As such, you had your finest moment when you advised a 14- year-old boy to run rather than to defend himself against a 15-year- old outsized girl. I say if a girl wants to act like a boy, treat her as a boy. A black eye and a split lip in childhood is a small price to pay if it prevents a female from confusing her role with that of a male's in adult life. Dear Abby: Your answer to Mrs.

You women want to wear the panls, smoke, go in bars and compete with men for jobs, but iiiiniiiinniiiiiii umn from the mother of a 14- year-old boy who beat up a 15- year-old girl because she kicked him, hit him and called him names. The boy's father heard about it and gave the boy a good thrashing.

You were asked what the boy should have done in such a case and you said that since the girl outweighed him by 30 pounds and was half a head taller than he was, the boy should have run. In our entire group, Abby, I was the only one who stood by you. All the other women said they thought the boy had no choice but to beat the girl up in order to defend himself. Maybe you and I were not raised the same as most folks, but I still think it is less of a disgrace for a boy to run from a girl than to beat her up. Nell in N.J.

I'll bet that was the last time that big fat Amazon ever took a poke at him. Sign me Sweeny Dear Abby: Just read about th6 14ryear-old boy who was given a beating by his father for socking a 15-year-old girl in the split lip in self-d'efense. You said, "Under no circumstances should a boy ever hit a girl." I think you gave some pretty bum advice there, Abby. If a girl hits a boy first, I think he has a perfect right to hit her back.

You have a son, Abby, why don't you ask him for his opinion? I'll bet he wouldn't run from a girl. One for Your Wastebasket Dear One: I just asked htm. He said he wouldn't hit her in eye. When I was an 8-year-old boy, I was unmercifully tormented by an older, bigger girl. I was ashamed to ask for help because people would laugh at the same way he'd hit a boy.

Fur Facings Gets Paris Show Going By LOUISE HICKMAN PARIS (AP) Soft bulk and fur facings characterized the two collections that got Paris fall and winter fashion showings started today, Jacques Esterel drew from i sheepskin flyers' jackets for big-shouldered coats with jutting collar and "leather" seam- ings. Ferrera'ji look was slimmer, and seemed inspired by light, quilted Chinese costumes. He used many frog and toggle closings. Fashion editors and buyers saw a show of new coiffures from leading Paris hair stylists during a boat trip on the Seine Sunday night.

In today's showings, Esterel did flyers' coats in wide-wale beige corduroy, pink gabardine, white brocade, and pale blue suede. Devil-may-care mink collars jutted out from the evening numbers. Dresses underneath were slim, belted pullover sweater types. Ferreras' look was essentially slim and tubular. Soft smock coats, shirred at the neck and shirt-cuffed sleeves were an exception.

Dresses were belted sweater tunics in soft crepes, or skimpy stiff silk tubes, closed just under the bosom and flipping out in a tiny trumpet hem. Both houses showed long- jacket suits. Esterel's were straight over low, flippy pleats. Ferreras' were more fitted, worn with slim skirts. Flat bands of fur, beaver or mink were used in both collections.

Esterel put fur cuffs and ruffs on his long-line sweater dresses and suits. Slim coats and jackets at Ferreras were completely outlined in fur bands, a fur-and-fabric handling that looked like classic sheepskin treatment. Ferreras even got the look of rolled-back fur facing out of reversible teal and turquoise wool. For evening, Ferreras showed slim back-w rapped dresses, high in front, low in back. He has some one-shoulder models and lots of flirty ruffled edges.
