Many of them wouldn't take a girl out if she were guilty of them. Certainly, whether they would or not, the girls would be getting off to a very bad start. And what is more important than the start you make? Don't — and I know what you're going to say about being comfortable in hot weather — roll your stockings below your knees. This seems to be some sort of symbol with most men. My guess is that they dislike more what rolling stands for than the actual effect on their sense of vision. And before you throw this objection clear out the window, stop and think of the men you're defying, men than whom you couldn't find more eligible bachelors. ^ON'T buy shoes that are too short for " you. How our bachelors feel they could find this out, I don't know, but if they did, their reaction would be very unfavorable. This is another point in the psychology of men being attracted to women, and as such it can't be overlooked. They don't like to think of a woman being so vain she is willing to half cripple herself. Don't let a man kiss you good night the first time you go out with him. At least, it isn't advisable in the majority of cases. Igor Gorin would expect you to, and Tom Waring wouldn't care. But Nelson Eddy certainly wouldn't like you for it, and neither would Frank Parker and Jerry Cooper. In fact, it is very important to seven of the bachelors, and fairly important to another. Only Tom and Igor disagree. The next point seems to me to be more a matter of etiquette, but according to these men, most escorts foam at the mouth when you do it. Don't, if you're in your right mind, wave at another man while you're dancing. You can smile and get away with it, but any visible other means of greeting won't go over — at all. So watch yourself. It's an easy mistake to make, if you aren't thinking. Would you insist on a church wedding? Well, if you would, you might get any kind of a reaction from your fiance, according to our radio bachelors. Half of them thought you should, five others thought you shouldn't. Frank Parker says you shouldn't, but to Nelson Eddy it doesn't matter in the least. So take your choice. When I put the next question, I had hoped for a different answer, or at least some sort of compromise. But not one of the ten thought there should be a doubt. In other words, "Don't expect to have dates with other men after your engagement." I might be inclined to feel that this could be a short sighted policy in some cases, but there it is. If you'd be popular, you had better conform. There is the complete composite picture of what ten radio bachelors would want and would hate in the girl they were taking out. The yesses and nos in most cases were impersonal, the rulings of the majority. Perhaps you'd like a more definite description of the kind of a girl each one of these bachelors is looking for. Here they are — and again, you should be able to draw helpful conclusions in most of the cases, conclusions that should smooth the way to your own personal popularity. Frank Parker wants: "A girl who is physically attractive, but her mental equipment is more important and can make up for physical faults. She should be no taller than five feet, three inches, with a wholesome rather than sophisticated or exotic appearance. She should be able to talk about important world affairs, but under no circumstances should she take herself too seriously. Have a sense of humor." Nelson Eddy seeks: "A girl who is intellectual, dignified, not too young, domestic, not wrapped up in a career, who likes music, appreciates art and is sensitive." Abe Lyman likes: "A girl who doesn't drink; an old fashioned girl, a home girl, not a show girl or a sophisticate." Vincent Lopez, however, hopes for: "A girl who knows her way about, knows how to drink a cocktail (one) and hold a cigarette, who is tall, stately, dresses smartly, and is a good dancer. And brunette." Jerry Cooper wants: "A girl who isn't startlingly beautiful so that every man stops and looks at her; who can talk without being a chatterbox, and can take one drink without wanting two." Jimmy Farrell looks for: "A girl who is a college graduate (because Jimmy was once a professor) who is about five feet six inches, brunette, immaculate in dress, broad minded about show business, well read, a moderate smoker, and a teetotaller." Henry King asks for: "A girl who is able to make her mark in society, since this is woman's real career; a girl that a man could look up to and respect for her ability to make her way in the social whirl." TOM WARING, whose taste is really the ■most sophisticated of all, wants: "A girl who has literary or artistic leanings; whose morals are her own business; who is spontaneous; who dislikes fashionable things, going to fashionable places, and being in the swim all the time." Richard Himber's the victim of a wish fulfillment, for he desires a girl who: "Has done things I have always wanted to do and never have; a girl who's gone to Europe, so I could learn things from her; a girl who's a good auto driver, since I'm so bad; a girl who is a tall blonde, tolerant, understanding, slightly maternal." _ Last is Igor Gorin, a Viennese by birth and a resident of America for only three years. Igor insists on: "A typical American girl who doesn't pretend to be sophisticated, who is honest and yet retains just a touch of mystery; she cannot be, under any circumstances, a professional musician." There, for you — whether you're in the throes of your first love affair, whether you're engaged, or a career girl, or even married — are ten men's hopes and desires. Take their words to heart and free your life of some of its most puzzling complications. What Do You Think Of Movie Stars On The Air? Should They Be Barred From Radio?
