Show a THE POINT OF VIEW ry f ff r j f H 1 THE DATING GAME i t I Just Be Yourself And Be Friendly It depends on the girl and th the boy I wouldn't do U it I would be too embarrassed I dont don't agree I think it is impolite for a girl to prod a aboy aboy boy into asking her for a date WHAT'S THE issue Pro Pro- Probably Probably bably one that is as old as the system of boy dating girl itself Should a girl ask a boy for a date A Salt Lake City columnist said as much as yes re re- re recently putting forth the bold proposal as an an answer anVer Ver to a dis young womans woman's pro pro- problem blem a guy she liked but whom she thought to be too shy to ask her to a dance THE MAIN reason why a ayoung ayoung young man especially a shy young man wont won't ask a girl to togo togo go to a dance with him is be cause hes he's afraid of being turn turn- turned ed cd down the writer said The writers writer's advice to the girl girlin girlin in such a case was for her to meet her young man in the halland hailand and say Gee Id I'd like to be going to the dance Friday night but nobody's asked me ADMITTEDLY his advice was against all the rules but buthe he felt the problem justified bold action on the girls girl's part I Some of your girl friends Im I'm sure will tell you this is the wrong advice but you'll end up going to the dance They wont won't was his defense of the action Out of curiosity and to see if the younger generation was ready for a change in customs handed down from their par par- cots school days Verda liar Har rison of the VE staff took a clipping of the mans man's column to school and asked for opinions CONSENSUS Neither the boys or girls are ready for a switch one could almost say they'd rather Fight than switch The three answers at the beginning of this are reo re- representative and came from both young men and women at Uintah High School lONE JONE J ONE GIRL was a little un unsure sure I 1 think it is good ad vice but I would never really ask a boy to go with me be cause I would be afraid he would turn me down Another girl was positively negative about the idea I dont don't agree at all There are other ways a girl can get a boy boyto boyto to go with her and this way would really scare most of them away Just being yourself and friendly is the best method WHA WHAT T DO the boys think of being asked for dates by the fair sex I dont don't think that the girl should It just isn't right one young man said firmly Some guys are shy but I think that most of them are big enough to stand by yes ves If he wants to go to the dance then Ihen he can ask the girl another said lie He added wryly Usually if the girl asks the boy he wont won't enjoy the dance YET ANOTHER boy came out with a pretty prelly valid reason for a girl not asking her sup posed shy admirer for a date the guy may not be so shy and has already asked an- an another an other The same person offered an alternative approach for the girl who wants to tackle a shy guy head on The best thing for this girl to do is to start I talking to the boy when she meets him in the hall before or after a class This will let the guy know that she does docs like him and it will help him build buildup buildup up confidence to ask her to the next dance that comes along IT SEEMS the dating set at Uintah High isn't about to re- re reverse re verse the custom of boy asking girl for the date But for the girl who believes her target is shy and cannot ask her himself there seems to be hope As one girl pu put it Just being yourself and being friendly is i ithe the best way |
