COLLEGE BOYS SOON INBUSINESS FIELD Closing of Study Period Re- leases Thousands to Magazine Selling. 8pecial Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, June 10.—An army ef colloge boy magazine salesmen are tak- ing the field for an invasion of the Na- tion's homes. Three thousand students have gone into the work in the last two or three weeks and are tuning up fn outlying districts for a humdinger of a campaign. By the end of June, with ali colleges closed for the Summer, their number will have increased to 5,000. They will work until the last of September, und by that time they are expected to have produced between three and four mil- lion_subscriptions The campaign doesn‘t begin in all se- riousness until the full 5,000 have been recruited, Boys whose colleges close early are sent+in a bunch to a single ftown, where they are instructed in the intricacies of selling magazines to hesi- tant buyers. Captains in Command. When they really get down to brass tacks they are sent off in crews of four or five, each with a captain. A suge visor oversees from seven to ten crews ‘The main duty of captains and super- visors is to generate confidence and a The work is stif and few find it pleasant. Most impor- tant of all is confidence. As one super- visor puts it, “The boys have to face great competition from all the gyps, grafters and petty larceny experts who drift around the country using the ‘college racket’ to defraud housewives. “Experts have proved chat :f the boys have enough confidence in them- selves women will never suestion their honesty.
