February 24, 1933 QUEENS BLUES Page Three Gf'eetings, Rudy! God’s gifts to the ladies—and the old maids in particvilar—paid a brief visit to the Queens girls Friday afternoon. After what seemed hours of frenzied waiting, the girls were awarded a glimpse of Rudy Valee, America's most ])opular nuisance. Mr. Valee appeared in a dark Plymouth, riding in the hack seat. The car stopped; Mr. Valee got out, blushing. Who wouldn’t, with fifty fiendish females massed around him? He removed his checkered cap, smiled ingratiat ingly, and proved that the camera can't always be right. He is really much better looking than his pictures. He is a tall, w-eathered looking young man. He is ex tremely tan, and his fair hair is much lighter than his face. For once the canary refused to sing. He merely bo-wed, looking- frightened, and jumped back into the car. The “oh, so blase” blonde, who was with the dis tinguished crooner, aroused more interest than the singer himself. As usual, our very efficient librarian capped the honors of the scene. Her pursuit of the retreat ing automobile wall doubtless go down in Queens-Chicora history. .\t least, it was a worthy cause ; Six Students Join The Math Club and -we congratulate Miss Harrell.
