. . inwrn questions aboutJunior Mitt etiquette,

grooming and interettt.

Q. Most bojs ask mc out for

a specific occasion, but when

one asks mt what I want todo, I ncitr know what to sug-

gest, especially if it's the firstdate. What should I do?

A. Whatever you do, don'tgive him the "1 don't care"routine! By the time a boy asltsyou out and you accept, you

must know something abouteach other's interests. Try to

remember what he talks about.He may have given you some

clues about things to do. Hashe seen a certain movie? Doeshe swim, bowl or play golf?Do you? Before datetime thinkof everything you would liketo do that you think he wouldenjoy too. Keep his finances inmind and don't insist on anexpensive evening if you thinkhe can't afford it. He'll appre-ciate your consideration for hisinterests and wallet?and willbe calling soon for anotherdate.

Q. I love to ride la sports

can, bat I always feci awkwardgetting la ami oat of them. IT*not ao bad when I'm wearing

slacks or bermdai, tat skirtsmn a real problem. Is theretmj way to grt la and oat

gracefully?A. The beat solution to this

problem is the side approach.

To enter, sit down sideways,keep your legs together, andswing your knees around untilyou face forward. To get out,

reverse the procedure. With

!!fyour knees together, swing youriegs to the side. Hopefully, ahelping hand will assist you

out of the car as you stand.

You'll find that the side ap-proach soon will become habitand you won't worry about the"ins" and "outs."

Q. My face is so dry! I feellike my skin is going to shrivelup and crack off, but I can'tkeep my face covered up allthe time. What should I do?

A. Outdoor summer fun ishard on delicate skin, but that's

no reason to hibernate fromsun and wind! Just be sure to

use a rich lanolated cream every

night before going to sleep.Massage it in with upward mo-

tions arching from the bridgeof your nose across your fore-head. Then, with alternatingsweeps of your palms, workcream up into your neck andfrom your chin to ear lobes.Always smooth upward. Withindex fingers, cream from theside of your nose out over your

cheekbones to your temples.Then, gently pat cream aroundyour eyes. Be sure to blot offthe excess with Kleenex tissuesto you won't get any on yourpillowcase.

JAMES W. BRYANT NAMED UNCFEXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT

NEW YORK, N. Y.?The ap-

pointment of James WilliamBryant as executive vice presi-dent of the United Negro Col-lege Fund was announced thisweek by William T. Gossett,chairman of the Fund's boardof directors.

Bryant who has served as

an administrative officer in sixSouthern colleges, \u25a0will assumeexecutive responsibilities as theFund's administrative head onSeptember 1.

Tuskegee Institute and Hamp-ton Institute are member in-stitutions of the United NegroCollege Fund.

Teenagers JoinIn BeautifyingCommunity

He is currently president ofthe American Association ofCollege and University BusinessOfficers and business managerof Hampton Institute in Hamp-ton, Va.

A group of older Negro teen-agers in the Lakeview commu-nity just northeast of the cityhave shown what communityspirit and action can do.

Just recently organized underthe encouragement of Miss Ro-salie Duggins, one of the four?'VISTAs" (Volunteers in Serv-ice to America) assigned to Ope-ration Breakthrough, they busi.Ed themselves during the past

weekend and this week givingnew coats of paint to nearly200 mail boxes in their com-munity.

"The new director," Gossettnoted, "comes to the Fund withan exceptionally broad range ofexperience in college adminis-tration, business, finance?anda thorough knowledge of theprogram and needs of the Unit-ed Negro College Fund. I be-lieve that he will do much tohelp strengthen our activitieson behalf of the Fund's mem-ber colleges and universities.

Through its annual nation-wide appeal, the United Ne-gro College Fund provides edu-cational opportunities for 30,-000 students enrolled in 33member institutions located in11 Southern states. Funds de-

rived from the 1965 campaignwill be used by the predomi-nantly Negro institutions tohelp meet current operatingcosts and bolster scholarshipprograms for more than 13,000needy students.

Although the project was con-ceived before then, it actuallybegan taking shape with adance held at Lakeview Schoolby the club last Friday night.Using the proceeds' from thesmall admission charged, theclub the following day purchas-ed enough paint to get the pro-ject well on its way?but notenough to complete.

Funds from the dance pro-ceeds were running low whena former city policeman whonow operates a hardware storeagreed to help the club by sell-ing it enough paint at whole-sale prices to complete its pro-ject. The club's treasury re-ceived still another "shot in thearm" through contributions giv.en by many of the residencewhose mail boxes were painted.In fact, it is reported that theclub now is considering paint-ing the outer woodwork of thecommunity's library.

Bryant was graduated fromTuskegee Institute and is therecipient of a graduate degreein Business Administration fromthe Wharton School of Com-merce, the University of Penn-sylvania.

He is a member of the boardof trustees of the Dixie Hospitaland the Weaver Orphan Homein Hampton, Va., and Secretaryof the National Association ofCollege and University BusinessOfficers.

Bryant has served as a con-sultant on fiscal procedures forthe United Negro College Fundand as a financial officer forTexas College (Tyler, Tex.),Tuskegee Institute (TuskegeeInstitute, Ala.), Florida NormalCollege (St. Augustine. Fla.),and Johnson C. Smith Univer-sity (Charlotte). He is, in ad-dition, a former director of theBooker T. Washington BusinessCollege in Birmingham, Ala.
