dance? When I accepted this date to go dancing, I didn't think it was necessary to ask the man if he could dance, but when he got me out on the floor I thought he was looking! He leads with his right shoulder and right hip. He just shoved me along the dance floor, paying no attention to the music whatsoever. Then he pivoted and started to shove me backwards in the same fashion. By the end of the evening I was exhausted. He has a nice personality and I would like to see him again, but I don't care to dance with him any more. How can I gracefully get out of dancing with him without losing him entirely?
GLADYS
DEAR GLADYS: Suggest that you both join a dancing class (it could be fun) and turn him over to the instructor for some "basic training." If he doesn't agree to "lessons," tell him you are enchanted with his conversation and would rather talk than dance.
DEAR ABBY: I go with a boy who doesn't have a car of his own and we have to double-date with a boy who has one. My boyfriend calls and asks me to get a date for his friend but, Abby, his friend is such a freep that no girl will go out with him more than once. I have to beg my girlfriends to do me a favor and go out with this boy so I can go with my own boyfriend. Is there a solution to my problem? I hope so. I have run out of girls.
PICKLEMENT
DEAR PICKLEMENT: Your boyfriend can either find a boy with a car who is more acceptable, or you two can take the bus. No one should be "taken for a ride" just because he needs the transportation.
DEAR ABBY: I have been married 14 months and my problem is that my husband won't give me any money. If a bill comes to $30.25, that is exactly what he gives me. I have tried to talk to him but he just walks outside. He says a wife does not need any "spending money." I get no allowance and every piece of clothing is what I had when I was married. Another thing. My husband says the reason he never tells me he loves me is because it sounds cheap.
BETTY
DEAR BETTY: If anything sounds "cheap" it is your husband. A broken home can be very expensive in terms of money and emotions. I recommend one wise investment. A marriage counselor.
DEAR ABBY: I am a boy 15 years old and as long as I can remember I have wanted to dress up like a girl. Don't get me wrong.

DEAR ABBY: I am a boy 15 years old and as long as I can remember I have wanted to dress up like a girl. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing the matter with me. I don't want to BE a girl but the clothes that girls wear attract me. Why can't boys wear pretty clothes? Why do we have to wear baggy pants and dull colors and rough material? And why can't we touch up our hair a little bit and improve our looks with cosmetics like girls do? Again, let me say there is nothing odd about me, I am—

Oklahoma Triples in Brass As Pilot, Soldier, Clergyman
By HARRY J. STATHOS Unified Press International FT. BENNING, Ga. (UPI) — Aviator... Infantryman... Clergyman... Any one of these positions would be a full-time job for an ordinary individual But the Rev. Paul Strang of Oklahoma City, Okla., is no ordinary individual.
Strang is so extraordinary, in fact, that he serves as a full-time civilian and a part-time soldier. And he goes even a little bit further. Not only is Strang an infantry captain, but he is also an Army pilot.
Strang recently was awarded a diploma from the U.S. Army Infantry School's associate officers course at Ft. Benning, Ga. He is probably the only clergyman to hold the U.S. Army's Combat Infantryman and Army Aviation Pilot Badges.
Strang — who is associate pastor of the Wesley Methodist Church in Oklahoma City — has been serving with the Third Company, First Student Battalion, School Brigade at Ft. Benning.
While most student officers find it a full-time job to keep pace with the rigid academic requirements of the Infantry School, he found time to make frequent trips to Ft. Benning's Lawson Army Airfield for proficiency flights and maintenance of his pilot's rating.
He also managed to squeeze in some time for religious activities. The minister conducted services at Ft. Benning, held the regular Sunday evening services at the East Highland Methodist Church in Columbus, Ga., assisted with the Sunday morning services and taught the college - age Sunday School class.
Strang proved he was no ordinary individual during World War II and the Korean conflict. He enlisted in the U.S. Army in early 1942 and served with counter-intelligence until 1945 when he moved into France, as an in-
NEW YORK (UPI) — Question: What kind of music do the teenagers in Ireland dig?
Answer: The same kind American teenagers dig.
Our authority are the eight members of an Irish dance band, the Clipper Carlitons, who recently visited New York and Chicago to play at dances that preceded the St. Patrick's Day festivities and, in passing, to catch up on some of the sounds that are currently popular.
"The surprising thing about it," said Hugo Quinn, a trumpet player and spokesman for the Clippers, "is that the youngsters over here are so much like the ones we play for at home."
Quinn said the band, basically a Dixieland group, has kept up with rock 'n' roll, calypso, chacha, skiffle music and "cool" jazz.
"Whatever trend is popular in America becomes popular in Ireland, so we've been through all the trends," said Quinn, a stocky, 30-year-old crew-cut laddy from Strabane in County Tyrone.
"Right now," he added, "there's no real definite craze over there. We've found out that it's the same way over here."
The Clippers also reported that similarities in the musical tastes of the Irish and Americans extend even to language. "We use the word 'dig' a lot, just like musicians over here," Quinn said.
"There are only two differences in our jive talk. We call people 'heads' instead of 'cats.' In Ireland we use 'cat' as an adjective meaning 'bad.' If something is 'cat,' it's bad.
"In New York the other night, we played 'Bird Dog' and at the end, we sing as the tag line, 'And that's 'cat.' Nobody knew what we were talking about. At home, it always gets a laugh."

The minister conducted services at Ft. Benning, held the regular Sunday evening services at the East Highland Methodist Church in Columbus, Ga., assisted with the Sunday morning services and taught the college - age Sunday School class.
Strang proved he was no ordinary individual during World War II and the Korean conflict. He enlisted in the U.S. Army in early 1942 and served with counter-intelligence until 1945 when he moved into France, as an infantryman, with the 70th Infantry Division. He was wounded, hospitalized and afterwards transferred to the Army Air Corps.
Strang was discharged from the Army in 1946 and returned to his pre-war job with General Foods in Pittsburgh, Pa., where he remained until August, 1950, when he was sent directly to Korea.
During the Korean conflict, the 38-year-old clergyman logged 383 combat hours in the U.S. Army's light aircraft. He was shot down five times and was hospitalized after the last one.
After returning to the United States in October, 1951, the Army officer was assigned to the U.S. Army Aviation School at Ft. Sill, Okla., as an instructor.
In April, 1954, Strang was put on inactive duty. He completed his education at Oklahoma City University and then was ordained as a Methodist minister.

Registration of Boats By Telephone Banned
SANTA ANA (OCNS) — Orange County boat owners will no longer be able to register boats by means of a telephone call to the marine division of the county assessor's office.
The practice was discontinued today because too many people were fibbing about the size of the boat, or where it is being kept.
Boats which are kept in this county are subject to property taxes and must bear registration stickers that indicate current taxes have been paid.
Beginning today, boat owners may either register a boat by applying in person at the county court house or by requesting an application blank in the mail.
Mailed requests for registration application forms must include a self addressed envelope.
Further details may be obtained by telephone from the Marine Assessor's office, but the registration cannot be handled by phone.

BUENA PARK SCHOOL
By Orange County News Se vice
A man who turned to narcotics, taking Benzedrine pills by he dozen and smoking large quantities of marijuana to sleep, following the death of his wife by cancer, was placed on probation Friday, by Superior Judge Robert Gardner.
This was the sentence imposed on Richard Joseph Garcia, 24, former gardener at Buena Park High School.
Garcia, who presently has a Santa Ana address, was arrested in an Anaheim motel room by police officers from those two cities.
Reportedly looking for a weapon, they found a .22 caliber rifle. The officers uncovered, as well, two pounds of marijuana, 2,000 Benzedrine pills, plus numerous rolled cigarettes.
Rumbles had it that Garcia had been peddling the narcotics to high school students. Investigation could not substantiate this story, and no witnesses or evidence could be uncovered.
Instead, through investigation and in talking to the deendant, probation officers disclosed that Garcia had been in deep depression since the loss of his wife, Idealde, who died in 1957 after a long fight with cancer.

cancer.
The disease struck while Garcia was in the Navy and he would often make long trips on liberty to be with his wife, whom he showed a great deal of affection and love for, it was reported.
To keep him going, the defendant reportedly started using "Bennies" and when his wife died in 1957, he lost all his zest for life. According to probation officers,
the defendant started using large quantities of the pills. Later he turned to marijuana as well, so as to sleep nights.
When, arrested, Garcia told officiers he was taking about eight pills at a time, four times a day. He was smoking the marijuana in a pipe, using enough for 20-30 cigarettes in a day.
The defendant claims because of his tremendous use of the drugs, he resorted to buying large quantities in Mexico to supply his needs rather than deal with local peddlers.
Various witnesses interviewed by the probation officers constantly stressed the man's devotion to his wife. One woman, who met the couple while Mrs. Garcia was at the hospital following an operation, was said to have been so impressed by the couple that she continued visiting them after they left.
The same story was told by all who knew Garcia and his wife. Based on these facts plus other information, the report recommended probation and also advised psychiatric care for the defendant.
The Santa Ana man had no prior record.
