Woolley Beard Worth 5 G's

President Robert E. Miller '48 of the Dramatic Club, yesterday received a $5000 policy from Lloyds of London insuring Monty Woolley's heard against fire, theft, hall, and tornado.

The Club took out the policy as protection against "total destruction of the beard" by any of these contingencies while the actor is in Cambridge acting in the HDC production of "The Man Who Came to Dinner."

The policy is of the same type as those usually issued to farmers for protection of wheat and grain fields. It came as a result of two weeks of cabled correspondence between Club officials and the London firm of William Garthwaite Limited, agents for Lloyds.

When Woolley arrived in Cambridge last Thursday, he was given a bearded reception at which all 52 of the guests, including cast and dates, professors, and reporters, were white imitations of his beard.
