But it would have been much better for everyone if we had talked things over and reached a family decision." Another idea also haunts Pat. "We were so lucky. When I think of what could have happened if either of us had gotten sick ... if I hadn't been able to work . . . We took such an awful risk . . ." It was characteristic of Pat that he had nothing to say about how hard he tried to diminish that risk, how he worked a full time job at a radio station, went to college and continued to enter talent contests, striving for that big break which would turn him into a capable breadwinner for his family. It was no accident that the marriage .turned out as well as it did. Both Pat and Shirley have worked to make it so. How he feels about it today was reflected in his answer to another letter. A girl; with typical teenage dramatization of even a remote circumstance, wrote that she had fainted when some one told her that Pat and Shirley had filed for divorce. Pat dictated his answer to that one in a matter of minutes: "I was very distressed to hear about the rumor that my wonderful wife Shirley and I were 'breaking up.' If you know me, you will not believe such ridiculous rumors. I consider myself one of the luckiest men in the world to be married to the most wonderful girl in the world." HE was sympathetic, however, when a 13-year-old girl confided, "I am faced with one of the worst problems of my life. My mother and father quarrel, not once in a while, but often, too often. They argue all the time about trivial things and I am sure this will end in a divorce. If this happens, it will ruin my brother's life and mine. What can I do? I am brokenhearted and have no one to turn to except, perhaps, you. Would you help me?" Pat wrote: "I am deeply sorry and I wish I could help you, but a problem like this is difficult for an outsider to solve. We all have problems and I have always found that a good close friend or minister who knows you and your family can greatly help. I hope that with time and prayer your family may once again be filled with happiness and joy. We will be praying for you." He had very concrete suggestions for a girl who wrote that she had been out of school for two years and was finding it difficult to work during the day and attend classes at night. This was the Pat who well knew what it was like to go to school at odd hours. "It is difficult to get back to studying when you have been away from it for two years. It is also especially difficult to attend night schools when one is working during the day. Sometimes one's mind does not work as well in the evening as it does during the day. I'm sure you have a fine ■V PAT admits he and Shirley took an awfu risk. "Eloping wasn't the right thing to do. mind and with a little more effort you wil find your study habits improving. Ther are also schools which give advice cor cerning note taking and studying prol lems. You might ask your teacher abou this. I admire you for continuing in school I'm sure you will do very well." Hardest of all to answer are those lei ters from young people who want Pat t help them get a start in show business Some, do not want to understand that h is neither a coach nor a booking agen and that it is impossible for him to giv them the direct assistance which so man; of them request To them he must write: "I know hov difficult it seems to get started in a caree and wish there were some really concreti advice I could give you. The most im portant is, of course, just plain hard work The experience which is so necessary t( you might well be gotten if you do youi best to sing for a lot of community affair: as I did. It's really valuable toward build ing that self-confidence you need." Because of Pat's own appearances as i guest preacher for Church of Christ con gregations and his often re-affirmed state ments of faith in Cod, it is natural tha many teenagers turn to him when the) begin searching, intellectually and emo tionally, for a guiding faith of their own While he staunchly cites the reasons wh) the Church of Christ is the church foi him, he believes that the choice o\ churches must be individual. To one bo) he wrote: "I have never been in a position where I would tell someone which way to turn toward the many religions. I have great respect for those who wholeheartedy be lieve their respective faiths." His feeling toward those who believe they have a religious calling was best expressed in a letter which he wrote to a young English girl who was upset be n il i :
