However, she says that her main Interests in life are eating, reading and sleeping, but on the side she enjoys dabbling in art and interior decorating. Her plans for the future are not too definite but her two main ambitions are to become either a sergeant in the W. A. C. or a second Helen Hayes. Certainly, in the former field, she could employ to advantage her natural ability as a leader. More power to you, Bette. 8
