No Opportunities?

IF A YOUNG college man says: "There isn't a chance of success any longer. All the good jobs are filled. All the opportunities are gone" there are many careers created by opportunism and ability of young men that can be used in reply. Superlatives are in order in describing the phenomenal business career of one of the College's younger graduates, Charles J. Zimmerman '23 (Tuck '24).

Charlie started the intercollegiate dance idea. This may not secure his election to the Hall of Fame but it financed his way through Dartmouth, with something to spare. After Tuck School he went into the insurance business and, without overdoing it, we would say he has made good. At 37 he is life insurance's top man—has broken all records for selling insurance (Connecticut Mutual), is president of the National Association of Life Underwriters, said to be the second largest trade association in the country. He is a pleasant fellow and a good friend, but we wouldn't dare talk with him for more than two minutes, not being prepared to sign up for a policy in six or more figures.

This started out to be a moral lesson, and it really is. There are things to be done.

NEW HAMPSHIRE has a first-rate publicity director, Donald D. Tuttle 'oo. Since New Hampshire's main industry is recreation, the work being done by Mr. Tuttle and a few others is just what the State needs if it is going to capitalize on its best natural resources.

Don Tuttle always has not one story but several ready to spring. The other day he told us about the chap who attended a dinner celebrating the graduation of his daughter from a private school. When the toastmaster called on him his response was faltering and hesitant. "I did not expect to speak this evening I am surprised to be called up0n..... However, this morning I saw something in the paper which I thought might interest you and so I cut it out " And his speech went on for half an hour.
