SIMPKIN) Sailing For Tlie Coronation When my sailing for the Cor- onation was changed from Mont- real to New York I decided to take an extra day in the big city and see some of the sights. Arriving Monday morning I started in to see those places which most everyone coming here, visits: Radio City, the big stores and the 5th Avenue Shops, 1 ,watched the lights of the city come on from the observation tower of the Empire State Bfzild- ing. There among the clouds the streets and, buildings came out in lights as the sunset gradually fad- ed in the west. This was truly a magnificent sight. When I came down it was with the intention of seeing a show or night club which is what most pebple believe is a must in New York. As I reached Broadway masses of people were on the street and the stores and restaurants and shows which line both sides were brilliantly lighted and throngs of people were surging along. --I just walked, past one after another of those entrances with liveried at- tendants in front, names of places one often sees in print, down to- wards Times Square. Saw a purse snatcher try his luck and fail, saw him knock over a theatre attendant who tried to stop him, and watched the crowd gather round. Heard a blind man singing, "Isn't It. A Small World" as he was slowly led along by his seeing eye dog while passers-by dropped coins in his cup. "Broadway was our beat." I walked down one way and back on the other side On the end of \ the "flat iron" building a big electric sign adver- tised a Canadian brand of whiskey (which incidentally brings about double price) to the New York thirsty. However, the word Cana- dian felt good to walk past, The restaurants which are everywhere seem all to be filled. One attendant handed me a pass which read, "Beautiful girls as dancing partners." Coronation Theme In front of Rockefeller Centre in a sunken garden surrounded with flags of all nations there has been set up a Coronation Caval- cade. The Coronation carriage with its four teams of white horses and riders and guards are complete in life size plaster of Paris. Details are most exact even to a scar on the face of one of the medalled guards, Throngs of people are con- tinually passing to view it. Finally, when my feet could take no more I returned to the hotel, Tuesday morning I toured • the United Nations Building. The post office there refused to take a Canadian dollar in payment for postage stamps which could be used only in that building. The clerk said Canadian money "would be difficult to bank." It was at this time I suddenly found I was in 'the midst of 70 ladies from my own neighborhood in Simcoe County. They were on a bus tour and had been in Wash- ington before visiting New York. Some of them were weekly newspaper correspondents a n d were delighted to know the week- ly newspapers had a correspond- ent going to the Coronation. They hoped to be at the dock to see me off, all 70 of them. (They also wanted to see the Queen Elizabeth which would be docking as I was embarking.) After a bus ride to the suburbs where the native New Yorkers live in apartment houses I took the underground back to the hotel to pack before leaving.

Color is an important item in summer and many lovely new shades are being featured this year. , Pian a Colorful Wardrobe An all drab costume has no appeal so start by brightening up your basic color: black, brown, navy, gray or beige — all drab in themselves, but per- fect bases for color in accessories.

Various rosy shades have been developed from delicate tones to vivid reds and all are fashion,£avorites.Pink tones are feminine and flat- tering to everyone, If you do not plan a completely pink cos- tume, try pink accessories, a dainty blouse, crocheted gloves or a summer hat. Red for sum- mer is fresh and smart and well established in popularity. Use it in patr•otic combinations with blue and white or as an accessory for summer cottons. The new blue is wedgewood blue, feminine and lovely with summer suntans. Yellow is high fashion this year and is also shown in a variety of shades. Cool greens are pretty in summer as well as delicate mauve tones. You can be an artist in dress this year if you experiment with color by testing these new shades to see which ones are best for you to complement your complexion and bring out your personality. You can choose your colors carefully and successfully to help you look cool and lovely even when it's 9O° in the shade.

TNECaliiert SPORTS COLUMN ee, 34.7, The greatest horse -race In the world wilt be run next wee1F. ft is, of courso, known and appreciated throughout the world as the ancestor of all Derbies everywhere, It is the English Derby, the 1.74th rimming of which wile take place Wednesday at Epsom Downs race track, lit Surrey Ceunty, England. Crowds estimated in the hundreds of thousands have viewed this colorful race annually, and as many probably will witness the 1953 revival of •this event, inaugurate NI in 1780. The Derby, weak imitations of which are raced all over the world, was a famous trace when Canada was a tiny colony, and the United States government was in its infancy. And American thoroughbred racing owes practically all that it is to British racing stock, of which two of the most famous win- ners of the Epsom Derby are now on breeding farms in this continent—Blenheim II and Mahmoud. Whirlaway, winner of the Kentucky Derby of 1941, was sired by the former. As far back as the very first Derby, American eyes were cast on the winner, Diomed, and he was brought to a Virginia farm, proving a foundation sire of American breeding, Rock Sand, winner of the Derby of 1903, came to America and left his mark on the equine blood -lines of this continent, Two world wars failed to halt the Derby. In World War I the ancient raee was renewed at Newmarket as the New Derby Stakes and this process was repeated In the second world war. Contrary to prevailing belief, the English Derby contend- ers run as in America with their left sides to the rail, through- out the mile and 881 yards distance—and on thee turf, The Epsom course starts up grade, then slopes the other way slightly and finally the field finishes on a gentle uphill grade. That takes real stamina, after a mile and one-half heart -breaker. The race usually is open and three 100 -to -1 shots have scored in the Epsom classic and plenty of other long shots, one at 1000 to 15, On the other hand in all the long history of the event only nine horses quoted at less than even money have won, One winner was Iroquois, 2 to 1, the only American -bred and owned horse ever to win the British event. Iroquois was raced by Pierre Lorillard, onetime American tobacco magnate. Probably everything that could happen on a race course has occurred during the life of the Epsom Derby, extending into three eenturies. But the last one you'd think likely to happen would be for a "ringer" to finish first! In 1843 Running Rein, a four-year-old, was slipped in as a three-year-old and he finished first! The deceit was discovered, however, and the winner disqualified. Orlando, 20 to 1, was winner of the $21,750 purse.
