Advice To The Lovelorn
Or, You Can Tell Us
All you girls who are wondering just why it is you are sitting home on Saturday evening instead of being escorted by a handsome male to that formal party you have been looking forward to all year, take note.
According to applications received by the Independent Women's association dating bureau at Pennsylvania State college, we find out that of 79 applicants, 21 rated conversational ability as essential. Therefore, maybe you should take a course in public speaking or start memorizing words in the dictionary to increase your vocabulary.
Of these men, 14 asked for a talkative date and 13 wanted one that was not too quiet. Definite, aren't they? Well, just close your eyes and point to one or the other. One vote's disagreement shouldn't be the difference between life and death.
Good dancers and brunette dates were demanded by 17 of these particular males, so, girls start practicing your arabesque and waltz clog. Perhaps Arthur Murray would be an asset in this case; ten easy lessons might do the trick. And if you are a blond or red-head, dye your hair. Oh, you don't like the idea? Maybe not, but figures aren't supposed to lie, you know.
