THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—J TEEN AGERS NEED A BETTER BREAK, GORDON TELLS P-TA The world and soul of any Teen Ager is as high and as wide as the soul of the adult with whom he is | most cloesly related is high and | wide, members of the Parent- Teacher Association were told by Zach Gordon, Director of the Ju- s{neau Teen Age Club, last night Gordon, former USO director and for many years prior to World War II associated with youth groups in Philadelphia, was the speaker at a meeting of the P.-T.A. last eve- ning in the High School study room and his talk was on “Some Observations of Yuth.” Age of Confusion Contrary to the common belief that the so-caiicd iecuage is a care- free and happy period of an in- dividual's life, it is a particularly trying and confusing age beset with | fears and worries and to reach a well balanced adulthood the person is in needq of understanding |ana the constructive friendship of the adult world and which in too {many cases is sorely lacking, Gor- on said. The true age of adolescence is the | period at 13 and 14 years of age, Gordon pointed out. One hundred years ago adolescence was a period about one and a half years. Des- pite the fact that after 15 years of age the individual is biologically ian adult is given little considera- tion in our present soc¢iety which demands that contrary to nature's determination the period of adol- escence shall be carried out until | the individual is 19 or 20 years of age. Into The World Treated with condescension and iin too many instances lack of res- | pect during this period the teen- | ager is then thrust out into the | world and expected to take his place as a fullfledged adult. Teenagers, Gordon said, are sup- posed by the adult world to be a | group of selfish, self centered and hard boiled persons. The exact op- | posite is true, he declared. Although | they may give the wrong impres- | sion because they are at an age when the intent of the moment is most important, they are in reality, tender and kind and particularly | sensitive. 1 Need To Be Loved In pointing out How Not to Cheat a Teenager, Gordon said that what young people need most is to be loved. They are desperately, hungry to be loved and to be res- pected not only by adults but by {their own group as well, They | want to be admired and to feel | that they are secure, to be related | to some group or work that is im- | portant and that gives them a | feeling of belonging. The teenage | boy and girl want to be themselves and to be respected for themselves. Condescension on the part of .the adult to the teenager is one of the great tragedies in forestalling an understanding between the two | groups. Jealous Adults Gordon said that adults for the | most part are jealous of the teen. agers, theoretically because he b HXeves the teenager to enjoy a li sree of responsibility and filled with a carefree enjoyment of life, which as he had pointed out, he eaid, is certainly not the true state of the teenage world. Some of the most striking ex- amples of behavior in the adult in cheating the teenager are shown Gordon said by drunkeness in par- ents, many re-marriages on the part of one or the other parent, or both, lack of parental confiden in the child, lack of a show affection, lack of adult responsib- ility toward the adolescent. 1" In answer to questions from the | qudience Gordon said he did not believe the teenager is much af- fected by lack of & substantial economic background ~when the home is good. If economic troubles arise from durnkeness on the part of the parents the child suffers. Happy Homes It is not always the fault of the parent when a child “goes wrong.” There can be other contributing factors but Gordon said it is very seldom that a child “goes wrong” when the home is happy. Hand of Fellowship Young people need to have time to be together in their own age groups. st The teenager has all the poten- tialities as an adult but no exper- jence or background for living and it is in this fact they need the help, understanding and neighbor- ly friendship of the adult. Anyone who so desires can be indispensable to some young per- son if he will put understanding and the desire to help first. Any community can develop good will and leadership among adults towards being essential to the welfare of the adolescent. «The Teenagers deserve a better preak than they have received from most of us adults,” Gordon said. «“We are very proud of our coun- try and of our American way of life but we should look to our stewardship. It §s within our power to bring out the best in our teen- agers. Just as the Boy Scouts of America aim to put strength in Democracy, we can aim to put heart in democracy.” Preceding the talk by Mr. Gordon NEAU, ALASKA Parent-Teacher Association Presi- dent Florence Oakes announced | that the dates for the show at a| local theatre for the student schol- arship fund have been tentatively set for March 13, 14 and 15. The Association by a unanimous vote accepted the offer of the Board to be of any assistance re- quired in the Juneau Civilian De- fense program. The room attendance award was won by Miss Rosalind Herme's fifth grade. Following the meeting refresh- ments were served in the high school domestic science rooms by the mothers of the fourth grade students under the general chair- manship of Mrs. Niel Fritchman. In charg’ were Mrs. W. E. EIKins, ! chaimen and Mesdames E. C, Haw- ley, Samuel McPhetres, T. J. Pyle, Howard W, Schleiter.

N. Peterson, general raffic manager of the line, announces. All passenger vessel departures from Seattle, effective with the sailing of the steamer Denali, Jan- uary 19, are set for 4 p.m. instead of 5 p.m. as heretofore, The new schedule outlines sail- ings through September 21, 1951 with departures each Friday and in addition, a Wednesday sailing each week during the peak of the tour- ist season, ' June through early September, “As more and more people come to recognize the splendid cruise possibilities of May and the period from Labor Day through early October, we anticipate increasing our service during these periods,” Peterson said. The steamers Alaska and Denali will sail on successive Wednes- days and the Aleutian and Baran- of on successive Fridays. Passengers making the round trip on either Wednesday steamer will have opportunity to visit two Al- aska capitals—the present capital of Juneau and the former capital, @ifka. The Denali will also call at the yet earlier capital of Kodiak. The complete summer itinerary of the Alaska includes Ketchikan, Petersburg, Juneau, Seward, Val- dez, Cordova, Sitka and Ketchi- kan. The Denali ports are Ketchi- kan, Sitka, Seward, Seldovia, Kodi- ak, Juneau, Petersburg and Ketchi- kan. Ports of call of the Aleutian will be Ketchikan, Juneau, Cordova, Valdez, Seward, Juneau, Wrang- hgéll and Ketchikan. The Baranof gorts are Ketchikan, Wirangell, Juneau, Seward, Valdez, Juneau and, Ketchikan. The popular Golden Belt Line tours, covering the interior of Al- aska through the Seward or Valdez igateway, will be available in con- nection with each Alaska liner this year. The port of Valdez was added to the itinerary of the Baranof to help meet the de- mand for these trips. “This should be the Alaska year for American tourists,” Peterson said when discussing the schedule, “That tremendous northland has experienced greiter growth in the last ten years than any other sec- tion of the United States. We are planning for a big season in 1951 and expect to carry more passeng- ers than we have in any year since the war.” In addition to regular year around weekly pasenger service, the Al- aska Line offers frequent freighter schedules. 5. 6.

Keil of Seattle is at the . - [ SEATTLE (10 MAN f JOHN GARFIELD IS STAR IN FEATURE AT 20TH CENTURY A new cumax in dramatic enter- tainment starts tonight at the Gross 20th Century Theatre. John Gar- field and Lili Palmer are starred in the dramatic “Body and Soul,” a smashing epic of the fight ring. | Garfield portrays the son of a poor East Side family, when the accidental death of his father leaves the family destitute, Garfield becomes a professional boxer over the protests of his mother, Ann Re- vere. Lili Palmer, his sweetheart, courages him, and under the guid- ance of Joseph Pevney, his pal, Gar- field becomes the leading chal- leniger for the middleweight title In order to fight, Lee, the champion, is compelled to sell 50 percent of himself to Lloyd Goff, a crooked promoter, who controls Ifg-time boxing. Garfield wins the title from Lee, a physical wreck, and Garfield, | learning the truth, cares for him., Success goes to Garfields head, and | for the next several years he leads | a gay life with Hazel Brooks, al blonde gold-digger, and is con- stantly in debt to Goff. He becomes | enstranged fram Lili and his mother | because of their insistence that he| quit the fight game, which is ruin- | ing his character. Meanwhile, both | Lee and Pevney meet their deaths,' with Goff the indirect cause of; their demise. Heavily in debt to Goff, Garfield is eventually forcod by the promoter to agree to lose his title in a fixed fight, and is even| given $60,000 to bet against him-) self.
