Tllc Joc Tru8iows Have Moved Hack Guide Teenager Toward Sound Eating Pattern RAIJEIGH One way to help your teenager become a better and more active student is to guide him in establishing a i i a sound eating pattern. According to extension food specialists, North Carolina State University, many teenagers can be motivated to improve their nutrition.

However, you do need to understand the things that are important to them and how these factors relate to foods and nutrition. For example, a teenager's friends are important. The snack he eats with them at the soda shop or the drive-in may make the difference between eating empty calories or getting the nutrients he needs. If the leaders of a teenage group can be encouraged to choose nutritious snacks, the rest of the gang may follow suit. Another important teenage characteristic is sociability.

The teenager wants to be with others of his age group. Again, you may do well to encourage teenage leaders to serve tasty, but nutritious foods at parties, dances and barbecues. Appearance is very important to most teenagers, the specialists observe. If you can convince a teenager that a proper diet is a key to shiny hair, clear skin, good posture and correct weight, he may wish to CORY9AN-Q I 34CAPSUIES CORYBAN-D COLD CAPSULES DECONGESTANT with Vitamic Unconditionally Guaranteed An effective combination of ingredients which help relieve discomfort of the common cold. .19 25 Capsules 1 BIGGS PARK SHOPPING CENTER improve his diet.

Teenagers admire others with vigor and want it for themselves. However, they may not grasp the connection between lack of energy and poor nutrition. Help them see the relationship, the specialists suggest. Popularity is a goal of most teenagers. The person they most admire is not a television personality or movie star, but a popular member of the teen group, such as the class president, an outstanding athlete or scholar.

In all probability, this teenager has good health. Pointing this out to your teenager may help him realize that good nutrition equals pep, energy and good looks.

TOPSYTURVY FASHIONS AIX-EN-PROVENCE, France (WNS) --College men here have begun a battle against coeds in trousers, "The girls wear them only to hide fat legs, skinny legs and hairy legs," said Alain Lagard, 20. "Some love affairs break up when we get the girls to the beach and see what they look like in bikini or less." Coeds are fighting back by pointing out that they have gambled on men in long trousers for centuries.

"The cover-up is man's best defense," claimed coed Catherine Pelat, 19. "We'll stop when they stop." Meanwhile, local tailors complain that Frenchmen once again demand vests when they buy suits. ''The college men don't wear the vests themselves," said tailor Robert Duval, "They wear only the jacket and trousers, and give the vest to their fiancees, who wear nothing else on top. It's the new engagement ring." Knit fabrics are classified according to the direction in i loops a i terconnected.

COM.KKN DKWHL'HST Superstar N.Y.stage. By Rebecca Morehouse NEW YORK (WNS) Colleen Dewhurst is fast becoming the American Duse. Already she is a superstar, the only superstar created entirely by the New York stage.

She owes little to movies and television. In April she took a Tony Award for the best performance by an actress in a play, Eugene O'Neill's "A Moon for the The award merely acknowledged what "Moon" watchers already knew, that she brings to the play a glory, a white-hot light that has not been seen in years. "In about 25 years of acting this is my first commercial success and the only time nobody asked me to take a cut in salary," she said at Sardi's. "Ive had great notices, bad ones, too. The trouble was I kept 'coming out" on stage.

Colleen was always running off Broadway, on Broadway. The Queen of Off-Broadway, they called me." She laughed. A ripple of laughter runs through or underneath nearly everything she says. Indeed, she laughs more frequently, has more nerve than any other actress around. A five-weeks-only engagement was planned for "A Moon for the Misbegotten." With Jason Robards and Ed Flanders, it opened December 29 to a roar of raves.

Every performance thereafter was sold out in advance. It closed in July to give the players a rest, reopens September 3 at the Morosco. "Jose Quintero the director, Jason and 1 wanted to do it. We were free, nobody was banging on our doors. I'd done the play before and I felt Jason was perfect for Jamie Tyrone.

He's a joy. His health seems terrific now after an automobile accident that almost took his life in California. "It took us a few weeks to realize what had happened. People were coming to you with such praise. It was always for the total production instead of singling out people." A modest statement but now quite accurate.

She brings the shine to "Moon." Josie Hogan, the character she plays, is an ugly virgin who pretends to be wanton. "Somebody overheard one woman say to another: "She can't be a virgin. Wasn't she married to George C. Scott?" It makes you wonder. At a matinee I heard a woman say: "But she's beautiful." Her friend said, 'Not I wanted to swat her." She is beautiful: full-bodied, sculpted facial planes, a sensual mouth.

And she was twice married to George C. Scott, who is now married to Trish Van Devere. Her and Scott's sons, Alex and Campbell, are 14 and 15. "I told George C. we have to stop giving interviews in which he says I'm a wonderful human being and I say the same of him.

Why don't we just say it was agony? Laughter. I see no reason to get married again. I have the children, my home, a career. After college I was the first one down the aisle, unhappy, in a rage." That marriage, to actor Jim Vickery, lasted 12 years. "I was driving home one night," she continued, "and I thought, 'My God, I'm not I'd been married 25 years off and on to two men." She was born in Montreal, grew up in Boston, has a country house in Westchester County, vacationed with her sons in a house she bought recently at Prince Edward Island, Canada, 1,000 miles away.
