Now yesterday Washington did mot know what to make of a lonely young prince, who says he is a grandson of Alexander II, Czar of all the Rus .:ns, who is looking for just an ordinary job. Prince Bariantinsky is the young man's wame, who has inserted an advertisement in a Washington newspaper asking for work---any kind, he says, "within the law." His appeal points out that, in addition to being desperate, he is a "secre- tary, ealesman, gentleman and chauffeur." But the salary "must not insult my intelligence." The former nobleman came to this country last October, and for some time has worked at a sum- mer camp for children near Stlver Spring, Maryland, a suburp of Washington, He has thrown that up, only to find himself both out RUSSIAN NOBLEMAN IS LOOKING FOR A JOB IN WASHINGTON, D. C. of job and in love. That he is be- wildered is just the way he puts it. But discouraged? Never. Prince Bariantinsky asserts that he speaks French, Russian and Eng- lish fluently, and that his specialty is automobiles. He claims to be an excellent mechanic, having driven racing cars in England where he sought his fortune in guiding wealthy Americans around Europe. This venture turned out with little success. "So 1 came to America," he says. He had hopes of getting ine to the diplomatic service, but found he must obtain citizenship papers, and about five years more in edu- cational requirements. He is find- ing all of this rather difficult. Ad- mittedly he has had a rough time. He has wealthy friends that might help him, he says, but adds that "when you ask a friend for a favor you become a mere acquaintance." The Prince's boyhood, his story goes, was spent in surroundings of utmost luxury. £1 WRI COLLEGE ~ PR Brunswick, Me., June 27.-- When Horace Robbins, of the class of 1928 at Bowdoin College, pre- sents his appendix, pickled and bottled, before the Faculty Board of that ancient institution of learn- ing, he will receive his degree as Bachelor of Arts, and not before.
