Editor"s Note: This is the first of a se-
for the Prom girl, one of whom will be
presented at. trie junior-senior -rom.
When the German star, Marlene
Dietrich, arrived in America, crit
ics cried, " glamorous, exotic, in
tellectual, and exciting," m one
breath. Frequently one sees pic
tures of such a woman in art gal
leries, or on magazine covers but
seldom do we find the living ex
ample of this rare combination.
The Husker campus has the un
usual. She's charming. She's intel
ligent. She's exotic. She's one of
the best dressed women on the
Nebraska campus. She's Jane
Youngson, one of the candidates
for Prom girl.
Last summer Jane went to Hol
lywood, the port of beautiful wom
enwhere fascinating, shallow
blondes and unattractive, learned
blondes come and go. It certainly
isn't unusual when an ordinary
woman visits Hollywood but when
one so entirely different as Jane
passes through she doesn't have to
view the homes of stars from the
top of sight seeing buses or read
in the current movie magazines at
just what kind of parties the ac
tors and actresses are entertained.
She was entertained at parties
given by Wallace Beery and other
stars of equal universal impor
tance. Jane Plans Career.
Jane is very interested in the
business world and intends to be
a business woman in some large
concern some day. Although she
isn't a musician she is seriously
