Protocols of the Tehran conference just published also spotlight Turkey, revealing Anglo-Russian-A^erican agree- ment in 1943 that Turkey's entrance into the war against Germany was then "desirable." Also disclosed was the three-power agree- ment that the Montreux convention giving control of the Dar- danelles to Turkey was outmoded and should be revised. SPOTS OF SPORTS Bv FRANK MANN HARRIS ("A Si.xbit Critic") = After one of the current Stanley Cup play down affairs, a Toronto paper revived the ancient gag about there having been two entirely different games the previous even- ing â€" the one tiiat took place on tlie ice, and the one tliat went out over the air. And while it is rather liard to judge tliese things, unless you have a split personality and leave half of it at home, or carry one of these portable radio gadgets so that you can both listen and watch, it would seem highly probable that those wlio take tlieir hockey by ear are getting far. more thrills out of these playoffs than those who actually see them in person. * * * Whicli is just another way of saying tliat the liocke}' hardest to get tickets for is, as a rule, the hardest to watch. You have to stick in your own thrills and ex- citement whereas, taken via the ether route, tlie announcers do it for you. This is hy no means a criticism of these microplione- maestros, wliose first duty to their sponsors is to keep listeners from switching dials and tuning-in some good hot program of ciiamber- music; but it is a rather tunny ex- perience to come home after a dragKy affair like, for instance, the opening game of the Toronto- Detroit series, and hear the folks say, "Gee, that must have been a honey of a game." « * * Of course it is by no means a new thiiiji Tor playoff hockey â€" judged solely on its merits as a game, and tossing tlie gold and glory involved out tlie window â€" to be somewhat tame. .\ny time you get two rival teams playing them close to their chests, and lakin.g no unnecessary chances, the liigli- lii;lits are liable to be few and far between. But it is even more noticeable nowadays when they play what is frankly admitted to be entertainment-hockey â€" featuring speed, speed and still more speed â€" for the first six months or so of the regular season. When they suddenly try to change over lo the real tiling, the boys don't know how to play it. nor do the fans know how to appreciate. Perhans it's just as well tliat tlie foot-shuff- lings, ironic hand-clappings and cries for ".\ction" don't come over the microphone. * « * In amateur liockey circles we can't help noticing a growing re- sentment in smaller Ontario cent- ers at having to act more or less as stooges and sparring-partners for the 'big shots' We talked recently with a man who lias long been a real friend to am.Tteur hockey, and who coiifes.scd tliat he is cetting more than a little fed-up. ".A bunch of us have backed a local junior team for years." he said. "\V c do it because we like to watch hockey, and to give the kids of the nei.ghbor- hood a chance to show what tliey can do. .And of course tliere's always the dream of developing a championship outfit. like in the days when Barrie, Stratford and other smaller places would come through on top." * * * Just how widesincad this feeling is, or what could be done to correct such a situation, we are not prepar- ed to say. But we do know that the centering of so much of the hockey spotlight, of recent years, on just one place â€" Toronto â€" hasn't been a bit of help to tiie game in the Province at large. * « * In all the e.Ncitement over the Grand National Sweepstakes, we have been wondering just how many of t!ie tliousands who breath- lessly waited to find out whether or not they 'drew a horse' might have spared themselves a lot of suspense and loss of sleep. Or, to put it more briefly, what percent- age of those carefully-clierished tickets were the real thing? After talking with a gentleman who should be in a fair position to know, we have come to the conclusion that a great many of us liave been dreaming of winning a life of ease by means of chunks of paper that never were closer to Ireland than, let us say. the city of Montreal. For, according to our informant, the business of peddling phoney Irisii Sweep tickets is once again in full swing â€" and a nice, cosey racket it is because, as you are doing sometliing illegal in buying one. you have no possible come- back. "L'nlcss you get your ticket direct from Ireland â€" and know and trust the man you get it from,'' we were told. "It's better than even money that the one you had was a fake, printed right here in Can- ada." So, Iiaving been warned, we're going to be extra careful from now on. .Anybody know where we could grab a ticket for the Derby Swep? Crisis in Britain Is International It is evident that Britain's finan- cial position is so insecure that it cannot b< resolved without sub- stantial outside financial assistance comments the Montreal Gazette. For the sake of the world economy Britain cannot be permitted to bankrupt itself. Only self-interest is involved for liritain's creditors. But it is quite certain that both Canada and the United States must make further handsome loans to bolster the pound and restore the British economic organization. Britain is now in the position acidly described by analogy by the late Lord Keynes wlio pointed out that when a man owed his bank $1,000 he was at its mercy; when he owed it Si million, the bank was at his mercy. The collapse of the pound would so disorganize international trade and international finance that the cataclysm might well red'uce the world to the barter system. It is a prospect that cannot be viewed witli equanimity. It would be par- ticularly appalling for Canada. whose economy is based on export trade. Britain, sentiment aside, must be revived. It can only restore itself through superlative individual effort supported by foreign finance. Only the U.S. and Canada have the capi- tal to prevent world catastrophe. Together they must help to save Britain not in altruism but in self- defense. Lightning â€" "greased" or other- wise â€" is really fast. Its speed is 10,- 000 miles per second.
