DEAR MAN: Great idea! And female hams are indeed
kosher. I'm told that there are approximately 12,000
licensed female hams in the U.S.A.

DEAR ABBY: I have a solution for the woman in Kansas
who's afflicted with “telephonitis”—especially long-
distance calls. (She hides her phone bills so her husband
won't know how high they are.)
She should consider becoming a “ham" radio operator.
Amateur radio permits long distance communication all
over the world for free except for the initial price of the
equipment one needs.
It s a great hobby, but I'm not so sure female hams are
kosher. (Ha Ha!)

DEAR ABBY: I am a 50-year-old married man who is
fairly successful My wife and I raised a son and a
daughter—both of whom are now married.
I never qualified as the world's best father—or even
close to it. In fact. I was always too busy to be the kind of
father I should have been to my son. We never had a really
good father-son relationship, but luckily he turned out all
right. . .
Six months ago, I saw an ad for "Big Brothers”—an
organization of men who volunteer to take a fatherless boy
to a sports event, lunch, supper, or just let him hang
around on a Sunday afternoon.
Impulsively. I volunteered my services and lined up an
11 year-old boy from a broken home. I picked him up and
brought him to my home, and we spent the afternoon
getting acquainted. He was very quiet and shy at first, but
later on he opened up. He's a wonderful, sensitive kid who
never had the breaks, and he appreciates my attention.
I've spent practically no money on him. but the time I've
spent has already paid big dividends. His grades have
come up amazingly, and he's changed a lot of his ideas. I
think I’ve helped.
I wish other dads my age who were too busy for their
own sons would look into Big Brothers.” It's given me a
second chance at being a father. Spread the word, Abby
• - 1 FEELING GREAT
DEAR FEELING: I know the organization, and it is
wonderful. Consider the word spread. IPS. There are “Big
Sisters." too.) "5
