Last year young Rogers re ceived an achievement scholar ship from the Westinghouse cor poration which provided summer employment at the firm's plant in the east, specialized training and an allotment for college his senior year. Young Rogers was one of 18 honor students out of the 1100 Graduates from Oregon State college this spring who were in vited by President and Mrs. A. L.

Sidelights Cunard line captains are in structed to go dead slow in a thick fog and completely dis regard schedules under such conditions.. . .In New York city there is an employment agency devoted exclusively to securing positions for bookkeepers. In Manhattan the salaries of book keepers are from $75 to $100 a week. Seems to me a good book keeper should command a better wage than that. Horses And Women Are blondes more expensive to support than brunettes? The answer to that is something every young man should know. I have been informed by an authority on the subject of horses and women that natural blondes usually cost no more to keep than brunettes. However, blondes with bleached or dyed hair are somewhat more ex pensive. As for example, a per manent wave for a natural blonde or brunette is priced in some beauty shops at $27. For a bleached or dyed blonde it is S32. Also what is technically called "a. touch and set" is $10.50 for natural blondes and bru nettes. For bleached blondes it is $18.50 Our horses and women experts have been instructed to assemble more information on the comparative cost of sup porting blondes and brunettes for the benefit of our bachelor subcribers.

What follows is the choice of an alleged expert on the subject: "Naughty Mari etta," " Annie Get Your Gun," "Show Boat." "Street Scene," "Girl Crazy," 'Kiss Me Kate," "Pal Joe," "Guys And Dolls," "Oklahoma" and "My Fair Lady. The old boy ignores 'South Pacific." And how about the show titled "Sally?" Also, if you ask me, "The King And I" is about five times as good a musical show as "Street Scene" was. And how can you leave out "Madame Sherry?" World s Best That the liner The United States is the fastest and finest ship of its kind is understand a b 1 e. American shipbuilders have been the world's best for over 150 years.

Be sides Scorpio women are great ly envied by others of their sex. Scorpio women are magnetic and have great male attraction. So cau they help it if surround ed at parties by male admirers? That makes other women widly jealous. Especially the Libras, who are excessively flirtatious and fancy themselves as man charmers." 1 AA.
