Dear Ears; Yes, it is. The operative words are timing and determination. The host or hostess must leap in when the hog fin. ashes a sentence or takes a breath. He should say, "I'd like to ask a question and I want 011ie or Dolly or Zolly to answer. If Big Mouth` starts to answer, the host or hostess should repeat. "No — this question is for 011ie," and he must hold the floor until 011e takes over, * Dear Ann Landers; We live in a development which has a, large playground area, Our son who is 12 has told us about a young lad in his mid -teens who' is looked up to by the younger boys. They both- admire ,and. fear him. This past week we have heard that this boy has been perform. ing sadistic acts such as tor. turfing animals in ways I won't even describe, This is the same boy my husband reprimanded for shooting sparrows with a B.B. gun last year. I worry about where it will end. Is it possible that these small voiceless creatures will not appease his hunger -for thrills? Will the boy one day feel the need to torture a young human? What should be done, Ann Landers? I am relubtant to speak to him or to ,his par. ents for fear he may become angry and take it out on, our children.
