Of course the less fortunate will keep their noses to the grindstone; into this category fall the ambi tious as well as the very much less ambitious whose grades were some thing less than Phi Beta Kappa level.

Several have made application to stock theaters, and one has already been accepted by the famous Barter Theater in Abingdon, Virginia.

Three girls will spend their vacation a's waitresses in a hotel in the Great Smokies. They call this work!
