Well ? as part of a plan to
conduct coast - to - coast hook
ups on our teen-age friends for this
column's readers, let's tune in to
Boston today, and see what AP re
porter Richard Sinnott says . . .
. . . The high school set in
Boston has borrowed .a bit of bop
in its '54 edition of slanguage.
No matter who you are or where
you are, you're certain to be
addressed as "Dad" by those who
make the lexicon rules.
"I dig you the most," means
we're in complete accord. If a
he, she or it is described as the
"end," the "greatest" the "over
all" "real cool" or "keerazy."
why, Dad, that means it's just
about the ultimate.
Dorchester High School re
cently went co-ed after some 30
years of having separate schools
? for the boys and girls. The ma
jority of the students think this
stroke of good luck is simply "th?
mostest."
Some of the more studious lads
consider the invasion of the "frail"
a gross injustice. The dissenters
are referred to as "toads," that is,
they belong in the "tough all ov
er department."
At Brookline High School Joe
Sylvano is a "real something" or
a "3-D." On Friday hight Joe of
. ten "drags a doll" to a dance."
Cute Connie Snider, also of
Brookline High, has "frosting on
her forehead." She has a hair-do
with bangs.
In nearby Newton if a girl is
being "tracked by an elephant,"
she's dancing with a lightweight
who's not so light . . . on her feet.
At Quincy High anyone who
makes the honor roll is known as
a "slurper." The announcement
that a glad lad has won public
commendation is usually accom
panied by a refrain of, "Night and
day he's been slurping around . . "
Seventeen-year-old Ann Dahlbo
is a "druell." The beautiful senior
at Milton High is the girl all
the boys want to go "nogging" with.
? A "nog" is that kiss you build a
dream on.
Betty Muldoon, also a senior
it Milton High, comes up with
a definition of a boy that's the
'greatest." "A boy," says Betty,
"is a disappointment."
At Hyde Park High School, the
principal's office is termed the
"pentagon." If a "wailing sheet"
is passed out, forget your hand
kerchief qnd remember your notes
. . . it's exam time.
Dick'Keddy, IT, of East Milton,
haa a girl friend so he belongs
in "I-H-O" ategory. That, dolls,
means "lt'? hand off."
About once a week Ronnie Rom
ano of Boaton Latin gets the
"wheela" (car) to take his "chick"
to the "snack pit." (a drive-In
restaurant.)
On the South Shore football hero
George Williamson la thought of by
the girls to have "perdynooka."
Unravelled, this means George haa
a combination of personality, dy
namite and good looks.
Dave Cleary of Oedham High la
described as "in a super stupor."
(he'a Just in love.)
White ahirta (father's) and how
tiea (brother's) are tM most pop
ular items of female claaaroom
dress. The boy* are going In for
loud, plaid, flannel shirts. White
buck shoes are popular, but have
to be dirty to be stylish.
Model Tt are painted in plaids
and convertible car tope are bought
in plaids. Bill Jaunbral says, "Dad,
you're really aad with a bit of
plaid."
Muaic-wise, the "big band" erase
seems to have died out around
the Beantown. Many nickels still
find their way into the Juke box
es.

the second project before the last
few days of the school year.

The members especially wish tp ex

will begin next week, and the FHA

the business of stocking selling
and still eager and ready to take
every order. Readers arc remind
