Six Fellowships Offered Grads
Graduating students or students who will have a degree in liberal arts, law, or architectural, civil, or sanitary engineering by next fall may apply for a graduate fellowship in city management, Dr. E. O. Stene, secretary of the awarding committee, said today.
Deadline for submitting applications is March 10.
Six persons are to be chosen for the two-year courses starting next September. The first year's study will be done in residence at the University. The second year will be an internship in the office of a city manager in this area.
The students will receive $1,000 during the nine-month internship. Those completing the program will be awarded the master of public administration degree.
In addition to the six persons chosen, other applicants may be admitted to the program, Dr. Stene said. However, they would not be guaranteed compensation during the internship, he added.
A grant of $50,000 by the Carnegie corporation of New York provides for the city management training for six graduate students each year for five years.

Veteran Of 50 Years At Met Says Opera Now For People
New York—(UP)—Opera isn't what it used to be
Take it from a man who was a disc jockey for Enrico Caruso; played baseball under Otto H. Kahn; entertained Toscanini with "bughouse puzzles" and taught Madame Schumann-Heink's husband to speak English during 50 years in the Metropolitan Opera house.
Aime Gerber still is in harness' after half a century, presiding benignly over the 40th street portals of the house. He says opera is going to the kids and that anyone with $7.50 can sit in the Diamond Horseshoe.
"I have seen many, many changes in my time at the Met." Gerber said. "The most important, I thought, occurred during the past 10 years when the opera became the 'people's opera', no longer dominated by high society."
There was a time, he explained, when the seats of the house were owned by the owners of the building and could not be used by anyone else.
Gerber said the youthful patronage began about three years ago and is increasing every year.
The young set, their interest stimulated by free lectures and performances, have taken to opera with more enthusiasm than many of their elders." Gerber said.
And many of the youngsters, he added, know more about "the story of the opera" than their parents.
Gerber said the era of style-setting by opera patrons also has passed.
"Tew who attend today, with the exception of opening night audiences, dress formally," he said. "In the old days the fashion experts would jam the galleries to see the latest style creations worn by the regular patrons. The opera was the accepted place to introduce new styles and fashions."
Even the temperamental stars are gone, Gerber said. No more tantrums in the midst of an aria. No

How <u>rhythmic</u> can a rhythm song be?
You'll know when you hear Blue Barron's new waxing for MGM Records- "Powder Your Face With Sunshine"
The Barron has a foot-tapping arrangement here—a combo of Dixie, shuffle and 2-4 time. It's sure-fire styling for a danceable hit tune. And on the flip, Blue puts "Cruising Down the River" into fast waltz time. Blue Barron likes to mix his rhythms—but in smoking, he sticks to one brand -- Camel. Here at the right, Blue is telling his vocalist, Betty Clarke, about Camels.
How MILD can a cigarette be?
Make the CAMEL 30-DAY TEST... you'll know!
and you'll know!
Yes, make the 30-day Camel Mildness Test. See for yourself how mild Camels are. In a recent test of hundreds of people who smoked only Camels for 30 days, noted throat specialists, after making weekly examinations, reported

Smoke Camels and test them in your own "T-Zone." T for taste, T for throat.
