'Dime-a-Dance' Couldn't Rate With Students' Samba Line

The life of an undergraduate gigolo is not an easy one, according to the complaints of students recently hired out as "dancers" by the Student Employment Office. Paid two dollars for attending a three-and-one-half-hour party, some of the hirelings have likened their employment to a prison.

One student reported that after his name was checked off at the dance, subscribed to by Boston high school girls, his coat was removed, locked in a closet, and guarded throughout the evening by two gendarmes.

Although the pay, and an additional 20 cents for carfare, seemed agreeable, other unpleasant factors were the required wearing of a tuxedo, and, one man reported, dancing with girls "I didn't like."
