By giving these scholar ships it allows the countries to keep the money they would send to the United States within the boun daries of their cquntry, Bowles said. i ' The scholarship winnefs are paid in the money oT the country that they are studying in. This prevents the United States from having to handle all of the foreign money. “Almost a straight “A” tran script is necessary to get to first base”, Bowles said to answer a‘ question of what grades are ne cessary. The program is open to graduate students and Seniors only. The sen iors who apply should be graduat ing in June, and would be abroad as graduate students, Botvles add ed. 1 The money that will be granted to the students is fitted on a slid; ing scale. It will amount to about $1,220 in France to $3,000 in some other countries. In England last year is was $2,000, Bowles said. Money is alloted according to the cost of living in the country. Graduate students, who are ap plying for exchange lectures pos; itions, can not apply for positions beyond that of their comparable positions in institutions in the United States, Boyles said. Age Limit There is ho age limit for the Fulbright scholarship winners, nor is there any ban against married people. The only drawback in the marital status is that the federal government floes not pay for the winner’s husband or wife. It is possible for the winner to make ar rangements to have the money tak en out of the monthly allotment for his spouse’s ticket, Bowies said. Applications must; be in by Nov ember 30 to the local screening committee. The results of the pri mary screening will be sent in no later than December 15. Applications of men past the doc torate level must apply to the na tional headquarters in Washing ton, D. C., Bowles said. Additional information on any phase of the program may be se cured by writing the Institute of International Education, Washing ton, D. C., Bowles concluded. - TRAGEDY ahh?

This was easy, for all we had 'left was a rug and a telephone book upon which we took our scan ty meals. I soon bribed the policeman with some old comic-books, and he allow ed me a cigarette a day. Pd tear open the weed, scatter the to bacco on the rug, roll the paper up, putting in my ear. I laughed hysterically while my wife futilely searched the room. When she’d shouldered her sledge hammer and gone to the job, I’d gleefully Hoover the rug, re-roll| the cigar ette, and blissfully inhale the smoke ‘ into my one uncollapsed lung: If Then one day I went all smash. I sneaked down the fire escape, and went across town to enter a Pipe-smoking contest. Naturally (I won—was ahead 15 puffs and a long drag at the finish—but the excess was too mucR. for me. I awoke in the Nic Ward of the hospital, sweating, having convul sions, and screaming wildly, “Sold American.” Pink cigarettes were floating around by head. And then there was a quite fig ure standing there who said he could help me. Ijie was a member qf Nicotine Anonymous. “Call me if you need me,” he said simply, and left his card. The night after they brought me/home from the hospital I was sitting in my room. I was fighting the terrble urge. An open pack of cigarettes lay on the mantel. I couldn't! I wouldn’t! But my hand reached (for the pack. I stop ped, grabbed the phone, dialed a number shakily. “Harry! Come over! This is Joe!” r “Right.” He came. He comforted me. He told me how he had gone through identically the same torture. Pick ing up a cigarette^ he 6 u t« it to his lips, and then took it down with out lighting. By George if he could do it so could I! • | I j Se we talked on into the night. He’d brought a fifth of scotch am4 I soon forgot about smoking. We went downtown and got am- otneb fifth. Cigarettes didn’t even enter my head. And then early morning, my wife came in. “Look, Darling, I’m cured!” I shobted joyfully, pouring her a drink. “Oh, Joe, I; knew you could do it . . . gimme a shot.”; So you see, dear friends, you too can be cured of Dfemon Nico tine.
