A fleet-footed scat-back tiptoeing his way half the length of the field, and eluding opposition tacklers as if by. magic? A latergl-passing run with three or four /handling the ball, getting rid of the pigskin to a team- mate at just the last Possible mo- ment? Or a long forward pass with the receiver leaping high in the air to pluck the ball away from rival hinds and then heading for payoff territory? * Ld X We would be the last to deny that all three of these are very spectacu- lar indeed, and well worth watching. But for our money the best play in football--that is to say the most effective play--is a comparativel simple one, yet one rarely i " Not to make too great a mystery of it, we are referring to the return punt--=where the catcher, instead of trying to bull his way down the field, sidesteps a couple of oncoming wings, and then boots the oval away back beyond where it started from. + ' * Football men will tell you that nothing ls more discouraging to a team than two or three such return _punts, perfectly executed against ft --nothing more likely to take the gimp out of a club than to see all its hard work nullified in a matter of seconds. Down in Ottawa the other day, right at the start of the game Joe Krol of the Argonauts pulled an 80 yard return that was a honey, and might have decided a contest which had barely begun, LJ » * If we were ever coaching™a~ club --which, for the good of the sport is something highly unlikely ever to happen--the firs* lesson we would try and teach our players, and the 'last one as well, would be something Hke this; no club is ever going to score many points on you as long as you keep it back of its own twenty-five. * * » In" other words if you consist- ently take a ticket on the team that puts the most foot--and the best foot--into football, it's about as fine a scheme as we know for keeping on the black-ink side. of the ledger. And by the way--even if: Rough Riders did trim them on two successive Saturdays don't sell those Argos too short as yet. May- be, as some are saying, they've shot their bolt and are only pale shidows of the mighty team they once were. Still, we have an idea that when the real shooting starts, they'll be there or thereabouts. ~ ' * 37 TH Billy Southworth undoubtedly did a pretty fair chore of bringing his oston Braves to the wire on top of the National League marathon, Still, without trying in any way to' make light of what he did, South- ~ worth had the stuff to work with and on paper at least looked to have a winner right from the start. * * * All things considered, however, the best managing job in either league was that turned in by another William--Billy Meyer of the Pitts- burg Pirates, to make it definite. There were times when Meyer only had cight regulars available--not counting heavers--and had to go into the game without a single utility infielder or fly-chaser on the bench. * * * ~ Southworth's work of picking . spots for his pitchers was almost uncanny. When a manager has two or three really "solid pitchers" --men who can be depended on to take a turn at mound duty every three or four days--he doesn't have to do very much "master minding". But on one August tour of the East ~--where the going was really tough --Southworth won six games with six different heavers. * * * . That's really. making the most of what you have. ~ Bing Crosby is supposed to be largely interested in that Pittsburgh club; and we think The Groaner might do far worse than warble a few of those golden notes int» the ear of Mr, Southworth. Let's Try Standing On Our Own Feet What is the cause of this infla- tion? Reducing it to simple terms, it is the lack of (1) hard money and (2) hard work. It is the failure to produce the things we need and the failure to heed the oft repeated warning "op increasing our money supply." Inability of war devast- ated Europe to produce her share makes our failure that much more serious. And why aren't we produc- ing? Lack of steel, lack of coal, lack of oil, lack of machine tools, lack manpower? Yes, but mostly lack of the will to produce, lack of the desire to do a job, lack of risk of capital, lack of respect for the pro- fit motive in business. Why is. all this so? It may be that we are all so busy chasing each other around and up the dizzy spiral' of inflation that we cannot give an honest answer. I think it all goes back to our negative atti- tude. We're working against each other rather than for each other. . . These are the days of something- for-nothing, of leaning on the gov- ernment Instead of standing on our two feet. Erected In Honor of the Canadian troops who fought their way into the city and liberated the townfolk in 1944, "Canada" bridge at Bruges, Belgium, shown here, was recently dedicated to perpetuate the memory of the men who fell in action. Victor Dore, Canadian ambassador and Maj.-Gen H. W. Foster, who commanded brigade, were on hand. Palestine "There is an ironic significance jn the fact that the quotation about "sowing the wind and reaping the whirlwind" should come from The Book which is largely concerned with the history of the Jewish people. When the Stern Gang and other Palestine terrorists were torturing and murdering British soldiers, who had been guilty of nothing but do- ing their sworn duty, there was little or no general condemnation of such acts by Zionists and their sym- pathizers in other parts of the world, and especially in the United States. Alr commentators, newspapers and- magazines south of the border held them up as heroes and gloried in eir deeds, But now the picture has ehpnged, For not only in official Israel eircles, but also in the opinfon &f __most_expert observers, there is the _ belief that with the foul murder of Count Folke Bernadotte, the Un- fted Nations official mediator, the Jewish cause has received a terrible blow. Hopes for gaining admission to United Nations membership for Is- rael at the present have been great- ly shaken. That the killing of Bern- adotte was not the impulsive act of some hot-head, but something long Count Folke Bernadotte and carefully planned, is almost cer- tain. For weeks rumors had been circulating in Palestine that the ount was marked for death; and although many of the cooler minded Jews condemned such rumors. as fantastic, killed he was, Had Count Bernadotte been representing mere- ly one nation in Palestine his mur- der would have been, politically speaking, serious enough. But he was there, in theory at least, as the representative of all fifty-eight of the Unitéd Nations. Now assembled in Paris,» and with plenty of other and even graver matters to occupy their minds, are the delegates from those fifty-eight going to accept into full membérship a people claiming to be a nation, but' where such a thing could happen. Just what those who planned. it hoped to ac¢omplish by the assassin- ation; of Bernadotte nobody, possib ty, will ever know with any cef-' tainty. But one theory is that the J Sternist leaders, convinced that, " WHATGOES ON IN THE nothing good could come for a Jew- ish state from the western countries, wanted to prove to Soviet Russia --whose alliance and support they they were secking--that although might be extreme nationalists, they could still be most useful to the Russian cause elsewhere. Anyway it is significant that when all the rest of the civilized world was expressing sorrow over Bern- adotte's passing, a Soviet spokesman said--in that charming Russian ; manner--"He had no business being where he was." Korea From Moscow came the dramatic announcement that Russia intends to get its troops out of Korea by January, and hoped that the United Hates would follow suit. And from ashington came the prompt reply fhat the United States was keeping t 8 troops in Korea until the affairs. --of that country are settled by the "| United Nations and--in diplomatic language, of course--that if Russia didn't like it she could lump it. The fact that the Russians an- nounced their intention to evacuate Northern Korea right on the eve of the Paris Assembly seems to indi- cate the purley propaganda purposes of that action. It put the Kremlin in the. position of being able to cap- italize its peaceful intentions toward the rest of the world; and it would be no great surprise to sce the So- viets pressing strongly for full Allied evacuation of Germany. Perhaps, by the time this is read, that action will already have been taken. Possibly, on the other hand, by that time the Russians will have picked up their marbles and left Paris in a huff. Anyway, the United States and Britain seem to be fully aware that it is one thing for Mos- cow to pull its troops out of Ger- ma where they have thoroughly commuiiized their zone and are re- ported to have a well organized and trained German army under cover, and quite another for the western Allies to pull out and leave all Ger- many to the "mercy" of the armed Communists from the east. A showdown must come, sooner or later; and it is to be hoped that our side will show the same "intest- inal fortitude" in the matter of Ger- many as Secretary Marshall already has done in calling the Soviet bluff over Korea, . FRY The United States In Washington the Thomas Com- mittee--which is the 'short name for the House Committee on Un- merican Affairs*~has been having a fine time to itself during recent months, People from all walks of life have been hauled up before it, questioned about every detail of their past lives and---generally speaking--Ileft with a smear on their names. ) Whether or not the Committee has accomplished anything while in "dealing with the enemy"--it's aw- fully hard these days to remember that Russia ig still, technically at least, an ally--is very much to be doubted. However a lot of publicity seekers and grandstanders got their names and pictures in the paper... the papers got a lot of «7» © looking "spy scare" headliners--and altogether the "oa mittee seemed to be doing about as much real work as such bodies ever do on either side of the border. But now it would appear that there is another side to the picture, The United States Government em- ploys a lot of trained scientists on atomic energy. and other vital pro- . jects--and -could use a whole lot more, if it-could get them. But not only are university graduates in science turning a deaf ear to appeals to come and work on such projects; a lot of those already. so employed are quitting the job and going to work for private enterprise. The reason? Just because no self- respecting person likes to think that, ' at any time, he may be called up, grilled, and have his loyalty ques- © tioned just on the word of some flannel-mouthed whom parliamentary immunity pro- tects libel suit. In at least one key instal- lation of the Atomic Energy Com- mission the loss of scientific person- .nel has been go drastic and the mor- ale of those remaining has fallen so low that there is deep concern as to whether or not the project can be continued. Distances Vary _ People often ask just what is the length of a minute, and of a second, in latitude and longitude; and the answer really depends on what spot on earth you're talking about. Scientists and geographers divid- ed the equator into 360 degrees, _ each degree into 60 minutes, each minute into 60 seconds. After long calculations and measurements, it was decided by inter-national agree= ment that a degree on the equator was 69.65 miles. That makes a min- ute 6,076.07 feet, which is called a nautical mile, used for measuring all distances at sea. A second be- comes 101.268 feet. But the moment you step off the equator and start toward either pole, the lines of longitude; all meeting at the poles, get closer together. Then your dis- tance between lines of longitude be- comes less; at 40 degrees of latitude for instance, the measurements are: degree, 53.43 miles; minute, 4,700 feet; second, 61.83 feet. Now take latitude, measurement of the earth's surface at right angles to the equa- tor. That would be simple on a per- fect sphere. But the earth, whirling about its polar axis, is not a perfect sphere. It got fat at the middle and flat at the ends as momentum 4ug- ged at it when it was softer than now. Thus one degree of latitude equals 68.704 miles at the equator but becomes™ 69.407 at the poles. Sounds goofy, doesn't it? But that's the way it works out.

Prefers 'Fresh Air" To Russian Stuff A Russian officer who claims to 'have been a jet propulsion expert in the Soviet air forces says that he likes the "fresh air" of old England --also that a lot of his fellow~coun- trymen would like 'it too. He is Lieut. Col. Gregory Tokaev whose flight from the Soviet military ad- ministration in Berlin was recently reported and has now been confirm- ed by the British Foreign Office. Colonel Tokaev brouglit his wife and 10-year-old daughter with him, Appearing at a news confernce in London where he was heckled and accused of 'treachery' by Soviet press representatives, he said: , "Give the Russian people just one day of Hyde Park, just one chance at' speaking their minds in public, one free election in the sense that Great Britain knows it, and | am quite sure 90 per cent of them will go against the Politburo" and. Tass (official Soviet news agency)." 0, Declaring the Soviet regime is "fostering a third world war," Col- onel Tokaev said, "I refuse to par- ticipate in this policy and am going ' over to the camp of its nrost re- solute enemies, as. long as this will benefit my people." - / MR.
