And then, when I left Princeton in the middle of my sophomore year, I went into the navy.

I applied to Yale, and I got in.

I was going to get drafted, but I didn't really want to go into the Army.

I really liked Yale, although it was extremely intimidating. When I visited the campus, I was hiding behind trees, I felt so unworthy.

I graduated in 1930 and I went up to the Yale Drama School for two years.

I wasn't a good student in high school. I wanted to go to college, but they weren't exactly beating down my door to offer me admission, and it's so expensive in the U.S. If you join up for a period, the army will pay your school and provide a stipend.

So I decided to start writing plays, and went to Yale.

I look at the kids coming out of Yale. They are so intelligent with their careers. I wish I had that.
