M McCORMICK FARM EQUIPMENT HEADQUARTERS If you've ever dreamed of being in Paris in the spring or England in fall or Scandinavia for the ski season, and then looked at your piggy bank and sighed, consider how you can get there by cashing in on your school books. All you have to be is a top stu dent to see the world. As an ex change student from America you can choose your country, apply for the scholarship, and keep your fingers crossed. Such a break came to pretty Elaine Smith, 20, a Queens College student, now enroute on the big ship Queen Mary to Prance. Elaine, one of 242 students going to France on a Fulbright scholarship, says that any bright college student who uses her noggin may have a similar adventure. Says she: "I was lucky to win the French trip because there are so many competing for that country. Egypt and Iran are two countries that go begging. It seems al' the kids want to go to France Every student should talk to the dean of her Elaine Smith ? A (op student, she was awarded a Fulbright scholarship for study in France. school and inquire as to the quali fications. It'll be well worth the effort." Elaine, who loves music and art, majored in psychology and applied to study literature and research abroad. After an interview by a faculty member she just kept her fingers crossed, and presto she was clected one of the lucky students. Her year abroad will reward her with museums, art centers, music. "Every European town has a good theatre and orchestra," says Elgine. Her scholarship insures her a mod est living allowance in addition to tuition. When she arrives at the Univer sity of Bordeaux, after her indoc trination in Paris, they will ar range for her to live with a French family.

Of these, 16. were women and 27 were veterans. The office received notification of 159 job openings for Septem ber. One hundred sixty-nine per sons were placed by the office, and eight jobs are still unfilled. In the agricultural category, there were 723 placements, 223 of which were women. Most of these placements were for the sweet po tato harvest which started in Sep tember. it will give her an opportunity to improve her high school and col lege French. Another thing Elaine will enjoy is relaxation. Says she: "Everything in America is rush rush. But from all I've heard and read the French appreciate leisure time ? relaxation over food, recre ation, etc., and I'm looking forward to it." Elaine knows that she will work hard, too ? and she wants to. She anticipates going to the University of Berkeley (Calif.) when she re turns. She knows, too, that France isn't going to be all cultural and fun. She is prepared for no central heating with warm nightclothes and woolen underwear for a rough winter. She knows too that she might bathe in a wooden tub and live primitively with her French family. The social life, however, might be smarter than here. Says she: "Simple clothes are in order for daytime wear, but I understand when a French girl goes out she really shines. On these happy oc casions one really dresses to the teeth." Elaine is looking forward to that, too, and a trip to Spain, perhaps, but she is so serious about enjoy ing France as a nation and being a little ambassador to boot that she hasn't given a thought to boys. Besides she's sure American boys are tops and can't be beaten by the most suave Frenchmen. [XjoyutfjUi^jidL/ HIARING! (Omt, M*. IMlll ICON OMY!

Northern lUnne SOU residents ire enduring one kind of pest on assurances from en tomologists that it will mean relief from another next spring. Parasite flies, described by State Entomologist T. L. Aamodt as "so numerous as to be temporarily un pleasant" invaded the northern areas on the heels of tent cater pillars. The caterpillars appeared in greatly reduced numbers this year, largely because of a well-organized campaign. And Aamodt says the parasite flies will invade cocoons the caterpillars spin at this season, killing the caterpillars. The flies, incidentally, are harm less. The caterpillars live off fresh young vegetation, denuding trees. But Aamodt says they do little per manent damage because they ap pear early enough so trees can grow another set of leaves. Police Have Criminal Nicknames on File Too PHILADELPHIA (AP)? It's no longer considered smart practice in the local underworld to adopt a fancy pseudonym to avoid detec tion. The next time a criminal says he knew his accomplice only by his nickname, police need only go to a brand-new file in the city hall detective bureau. The file cata logues known criminals by their nicknames. Some samples in the file are: Skinny George, Fat Garry, Joe the Boob, Pinky Boo Boo, Big Nose, Pretzel, Milky and Choo Choo.
