•Most Eligible Bachelor, â€" Screen actor Montgomery Cliil lookt over a scroll naming him as "America's Most Eligible Bachelor of 1949." Five hundred girls of the Barbizon School of Modeling voted him the title. Concurring in the general opinion are modeli Vivian Kennedy, left; Marian O'Leary, center, and Lynn Moore, right. When it was anuounced the other ^y that Pentti Lund, of the late and unlamented 1949 New York Kangers Hockey team, had won the Calder Trophy as the year'i outstanding rookie; and that furth- •raiorc his young team-mate Allan Stanley had taken cecond place in the balloting, words of wisdom iell Irom the lips of one Conn Smythe. « * • "Thank Heaven" or words to that diect quoth the Maple Leaf's man- ager, "they don't decide the Stanley Cup b" vole." * * • Now far be it from us to question the knowledge and judgment of the individuals who select these All Star teams and the winners of the various annaual awards. As for Pentti Lund being a pretty fair winger, and Allen Stanley a highly useful rearguard, we would be the last to deny that such is the case * » « Still, there does seem to be some- thing slightly haywire in the fact that the Maple Leals, who have been practically outclassing every- thing else in the loop â€" that is to say when the real shooting started â€" should be so consitcntly overlooked when the honours arc being handed out, also the extra cash that goes witli tlicm. « • • We were just about to give up as one of those deep, dark mysteries too tough for us to solve when an old adage came to mind, Jt runs •omelhing like tliis â€" In the Country of the Blind the one-eyed man is King." « * <• So maybe that's liie solution. Compared to their teammates â€" a very sorry lot, taken as a whole â€" Messrs. Lund and Stanley looked so good that they jlcceived the selectors. • ♦ * Sport has on this conlinent pro- dnccd a rather slim amount of po- •try that is at all out of the ordin- »ry. There was the ditty, years ago, about "Tinker to livers to Chance," and the one about the great jockey Karl Sandc, the re- frain of which ran, "(jimiiie a handy guy like Sande, booting those babies in," ol course, iiul, outside those and naturally the immortal "Casey at the IJat"â€" mighty little bat would grade above luii-of-the- nill. • * > llut »e ratlier liked suiui stanzas by Arthur Kramer, in tlie New York Times, and liccause we thought some of you ball fans niiglil •njoy them, also because thej '11 help fill up s|iace on a day more fit tor fishing tliaii |joiimlmg a type- writer, «( riprodiice them here with They're entitled "Kl.ND WORDS Ff)K THK I'M!'."

With normal instincts, normal powers, No different, I am aure, from ours. If, by chance of life, there slid A cankerworm across his lid And, in the course of time there stole A dreadful blight throughout bis soul To warp his judgment color his mind. Curdle his love for humankind, Debase his reason, dim his sight. Convert his kindliness to spite. Harden his heart to pleading youth. Deflect him from the ways of truth- Is his the fault, is his the blame? Shall pity never ease his shame? Shall we forget he, too can trace A Idndship to th« human race?

Back in 1926 the relationship of members of the British Common- wealth of Nations to the King was defined in this way; "the Crown is the symbol of the free association ol the members of the British Com- monwealth (who) are united by a common allegiance to the Crown." On April 27tli., after a conference lasting six days, representatives of eight members of the Common- wealth announced a new definition of each nation's bond with the King, ".'\cccptance of the King as the symbol of the free association of its independent member nations and, as such, the head of tfie Com- monwealth." Whi'e sarcastic Londoners were suggesting that the national anthem be changed to "God Save the Sym- bol", there was an important pur- pose behind the changed definition. As it reads now it permits the Do- minion of India, which has an- nounced its intention of becoming a republic owing no allegiance to the Crown, to remain in the Com- monwealth. The loss of India would be a serious economic blow to the United Kingdom, which badly needs that country's vast niarkets. India, on the other hand, apparently made her decision to stay under the new definition largely because of the trade advantages the system of Empire preferences will guarantee. On the whole, the effect of the announcement has been a real strengthening of the British Com- monwealth's prestige throughout the world; and there are those who believe that Burma and Ireland, which have recently become in- dependent republics, may wish to join the Commonwealth on the newly-defined terms. GERMANY With the possibility that the Berlin blockade may have been lifted before these words reach readers of this column, a slight glance backward might not be out of place. It was on June 23rd, 1948, that a Soviet news service in Berlin made an announcement which read "All freight and passenger services from the western zones of Germany to Berlin is hereby suspended be- cause of technical troubles." With that, the blockade of Berlin was in full blast. The following day the British, American ami French Military Governments imposed the counter blockade which banned all ship- ment of goods to the Soviet sector of Berlin. Two days later British and American pilots flew fifty trans- port planes into the German Capital, carrying supplies. In the eleven months that have passed the blockade and the spec- tacular airlift have been the biggest things in the daily lives of the two and a quarter million Berliners living in the Western sector â€" and the success of the air lift, which was far beyond even the most opti- mistic hopes, has been the major instrument in softening the once- adamant position of Russia regard- ing the matter. It looks ver\ much as though; for once, the Russian bluff was "called"â€" and without provoking the armed clash which so many thought iiu\ liable. RUSSIA liir some weeks there have been rumors that the Soviet Union has launched what appears to be a delberate, large-scale and ofFicially inspired campaign against the Jew- ish peoples. Even those who are willing to believe the worst regard- ing Russia found it hard to believe llusc reports. Inn evidence that they Fiery itching SKIN RASHES?

The tactics consisted of de- nouncing as "passportless vaga- bonds" and "homeless cosmopoli- tan.s" certain well known artists, writers and critics, nearly all of whom arc Jews. Frequently the Jewish names of the victims were printed after their Russianized ones. Copies of the well-known Mos- cow satirical magazine "Krokodil" which recently arrived in America bear further evidence that such a campaign is in progress. Anti- Semitic cartoons satirize critics of Soviet music, plays and movies by showing each of them with a delib- erately emphasized hooked nose and other supposedly Jewish char.-icter- istics. Strangely enough the artist who drew the cartoons is himself a Jew. One of the cartoons bears the caption. "Pitiful and unpleasant arc the quiet skeptics, the abstract perf,ons, the passportless vagabonds of the human race." Names men- tioned include those of D. W. Grif- fith, Walter Lippmann, Somerset Maugham and Jean-Paul Sartre. Just what the RussiaiM are up to in 'such a campaign â€" well, your guess is as good as mine. But I'd be willing to lay reasonable odds that it isn't anything which promises to be beneficial to the Jews. OlRl, for general housework In private home.
