Teeners Say

Voting Is |B

Important

Subdebs, Squire - ‘Would Register

By JEAN MANEY WOULD you take the trouble to) register to vote in the next election? Hundreds of Indianapolis) citizens proved that.they would] by standing in long lines in the

courthouse.

The three teen-agers inter-

viewed this week say that they!

would certainly make the effort to register. They believe that it's a duty and a privilege to vote and they're just waiting for their 21st birthdays. ; Jackie Williamson is’ a senior| fi Washington High School. Her parents are Mr. and Mrs. Harold E. Williamson, 50 N. Pershing} Ave. “I think every| citizen of voting | age should exer. | cise the privilege| " of voting. When| "I'm 21 I'm going| to register and) i vote. I think I'll! register early, : though, and avoid those last minute lines. I

Jackie

-think we need a change in our

national administration though I don't think the threats of communism and . socialism are as great as some people do—this scare talk is overdone,” Jackie says. She would like the voting age lowered to 18. “Our govern-| ment classes in high school are fine and I think they prepare us to vote intelligently even at 18." Jackie is convinced .that it's important to vote in local and state

- elections as well as in national

ones and she thinks the primary is vital.

A member of the Booster staff, at Washington, Jackie belongs to, the. Washingtonians, a club for| senfor girls; the Honor Society | “She's also a member of the PEGS Club. | i She wants a career as a singer and hopes to study music next! year in the Jordan Music College.

ANOTHER senior in Washington, Don Cozart is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Cozart,| 757 N. Tremont Ave, — Don thinks * that 21 is young enough for the voting age and he's sure that he'll vote in every election as soon as he's eligible. “I think it's your duty to i vote and it's cer- } | tainly time for a change now. Twenty vears is too long fof any one party to be, in power. I think that this coun-! try is becoming socialized and| that there's too much federal in-| terference in state government.! The local and state elections are] just as important to me as the; national elections and it seems to me that voting in the primary is very necessary,” Don states. He's a member of the Honor| Society, Student Association and] Letterman's Club at WHS and! he played right end on the school football team. Don plans . to] study engineering at Purdue Uni-| versity after graduation. » ” ” | “I THINK that it's most important to vote in all elections— national, state, local and pri-| mary,” Martha Curtiss says. She's a senior in| Washington and] the daughter of] Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin E. Cur-| tiss,” 1262 Oliver| Ave. “I'd like tol vote now and I “think we do Teed | some changes in the national scene. Socialism fs growing in this country. think some of the ideas promoted by Socialists are good, but we| don’t want to become completely |

And I would definitely take the trouble to vote—it's every citizen's duty,” Martha says. Martha is also a member of Washingtonians, the Honor Society, Colonial: Chorus. and the Glee Club.and she belongs to the Tau Phi Lambda Sorority. She wants to study voice after graduation from Washington at either I U. or Jordan.

~ Teen Problems \ Spring Means Party Time

Lent Y Over It's Play Season

By JEAN THE SPRING party season is at hand. There'll soon be entertainments galore for a popular couple,

But most of these doings cost -

dough. A steady-dating guy is bound to have financial problems, He simply can’t afford tickets for every shindig. So the question of Dutch Treating comes up again. How can a gal suggest sharing costs without hurting a guy’s natural masculine pride? With your One and Only, cooperative dating can seem normal and natural, Sister—provided you handle the situation tactfully. Naturally, no suave feminine waves money around under her date's nose or before other people. The question of paving must be decided ahead of time. Tickets should be bought in advance or the. cou-

possession.

yn = IN APPROACHING the subject of Dutch Treating, try the casual approach: At Prom time, John are going Dutch, idea, don’t you think?” Or after a super-duper date, “What a swell party! Must have
