Perhaps to a young man you don’t even know well? I€ 80, better give it a second thought, maybe two or three. So says Dr. Douglas Spencer, well- known consulting psychologist. Doctor Spencer has had lots of experience with the romance and marriage problems of youth — at the University of California where, as assistant dean of men, he start- ed teen-age counseling in 1926, at Columbia University, Queens Col- lege, and for 6 years as staff Psychologist at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, He ad- vises: “Before you marry that boy ask yourself whether he can assume the role of husband. What evidences of matufity has he displayed? Has he accepted responsibilities—man- aging for himself, held a job, paid his school tuition, bought his own car.” If a young man is a victim of over-indulgent parents who perpe- tuate his childhood by babying him through adolescence, chances are he’ll not make a good marriage bet. He explains: “Some young people are sophis- ticated and experienced. Others are juvenile and childish at the same stage. The immature individ- ual would have difficulty sharing things with another person, an essential requirement of a happy marriage.” Egocentricity rather than sex or money is the greatest difficulty in marriage today, he says. Self- centered men feel they are not understood. The truth is that they want their wives to think of all their failures as successes, com- pare their looks and dress to movie stars and laugh at their old tired jokes constantly, he says. A man should be interested in something more significant than himself, says Dr. Spencer who has found through the years that mature teen-agers possess an in- dependent point of view, a philos- ophy of their own, a goal in life. He cautions that ambition should not be confused with a definite aim, however. Ambition, he says, “can frequently be just infantile hoping or wishful thinking” — an- other sign of immaturity. “It is not so much what a man does but why and how he does it) that counts, says Doctor Spencer. Does he get real enjoyment out of his fishing, hunting or skiing and come home happy and sunburned and in good humor? Or is winning necessary to his self respect? Does he go into the game with such fanatical zeal that he may not be spoken to for days if he loses the match? If you are the type who is selecting your husband from the football roster or baseball lineup better think twice before you choose that knight in shining dentally, all those wishing to con- tribute cakes and candies are ask- ed to phone Marjorie Barrett at 2- 6898 as soon as possible. Althea Haskins and Dora Mar- tinez will arrange a basketball tournament among the Convent high school classes, with a prize for the winning class. Mrs. Caro said today that there are many jobs yet to be filled, and many plans yet to be made. To help complete these plans and fill these jobs there will be a meeting tomorrow night, Tuesday, October 19 at 8 p. m. at the home of Mrs. Eva Lee Newhouse, president of the C. M. I Alumanae, 620 Eaton Street. All members of the Alum- nae and the Mothers’ Association are urged to attend. American Legion Sets Membership Eligibility Date off date for eligibility for Ameri- can Legion membership. stemming out of active service in the Korean War period, Pau: L. Mesa, Jr., membershp chairman for Arthur Sawyer Post 28, announced today. This terminal date was set by the 36th National Convention re- cently held in Washington, D. C. On this basis, the Charter of the American Legion will again be amended by Congress to set forth the Korean War eligibility period as being from June 25, 1950 to July 27, 1953. Those who have served at some time between those dates, and who have received an honorable dis- charge or who continue to serve honorably following the latter date, July 27, 1953, are eligible for Am- erican Legion membership, Chair- man Mesa said. A person who did not go into the service until after July 27, 1953 would not be eligible. The American Legion has set aside a 23-day period from Octo- ber 20 to November 11 as “AL Weeks” for an intensive campaign to enroll a record membership for 1955. Arthur Sawyer Post is par- ticipating in this drive. The climax of “American. Legion Weeks” will be the first nationwide observance of November 11 as Ve- terans Day. Chairman Mesa indicated that Arthur Sawyer Post is striving to enroll a record membership for 1955. The American Legion as a whole has been good for America. It has been dedicated from the be- gnning — for 36 years — to the promotion of the best interest cf America and of the defenders of America.
