Dear C.N.:
The truth may hurt but it” is
better to face the facts. What pos-
sible reason could you have for ’
thinking the first boy might ask
you for another date? He stood
you up on the only date he has
asked for and has shown no inter-
est in you since. You certainly
reached “way out" to find an ex-
cuse for his behavior but I doubt
that distance was a factor- You
see, if it were, he should not have
asked you for the date in the first
place. Whatever his reason for not
keeping the date he, at least, could
have called you. So, you see, I
agree with your parents. My ad-
vice is to get off the waiting list
and on the dating list.
If you would like to have our
10 - cent booklet “How to Change
Your Date Fate" send 10 cents
and a stamped, self - addressed
envelope with your request to Do-
rothy Ricker in care of the Rec-
ord-Chronicle. If you have prob-
lems submit them to Dorothy Ric-
ker also.

Pictured above is an artist's drawing of a proposed shopping center in Northeast Denton
on the west side of Sherman Drive just north of the city water well. Located on a 14 acre
tract of land owned by Joe W. Nichols and J. L Ginnings, the center will be the only
modern, air-conditioned, planned shopping district in Denton and will compare with the
best of Dallas and Fort Worth. The plans were drawn by Peyton G. Cooper, Dallas archi-
tect who speciolizes in shopping center developments. It is designed to be built In two
units. One unit is planned for early 1959 at a cost of a quarter million dollars. The second
unit is plan d to be added as Denton grows to its need. The first unit includes a major
food market and a variety of smaller retail outlets. A major insurance company has ap-
praised the proposed center and has endorsed the locaiton os their number one choice in

TWa may seem like a large pro-
ject and you may throw up your
hand* in horror at the thought of
all the work involved. But if this
become* a community project it
can be done. I am sure. Three
year* ago I made similar sugges:
tiona to another group of small
town youngsters and they worked
it out very well.
In the meantime, I suggest, if
you are really fed up with t h e
trend of your dating activities,
simply refuse to go to “Cupid's
Curve.” If you can persuade some
of the other girls to go along with
your ideas, there's one sure thing
— the boys won't be going to
"Cupid’s Curve” by themselves.
Of course I know that all the girls
will not share your opinions but
I think it’s worth a try. Good luck
with both 'projects’
DATING LIST

I am a 16 . year - old girl. I
like a certain boy very much and
would like to know him better. He
asked me for a date once but he
didn’t show up — maybe it was
because he live* in another town.

the simplest way to describe our
main problem is that the situation
in our home town is typical of
"Peyton Place.” A date here con-
sists of a movie and parking at
Cupid’s Curve.
We girls have decided we want
something better out of life -than
this. We are tired of being blamed
for immorality, we know it’*
wrong but there’s nothing else to
do. Our parents won’t do anything
but point an accusing finger at us.
Why can't they help us? We don’t
know what to do. Please help us.

Dear Girls:
The postmark on your letter
shows you live in a small com-
munity. Yours is not an unusual
problem, I have received letters
from other small town girls com-
plaining about similar situations.
Since most small towns seldom
have adequate teen - age recrea-
tional faculties this is probably the
main cause of your difficulties.
What I am going to suggest will
take work, enthusiasm and stick-
to-itiveness but I think it can be
done.
I suggest you first try to get a
committee of boys and girls to-
gether, who feel as you do. Then,
as a group, go to see your school
principal, your clergymen, local
business men and parents. Ask for
their help and cooperation in es-
tablishing some sort of teen re-
creation center — perhaps a va-
cant store. It doesn’t have to be
fancy, just a place where young-
sters can get together and have
some clean, wholesome fun.
If this is possible, try to find at
least two adults who are well liked
by teen - agon and ask them to
be your advisors. Charge a small
membership fee, elect officers,
set up behavior rules and see
that they are carried out. In other
words run things in a business-
like manner.
You probably can furnish the
recreation center by asking adults
to give you furniture they don’t
need. It wouldn’t be too difficult
for the boys and their fathers to
build ping pong table*. For a very
small amount of money the group
could paint the inside of the store
or whatever place is available.
Perhaps your local church women
might even be willing to bake
cakes or cookies occasionally for
