ISN'T Clinic Averts Teenage Unwed Pregnancies SAN ANTONIO, Tex. - Is there a way to help sexually active teenage girls avoid un wanted, unplanned, out-of wedlock prepnnde4? Physicians who have work ed with such "at rift" girls for more than a year in a special adolescent clinic in Baltimore reported at a recent medical meeting here that they believe there is. Alarmed by the increase in illegitimate births in their city, and by the fact that every year for the past five years more than 1,000 gilts aged 14 to 16 have given birth to live in fants, health authorities joined forces to bring what they des cribed as a major "chronic ill ness" under control. A clink proving "a vast, continuing spectrum of aid" was established at a voluntary hospital to meet the special needs of these adolescent gills, fsychologfeal and emotional support, complete medical and dental care, health education, as well as contraceptive coun selling and sex education were all part of the program. Problems Aired In small biweekly group sessions, the giris were encour aged to discuss problems im portant to them. Common sub jects, in addition to sex, were personal hygiene, contracep tion, and illegitimate pregnan cy. In the first 15 months of the program, some 200 giris came to the clinic for help with a variety of problems. Of these, 69 were eligible for and accepted contraceptive services. "The only criteria for eligibil ity," the report noted, "are sexual activity and parental or guardian's consent." mat Vital The physicians observed that some giris at first refused contraceptive services, appar ently in the belief that such help was preferred only be cause the adults disapproved of their sexual activities. When the giris came to trust the adults and to believe that they wefe there to help them and not to judge them they re turned for contraceptive coun selling. One of every four giris in the group given contraception was between the ages of 12 and 14. The physicians em phasized that in view of the "realities of our society" giris must be reached with counsel ling early rather than late in puberty. While a variety of birth con trot methods was offered, it became evident that the giris preferred the pills. "It is the only form of contraception that is universally acceptable to these young people," ac cording to the physicians.

The symptoms are universal—whining, moodiness and the plain old "mopes" and "grouchies." Happily, child guidance experts havq set forth these iommon-sense hints for constructively motivating the child who doesn't know what to do with him- or herself: Give a sympathetic ear to your child's complaints. It may prove possible to win the child over by explaining that you often get bored, too. Suggest specific activities with strong creative dimensions. As' a variation on the ever-popular lemonade Stand, encourage the small fry to make and display handicraft items for sale. Even rocks painted for use as paper weights may find a ready market. Indoors or outdoors, use a card table and blanket, pitch a "tent" and provide your youngster with the do-it-yourself ingredients for a picnic. On rainy days, make-believe games appeal. Cardboard .boxes can be fastened together and dec orated to resemble cars, boats, trains and spacecraft, providing make-believe fun. Art supplies always fascinate and they need not be "store bought." Bits and pieces of dis carded costume jewelry can be pasted on paper to create highly original designs, as can pieces of uncooked macaroni, often availa ble in highly decorative shapes. Pictures cut out of magazines can be pasted on pieces of paper to create story-telling picture books. Choosing Toy* In the final analysis, however, toys offer the best means of oc cupying attention spans. Choice of toys is all-important. Function ally realistic toys that teach while entertaining are receiving highest marks from child experts these days. "Outdoor toys for the lawn, beach or sandbox are the thing for summer," according to Myron Masny, chairman of the Structo Peanut Bill Is Delayed WASHINGTON » - A House agriculture sub committee chairman Monday said be will not try to pusb enactment of a new peanut price support bill because of a congressional kxriam. Happiness is a toy that performs work, enabling a child to assume grown-up roles as an engineer. Toy Guidance Board, "but they should do more than beguile the child for an hour or so. They should have a residual value to the child that will help equip him to deal in understandable terms with the emerging world around him." Heavy-duty trucks and road building equipment, like the dump truck and sand hopper pictured above, are particularly popular.' Others are city-service oriented vehicles like law enforcement, sanitation, fire and rescue trucks that feature options, such as long aerial ladders, snorkles and other moving parts that duplicate real life actions. The important thing in fighting summer boredom, the experts uni versally agree, is to divert the child's attention from himself and direct it into socially' acceptable activities, and toys and games seem to fill the bill better than anything. Rep. Maston O'Neal, D-Ga., said his subcommittee has completed its report on the bill after conducting hearings last week but he will not present the measure to the full com mittee. O'Neal's office issued £ statement saying "some disagreement and indecision among proponents about how best to proceed, coupled with extremely crowded calendars in final weeks of Congress, made it most unlikely that the bill could pass both houses before adjournment." "We are spinning our wheels," O'Neal said.
