To Girl , 13 , Beatles are Teen- Age Dream

It’s hard to explain what makes the Beatles so wonderful because I don’t completely understand why I think they are.

Anti- Beatleites (they are a few) simply cannot understand why other people are crazy about the Beatles who arrived here from London Friday.

“Good heavens!” they exclaim. “They’re not even good looking” As if that should explain everything.

A friend of mine got so disgusted when people kept telling her the Beatles weren’t good looking that she screamed: “Their music is fantastic and that’s all I care about”

And their music is fantastic

Tot he average adult it would sound like nothing more than a conglomeration of noises, screams, howls and other classified sounds.

To the ecstatic teen-ager lying in front of her hi-fi , it’s sheer heaven.

Its insistent beat (which is how the Beatles got their names) is great to dance all the latest dances to including the new one called “The Beatle” Perhaps most important, the songs are about the subjects teenagers can identify themselves with.

The title of the record “Boys” is enough to send millions of teenage girls to the record stores. With a title like that, it has to be good!

Whether the Beatles are good looking or not, they’re certainly different. They have wild senses of humor. When asked why he wore four wings on his fingers, Ringo replied “Because I can’t fit them all through my nose”

For heaven’s sake, I don’t know EXACTLY why girls fall in love with Beatles.

All I know is, when John growls during a song “Okay, George give it to ’em” a chill runs down the spine of every girls listening
