In fact, you will hardly dare to go to sleep for fear something will happen before you wake up and one of your fellow competitors will beat you to it. And for what are you competing? You are competing for the opportunity to give up still other theatres, dances, and bridge, while you go on in the effort to be assistant managing editor, managing editor, and president.
