Dear Ann Leaders: A Aeon - age boy who lives in our neigh- borhood has been coming around collecting for various "good causes." We admire his concern for humanity and never failed to give him a donation. - Now we are becoming suspicious. He never brings any literature, he just reciter a 'rehearsed •Tittle "speech about multiple' sclerosis, birth defects,'" the American Cancer Societry, epilepsy, the Kidney Foundation, and yesterday it was muscular distrophy. A few minuses sifter we gave him the donation yesterday, my wife went to the bakery. She ran into him there. He was buying a , dozen doughnuts. It occurred to her that he just might be spending the dollar we gave him for muscular distrophy. We know the boy's parents' and I think I ought to speak to them. My wife says, absolutely not. She has made me feel like some sort of a paranoid nut. What do you; think?..Big Doubts Dear Big: I think. the young man may have discovered how tosucceed in business without really working.

It's the little stuff that makes me so mad I want to pack the bum's clothes and throw him out. Every night it's the same story. Mike doesn't want any dessert -just coffee. As soon as I bring out some lovely, delicate cake or pie I baked with my own two hands, Mike lights up a stinky cigar and commences to use his dinner plate as an ashtray. When he has finished with his cigar he mashes it out in the leftover meat and potatoes and I get sick to my stomach. If I told him once I told him 40 times to get up and get himself an ashtray.

Next --buy a great big ashtray and keep it right where you can grab it and put it directly in front of Mike the minute you serve the coffee. It's easier than throwing the bum out, honey, especially since he's a good husband and you've got five kids. Dear Ann Landers: Twenty lashes with the wet noodle for you, lady. You told the man who found the quarter on the seat of the taxi that he should have given it to ` the driver because it was legally his. We studied a similar case in com- mercial law at Central High and you are wrong. Illinois law says the man can keep the money because the back seat of a taxi is a public place. Take your punishment and we'll forgive you. --Legal Eagle Dear 1.4e: You must have slept through that class and dreamed a little, In Illinois, a taxi is not a public place. It its a privately -owned vehicle used as a common carrier. The driver has full custody of the vehicle. A passenger is not in possession of the cab and has no right to ' property found therein.
