Love Being Nurse
"But instead of playing the
young intern, he will play the
role of Dr. Gillespie the part
Lionel Barrymore once had,"
Maggie explained happily.
"Of course, he will be much
younger than Mr. Barrymore
was. -
"Now they're looking for a
young man, not too much old

intern. He's the one who will

Mr. Ayres will be sort of
fatherly."
Maggie perched on the cor
ner of a studio office desk,
swinging her shapely legs dis
concertingly. "I spent three years in New,
York's Bellevue Hospital,"
she said. "I . loved being a
nurse, but some of the doctors
there advised me to give it
up. They thought I couldn't
disassociate myself from the
patieri'ts.
Patienls Get Worse
"They were right. Whenev
er one of my patients took a
turn for the worse it would
shake me up terribly. I just
couldn't become calloused
enough to harden myself to
the suffering of other people.
"So I quit to became a
model. And the first modeling
job I found was posing in a

came out here, the studio gave

"It looks as if I'll never be
free of a nurse's uniform."
Maggie smiled brightly and
added that her role in the
Kildare series will follow
closely her own problems as
a nurse not being able to ad
just to the unemotional as
pects of nursing.
"I still want to be a movie
star," she concluded, "but
they aren't likely to cast me
opposite Marlon Brando until
I'm better known. And what
better way is there to become
known than in a TV series?
"So it's back to the nurses
uniform for me. At least I'll

Chatter
New York - (UPD - The gen
eral public is in the market
with a fervor and abandon un
matched since the pre-crash
days of 1929, says Business
Reports Inc.
"Let us keep in mind," the
firm tells its readers, "that
current stock prices are high
- high by historical standards,
by 'times-earnings' ratios, by
dividend yields."
That's why it favors a high
degree of selectivity, with
most of its choices admittedly
on the conservative "fuddy
duddy" side, the firm adds.
However, if an investor feels
he's in a position to speculate
in any of the special situa
tions, he'd better watch them
very closely from now on, the
letter cautions.
Because the steel strike has
been settled and the prospect
of a railroad strike diminish
ed, railroad volume should im
prove this year, says Good
body & Co. However, because
of increased costs, something
less than full benefits from
the expected resurgence' of
revenues will be realized, it
adds.
Bache & Co. notes that
Owens-Illinois Glass remains
just below its 1959-1960 high
and that the chart pattern of
this issue continues to reflect
strength.
Speckled trout are reported
increasing in many of the
