“| don't think all that natural food is doing you any good!"’

DEAR ABBY: I have subscribed to a theater uid since

- 1935. For the last four seavons f have had a laughing hyena

seated beside me, and she spoils my theater!

Is there any way | can ask her.to please tone down her annoying laugh? Those seated in front of her have given up. and no longer turn around to show their annoyance.

I've had this seat on the nisle and near the stage fur 10

- years, 80° I don't want lo ask for a change of seat. What do you suggest?

DEAR IRKED: You could ask her to please try to tone down her laughter, Bui because lnughter is spontaneous and nat easily contralled, it probably’ wouldn't help. .

Asa subscriber for 45 years, you should be entitled

. tochange your seat to one equally desirable. Request it, and state your reason. And if the management won't move you, it may move the “hyena.”
