Political New Deal for Youth? i Jf » ■ HM Kh K WHI fe IB i y T t .J lii fc &. BtfSiß z IL <• >' i • Z/ t. ’I Kush Holt | | Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr.

By MAURICE MERRYFIELD International Illustrated News Writer NEW YORK—Aside from those members of the "brain trust" associated with the New Deal, there is a definite trend toward enlisting younger men in the administrative and legislative branches of the government, both state and national. It appears that the young graduate of college and university in the United States can look forward to a political future which holds much greater possibilities than ever before. In the past it has been the professions and big business which has attracted the ambitious gradI uate. Corporations have made a practice for years of contacting personnel directors of the various institutions of higher learning and signing up their more promising young men. Many of the other outstanding student leaders and scholars gravitated toward medi- > cine or law, but few gave serious j thought to a. political career because of the difficulties which have barred this course in the past. Trained Men in Demand Recent expansion and extension of governmental services into social and economic fields, however, , has made it necessary that new j recruits be taken on. The specialized nature of many of the new governmental functions has required the services of men with background and a sound general education. As a result, more and more men are leaving the campus each year to enter government service. An optimistic forecast as to the

Pickford and Rogers- Neither Miss I Pickford nor Rogers made an immediate statement, but a studio ■ announcement said: "Mary Pickford announced that it was true that Mrs. B. -H. Rogers, mother of Buddy Rogers, is flying to Hollywood tomorrow to make an , official announcement next Friday 1 to Miss Pickford of her son. “Tile announcement will be made at a small reception to bo held at Beverly Wilshire hotel to be planned upon the arrival of Mrs. Rogers. "No date. ink, been set for the wedding which will Im- held sotm - time in the spring.” Tie- wedding probably will be in Hollywood. Rogens is scheduled to return to England this winter and make a picture for British International Studios. He probably will not conclude his work there until Feb-l ruary. |] While Rogers divides his time be-| t ween the movies and his orchestra, Mii;s Pickford, 12, has abandoned screen work and recently lias devoted all her time to production activities at United Artists studios. — o—•— —■ Frank Hope Named Parole Supervisor Indianapolis, Nov.

future of the college and university man in government service is sounded by Professor De Wilt Clinton Poole, director of the School of Public and International Affairset Princeton university. "At no time in our recent history has the problem of personnel in government been under such serious ami enlightened consideration as at the present,” Professor Poole states. "The outlook is encouraging both tor the increasing numbers of young people who are being attracted to government service as a career and likewise for the cause of better government itself.*’ Youth “Crashes'’ Senate An indication of this trend is i shown by recent activities of the civil service commission which held examinations in 1931 for persons with an A. B. degree or high- ’ er, establishing an eligible list of i 1,200 for federal positions. AnI other examination was held last summer in which 26,000 applicants took the test. Another hopeful sign for the young graduate is the fact that examinations for the foreign consular and diplomatic service have been resumed after a lapse of four j years. Nor is age now considered such a handicap to the young aspirant for elective office. Notable in this respect was the recent victory in Massachusetts of Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., 34, who takes his place in the United States senate along with Rush Holt of West Virginia, who is only 31. as the "babies" of that august body.

"Sweepstakes on Love" 9 by May Christie

SYNOPSIS The socially elite Diana Darlington and Regina Hyde are rivals for the love of Roger Dexter, eligible, young bachelor. Although Diana enjoys a much higher social position than Regina, the latter's wealth seems to more than balance the scales. Diana wants to work but her mother. Genevieve, will not hear of it. Mrs. Darlington secretly makes a living by sending her friends to different modistes, beauty salons, etc. Her one hope is for Diana to marry wealth as soon as possible. So. she arranges for her daughter’s debut in a suite at the Parkview Hotel furnished “free" by the management for the publicity to be gained via the "best people” who would attend the party. Even the champagne is gratis, donated by the very "common” Alfred Flegenschultz, former bootlegger but now a respectable liquor merchant. In return, Genevieve is forced to invite the social climbing Flegenschultz family. Roger showers Diana with attention and everything goes along smoothly until the champagne runs out and the spiteful Regina suggests that the party go to her house for further libations. Roger was among the last to leave. He did not accept Regina's invitation, however, as Diana feared, but, indignant with his friends for clearing out so summarily, went to the Harvard Club instead. Later on, Regina gives a play for charity. She, of course, has the leading role. Diana is the hit of the show with her beautiful singing and dancing. The envious Regina puts soap flakes on the stage staircase causing Diana to fall. Roger is all concern for Diana and suspects Regina. Recuperating at home, Diana receives a movie offer. Next comes Regina’s debut. It was to be more lavish than anything Society had ever before witnessed. Benjamin Hyde had spent a fortune alone on favors for each guest. Despite this, criticism ran hign and there were many who said, "She’ll never make the grade. Few of the best people have accepted." Although lame from her accident, Diana attends, accompanied by Roger. Her happiness knows no bounds when he tells her of his love. Regina contrives to get Roger away from Diana by "spiking” his champagne with brandy. CHAPTER XI “Brandy’s great, after champagne. This is Napoleon brandy, Roger. Let me put a little m your glass. Come, now.” He felt so marvelous, so at peace with all the world, that it would be impossible to refuse her. He sipped the brandy slowly, lingering over its fine bouquet. As though far away, he heard a voice that must have been his own tell Regina she was beautiful—a swell girl—a peach of a fine girlone of his very best friends—- " Only a friend?” she whispered, leaning over the small table towards him so that her head almost touched his. He looked into her amber eyes. They were like pools of sunlit wat r with dark ferns growing round them. No!—they were tiger’s eyes, hypnotic. He heard himself telling her she had tiger’s eyes and heard her protesting. . . - Diana came by at that moment, but he had his back to her. He said thickly, but audibly, so that Diana overheard as she passed by: “They’re devilish eyes, Regina. A fellow could drown himself in > CII1 —he hiccuped—"like—like in the pool of the Lo-Lo-Lorelei.” It was high noon next day when Diana awoke. Bella was beside her with a breakfast tray. Genevieve was behind Bella. , , The moment they were alone, Genevieve began her questioning. How was it that Roger had not brought her home? Genevieve had heard a taxi stopping at the front door at half-past two, and had got out of bed and seen Donny help Diana out of the cab, and the two of them come inside. What had happened to Roger. Genevieve had meant to keep awake till Donny left, but hed ciozed as she waited, and when she did rouse herself, which was in a matter of a few minutes, Diana was in her own room, asleep. Diana had not been asleep, bhe had only pretended. She had cried herself to sleep, disappointed to the core over the ending of an evening that had begun so perfectly. > But there were no traces of tears cm Diana’s small face as she tackled her grape-fruit and coffee. “You may as well Lave it, Genevieve, since you insist. Roger got tight—quite noticeably tight—so I camo home with Donny.” “And—and he said nothing—? A flush crept to the heart-shaped face that was so fresh and pretty in the light of morning. “Ror’er told me that he loved me —that I was the only girl he wanted to be with—at the beginning of the evening.” ' Genevieve s eyes brightened. This w«S excellent hearing. “Ara you going to see him today V

“I promised to nine with him at his apartment this evening.” “No. He tan come here. Don't cheapen yourself, darling.” But as the hours wore on, there was no telephone call from Roger. Three. Four Five. Six o’clock. Ought she to call him up? Was he ill? Had anything happened towards the conclusion of the party? At a quarter of seven, the telephone rang. “Miss Darlington? This is Perkins speaking.” (Perkins was Roger’s English valet.) “Mr. Dexter’s been feeling very poorly all day, and some friends of his just came here and drove him off into the country for a bit of a rest, Miss." Roger had gone eff for a week’s duck shooting in South Carolina

without so much as a farewell word to Diana. As a matter of fact, he was not deliberately escaping her. He was fleeing from Regina, from the possible tangle he had got into. The vague, disturbing suspicion that he had somehow committed himself with Regina at her party woke him—with its concomitant, a blinding headache. He had been blind in another sense last night... and blinder still at six o'clock this morning when he had kissed Regina good-night and good-morning at the door of her car. "Perkins, I've got the worst hangover of my life,” he groaned to his valet around three o’clock that afternoon when he awoke in his apart ment. He was on the divan in tho living room, minus his coat and collar, with throbbing temples and parched mouth. "I have mixed a horse's neck for you, sir,” said the invaluable Perkins, setting down a tray with an array of bottles on it beside the couch. Gently, he raised his master’s head, propping a big pillow under it. "I can't touch the beastly stuff. I feel terrible, Perkins!" “Very good, sir. But I should advise the horse's neck.” He lifted a glass from the tray containing two lingers of straight gin, the juice of two limes, and a dash of sugar, and deftly added soda water, flinging a teaspoonful of bromo-seltzer into it. “Drink this down, sir.” Roger did so, then fell back with a groan. Perkins soft-footed it from the room, to return with an ice-bag which he wound round his master's forehead. "Another for the back of the neck, sir. It will pass, sir. You will feel better.” “Perkins, I swear I will go on the wagon for a month. What an awful fool I’ve been!” “A week's abstinence would be excellent for you. sir,” said Perkins in his precise English accent, setting the second ice-pack neatly and accurately at the throbbing base of his skull. “It's these infernal parties, Perkins—” “I suggest a week in the country, sir. North or South Carolina, sir, would be sufficiently removed from your—cr —er—friends.” “Too many friends, drat ’em!” groaned Roger, wondering wrhat on earth he had said to Regina, and if she would try and hold him to it. Regina could be infernally obstinate, and he had more than a suspicion that if she could not achieve her object by fair means, then she would not stick at foul. Foul? Fowl? Duck shooting? There was tlio solution! Perkins was a bachelor. At curh 1 rare times as Perkins unbent from

“But I tell you I've an appointment for dinner with Miss Darlington.” "A sweet young lady, sir. I have nothing against her, sir. But one at a time, sir. That is an infallible motto.” Perkins renewed the ice-packs, answered a further telephone call, and came back into the living room w-ith a glass of soda-water and a couple of sedative tablets. “As a follow-up, these are excellent. sir. Miss Hyde was again on the line.” "What did you tell her, Perkins?” asked Roger irritably. Confound her persistence! “That you were indisposed, sir. She suggested coming around immediately. I should recommend flight, sir. In fact, I have already packed a bag for you.” “Bright lad!” It seemed a sensible solution. But what of Diana? Perkins took the glass of sodawater from his hand, and settled him comfortably on the pillow. “1 took the liberty, sir, an hour ago, of telephoning Mr. Winston at the Harvard Club. I told him it would suit your plans if he and Mr. Rutherford would call for you here in a taxi-cab at five o'clock, to make the South Carttdina train at Pennsylvania station. Mr. Winston jumped at the suggestion.” "The dickens he did!” These were young men who en joved nothing better than to hunt the elusive duck through the Southern swamps, and who usually companioned Roger on his hunting trips. “Hadn’t you better telephone Hyde and Miss Darlington that I am leaving, Perkins?” “Pardon me, sir, but that would be a tactical mistake. They might. . both turn up at the train. It might be awkward, sir.” “Then order a dozen roses for both of ’em. White for Miss Darlington. Red for Miss Hyde.” Roger struggled into a sitting posture. “Here, bring me a pen and a carffi I’ll scribble a note." “Oh. !!a> s ; r . ( s i la n enclose your printed card. That will suffice. I shall communicate with each after you have left the apartment, sir- I shall wait until sufficient time has elapsed for the flowers to a- rive.” , Perkins’ correct, nay. prim phra- , seology usually amused Roger i But not today.
