I'm traveling today so I wont be able to view this issue until late tonight. PAR35 will have to do the censoring on this issue. Just as a precaution I've rated this one PG-13, but how bad can it be....there's a schoolmarm on the cover.

That's no school marm. It's Marguerite Sharpe, 22-year-old government girl.

"Six months ago she was a Hollywood stenographer dreaming about getting in the movies. In October, having passed civil service examinatins, she was called to Wahington to work in the Navy's Bureau of Supplies and Accounts."

The profile mentions that the federal workforce grew from 500,000 in June 1933 to 1,000,000 in June 1940. Hmm. What happened in 1933 that set off this expansion?

There is a lot of good stuff in this edition of Life, as usual.

Page 81 for the nudes; lots of racy pictures showing legs - gypsy dancer on 12, bowler on 81, fashion shoot on 36.

Don’t miss the photo spread on the Rickenbacker crash.
