Page 36 Journal-News, Hamilton. Ohio Thursday. February 7,1974 Aging programs By Jim Newton Action Line may be the shortest distance between two points your question or problem and the answer or solution. Action Line eliminates curves, angles, circles and boxes. Send your question or problem to Action Line, care of The Journal News, Hamilton, Ohio, -I5pl2.

Upon request, your name and address will be withheld. You seal your secret with Action Line when you seal your envelope. The services of Action Line are yours, without charge, write away! Q. I have been following (he comments about the widening of Nilles Koad, Fairfiold. I haven't seen anything about the young people who have to to (he high school.

All (hose who live close arc required to walk. This means in the street or in the mud. Can't something he done ahout this? Is this right? A. Fairfield City Council could do something about ii, but it would probably mean the property owners would have to pay. Q.

I know someone living at the YMCA. He is unemployed right now and gets a parking ticket on his car every day. It seems like they could have a parking lot, either on the side or back of the building where no other cars could park. Did you ever have any other complaints on this? Can something be done? A. Action Line can't recall any other complaints on this subject.

If your acquaintance is unemployed, it means he has time to either go out and plug his meter or park his car where there is no meter. Q. Following are two items I think would be beneficial to the citizens of Hamilton. 1. I think most (Jrivcrs will agree that the exhaust fumes from city transit buses are quite sickening, especially in heavy stop and go traffic.

To help eliminate this, the exhaust could be extended lo the top of the bus with cither straight pipe of flexible tubing. The cost and labor would be minimal. It may not look the greatest, but the nauseating smell of diesel emissions would be eliminated. 2. Would like to see the city remove the parking meter adjacent to Ohio Casualty's receiving door on N.

Third St. Ninety-nine per cent of the time there is a car parked there, making it difficult for trucks to back in to load or unload goods for Ohio Casualty. Since it seems most everyone else requests that his or her name not be used, I'll do the same. Jim, I'm one of those "dumb ass" truck drivers, so if you want to change any of my words or phrases to make it sound belter, go ahead and do so. A.

We wouldn't think of changing a word you wrote. There no way Action Line could make it sound better. Are you the ages of 12 and 20? Do you have a problem or a question? Send your letters to Dear Jane, Journal-News, Hamilton, Ohio 'I5012. For a personal reply, include a stamped, self envelope. Dear Jane, I'm having a hard time making, friends.

I'm not a native ilamiltonian, but I've been here long enough it seems lo me, to be able to say I have some really good friends. But I don't. You see, in high school it seems everyone is already in a clique and (hoy don'l really wanl anyone else in. But I don't belong to one and so I sort of wander around by myself. I try.

to tell myself I don't really' need anyone, but that's not true. I'm very lonely. Can you help? Loner Dear Loner, I can make some suggestions, but most of the work will have to come from you. It is true there are a lot ac liques in high school, but everyone doesn't join them, by any means. Some arc wandering around just like you, looking for friends, it's hard to admit it, but if you look closely, you'll begin to find them.

How about starting your own clique? That is, find others who seem to be in your shoes. Aside from that, you might join of the activity groups in your school, or go to a church in your neighborhood. Get interested in a hobby and you may find others with similar interests. I guess the main thing is for you to get busy. Stir up some initiative and don't wait for friends lo come looking for you.

They may think you don't want or need them. Start by being friendly, suggesting some kind of activity with someone. Join the Y. How about it?
