...recent study partially funded by the Ford Foundation revealed that many young fathers are not only willing but eager to help their partner and offspring. The project, coordinated by New York City's Bank Street College of Education, offered vocational services, counseling, and prenatal and parenting classes to nearly 400 teenage fathers and prospective fathers in eight U.S. cities. At the end of the two-year program, 82% reported having daily contact with their children; 74% said they contributed to the child's financial support. Almost 90% maintained a relationship with the mother, whom they had known for an average...

The contest, once known less grandiosely as "Face of the Eighties," is conducted annually by the Eileen Ford modeling agency, which will now award Monica a three-year $250,000 contract, a $10,000 diamond pendant and a $6,500 fox fur.
