Society at Standstill With Approach of Finals
ANNE NETTELS
All roads lead to the library to paraphrase an old saving $ ^{g} $
From all sides of Mt. Oread come students, books under arms, headed for the final week Mecca.
--for your wardrobe blues are these two blouses which are designed to change the appearance of your old suit, and compliment your new one.
Librarians are getting occupational diseases from yanking books off shelves to meet the growing demand for last minute learning.
Fraternities and sororities are clamping down on study rules, and the general atmosphere to be felt is one of tension and mild hysteria as finals approach.
Society is at a standstill, and any social activity promises to come after, not during, the tests.
We'll see you in the library!

Sink Changes Career Of Starlet Hayward
Hollywood, Jan. 21—(UP)But for the fact that Susan Hay ward was assigned a seat next to the sink where she was studying art at the Girls Commercial High School in Brooklyn, her story might have ended where it be gan. in Brooklyn.
Susan is the girl who, after three pictures, has walked off with the choice role of Hester in the Columbia production of "Legacy," film version of the Charles Bonner novel.
That day in Brooklyn, however, Susan was busy roughing-out a design for a contest. A girl, washing her hands at the sink, flicked a little water on Susan's drawing. Susan liked the resulting design. She embellished the water marks and won the contest and a $75 prize. That was a quirk that led to her obtaining a job as a textile designed.
It happened that Miss Hayward's place of employment was in the theatrical district. Looking out of the window, she frequently saw on a roof below a group of chorines at their practice. Susan, after looking down enough, decided dancing must be more fun than textile designing and wanted to be a dancer.
But crashing the stage was not so simple, she found, producers not caring to hire girls with no experience or training. So she enrolled in a scool of drama and after six months was placed with a Long Island stock company. But the stock company failed and Susan, out of funds, became a model.
One of her first assignments was to pose for illustrations for a magazine article. It happened that David O. Selznick, producer, and George Cukor, director of "Gone With the Wind," were at that time seeking a Scarlett O'Hara and saw Miss Hayward in the magazine illustration.
So Susan was brought to Hollywood for a test, but executives of the studio decided she was a shade too immature for the role. The tests, however, landed her a stock contract at another studio and Susan was in pictures.
When Robert C. Sherwood was looking for a girl to fill the Hester role, which resembles that of Scarlet, he thought of Susan and a test proved she was the right person for the part in "Legacy."
It's a rather roundabout path, but Susan still thinks that seat next to the sink in Commercial high school was a lucky one for her.
