(gatette Wednesday, July 18, 1984 Pope 3 By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN tkkrtviolKlato A I at owtman'ft Ia Lil fori hr. FKEPAIKINO HtEE PA1WN0 nwnTtg fu-cnisaiui mil Thursday, Friday, and Saturday! July 19, 20, and 21! Special Saturday hours 10 AM to 9 PM for your shopping convenience. We must clear out all our summer apparel to make room for our new fall fashions. You'll find great buys on these great summer DEAR ABBY: My ex-boss was an animal. First he asked me if I ever fooled around, then he asked me what kind of birth control I used.

I didn't answer either question. He in-, vited me to have a drink with him after work. I refused. When he tried, to put hig arms around me, 1 decided I had had enough, so 1 reported him to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and filed a complaint. It was a hard thing to do, but I had to do it so he wouldn't pull the same stuff with his next secretary.

I work for the state and was im-' mediately transferred to another, job where I'm very happy. Don't ask me how they found but the people in the office I left know that I filed a sexual harassment complaint against the boss. Now, whenever 1 see my former coworkers, I fee! uncomfortable because they laugh and make jokes about the circumstances under which I left. To me it was a serious matter and I had to put a stop to it. Do you think I did the right thing in filing that complaint? And why do they try to make me feel guilty? UPSET DEAR UPSET: You did the right thing is filing that complaint.

Trying to make the victim feet guilty it a cruel game some people play. Don't let ft get to you. Working women everywhere would do well to follow your courageous example. DEAR ABBY: I'm engaged to marry a guy who has to Be the cheapest man in the world. He wants to start a chicken farm, but he doesn't want to invest any money.

He refuses to buy an incubator; he wants me to hatch the eggs in my bra! He says there's a lot of good heat going to waste there. He figures that every three weeks we should hatch from 6 to 12 chickens. Now get this, he says if my bra is too small, he'll buy me a bigger one. BIG-BUSTED IN BIRMINGHAM DEAR B.B.: Dod't be a dumb cluck. Tell "Mr.

Cheap Cheap" egg-sactly how you feel about his scheme, (Maybe he's making a yolk?) DEAR ABBY: Yesterday I drove my mother downtown for a doctor's appointment. I have stickers on my car signifying that it's used to transport a disabled person, but I was using my husband's car that day. My mother is 52 and the picture of health, but she has a very serious medical problem and can't walk very far, so I parked in a space reserved for' the handicapped. As we were getting back into our car, a woman who was pulling out of a space not reserved for the handicapped stuck her head out of her car window, and did she ever open up a mouth at us! She shouted, "You two strong, healthy women should be ashamed of yourselves taking a parking space reserved for some poor crippled person!" Then she shook her finger in our faces and drove off. Abby, please tell people that not all handicapped people wear braces, walk with crutches or use a wheel-chair.

Some disabilities are not visible. -NOT GUILTY IN NORFOLK, VA. DEAR NOT: Back off- the rights she was seeking to protect were yours! You should thank heaven for people who are willing to speak up when they encounter what they, perceive to be a selfish disregard for the rights of others. Although the woman was mistaken In your case, I applaud her spunk and good intentions. DEAR ABBY: As a mother of nine and grandmother of 10, 1 am asking you to advertise the following information in your column: I just heard that Trailways Bus System will give a runaway teen-ager free bus transportation home from anywhere in the United States.

Isn't that wonderful? I know that a lot of teen-agers read Dear Abby, so please print this. GRACE ST. AUGUSTINE, FLA. DEAR GRACE: Thanks for writing; it was news to me. I checked it out and was informed by a spokesman for Trailways Bus System that (bis is true.

However, there are some rules: The runaway must go to the police department and fill out a form stating that he or she is in fact a runaway who wants to return home. (This will discourage kids who are not runaways bnt want a free ride home for a lark or to visit friends.) Someone from the police department then escorts the runaway to the Trailways bus terminal and gives the signed form to the bus driver. Hooray for Trailways. (Every teen-ager should know the truth about drugs, sex and how to be happy. For Abby's booklet, send your name and address clearly printed with a check or money order for; $2.
