War Togs for a Photographer
Going to war isn't simple, even for an ace photographer like Bert Brandt, pictured here. Brandt, '39 K.U., graduate, who returned to the campus this week to talk to the University Press club, was attired in some 78 pounds of equipment—soldierly and photographically—before he took off for the invasion of the Normandy beachhead during 1944.

Most women, and most men, live in a dream world of their own, as far as love is concerned. Miss Var-
"Women see their dream men in the motion picture lovers." she said. "We used to call them matinee idols, like Rudolph Valentino. He conveyed that spark of charm with the proper ingredients of attentiveness that won the only worthwhile things in life—love and devotion."
Miss Varden, who established herself on the London stage as one of England's greatest comediennes, came to America in 1940 and expects her final citizenship papers soon.
