By Abigail Van Buren © 1977 by Chicago Tribune-N.Y News Synd. Inc. DEAR ABBY: Is it possible to find out a person’s name and address if you have his automobile license number? Or will you have to answer a lot of questions first? You see, I was kind of wandering around a shopping center during my lunch break, when a beautiful older man caught my eye. He went into a jewelry store and I followed him. I was drawn to him like a magnet. He was shopping for an anniversary gift for his wife, and I offered to help him select something. We kidded around and he said he had a daughter in college about my age. Abby, you’re going to think I’m crazy, but I have never met a man who attracted me the way this one did. I can’t get him out of my mind. I don’t even know his name, but I walked him to his car and took down his license number. I’ve just got to see him again! I’m 22 and believe me, this was love at first sight. I even dream about him. Can you help me? IN A DAZE IN MINNEAPOLIS DEAR IN: It’s possible to find out a person's name if you have his license number in Minnesota, but you will have to answer a lot of questions first, so I don't recommend trying. The magnetism you experienced is “physical attraction,” and it happens every day. For your sake (and his) forget him, dear. DEAR ABBY: The letter from the woman who had cancer and some of her friends avoided contact with her because they thought she was “contaminated and contagious” was sad indeed. May I add a little to what I have learned since working with The American Diabetes Association? This malfunction (it is not really a disease) is also badly misunderstood. One woman called our office to ask where she should go for a V.D. test! Asked if she associated diabetes with venereal disease, she replied, "Why, yes, of course.” Another woman, whose husband is diabetic, had refused to share a bed with him for years. (She feared contagion.) Since 1900, diabetes has risen from 13th to third place as a killer (heart is first, cancer second) and is the leading cause of new cases of blindness and amputations of extremities. Abby, please urge your readers to learn more about diabetes in order to better understand the people who suffer from it. CONCERNED DEAR CONCERNED: I will. For more information write to The American Diabetes Association, 1 West 48th Street, New York, New York 10020. They will direct you to the affiliate nearest you where free brochures are available. DEAR ABBY: My husband’s ex-wife and children live in another city. When he visits them, he sleeps at his ex-wife’s house, in a separate bedroom. His ex is unmarried, and although he insists that their relationship is now platonic, I feel insecure and uncomfortable. When I met my husband he was already divorced and insisted he wanted nothing more to do with his ex-wife. Now when he visits her he goes on picnics with her and the children, and takes them to dinner, just like old times. I know my husband loves me, but this situation bugs me. He has asked me to accompany him on those trips and try to be friends with his ex-wife. I refuse to go. Am I being unreasonable? CONFUSED DEAR CONFUSED: Yes. Perhaps if you went, you’d no longer feel insecure and uncomfortable. It’s worth a try. Everyone has a problem. What's yours? For a personal reply, write to ABBY: Box No. 69700, L.A., Calif. 90069. Enclose stamped, self-addressed envelope, please. Air wedding MASON CITY, lowa (AP) - The wedding of Dawn Friedley and Bert Roberts Jr. will be held Saturday or Sunday — weather permitting. They plan to become man and wife while floating a mile above Mason City in a hot air balloon. “It will be only the fourth time since 1800 that this has happened,” said Dave Friedley, the bride’s father and a balloon enthusiast. The wedding will be a formal affair, complete with tuxedos, a ringbearer, confetti and tape recorded music and will be fol lowed by an impromptu cham pagne reception in a farm field wherever the craft comes down. In case of rain or high winds, the wedding will be held at the Friedley home in Mason City. Enough reading WEST ORANGE, N.J. (AP) — The mayor of this Essex County community says he likes to read, but enough is enough. Mayor William F. Cuozzi has been receiving hundreds of dol lars worth of magazine sub scriptions, vocational school courses and book club member ships in his name but without his permission. He said he doesn’t know who is behind the campaign, but he has alerted postal authorities and sent a form letter to each of the vendors sending the un solicited material to his office. “There are so many of them I can’t send them back, so I have written a letter to each seller telling them to come and pick up the product,” he said. Former Griffinite Sen. Tate vies for GAE position There is no question that the main issue in last week’s Georgia Education Association (GAE) convention was his appointment as executive secretary, according to Dr. Horace Tate, the association’s associate executive secretary. The former principal of Fairmont High School in Griffin said the yet unsettled matter was “paramount in the minds of the delegates in attendance.” Tate serves as associate executive secretary of the 34,000 member teacher association. He assumed the position following the merging of the Georgia Teachers and Education Association and the Georgia Education Association. He was executive secretary of the GTE&A from 1961 until the time of the merger, May 9,1970. Under the provisions of the merger, Dr. Carl Hodges would become executive secretary of the new organization and Dr. Tate would assume the associate position. “Since there were two people involved, it is a valid assumption that if one dropped out the one left would assume the position,” Tate said. Hodges resigned the position in January effective July 1. Tate says some of the board members oppose his appointment. He, however, feels he will get the appointment. “There are enough good thinking people on the board to see that justice is done,” he said. In his speech to the convention’s general assembly, Tate alluded to his assuming the position. He said it appeared that 90 percent of the teachers and school administrators in attendance felt he should have the position. In the speech, Tate pointed out that his job as state senator Did you know your Master Charge card can save you money? Save money on big purchases.

The Georgia Legislature is in session for 40 days and some had questioned his maintaining the two positions. Tate said he assured them that there would be no conflict concerning the two jobs because he has spent 90 percent of his time on Capitol Hill during the General Assembly any way since 1961. He said that time was spent lobbying for programs designed to enhance the educatipnal welfare of children and teachers in the state. He said he doesn’t necessarily have to spend 90 percent of his time now on Capitol Hill because he now has the vote. “To have an executive secretary of a 34,000 member organization in the senate pleading for and supporting educational programs is one of the most potent positions to be in,” Tate added. Tate feels most legislators believe in education anyway. “If they know I’m representing teachers they will be more prone to listen and to follow through with the vote,” Senator Tate continued. He further analogized his belief concerning non-conflict of interest for the two jobs. “There is no more conflict of interest in being executive secretary and senator than there is in being a daddy and a husband,” he said. Concerning payment for the senatorial job, Tate says he gives the GAE the $343.59 a month he gets from the state for the two months spent in the Georgia General Assembly. “I want to be sure there is no question as to whether money figures in relation to the two jobs,” he commented. Page 5 — Griffin Daily News Friday, April 1,1977 He said he spends at least as much as his state salary going to numerous banquets and for senatorial paper work. There is no secretarial help provided to state senators. Dr. Tate served as principal of Fairmont High School in Griffin from 1951-57. He was also a chemistry teacher and coached girls basketball. After leaving Griffin he earned his doctorate degree and taught at Fort Valley State College and Atlanta University. Since then he has conducted seminars and summer courses at Tuskegee Institute, the University of Nebraska and the University of Kentucky. ► a unisex boutique for those who dress a cut above ./i > <■ ■■ i ——' ' m J I J® NORTHGATE CENTER MEN’S CASUAL i!
