Dear George, How do I tell my parents that I have lost my license, was caught drinking in the residence halls, and have now been lricked-out of on-campus housing? I have to go home for a wedding in three weeks and I now have no way of getting home for it. What am I supposed to do? -Poor Unfortunate Soul Dear Gloria, The Spring Semi-Formal is fast approaching and my boyfriend refuses to go. Should I hurt his feelings and go with a friend, or should I just forget the night altogether? -Caught in the Middle Dear Caught in the Middle If you want to go to the Semi, there is no reason why you shouldn’t. Explain to your boyfriend how much going to the Semi means to you. If he still doesn’t want to go, talk to him about going to the Semi with a freind. If he doesn’t want to go he shouldn’t spoil your desire to. If he really cares about you and doesn’t want to go, he will let you go to the Semi with a freind so your night isn’t ruined. -Gloria Dear Poor Unforunate Soul Wait no longer. Tell your parents what happened as soon as possible. The longer you wait, the worse their reaction will be. Parents want their children to stay out of trouble, but they will always be there if you fall. -Always Listening, Goerge Overheard Quotablea "Think of it as an intellectual burp" -Student on a brainstorm, result or Dr. Price’s English Class "I don’t understand why we worry so much about getting beer, should concentrate more on getting boyfriends.

HAZLETON TRAILWAYS TRAVEL CENTER WA! 717-4594)787 Dear Gloria, My boyfriend and I have been "going out" for four months now and have been having sex for the last few weeks. With this AIDS scare now, I’m worried. How can I ask him to get tested? -Worried, Scared, & Anxious Dear Worried, Scared, & Anxios First off , your taking the first step by being scared. Most girls would just leave things as they are because they’re scared of what their boyfriend might say or do. Believe it or not many guys are also concerned about getting AIDS. Sometime soon when the two of you are just sitting talking or doing nothing ask him straight out if he would mind getting checked out. Getting checked out doesn’t just mean for AIDS, there are other things you can contract by having sex with someone. If if would make him feel better tell him you will also get checked out. It is always better to be safe then sorry. -Gloria TOOONTO CANADA BUFFALO NY jfr—.ROCHESTER NY SHiPPENSf CHAMBERSBI HAGERSTOWN Capital Dear Gloria, My father told me he would pay my college tuition as long as I didn’t get in trouble. Surprise, Surprise. I recently found out from my doctor that I am pregnant. I want to keep my baby and still be able to attend college, but if my father finds out he would be extremely upset with me and cut off my tuition. Please help me! What should I do? -Desperately Seeking Advice Dear Desperately Seeking Advice It is better to tell your father now about your problem then to have him find out in six months when you start showing. If you tell him straight out he might be a little more understanding. Worse comes to worse you’ll have to take off from school and get a job until you have your baby and can afford college on your own. Who knows your father might surprise you and help you out anyway he can. Good Luck with your talk. -Gloria PAGE 3 k NEW vom F CITY
