problems, according to Dean F. E.

Brown hair, blue eyes, varied

By Helen Keltey.
What makes a bachelor eligible ?
Statistics show that he should
have brown hair, blue eyes, and
be under six feet. He may or may
not use a line but if he does he
should not use the same one ah
the time.
Out of 11 candidates for eligible
bachelors to be presented at the
Mortar Board party, nine have
brown hair, seven have blue ey3,
four are over six feet, and half
have gone steady once. Says Dick
GeUatly: "Once, never again."
Tf von want to know their se
cret of success you cannot find it
in their lines. Most of them use
one but will not tell what It is; it
oeema to be a trade secret. "In
atrairrhr lave there Is no ap
proach," quote Jack Clark. Bill
Fox uses a "varied approach."
