(Sheaf fer FW Girls Chasing The Male Boys Are Hunted In Twirp Week By DEBBIE MOHN After scanning the list of eli-gibles, girls at Flowing Wells High School have stalked from doors to ditches, hounded from sunrise to sunset, and scrambled from the art room to the shop in steaming pursuit of that certain unrendering male. With the announcement that Twirp Week activities were scheduled for March 13-16, boys started attending school incognito while girls began hoarding every penny. Those pennies not conserved may find their way into smile jars exposing the smile of one of the girls or boys selected by the student body for their bright, cheery smile. Mr. and Miss Hi-Smile of 1968 will be determined by the cash-in.

Following Hi-Smile and Dress-Up Day, Thursday will host Mr. Irresistible and Goofy Day. With girls in the long robes of ancient Greece and the boys again at the short end of it. Goofy Day is inspired by the style of dress of past Grecian civilizations. Girls should stock up on lollipops for Thursday, because for every word uttered between a girl and a boy, the girl must obligingly present him with a lollipop.

At the end of the day, the boy with the most lollipops will not necessarily be the biggest sucker, but Mr. Irresistible. Friday, Sadie Hawkins Day will be highlighted by the traditional chase. Starting on the football field with the girls at the goal line and the boys at center field, the race wili end with the capture, surrender or escape of all those pursued. A hayride and cook-out to Sa-bino Canyon was originally scheduled, but because of conflicting matters it will not be sponsored.

Climaxing grab-a-guy week. Bachelor King will be crowned at the twirp dance Saturday evening from 8-11 p.m. in the multi-purpose building.

Students will step into "Lost Paradise" and dance to the music of the Null Set.

The Polynesian atmosphere will be accented by a tiki room and a treasure island. Marilyn Craft, president of the organization, is in charge of Twirp Week. Along with the change in places between the girls and boys came the waiting and f'is-appointment of no date. For those boys remaining datcle and unmatched, wait until next year. photo by Harry Lewis) phitheater High School Tuesday under the name of Psychedelic Sg-In.

"Dutch treat dates are fine if you're going steady," said Steven Boykewich of Ir-vington, N.J.,"but it takes a lot of nerve to aks a girl to go Dutch if you've nonly gone out with her once or twice." A Louisville, Ky girl, Cindy Simons, suggested that "if you're seeing a boy regularly, you can invite him to dinner.

That way it doesn't offend his masculinity. Or you can go someplace inexpensive." Several young people, nearly all of them girls, felt a boy should think more of a girl who's willing to split expenses because it shows she really likes him, and is not just interested in where he can take her. "I think a fellow appreciates a girl's concern for his pocket-book," stated Marcelite Webre of Thibodaux, La. For some teens, the issue isn't that critical. As Gary Vor-pahl, 16, of Collins, Wis.

put it, "If a guy really likes a girl, nothing matters." Ideally, the traditional dating concept is preferred by the overwhelming majority cf teenagers surveyed. But 9 per cent of the fellows (opposed to only one per cent of the gals) state they would like to go Dutch-treat, theoretically. For the boys who claim they would like the switch, it's mainly wishful thinking. As Eddie Baremore of Dallas, concluded: "I never did it and wouldn't because if a girl agreed it would scare me off but it would be nice change and think money I'd save." for a of the BART FRANK DAVID i A i "ii "aa, By NANCY GILBERT President, Gilbert Youth Serivce, Inc. Should girls go on a Dutch-treat date? Or should they insist on letting the man pay? Does it lower a uoy's opinion of a girl if she accepts a date where she has to pay he rown way? Surprisingly, the comments we have received on these questions from the fellows, who one would think would appreciate a girl's efforts to split expenses, indicate that a girl has a lot more to lose than money when she accepts a pay-your-own-way date "If a girl accepts a Dutch treat date, it shows she's desperate," said Mike Silverman 17, Cheltenbaum, Pa.

His comments were echoed by four out of 10 youths in our latest crosscountry survey. Interestingly only 25 per cent of the girls felt that accepting a Dutch treat date lowered the girl's status. David Tattle, 17, of Glendale, elaborated on the "desperation" aspect. "It shows she has very strong feelings for the boy and wants to be with him at all costs. He will then think he can treat her like dirt.

Masculine pride and feminity seem to be at the crux of the issue. A 16-year-old Collins, youth, Roland Shimek, noted, "I think (if the girl goes Dutch) trie boy thinks of the girl as another friend instead of someone special. Ken Kelley cf Carroll, Ohio, was concerned because 'utch dating makes the boy feel cheap; and that he isn't At CDO and no one thought they would ever be true. But today what he wrote about dees not seem so much a fantasy it's almost true." Fantasy is also a favorite of freshman Suzanne Wilson. "The Lord of the Rings" is my favorite.

J. R. R. Tolkien writes well, and he ce'lainly has a good imagination." Besides running the Book Fair, the Honor Society has had a busy week with another following. Next Thursday night, the Honor Society will hold an induction of new members, both juniors and seniors.

I like Sidney because he is colored and this is something that is going to happen to this world." Nano Bliss, Tucson High School senior: "I haven't seen any of the movies but I've read the reviews. I'd guess that the Dublic would pick 'Bonnie and Clyde' but I'd pick 'Guess Who's Coming to It's hard to say who will win the best actor and best actress awards." Frank Pedersoli, Amphitheater High School, junior: "I say 'Bonnie and Clyde' because I saw it and liked it. The best actor award should go to Sidney Lavery cini plays the role of Sister Jeanne.

Ellen Auft hammer, 16, of Miami, stated that "by going Dutch a girl is agreeing to be considered an equal in a situation where she should be a lady first." Eti quette, "the fact that it's un ladylike," and "you ask the girl out, she doesn't ask you" were other reasons cited by those op posed to the pay-your-own way principle. Perhaps that's why Dutch- treat dates are rare.

Although more than four nut of five teens surveyed stated they dated, less than 7 per cent thought that a Dutch date was a commonplace occurrence. In fact, going Dutch is so rare it is almost nonexistent in the South. The independent West was the only area where a sizable percentage (11 per cent) reported it an accepted practice.

It was funny in the beginning and then it got serious. I like Warren Beatty, and as far as the best actress, it's hard to say." Jim Imel, Canyon del Oro sophomore: "I think 'Bonnie and Clyde' will get the Oscar because it is more popular among the high school people. I like Spencer Tracy's acting and go for Faye Dunaway."
