To All Persons Interested: Joseph Frank Mon ford has filed a petition with the County Judge in Galveston County, Texas, on the 3rd day of July, 1967, for a Beer By JOY MILLER ASSOCIATED FRESS STAFF WRITER NEW YORK (AP) — Have you heard more four-letter words lately? A New York psychiatrist and psychoanalyst, Dr. Renatus Hartogs, says that obscene words are becoming chic. Surprisingly—except to a psychiatrist—it’s the decorous middle class matron who is making the most of her opportunities to drop four letter bon mots into sophisticated conversation. Fifty years ago she would have managed to have her skirt creep demurely above her ankle. Today she may smile sweetly and turn the air blue with barracks language. It's all part of playing the four-letter word game, as Dr. Hartogs terms it, which provides ‘a socially acceptable projection surface for repressed motives and instinctual needs.” In his recently published book ‘Four-Letter Word Games,” the _ psychiatrist attributes the increasing popularity of ‘‘dirty talk” to the Chatterley syndrome. The acceptance of formerly taboo ~words in middle class speech. He says it dates from 1959, when a U.S. District Court liberated “Lady Chatterley’s Lover” from the bonds of censorship. “The lower classes always have used these words,” said Dr. Hartogs in an interview, “but now in certain middle class circles it's very ‘progressive’—put that in quotes—to drop a little word that has shock value. “Now there is a definite loosening on traditional moral values which primarily affects women, who have been forced to hide behind what I call ‘the shame barrier.’ It has not been the role of women to be rebellious, but as they become more aggressive intellectually and sexually, they are more inclined to use words that reflect antivalue.” He says that cocktail parties —“where flirtation and qusisexual pursuit are part of a stylized ritual’—are the principal playground for these new conversational gambits. The dirty word expresses something of a person’s secret wishes and images. ‘‘At the same time it tests society's reaction, or at least the reaction of the person to whom it is addressed. By this kind of word game, the person can—at least on the symbolic level—strike a balance between his own needs and the norms and rules of society,” he says. The four-letter word game allows a woman to remain physically within accepted bounds while committing symbolic transgressions, he says “Her stylish use of profanity openly violates nothing more than fading conventions of polite discourse; yet by implication it overthrows a broad spectrum of restraints.” “The dirty joke, at least in adult life, is almost exclusively in the male Legals 220.

Said petition will be heard by the County Judge on the 10th day of July, 1967, at 9:00 o'clock, A.M., at the Courthouse of said County in the City of Galveston, Texas. Any citizen shall be permitted to contest the facts stated in said petition and applicant's right to secure a per mit upon giving secur ity for all costs which will be incurred in such suit, should the same be decided in favor of the applicant.

Humphrey Jr. Deputy, generally refrain from telling dirty stories simply because they do not have the psychological need for them that men have.” Sometimes, though, you hear women laughing more uproariously at off-color stories than men. That's because, says Dr. Hartogs, it creates more emotional distress and discomfort for province,” says Dr. Hartogs. “I believe that women women and they laugh loudly and nervously. For children the obscene word can be an effective means of controlling their parents. It’s important, therefore, that a woman isn’t upset when her child comes home and uses four-letter words which he often doesn’t understand. “The well-informed mother doesn’t react,” advises the psychiatrist. “She says calmly that those words belong in the street and not in the home, but that she is not shocked at all. If she becomes excited, the child says to himself, ‘Ah, now I have something to torture mother with,’ and he lets her have it often. For children have a tremendous instinct of what to use in the power struggle. Children at an early age notice that their words have magical value.” Holland-born Dr. Hartogs, who came to the United States in 1940, is not only in private practice but serves also as chief psychiatrist of New York City Youth House of Juvenile Delinquents. He also has given group therapy at Sing Sing Prison. All of this has contributed to a formidable four-letter vocabulary for the doctor. “Instead of being prudish and hurt about obscene language,” he says, “We should be fascinated by it, and try to see what motives are behind it. “As in the street, I am always amazed what power people have over others when they use four letter words, and I have tried to study it. 220.
