Should we all dress in uniforms and cease being a little bit different!

Teenagers are intelligent young adults, for the most part, and in our coverage of teen news we intend to report what teens are talking about and interested in.

I think a dress like that should be for home use only, because it distracts everyone when worn at school, said Graig Lott, a Murray High I would just as soon see Granny dresses as styles which are much shorter, said Darrell Clegg, a Skyline German teacher. But as Carolee Reinhold, a Skyline English teacher notes: Granny dresses are lounging outfits and actually kids shouldn't be lounging in school. Can this problem be solved? Or is there a problem? The teens took a whack at the problem and suggested that a special day be set .aside in the schools for the girls to wear the long dresses or Uo wear them at dances. This same 'proposal was congruent with suggestions posed by high school principals.

An opposing viewpoint was stated by Linda Bennion, a Granger High School soph-mor- e: yes, I think Granny dresses are appropriate for school.

A fascinating, startling commentary was the result Up to the 20th century w- - Since the Rocky Mountain Review blossomed in April, 1964, the iitor has done nothing, absolutely nothing to specifically interest teenagers. Four weeks ago the editor called me and asked QWould you like to edit a teen page for the Review? The tone in his voice sounded as though he was asking me to blow up the Walker Bank. We discussed the matter thoroughly one December afternoon shrouded in a haze of purple cigar smoke. I asked the editor why his trepidations about a teen page. He mumbled something from George Bernard Shaw about youth being wasted on young people, and finally confessed he didnt understand teenagers. I simply told him that teenagers are people, and should be quite positively regarded as such. I hand t quite convinced him.
