DEAR ABBY: Ron is 21 and I am 19.. We're newlyweds, ©

and our problem is the TV in our bedroom. Ron likes to lie
in bed and watch TV until midnight every night, and soma
nights he watches it until 1 am. -~

Iwant to turn off the TV at 11 p.m. because I have to get
up at 7 a.m. for work, and if [don’t get eight hours of sleep,
Iam very crabby the next morning. Ron gets up at 7a,m.,
too, but he says he doesn’t need as much sleep as I do.

Anyway, I can’t fall asleep while the TV is on, and Ron
refuses to turn it off at 11. :

How can this problem be solved? Don't suggest earplugs
because I've tired them, and they bother my ears,

: CRABBY

DEAR CRABBY: You have two choices, Separate
rooms, or a 60-50 compromice. (Turn the TV off at 11 every
OTHER night.] But remember, although a compromise
makes a good umbrella, it’s a poor roof,

DEAR ABBY: I work for a large corporation and for the

last few weeks, my boss has been acting very secretive. I
walked into his office yesterday, and he quickly slammed
his desk drawer shut. Then I noticed smoke coming out of.
the drawer, but I didn’t say anything.

He supposedly stopped smoking three months ago, but I
know he's at it again because I've seen him in the hall with
a cigarette in his hand. He tried to hide it, but I'm sure he
knows that I saw him. .

I'm afraid he might try to ditch another burnmg
cigarette in his desk drawer, forget about it and burn up
the building.

Don’t you think he's acting very immature for a
55-year-old executive?

Should I write him an anonymous note and ask him who

he thinks he’s fooling?
: ® fooling ONTO HIM

DEAR ON: No, Anonymous notes are also immature.
But do tell him that in the interest of safety for others, he
should refrain from placing lighted cigarettes in the

awer.

DEAR ABBY: Is marriage contagious? It seems to be an
epidemic around here. I'm 21, male and single, and one by
one, all my friends are getting married.

My first love went away to college, and during the first
quarter, she fell in love with a theology major, and they
decided to get married. Now she’s pregnant, and I don’t
lmow whether to cuss or pray.

Another old girlfriend is soon to marry the drummer of a

_rock group. Other good friends, male and female, are
headed in that direction.

Why would anyone want to end the fun of being young
and footloose by getting hitched so soon? All of them are
under 21, Is marriage a contagious disease? I hope not.

. SINGLE IN SEATTLE

DEAR SINGLE: Marriage in a sence is “contagious” —
like divorce, shacking up, or growing a bread; some people
got the courage to do it because their friends have made
the move.

_. But you're safe. Anyone who suspects that marriage is a
“disease” ip probably immune,
