MONDAY, JUNE 12. 18S. PAGE 2D 1 1 'TVv l.vwvA av'- ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Case Records of a PSYCHOLOGIST By Dr. George Crane Of Northwestern University A LADY OF DETERMINATION Knows What She Wants and Gets It. CASE M-135: Jane aged 19, is a college sophomore.

"I have always wanted to be a writer," she timidly confessed. "In high school I had one of my poems published in the yearbook. Here at college my grades have always been high in English, but editors don't seem to like my verse and short sto ries. 'Dr. could you give me some advice to help me become a successful writer? It seems I cannot do anything unless I get an inspiration, and my poems and stories are all about love." oo DIAGNOSIS: It is typical of shy, introverts like Jane to crave a literary career.

There are probably 10,000,000 Americans who aspire to become famous by means of literary output. Unfortunately, an intro-vertive life is not conducive to success in writing. It is the extrovert who mingles ws. it I 5 easily with people and knows the social customs and peculiarities of pedple. But the extreme extrovert becomes so fond of people that he, in turn, refuses to tear himself away from them long enough to pound the typewriter.

In fact, salesmen, who are typical extroverts as a rule, will dread to send in their daily or weekly reports, simply because they dislike sitting down at a desk and writing. Sales managers nowadays have finally resorted to printed forms which their men can simply fill in with a few minutes of work. OO IT 13 AN axiom of writing that you must know whereof you speak. any girl whose love affairs have always been one-sided and who is so timid she has been a wallflower for 19 years, cannot hope to write convincing love scenes. Her dialogues will be unnatural and usually too saccharine.

Writing is a common sublimation or outlet for love, as witness the poetry writing in those at the puppy love stage. Happy marriage usually kills such literary Hazel Hayes, Muny By Virginia Irwin FOUND: An actress who refuses to accept role of a female Horatio Alger hero. Will be on exhibition 8:15 p. m. every night this week, June 12-18, at Municipal Theater in Forest Park, disguised as soprano prima donna of "Queen High." The name, ladies and gentlemen, of this theatrical phenomenon is Hazel Hayes.

Her hair is black and curly and her eyes are hazel and full of the devil. She has sung in opera and on the radio, been in the movies, and holds the distinction, to the best knowledge ot this nosey newswren, of being the only actress, alive or otherwise, who refused to tell tales of starving in an attic all for the sake of her art. In her suite at the Congress Hotel yesterday, Hazel treated your rer porter to a bottle of beer and bared her past. There were no dramatics, no yarns woven around a struggle for success. The lady, it seems, always knew what she wanted, went after it and got it.

"I'm sorry," Helen apologized, "but I was never poor, never went hungry, and never had anything particularly unusual happen to me." Considerably taken aback by the only celebrity ever unearthed who wouldn't crochet a little fancy fiction about herself, I stammered my way into that old now-Miss-Hayes-what-do-you-ascribe-your-success-to stuff. "Determination she replied, "and plenty of it." And reviewing the Hayes career it looks like Hazel has the right formula. Born in La Crosse, Kansas, with a silver spoon in her mouth and a satin coverlet on her cradle, La Hayes was blessed with an indulgent daddy. When she wanted something Papa Hayes gave it to her and so Hazel grew up accustomed to getting what she wanted. She wanted to go to the University of Kansas and she went She wanted a Bachelor of Science degree and she got that.

"I was so used to having my own way," Hazel explained, "that I thought I had to run everything. And I almost did the sorority, the giee ciud, me meairicai acuwties.

The secret of successful writing involves a good understanding of your people.

Your college grades in English and the five- syllable words you employ so glibly may actually work against literary success. Those who are doing the writing of the world have seldom been professors of English.

Grammar and spelling are relatively insignificant Plastic Surgery Much Improved, Says Physician Visits Clinic and Is Amazed at Results of Face-Lifting Operations. By Logan Clendening, M.

D. I HAVE been visiting a good many 'clinics lately, mostly in the east ern part of the country, and feel that some of the things I have seen will be of interest to my readers, so I will describe them. One of the most astonishing was a clinic on plastic surgery for the repair of disfigured noses and other facial disfigurements. I saw patients, some of them before and after the operation, and the change was almost unbelievable. Large, hooked noses of hideous appearance are turned into straight Greek noses.

Large, noses are made to conform to the proper proportions and angles of the face. Plastic surgeons have learned that they must study their patients carefully before operations. This constitutes probably the greatest single advance in their work. They have learned to set up a standard of facial proportions and make careful measurements before the operation to see that the final result will conform to these ideal measurements. In no branch of surgery has more improvement been made by those who specialize in it.

I also saw some amazing results from face-lifting, in which sagging chins and flesh around the eyes were improved without leaving a single visible scar. One of the important features of the work is the change in personality that occurs in the patients. A recent study of patients in the Grad uate Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania showed that in almost all cases those with facial disfigurement had an emotional handicap that was directly dependent upon the disfigurement. This is quite natural, and reasons for facial repair were very practical, ranging all the way from a desire to get married to a desire to get a good job in both of which cases the facial disfigurement was a handicap. One patient said she hated her mother and sisters because "they are so beautiful and do not realize what I go through." With many of these cases for years the scar, harelip or misshapen nose had been looked on as a handicap.

Its importance in the social and emotional adjustment is unconsciously all embracing. It is the "hook" on which the patient has hung all inadequacies, all dissatisfactions, all procrastinations, and all unpleasant duties of social life, and he has come to depend on it not only as a reasonable escape from competition, but as a protection from social responsibility. In many cases, because of this attitude of dependency the operation does not lead to a complete mental adjustment and plastic surgeons are beginning to utilize psychiatrists in their work in order to complete readjustment. There is practically no form of facial disfigurement, either as a result of scars or natural or hereditary changes, which cannot be improved by the modern facial surgeon.

Do you suppose they're so numb from hearing speeches and pumping hands that they are likely to start on an ear of corn before they know it? Does the special steward hover behind them and snatch the corn cob just in the nick of time? Humbler people, it seems to us, work out the problem of not eating what they do not like in a more comfortable manner.
