12 Nashua Telegraph, Wednesday, November 14,1973 DEARABBY Wants Wife Filled Out, Not 'Bursting At Seams' DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have been married for five years. I've always told her that I prefer well-filled out girls to skinny ones. Mywife is really overweight, but knowing that I like a well-padded body has given her an excuse to get sloppy fat. She is 5 feet 2. weighs about 170 pounds, and is still gaining.

I've hinted that she should start reducing, but to no avail. How can I get it across to her that I would like her to lose about 40 pounds? AIR FORCE HUSBAND DEAR HUSBAND: Quit hinting, and tell her that by "well- filled out" you do not mean, "bursting at the seams." Tell her, too, that carrying around all that excess weight is un- a a heartbroken were she to drop dead of high blood pressure or heart trouble, because then you'd be forced to replace her Guns Silent in the Mideast But Not Israel's Generals By MARCUS ELIASON TEL AVIV (AP) The guns are silent along the Suez Canal and the Golan Heights, but Israel's army is convulsed by an overdose of political recriminations brought on by the initial setbacks of the October war. Until the war, army censorship did not allow any newspaper to quote a soldier general as well as corporal on his political views. But this policy has faltered in the welter of accusations over who was to blame for the surprise achieved by the Egyptian and Syrian attack and the Arabs' initial success. The battle of words could affect the outcome of the national elections at the end of December.

The key figures in the battle of words have been Maj. Gen. Ariel Sharon, who led the daring Israeli thrust across the Suez Canal to encircle the Egyptian 3rd Army; Lt. Gen. Haim Bar-lev, the assistant chief of staff who gave his name to the canal defense line that the Egyptians overran, and NEAI Frats in Campus Cleanup a Aeronautical Institute and Daniel Webster Junior College veterans' fraternity, Phi Beta Upsilon, met Delta Pi Kappa fraternity in a campus cleanup contest over the weekend.

Tying for the title of Number One in garbage, the a brothers totaled 34 bags in 30 minutes, tied at 17 each. The official score keeper for the contest was PBY member, Brian Firmin. Planned as a twice-yearly event, the frat brothers will once again place themselves at the school's disposal for a cleanup in the spring. the chief of staff, Lt. Gen.

David Elazar, who has been trying to hold the line for Premier Golda Meir's government. Sharon in peacetime is a right-wing politician, and his exploit on the battlefield indicated he might take some votes away from Mrs. Meir's socialist Labor party in the election. Then he told an American newsman his superiors had a a i forcements to bolster the spearhead he put across the canal. Elazar angrily retorted: "It may be less glamorous to fight to hold a bridgehead than to drive your tanks into Africa." Bar-lev, a cabinet minister and supporter of Meir who was returned to uniform for the war, was the next to join the fray.

Possibly nettled by the comparison between the Barlev Line and France's useless Maginot Line in World War II, he wrote in a local newspaper that the army was totally unready for the war and that there was insufficient armor and artillery behind the canal line. This was considered an oblique attack on Defense Minister Moshe Dayan, whose political views Bar-lev is known to oppose, as well as a defense of the Bar-lev Line. Elazar, in a talk with newspaper editors, said the generals were talking.for "personal enhancement." He said he would investigate to determine what disciplinary action he could take against them; Elazar admitted the military, had made mistakes and promised a military inquiry. The cabinet also is considering a probe. The newspaper Maariv called for an independent investigation and not "interviews of generals accusing each other of failures, evaluating their achievements on the basis of political affiliations." with a younger, slimmer, healthier woman.

(THAT should do It!) DEAR ABBY: I would like to get the opinion of some hairdressers. My mother passed away, and a few hours later I a phone call from a hairdresser saying she had heard the sad news, and wanted to come to the funeral home to fix my mother's hair. She said she thought so much of Mom she felt that this was the last favor she could do for her. I thanked her, and told her I appreciated her generosity. (No mention was made of money.) A a this hairdresser called the funeral home and demanded $15.

Of course I saw to it that she got her money, but I really think i is a-shame that a person would call and offer her services as a "friend," and then ask for money. She later said it was against the law-to do that kind of work for free. Is it? JUST WONDERING DEAR JUST: If it is, It's news to me. Hairdressers? DEAR ABBY: My husband says he thinks I don't like being married. I asked him why, and he said: "Because of the comments you make single people, like, 'You're not missing or, 'You don't know when you're well I know this sounds like a reflection on my marriage, but I'm not speaking of mine.

I'm referring to the majority of marriages I read about in your and also to the statistics. As a single person, I had no debts and was able to save a large sum of money. Since I've been married, I haven't saved a dollar and we always are in debt. How can I convince my husband that I am satisfied with my marriage? I explained to that I was not'referring to our marriage, but only to marriages in general. BIG MOUTH DEAR BIG MOUTH: You will have a tough time convincing him and also me!

HANKY BOSTON (AP) Is computer dating the answer to highway congestion and the shriking supply of gasoline? Maybe, if a Boston radio station proves that it can use advertising, a catchy name and public conscience to make car pools a fashionable way of getting to work. So far, the "commuter computer club car" has' been a moderate success, says the Environmental Protection Agency, which has included the program in its latest plan to clean up Boston's air pollution. It works like computer dating.

People send applications to station WBZ with such information as where they work and when they get there. Then a computer operated by ALA Auto Trcvol Club sends them lists of up to 10 people in their neighborhoods with similar requirements. In the past seven weeks, 6,000 applications have been processed, and promoters say the idea, seems to be catching on. "It's a whole new way to get to work," say the ads that show the program's cartoon symbol-a 1938 Pontiac touring car with a serene driver and a load of passengers in the back laughing and drinking coffee. "Car pools have a World War II kind of image," said Jerry Wishnow of WBZ, one of the orignators of the program.

"We've tried to change that with public service advertising that makes it as attractive and promotable as possible." The station, which has been doing similar public service campaigns for about five years, has pushed group commuting with twice-an-hour radio spots, TV commericials, billboard and magazine and newspaper "We're working with them very closely to try to make this a success," said Paul Keough, a spokesman for the Environmental Protection Agency. The agency has urged all federal workers in Boston to sign up for the commuter car pool, and the state has asked for a few months notice in case the station decides to drop the program so that it can take it over. "The state would have had to set up a program of this kind eventually, anyway, to meet federal air pollution standards," Keough said. "We think it's going' to make a difference in lowering air pollution levels and easing traffic congestion." One early participant in the program is Judith Mitchell, a secretary who commutes about 20 miles from Framingham to Boston. "It's terrific," she said.

"I save money, and I like having somebody else in the car with me." Tesguino, a beer made from sprouted corn, is important to the Tarahumara people of Northern Mexico. The Shaman uses it when blessing people, animals, fields or the harvest. When someone needs a big job done, like weeding a field, he invites friends' to drink the beverage: they do the work and receive tesguino in return.
