what he was suited for is today one of the
country's outstanding scholars, Professor
Edison R. Sunderland, Director of Legal Re-
search of the University of Michigan. After
he had completed four years of college. he
went back for two more, devoted to physics
and mathematics. These studies seemed to
lose their appeal for him, so he studied
philosophy for year before he decided that
he wasn't suited for that either. You could
hardly wonder that he got discouraged. for he
was supporting himself during these years -
he wasn't pampered by an indulgent father.
He finally decided that law was his dish and
went back for three years more - this time
sure that he was on the right track And he
was.

same as they always were - and talented

she was afraid to face an audience, and long
hours seated on stool were hardly helpful
in regaining her health. Partly to get her
thoughts off her vanished concert career she
turned to singing and only after struggle
overcame her fear of people Few singers have

Not long ago Miss Vyvyan Donner was
following hum-drum career as commercial
artist. In lucky moment she conceived the
idea that women's styles would interest news
reel audiences. The film officials were willing
to be shown - but not at their expense. So
Miss Donner called on her friends for help.
She wrote the script. They designed the sets,
borrowed or helped make the styles. They
shot the sequences with home movie camera
in friends studio that was next door to
theater. The necessary juice was borrowed"
from the theater by an ingenious electrician -

officials with the film and got herself fine

Museum of Natural History was scrubbing
floors - it was the only job available. But
few people know of his first assignment. After
months of diligent scrubbing, he was called
into the directors office and told that he was
to go on scientific expedition. Andrews
glowed with excitement here was his big
chance. Then he learned what the expedition
was. He was to 60 to Long Island beach and
get a large whale which smelled to high

Many of our most outstanding figures have
gained success in careers to which. at the
outset. they seemed the least fitted. Josef
Hoffman,. concert pianist was told as youth
that no one with his small hands could hope
to become really competent on the keyboard
Bobby Jones was started playing golf because
he was frail child who needed building up
As many people know, Glenn Cunningham
started running to strengthen his legs after
they had been badly burned. Gene Tunney
was not what the sports writer's love to call
natural" fighter: just lanky. hard as nails
chap who built himself into made" fighter
who could cut the natural fighters to ribbons
and did.
A year ago small. ordinary looking man
in his thirties named Dave Elman found him
self broke. out of job, in debt and trying
to pull himself together after the sudden death
of son. One day he picked up book about
hobbies. in which the author talked about
stamp collecting, woodworking and birds
eggs. Elman threw the book on the floor in
disgust; it seemed silly to him that hobbies like
these could keep peoples minds off their real
troubles. There were much more dramatic
and interesting hobbies Why, he kner per-
SOndiiy i. . and he found himself with basic
idea for what was to become a successful
radio program - dramatizing other peoples
hobbies
E. W. Scripps, founder of the newspaper
chain, never believed in keeping his ablest
men too long at any one job He gave them
lots of rope. confident that eventually they
would hit their stride. And while his usual
policy was to promote men up through the
ranks of their own departments, he never
hesitated to make unusual decisions Once he
took one of his editors and made him treasurer
of the entire group of papers. On another
occasion he was faced with the problem of
hiring new editor. He casually made
decision that would turn most publishers pale
He picked the foreman of the composing
room. The man was dumbfounded when
Scripps brOaChed the idea to him. He had
never written one news story But he agreed
to try the job. He proved to be intelligent,
got along we'll with his men, and understood
the problems OF the paper as whole. The
plan worked perfectly. He was one of Scripps
most successful editors for thirty years

HE most successful director in Hollywood
today is admitted on all sides to be
% Frank Capra.
Critics say it is because he can draw out
of his actors certain human qualities that
other directors have missed. Actors like to
work with Capra: he gets along we'll with
people. But Capra didn't learn what went on
inside people in the ar-strewn studios of
Hollywood. He learned these things during
the dozen years he knocked around trying to
find out what he was fitted to do-as a
''shave-tail' in the army, member of a
night-club band, professional poker player.
a tutor, a house toulouse canvasser, and
mining stock salesman.
If the experience of successful men teaches
anything, it is that the top men have usually
had their rough edges knocked off in other
1t also has taken many of them long
time to find out what they are best fitted for
An unusually intelligent or specially gifted
person can usually do several things we'll -
he wouldn't be outstanding if he couldn't.
Some of our most successful men have
knocked around for years before their par
ticular talents found the best market. and this
experience has rarely been bad investment
Don't resign yourself to dull job because
your first two or three efforts lead you
nowhere. Of course, job-hunting and job
building aren't easy now; we'll admit that.
But they have never been easy, and cold
statistics show that there are more oppor-
t,,ri fr,rf ho of c,o1f fo1o thar
ever before. There are twenty-five new and
lusty industries that didn't exist when father
started out, not to mention the expansions in
scientific research, industrial arts, teaching,
medicine, social work. and the like. Good jobs
are alcays hard to get it takes time and
thought and work to find them 1t always has.
Young people are inclined, quite under
standably, to get discouraged too quickly
when they don't hit their stride right away
Walter Slezak musical comedy star had
an operate father who felt that one actor
in the family was enough. So Walter earnestly
studied biology for two years. trying to be-
come doctor. His teachers threw him out as
failure, so he tried selling insurance. and
failed at that He was in banking and about
to fail at that when he got a small acting part.
and finally ksew that acting was his meat.
Lauritz Melchior, Metropolitan Opera
