cept for bit more precision on his

might have been any other presiding
official at any convention.
Prof. Hefner was in a dilema, but
/ it did not bother him. One of his
speakers was to have been Clarence
DerWent, president of Actors Equity.
1t turned out Derwent could not
come. He opened, in new Broad
way hit the night before, The Mad
Woman Of Chaillot,' and an actor
with a hit can't leave it long enough
to make speech. Prof. Hefner had
another man ready, just for such an
emergency.
His other speaker, not the emery
ency man but Gilbert Miller. the
Broadway producer, was .lot absent,
just late. Prof. Hefner thought he
would be along in time, and handled
the situation with enough poise to
suggest that every one would have
a good time whatever happened
Mr.. Miller arrived just as the emery
ency man, Garrett Leverton, finished
speaking.
Neither had anything particularly
startling to say, as it turned out, but
short of revolutionaries proclaiming
the seizures of States, there is not
much that is startling to say these
days.
Leverton, who used to be head of
Northwestern University's drama
department, but is now in the pub
fishing business, said in effect that
the university drama people could
not expect much from Broadway.
1T is content" he said, TO deal
with two per cent of the total
American audience for theatre, and
the best thing it does for you is to
leave you the other SO per cent"
With 80 per cent of Actors Equity
members unemployed, and an even
larger number of playwrights, de-
signers, and others out of work, he
suggested that the university thea
ter could find small hope for grad
yates in the existing set-up. A new
set-up elsewhere was highly pos
sible. with SO per cent of the total
audience waiting.
Producer Miller, straight from
Broadway, had little constructive to
offer, but no one could have ad-
mitted it more frankly. He came,

His major suggestion was that
since his Broadway would not, or
could not do much about theater
outside of New York, that the
university groups take over.

rather Of that one which fourishes

Scrub Your Way to Beauty;
Don't Pangber Your Skin
By ELeni

Perfectly miserable" are num-
|ber Of gals when confronted with
the fact that they have acne. pim-
pies or blackheads. According to
Rose Laird who has devoted many
years to the skin problems OF young
people-acne, pimples and black
heads are not a necessary evil for
teen ayers.
She feels that thought should be
given to the simple question, What
causes these conditions? Then
steps should be taken to combat
them.
A number Of reasons may account
for the skin problems OF adolescence
Sometimes 1t is oyereating, some
times improper cleansing, some
times too many sweets. Whatever
the reasons Miss Laird has also
found that young people are not
trained In a careful, complete
cleansing method to help them de-
feat their problems.
Her program for skin that Is
soft, smooth and glowing is to start
on with thorough cleansing. Be-
fore launching on any program,
Miss Laird offers an important
What -Not-to-Do." Never, never,
squeeze out wlaiteheads, blackheads
or pimples. Squeezing removes only
the top and you bruise skin tissues
and may infect adjoining skin cells.
Mistreatment may also leave un-
slightly scars.
The first ,step in the program is
to clean the skin through scrubbing,
washing and rinsing. THIS is
DONE EVERY NIGHT. Warm
water and facial soap are recon-
mended, to be applied with COM
plexion brush or a face cloth. Do
q thorough job of cleansing and
stimulating. Rinse repeatedly and
finish with dash of cold water.
Next apply thin layer of over
night ointment. Follow with liquid
facial soap just as it comes from
the bottle Dab it on blemishes
and allow it to remain on all night.

Your parents deserve respect.
They've been through a lot of the

Your theory about them is simple.
They're out to balk you at every

and your dates, tie you down to your

and generally make your life mis-
