Fulk Muhlenberg grad Catherine Gelatko Dear Abby By Abigail Van Buren DEAR ABBY: Please don't think I am some kind of kook, because I'm not. I am an attractive 24-year-old, level-headed southern girl who would like to know if there is a way I can get a date with Elvis Presley without having any big connections. I am not a screaming fan who has all his records and would attack him on sight. In fact, 1 have none of his records, but I have attended some of his concerts, and I do love the way he sings.

I know there must be at least five million other girls who would like to date him, and he has to date someone, so why not me? I honestly believe I could show him a good time. Please print this and maybe, just maybe, Elvis will realize that he might be missing the chance of a lifetime if he doesn't meet me. Keep my name and phone number, Abby, but don't publish it. If Elvis wants it, he can get in touch with me through you. Sign WAITING FOR ELVIS IN LOUISIANA DEAR WAITING: You deserve an for effort and a 'T" for trying.

(Also a for chutzpah.) I'll keep your name and number. Okay, Elvis, it's your move. DEAR ABBY: The other evening I telephoned a very good restaurant to reserve a table for dinner. When my reservation was confirmed, I was told that the gentlemen were expected to wear neckties and jackets. Considering myself a gentleman, and having every intention of wearing a tie and jacket, I was a bit miffed.

Why, I wonder, didn't they specify what the LADIES were expected to wear? Isn't that discrimination? FOR EQUAL RIGHTS DEAR FOR: Now that you point it out, it is. But I suppose the line must be drawn somewhere, or some males will show up in tank tops or bare from their Bermuda shorts upward, which is not very appetizing. The squeaking wheel gets the grease so squeak a little as a matter of principle. DEAR ABBY: I wish you would settle a difference of opinion that has caused much resentment and hard feelings in our family. My daughter-in-law, who lives quite a distance away, spends her vacation visiting my home.

When she is here, she feels that the relatives who live in town should contact her and make an effort to see her. On the other hand, the relatives who live here feel that my daughter-in-law should call THEM to say that she's in town and would like to see them. Who should do the calling? IN THE MIDDLE DEAR IN: The visitor should call those whom she wants to see. But since she is always your houseguest, you could easily solve the problem by inviting all the relatives over for a gathering of the clan. DEAR ABBY: You don't waste words, so I won't either.

Do you believe in luck? BERNIE DEAR BERNIE: Certainly. How else could one explain the success of his enemies? Everyone has a problem. What's yours? For a personal reply, write to ABBY: Box No. 69700, L.A., Calif. 90069.
