Ancient Splendors | Of Modern India In Rajputana, the whiteness cast ils Inevitable | and fragility, At of Udaipur spell - of age any moment, it seemed to me, | the cloud-capped palaces might peel, the plaster come away, and the whole thing crumble like a Hollywood creation; yet the caves of the doll's house shops | were held up by elephants' heads that belonged to times long before the Moguls, and the dim whitewash, streaked by the monsoohs, broke everywhere into kiosks or doors of lacework- ' ed arches, where women stood on steps, their bell-like skirts | swinging above their anklets | and two pitchers at a time upon their heads. All colour was Jov- ely and all movement graceful, even to the pigeons' ballet round the water-palace cupolas in the lake. . . . Every room in the palace must have 1ts story rooms gluss- floored, or lined with Chinese tiles, or roof gardens with maur- ble fountains, or sudden rich pavilions; narrow staircases, and treasuries where clerks squat counting bank-notes as gne pass- es, while elephants painted all over munch their hay in the courts below. In the town, old Rajput noblemen rode through the streets -- white eyebrows and a yellow satin turban, and a white beard brushed from a parting to cither side; or a wed- -ding, where the bridesmaids wiapped in red and orange walked singing behind the groom. He, in a red coat strip- ed with tinsel and green satin a turban, fourteen years old per- haps, rode with a small brother on his crupper and his bride buried among females behind him in a cab. An old Muslim fakir came after, in a rich gown seated 1h an' open gharry, grey hair in waves over his should- ers. Outside the town, where the i lake is surrounded like the background of Florentine pic- tures with low and pleasant but empty hills, the Government feeds the wild pig from a high terrace every afternoon. Out of the scrub they come, grunting and pushing, 4 Circe crowd, un- til their heap of maize is eaten- and they vanish. . . . Jaipur, a walled town, was geranium-coloured with geran- ium gateways, and Sir Mirza Is- mail, its Persian Prime Minister, was resuscitating the fancies of bygone Maharajahs, repainting and refurbishing them as new. Brass ornaments again caught the sun on cupolas drawn like eyebrows; the water-maze for swimmers was blue under pink oloisters; the balconies green against cream walls; and the high wall where one walked to- wards the gates above the traf- fie was streaked by shadow and sunlight under pagodas painted yellow and pink. The town it- self was geranium - colcured by the genial caprice of some ruler long dead; and where the fac- ades had no ornament of white- washed flags or flowers, the out- lines of white windows were painted in for fun. The old pal- - ace, now abandoned, was above, in the neck of a valley, and there an elephant would take the ruler's guests.--From "Dust In the Lion's Paw," Autobio- graphy 1939-1946, by Freya Stark "It is useless to try to hold a man to anything he says while he Is madly in love or drunk?"

Record-Breaking Cash Losses Without gambling or indulg- ing in any form of speculation, some people are always losing money. This happens particular- ly in the United States, where Mr. Donald Macanamara, a con- sulting criminologist, says the staggering sum of $750,000,000 a year is lost through sheer negii- gence, "No nation," says Macnamara, "loses its cash so frecly as ours." # His survey". shows that- only one person in ten ever recovers any cash he has lost But if he loses his car, or has it stolen, his chances of recovery are ninety- five percent good. University graduates, Mr. Mag- namara found, scored highest marks as money-losers, followed closely by professional and bus- inessmen, Of course, there are cash-losers in other countries. In Ringwood, Meibourne, milk-bar proprietor George Nicopoulos always placed his day's takings in a garbage can, until he was ready to bank 1. Suddenly, while sitting in the barber's chair, he remembered the garbage men were due! With his haircut unfinished, he raced home. Too late--his can was emply, and his $514 gone. However, he hired a taxi and dashed to the local garbage dump. Luckily, he got there just as the truck arrived. His cash was saved.

This pair, shown in New York City, 1s made of mock python. The Kids Enjoyed Every Minute Of It Peter Monaghan is known around Melbourne as a man with a talent for making money. He makes considerable amounts of it, but he keeps his wheeling- dealings to himself. Last Novem- ber the 37-year-old entrepreneur found himself in difficulty when a court was investigating a bankruptcy case involving a wire-fence company and the company manager named Mon- aghan as his silent partner. Sum- moned to testify, Monaghan de- cided he was "a marked man," and town. So he boarded his own lavish- ly furnished $42,000 lugger, the Bintang Siang, along with his wife, Ivy, and their three chil- dren, Bruce, 8, Glen, 5, and Ter- rie, 3. Together, they headed out into the lonely Coral Sea, off the coast of Queensland, and began cruising about just beyond the 3-mile limit that marks. the end of police jurisdiction and the be- ginning of international waters. For seven months, the Monag- cruised on. Occasionally the skipper nipped in over the Great Barrier Reef to get sup- plies. At other times he met at sea with one Vincent Vlassoff, who hires boats out of the town of Cairns. Through Vlassoff, too, Monaghan arranged to entertain newsmen from time to time. He even set up a lengthy TV inter- view with Brisbane's station BTQ. After drinks and a leisure- ly lunch, Monaghan went on. the air to display his supply of wea- pons and to announce that any attempt to board his ship would be considered an "act of piracy." He also threatened to shoot "any trigger-happy policeman" who tried to capture him, This was too much for the Australian police, They learned that 'the Bintang Siang had an- chored for repairs within the 3- mile limit and an RAAF plane pinpointed it precisely off the tiny fishing village of Portland Roads. Then they brought up an , RAAF crash boat from Towns- ville, 570 miles to the south, and ~ waited their chance. It came at 6:26 a.m. on a misty morning. Three officers came over the side . and found Monaghan just getting up. He submitted quietly and was flown back to land to face trial. * Dressed down for "masquerad- ing as a buccancer," Monaghan spent five wecks in: Brisbane's Pentridge jail before a judge de- that . he had been "sufficiently purged" of contempt charges to be released, He had a cigarette dangling of his mouth and -his captain's cap was still at a jaunty angle, But he was sud- denly quiet as he headed back toward Portland Roads and his family, waiting aboard the boat, Newsmen who had visited the Bintang Siang during its cruise sald that Mrs, Monaghan hadn't been altogether pleased by the sea-borne life. But the kids had loved every minute of it, When you hear a person say, "I say just what I think," you know he doesn't think, he alsa decided. to. leave. | Putting Golf On Television Between noles Arnold Palme: waits--anywhére from five min- utes to half an hour; when the cameras arc in position for the next hole, he finally steps up to the fee, Just a few feet to the side, the camcras glare aminous- ly and give off a loud, steady whir; there may even be a con- fident cameraman lying down on the grass about 12 feet dead ahead of him. Finally Palmer laces into the ball, sets aside his driver; and picks up his micro- phone. En route to his ball, he tells several million home view- ers what's on his mind and what strategy he plans. This is television golf, a new and strange contest which was dreamed up only a few years ago but which will be one of the hot- test sports on the air this season. Conversely, television itself has become about the hottest thing to happen to golf--or at least golfers--since the emergence of the popular Palmer himself. "TV golf has probably been the big- gest factor in increasing the popularity "of the game," golfer- commentator Jimmy Demaret of the "All Star Golf" show said recently, At first look, golf and TV seem an unlikely match, and for a long time it seemed that way to insiders. "Golf isn't a spectator sport," NBC sports director Tom Gallery said ten years ago, when TV golf was suggested to him. Gallery has changed his mind about that, but not about the dif- ficulties, "It's the toughest damn sport to televise," he said last month. "You get set up on a hole and everything looks great, and then the sky changes when the players get there and you can't see the ball in the air any more." But televised golf also offers viewers unique rewards, not the least of which is the unrelenting exposure of the athlete himself, at close range, in a series of agonizing and decisive moments. The golf match played espe- cially for TV, however, is a far cry from a regulation tourna- ment. "I think the main differ- ence," Jimmy Demaret says, "is getting adjusted to the delay between each shot. It definitely breaks your concentration. There's also the camera noise. But Gene Sarazen, Babe Ruth, Gene Tunney, and I once played a round with hundreds of kids and Fred Waring's band behind us, and I shot 68 and Sarazen 69. So that debunks the theory that you have to have quiet." "Eighteen holes of television golf," said. Gary Player, the other day, "is equivalent to 43 holes of tournament golf, both in time and in what it takes out of you. On a tournament, you get a birdic and it gets you in a charged-up mood and it carries you along. In TV golf, there's the wait. Playing tournament golf is like going straight through, flat-out. Playing TV golf is like playing eighteen separate holes." One unique request that TV makes of golfers is that competi- tors should wear contrasting out- fits for clearer identity. Just What Makes A Detective Tick? The young plain-clothes man, trailing the rather bent old gen- tleman, was exceptionally "keen." He had read all the best detective fiction' since Sherlock Holmes, and had just received a pat on the back from his in- spector, who'd- said he had the makings of a good detective." All he wanted was an oppor- tunity. And here it was. He was on his first assignment, follow- ing a suspected. "fence" who could lead the police to a great deal of stolen property. He had been trailing him for nearly half an hour now, never much farther than twenty yards behind his quarry. } Then, unexpectedly, the old gentleman stopped, turned round and sauntered back to the young police officer - who pre- 'tended to be gazing into a shop window. On. reaching him, the old gentleman stopped and be- gan to window-gaze as well. "You've been tailing me for the past half-hour, young sha- ver," he murmured confidenti- ally. "I can see you are new to the game.. You forgot your false black beard and dark glasses. Ev "Here's my card. Uncle Nat's the name. Anything you want to know, just ask." And so say- ing, he moved. off. : ea, Never had any budding' de- tective felt sillier, And I should know, because the "young hope- ful" was me. What Uncle Nat knew about detectives and how to sidestep, them would have made a manual for any police college, s Uncle Naf was the first person to bring home to me the fact that a real-life detective differs considerably from those in films and fiction, For one thing, the wages of a real detective would ISSUE 38 -- 1063 » tion, He 1 The hardly be enough td" keep a Maigret in matches! The first essential for a good detective is a sense of dedica- should - genuinely be- lieve that by bringing the evil- doer to justice he is doing honest citizens a good turn, writes Ex-. Detective Superintendent John Gosling in "Tit-Bits." No man knows better, than a police officer the anguish and suffering "endured by the vic- tims of crime. Nothing can compensate the injury inflicted by a tearaway bully; nothing can quite restore athe faith of a housewife whose week's shopping money has been snatched" by a sneak-thief. This deep-rooted sense of fair play will bring little reward other than gratitude -- though nothing is more satisfying than confronting a villain or restor- ing stolen property to its right- ful owner. There is no _yard-stick to assess whether a man will make a good detective. Neither educa- tion, family background nor good physique are essential, though each can help. When the Ghost Squad was formed I remember looking with humility-at the other mem- bers and wondering what I had in common with them. i The Chief, then Detective In- spector John Capstick, looked like a farmer. He was chubby and tubby. He smoked a pipe, had a relaxed manner and a quiet voice. Yet before he re- ° tired he became one of the world's greatest murder -investi- gators. } Detective Inspector Nobby Clark looked less like a detec- tive than any I have ever met. He had the anonymity of a har- assed clerk and few would guess that he had an infallible instinct for discerning a wrong - doer, matchless courage and a -lively sense of humour. . Detective Sergeant Matt Brin- nand was long, lean and wiry, and had immense reserves of strength. He hated and despised crooks, especially humanity's dregs like blackmailers and pimps who hated and feared him in return. I differed from the others on the Squad in that I felt sorry for lots of crooks -- the small- timers, anyhow -- and actually liked a few of them. Sir Ronald Howe, the Assist- ant Commissioner, who had call- ed us together, answered my un- spoken thought when he told us that we had been chosen for our integrity. character required to make a successful detectlve in- alydes a mixture of all these ualities -- a sense of dedica- tion and of fair play; unobtru- siveness linked with tenacity of purpose; an understanding of human nature leavened by a sense of humour; courage, pati- ence, integrity, a first-class" memory -- and physical fitness for good measure. . But these alone are not enough. A man may learn all about -fingerprints, forensic me- dicine and the contents of the books, and yet fall short as a detective. God will look you over, not for medals, diplomas, or degrees, but for scars. Edward Sheldon.
