I've been hearing about the filthy rock and roll lyrics for a long time and decided to tune in and listen. Twenty-three years of this column have made me virtually shock-proof, but some of the lyrics were incredibly crude and offensive. I support your suggestion that parents tune in and listen to what their children are hearing hour after hour.

If they don't approve, they should write to the local station and complain. Dear Ann: I was furious at the reader who said you should be horsewhipped for telling a 17-year-old girl to have plastic surgery on her nose. She said it was ruining her life and wanted your opinion. You OK'd "anything that might improve your looks." For years I wore glasses with lenses that looked like Coke bottles. I was nearly blind without them.

They were heavy. They pinched. They slid down on my nose. I had no peripheral vision. My eyesight was getting progressively worse.

My doctor recommended contact lenses. No more Coke bottles. No more pinching. No more sliding. No more blind spots where the glasses weren't Most important of all, my vision stabilized.

1 Contacts aren't for everyone, but they surely helped me. That turkey deserves a boot in the snoot for spouting off. If he spent his life trying to see out of my eyes, he'd be grateful the good Lord gave humans the intelligence to help themselves. 20-20 Praise To Heaven. Dear 20-20: I believe my advice to the 17-year-old girl was good, and I stand by it.

Glad your contacts have made such a difference in your life. Thanks for sharing. recording IS Before tee It Second name 17 Caustic It Not manifest 20 Drop the bait 21 Lack 22 Horror-film name 23 Ire neighbor 16 Fulda tributary 19 Benchley's "The 22 Bring to light 23 Come about 24 Baptizing 25 Collision 29 "Gigi" filmstar 30 French river 34 African nation 38 "Ain't 1955 song 37 Legume Pear Ann: I attended a conference recently and had my eyes opened. The subject under discussion was rock and roll music. Most parents have no idea what rock music is all about because they pay no attention to it.

If they listened to the lyrics they'd be shocked. For example, "Get Down and Make Love" tells a story of homosexual love. Another, "Cold Ethyl" by Alice Cooper, is an incredibly vulgar song celebrating sexual perversion. "Wild Love" by Frank Zappa is a thoroughly offensive number. The words to "Some Girls" (Rolling Stones) could not be printed in a family newspaper.

Acceptance of marital infidelity is the theme of many rock songs. "Part Time Love," written by Elton John and Gary Osborne, has Elton John singing: "You've been seen running around. Don't tell me what to do when you've been doing it, too. Everybody's got a part time love." (Copyright 1979 by Big Pig Music, Ltd.) Is it any wonder there is so much teen-age sex, promiscuity, pregnancy outside of wedlock and couples living 25 Swiss city 26 Gangplank's relative together without marriage? When young people hear this trash for hours on end, they accept it as the ordinary, everyday way of life. I urge every parent to turn on the radio and pay close attention to the words of the songs.

The next step is write to the local radio station and tell the manager exactly what you think of the programming. If no one complains, the stations have every right to assume it's perfectly OK, and there will be no end to it. Thanks for letting me have my say. Want A Better Environment For Youth.
