I am going with a married man. From the beginning he was honest with me about having a wife. lie has talked about a divorce but I dont want him to get one. I have been divorced and I know it is a bad thing to go through.

I have four children and tupport them by running a drive-in. My friend get jealous when certain men come to the place and talk to me. I love him and am true to him. He aaya he loves me and is true to me. Do you think he Is? In Love in Texas.

(A.) He is probably as true to you as he is to'his wife. DUTY? (Q.) I am nearly 30 and I want to get married. My mother, however, ayg I must not. She it in a wheel chair and tells me I have to take care of her until she dies. There will be plenty of time for me to marry then, she says.

She keeps telling me its my duty to take care of her because she is the only mother I have. She says If put her in a rest home she wont live long and she will tell everyone it is my fault. mother can be a tyrant over a daughter upon whom she feels she Is all-dependent. The daughter must not abandon her mother. But she must also refuse to let feelings guilt and tearful appeals love and duty ruin her own life.

MAN IN MIND: (Q.) I am a blonde, 20 years old. I'm built nicely. Im not bad ing in the face. I am a little, timid. I have a guy in mind, but' I dont know how to get him.

I hayent met him, and dont know if he likeg I -do know that his name is Luke and he is 21. I work iif a bakery and he works in a men's store across the street from the bakery. He has never come into the bakery, but; am sure he has seen me. Should 1 wave to him if I see him standing out front? Should I start talking or should I let him make tbe moves? In Need Friend In Pennsylvania. (A.) The best way for oung woman to meet a man she has her eye on is to find someone she knows who also knows him, and to ask that person to introduce them, Jt really helps If the meeting can he in a social setting at a dinner or party or dance or something similar.

But if this is and you must approach him; -on the street, show real Inter- 1 est in your eyes and voice when you introduce yourself. Invite him to come over to the bakery. If he does, be nice to him, Be prepared, however, for the possibility that he may already have someone else picked out. I keep telling myself I want to live my life my own way. What do you think 1 should do? Chained to a Wheel Chair in Louisiana.

(A.) Talk to your mother. Tell her you are going to work out a way so that she can be taken care of and you can also have a life of your own. Ask her to cooperate with you. If she docs cooperate do what you can to comply to her preferences. If she doesn't cooperate, make the decisions you have to make on your own.

A number of workable arrangements are possible. To start, and to get your mother used to her new life, you could hire a teen-age girl to come In as a mother-sitter one or more evenings a week while you go out and get a taste of life. Or you could find a couple to live with her in an apartment complex for the aged and disabled, where the help that she needs would be available. These places are not rest homes. They are apartments where a person lives his own life.

Or you could find a husband who would be agreeable to living with you and your mother and helping you take care of her. Please do not feel at first that you MUST get married to escape your mother. But do get out among men and women your own age and give yourself a chance. Do have a life of your own. Do not just try it for a while, then give up and go back to your prison.

Yours is one of the really overwhelming problems of unmarried grown daughters. An ill or disabled or simply aged You only have one pair of eye, so protect them!" Thats the advice of experts who offer some amazing statistics. For Instance, your eyes normally use 25 percent of all your physical energy. Expose them to glare or strain, and you tire faster. On blowy days, the outdoor buff can wear wind goggles, with interchangeable, snap-in lenses In clear, dark gray or yellow to adapt to changing light condition.

Skiers, also, have learned reflected light on snow, or glare on bright but overcast days, can be an eye hazard. The pros usually wear ski goggles, with a dark lens for bright daylight and a snap-in yellow lens for late-afternoon or cloudv conditions. How important is this? Researchers at Bausch Lomb reveal, Tests have shown your night vision 171 ky HU, be "What's this littlt item?

(like driving home from the ski lodge) can be reduced more than 50 percent after a few hours outdoors on a bright or sunny day without proper glare protection. Non-athletes, too, need to guard against an intense winter sun.

Authorities report, For adequate eye comfort, sunglass lenses should pass no more than 30 percent of the light, with 13-20 percent transmission usually preferred. Sunglasses with Ray-Ban green and neutral gray lenses help filter out potentially harmful rays. Also, be sure that the glasses and goggles you buy (like those shown) conform to the governments new minimum standards regarding heat treating and impact resistance." Next Week: Shacho pattern By Abigail Van Buren wants to give it to you as a token engagement ring, or if he expects you to wear It. If he expects you to wear It, level with DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are presently drawing up our wills, and one of the toughest decisions we have to make is the placement of our children if my husband and I were both to go at the same time. Our children are 4, 2 and 1.

Boy, girl. boy. We want very much for all three children to be placed in the home of a relative. I have sisters and brothers and so has my husband, all of whom would be willing to take one or more of the children. But it seems such an unfair burden to place all three kids in one family.

Yet, we cant see splitting them up into two or three families. Can you or any of your readers help us settle this? STALEMATE DEAR STALEMATE: Talk it over with the relatives you would want to raise your children. And dont be too concerned about burdening one family with all three children. The chances of you and your husband going at the same time are very slim. CONFIDENTIAL TO HEARTSICK PARENTS IN ALBANY: From your letter, I would say that you did your best.

Stop punlsh'ng yourselves. Some parents train up a child in the way he should go, but out of rebellion and deep-seated hostility, the child deliberately departs from it. Whats your problem? Youll feel better if you get it off your chest. Write to ABBY, Box 69700, Los Angeles, CaL 90069. For a personal reply enclose stamped, addressed envelope.

DEAR ABBY: I wonder if other men have my problem, and if so, what can be done about it. I come from a quiet, soft-spoken family, and I am married to a woman who never speaks in a normal voice. She yells! She never a one to do anything. She shouts commands. And she keeps shouting until the dren shout back at her, which 1 do not like.

She also hollers out of the doors and windows at the children until I am ashamed before the neighbor. I have spoken to her about it to no avail. I cannot even talk on the telephone at home for all the noise in the background. It is getting so that I hate to come home in the evening. What do you suggest? TIRED EARS DEAR TIRED: One who constantly shouts Is usually nervous, irritable and angry.

If your wife has recently developed the habit of shouting, she may need to see a doctor. If she was this way when you married her, remember, a man may fall in love with a dimple, but he has to marry the whole girt. DEAR ABBY: I am getting engaged soon and my fiance wants to give me a ring that has been a family heirloom for years. Last week he brought it over and showed it to me but Abby, I dont like it at all. It is really gaudy and I cant see myself wearing anything like that.

Should I tell my fiance I dont like it? Or should I accept it so everyone else will be happy?

479 Broadway, Newburgh, N. Y. 12550. ($5 for members under 21.) Also: Bobby Fischer is probably the greatest living American chess player. Why is it that the Bangor Daily News seldom mentions him? Our past must and can speak for itself.

We expect extensive coverage of Bobbys match for the World Championship this summer. We agree with Grandmaster' Larry Evans, who says that Fischer is not only the greatest living American player, but probably the greatest living player and the IUI icHumiH tuaed fame WITH A COUPLE YOU CAN FORM IT.

26 12-2334-46riS 57-6J-I6-9UAC cfvtrte )Ncutrt Covering Bridge by Jeffrey Young This week we spent an enjoyable evening at the Augusta Bridge Club. A club tourney was being held and there were many familiar faces at the game, as Augusta has taken quite an active interest in the state bridge picture. The players at the Augusta club are a very competitive group and quite pleasant, a combination we find very stimulating. Sally Pruit Is the director and a familiar per-son on the tourney circuit. She is certainly one of the most pleasant directors and players we know of in the state.

We would only hope that their club can find better accomodations in the future. This week we received some comment on our news of bridge in the Bangor area. We would like, therefore, to list the various games that are open for any and all to play in the Bangor area. The Pine Tree Club meets on Friday night at the Bangor YWCA at 7:30 p.m. The Bangor and Queen City Clubs meet on Monday and Wednesday at the Bangor YMCA at 7:15 p.m.

The University of Maine Clubs will start at the Memorial Union at the Orono Campus on Feb. 18 at 7:30 p.m. The Downeast Club meets Tuesday night at the YWCA, but is invitational and not open to the public. Dealer North Neither vulnerable North S-A 4 2 H-10 2 D-A 10 8 4 C-A 3 West East S-K 8 7 S-10 9 5 3 H-K 9 8 7 5 A 4 3 D-Q 9 7 D-J 3 2 C-Q 6 5 C-7 4 South S-Q 6 H-Q 5 D-9 5 C-J 10 9 8 2 The Bidding: North East South West 1 pass 1 NT pass 3 NT all pass Todays hand is won by not following a rule. As always, rules should conform to the situation.

The bidding was quite natural and a three no trump contract was common. The opening lead was the seven of hearts, which was taken by Easts Ace and East returned a heart. West played the King and returned another heart to dislodge the Queen. South stopped to evaluate the situation and decided that if the Queen of clubs was in the West hand he had nine top tricks available. Even if the club finesse failed, it was reasonable to assume that East had no more hearts and any return would be helpful.

Accordingly, South led the Jack of clubs. Now it was Wests turn to think. It was obvious that if he let the Jack of Clubs ride he would lose the Queen, so West put up the Queen in hope that East might have the ten. But now the contract was assured, but for a reason that West had not thought. The lone small club in the North hand was the onlv entry back to the good club tricks.

If West holds off with the Queen, declarer is locked in the dummy. Regardless if East has the ten or not South must conceed either a diamond or spade trick plus the two established heart tricks. Although Wests reasoning is sound, as the general rule in this situation would be to cover honors with honors. West should have thought a little longer. West could See that honors in his hand and the dummy and figure that there was no way South could get back to his hand without giving uo a trick to West first.

greatest player of all time! Finally: There are excel-- lent chess programs on most--. ETV stations. Whefl can we expect to see one? The last one in this area was in the summer of 1970. We hope to see another one soon, but the local station has no immediate plans to gratify our interest. We suggest that anyone interested in a program of this sort should write to Maine Public Broadcasting and let them know what their public wants.

In Chess Whine. Stephen Dann reports that Bobby Fis-. cher was recently interviewed -on the Dick Cavett show and was asked how hed feel if he lost to Spassky in the big one. Not bad, said Bobby, I would know it was a fluke! Dann is also urging the Postal Service to issue' a commemorative stamp honoring chess and Harry Nelosd Pillsbury. born 100 years ago in Massachusetts.

Pillsbury was a great Grandmaster, but is remembered mostly as one of those in the shadow of the amazing Emmanuel Lasker. -World Champion for about 30 years. If a chess stamp is issued, we suggest it would more appropriately picture Paul Mor- phy of New Orleans, who was unofficial world champion -about 1850. but the only Amer. kan (so far) to hold the title in any way.

May your Pawns become Queens. 'ARIES (March 21-April 19): Entertain at home. Stick to familiar ground. Refuse to be led astray by one who makes promises. Ask questions, obtain answers.

Be Be aware of basic values. Hold something in reserve. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Be prepared for surprise message, call or visitor. But dont believe everything you hear instead, discern and analyze. Obtain valid hint fom Aris message.

Family member has surprise. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Money situation is spotlighted. Someone is encouraging you to buy a pig in a poke. This is another way of saying see what you are to get for expenditure. Pisces person is much in picture.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Get going. You need not hold back way has been cleared. You get backing from one with experience and assets. Capricorn is involved. Lunar cycle is high; make new starts, in new directions.

Stress originality. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Finish project, assignment. Dont be tempted into premature start. Study potentiaL Make completion your key word.

Be discreet. Play cards close to chest. Meeting which occurs behind scenes affects you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

This is especially true with a hobby which is growing by leaps and bounds in this area, i.e. bottle collecting. Therefore, with The Collectors Book Of Bottles by Marian Klamkin, published by Dodd, Mead Co.

at $8.95 we turned to that active and knowledgeable member of the Dirigo Bottle Club, Jack LaFountain. His comments were glowing and include the statement that to the collector of glass bottles this book is a must. He points out that while there are many brochures and scholarly little papers upon the subject this author brings the search to life and relates her subject to the field today. She puts together the story of bottle collecting from early historical and pictorial flasks to the newer bottles eagerly sought. Whiskey, bitters, medicines, inks, fruit jars are all discussed in a colorful and Interesting way.

The photography is unusually spectacular and includes over 400 illustrations of some of the most sought after bottles making this an invaluable reference source not only for the beginner but the advance collector. Included in the Ink section is a picture of the very rare inkwell J.P.F.. The cm-bossed initials, she explains, stand for J. P. Foster who was superintendent of the Pitkin Glass Works of Manchester, around 1810.

From this book you learn of the history of the glass industry in America, characteristics of old bottles, their care and repair and as lagniappe, suggestions for housing a bottle collection. The author's previously published books include the subjects of Art Nouveau, boxes and Wedgwood, among The Collector's Book Of Bottles will serve to entertain and educate any devotee of this fascinating hobby. This is the gist of what Mr. LaFountain said and hes a collector who should know. MARION FLOOD FRENCH (Cl New York Timei Newe Bmlo FICTION The Winds of War.
