Maurico was asked In an inter-i view (says Reuter) to select the world's ten most beautiful women, but he said he would prefer to choose the ten most fascinating.

The Comteas de Maigret, he anid, was the most fascinating of all the women he has met. Tall and slon- der, radiant in both mind and body, she would, if brought to the screen, be the most glamorous of all the stars

Miss Clare Brokaw is the most fascinating woman he has met in well ДА "Brilliant as America. beautiful, and, although serious minded, she has wit and all the social charms," he explained.

Kay Franels, Marlene Dietrich, Morle Oberon, Greta Garbo, and Anna Sten he grouped together as being equally fascinating.

TOO MANY JEWS

IN MEDICINE

DR. MCCONAUGHY'S ARGUMENT

Now York, Jan. 30..

Controversy marked the comment

of educators upon a memorandum issued recently at Wesleyan Uni-

versity advising Jewish pro-medical

students of dimedities in obtaining admission to medical colleges.

Such difficulties are due to the fact that the large number of Jewish applicants for medical courses is disproportionate to the percentage of Jews In the United States, according to the memoran- dum Issued at the Middletown, Conn., College. The memorandum was from Dr. James Lukena Mc- Conaughy, president, and Dr. Ed- ward Christian Scheider, propessor of biology,

Educators at other institutions failed to agree with the opinione contained in the Wesleyan com- munication to pre-medical students.

Dr. John Wyckoff, dean of New! York University, expressed the opinion that there was "no pre- judice" against the Jews in most American medical schools. At New York University, he said, Jowa number 60 per cent of the medic students and are accepted purely on scholarship and character.

Dr. Willard Cole Rappleye, dean of the Columbia University college of physcians. and surgeons, sald that the best men we can find, regardless of race, creed or colour." were admitted.

Dr. Harold Rypins, Secretary of the State Board of Medical Exam- iners, said thero was "plenty of room" for competent Jewish stud- ents in the medical schools.
