B-2 ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL Friday, July 7, 1972 Dear Abby Sick Humor Not Funny Abigail Van Buren I am a good husband, and I don't appreciate being bawled out and yelled at. What do you think? A GOOD BOY DEAR BOY: If you refer to yourself as a good boy that could be part of your problem. Start thinking of yourself as a good MAN. Let your wife know that you will not be intimidated. Stand up to her, MAN'-style, and she may treat you like one.

DEAR ABBY: Please write something in your column about the sick humor that has become to popular on television. I refer to the skits in which they make fun of old people. This type of comedy mocks and ridicules the feeble walk, faltering speech and the failing sight and hearing of the aged, many of whom have no other entertainment than watching television. The elderly have earned a place of dignity in this land which they have built with their labor and supported with their money during their productive vears. Sign me FORTY-EIGHT AND GETTING THERE DEAR FORTY-EIGHT: Nothing can become popular unless the majority of the people want it, which is a pretty sad commentary on our times.

However, our humor has improved since comedians ridiculed foreigners and minority groups. We've come a long way, but we still have a long way to go. For immediate action, complain to the sponsors or the network. 265-6931 San Mateo at LomasShop Mon. Wed.

They are a couple in their mid-sixties who visit in our home for a week at a time. We are happy to have our friends visit us, but I am so embarrassed by the actions of the husband I fear I will lose my temper and tell him off. He comes to the breakfast table in his under-shorts for one thing.

And for another, if the bathroom is occupied, he knocks loudly on the door until he gets the other party out. I have asked my husband to speak to this man, but he says he doesn't want to insult a guest in our home. The wife is a lovely patient person, but she will not criticize her husband either. Have you any suggestions? UPSET HOSTESS DEAR HOSTESS: If anyone Is going to criticize him, it appears that you are elected. DEAR ABBY: I am 32 years old, have been married for seven years, and have three children.

My problem arises from my night out. I bowl with the boys on Monday nights. On I bowl with my wife. I belong to one civic organization which meets every other Wednesday night. I have a sales job, which means I sometimes have to make a call in the evening.maybe once a week, but when this happens, I am always home by midnight.

Abby, when I come home from any of these evenings my wife throws the book at me like I came home at 4 a.m. smelling of booze and women. My wife always knows where I am and Who I'm with. She treats me like a mother would treat a son. CONFIDENTIAL TO WONDERING: One who considers having a marriage without sex should also consider that it could lead to sex without marriage.

Problems? Trust Abby. For a personal reply, write to ABBY, care of the Albuquerque Journal, and enclose a stamped, addressed envelope.
