MEET OCTOBER 20 The Women's Missionary So- ciety of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church wiII hold their thank -of- fering meeting at the home of Mrs, W. Nott, on Tuesday, Octob- er 20 at three o'clock. The Top Shelf (Continued from Page Two) The man who provided the ex- perienees for one of the most ex- citing escape books of the war— RAF .Mr Marshal Sir Basil Em- bry—is now Commander-in-chief of NATO's allied air forces in Central Europe. He has succeeded Gen. Laura Norstad of the United States Air Force. His new appointment is un- doubtedly a great tribute to both Embry and the British air forces; but I shall always first think of him at the wing -commander who won the DSO four times and fought his way back from a crash of his Blenheim bomber in Ger- many, The story "Wingless Vict- gry" was narrated by Anthbny Richardson and published in Can- ada by The Ryerson Press. I imagine right at the moment John Cornish is drinking copious cups of coffee --like I aIzac—and smoking chains of cigarets in his West Vancouver home, wonder- ing why he didn't become a doctor or an engineer, or a real estate man, instead of a writer. But Canadians may be rather glad that Mr. Cornish did not give in to th- ose distracting occupations that must have tempted him in his ear- ly years. Al I- ie tells me he is writing an- other book. 'tentatively it is call- ed "In Arcady", but what its name will be when it is published in the spring of 1954 is quite another matter. There is something lack- ing in Mr, Cornish's titles, some- thing that belies the promising contents. His first novel in 1051 was called "The Provincials", wh- ich unhappily gave a sales ht. pression that it was a classic tr. cattse on ethnical groups instead Of a charming and witty story a- bout a family living in the out- skirts of Vancouver. Mr. Cornish spent six years as a private in the Canadian Wily, and hat been both clerk and stevedore as part of his metamorphoses as a writer Autumn Wedding Campbell -Ritchie (By. our Bayfield correspondent) In St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Elmvale, decorated with white gladioli and baby 'mums, the marriage took place on Sat- urday, September 26, of Muriel Beatrice, only daughter of Mr. and ram. 'rederick George Ritch- ie,' to John Perry Armstrong Campbell, Toronto, son of Mrs. Olive Campbell and the late Lau- ghlin Taylor Campbell. Rev. E. F. Dutcher, Owen Sound, officiated. The soloist for the occasion was Mervyn Corbett, who sang "A Wedding Hymn" and "Nuptial Benediction". The • organist was Mrs. John Ritchie, Given in marriage by her fath- er, the bride chose a ballerina - length gown of snowy white shad- ow lace and nylon tuIIe, The strapless bodice was accented with a cutaway bolero of tulle, edged with a band of lace and offset with a Peter Pan collar featuring the same edging. The very full• skirt fell away from the waistline fashioned with godets of tulle. Her finger-tip veil was gathered to a matching cap, and she carried a bouquet of stephanotis, baby 'mums and tiny pink rosebuds. Her only attendant, Miss Marie Cooper, Toronto, wore a ballerina- couple. length gown of maple sugar brown lace and nylon. tulle. The strap- less bodice and lace jacket were similar to that of the bride. Her Juliet lace cap was trinuned with nylon tulle and she carried a bou- quet of bronze 'mums and yellow roses, Frank .Morley, Toronto, was groomsman and the ushers were Douglas King, Toronto, cousin of the bride, and Stewart Gordon, Ottawa, The reception was held at the home of the bride's parents. Mrs. Ritchie received the guests wear- ing a gown of smoky blue silk shantung with matching petal fiat and a corsage of pink sweetheart roses. She was assisted by the groom's mother who wore a gown of navy blue lace, navy accessor- ies and a corsage of talisman roses. Following the reception, the happy couple left for a motor trip through the eastern United States. For travelling, the bride's cost- ume was a suit of hunter's grey with black velvet trim, black hat and suede accessories, and a cor- sage of yellow roses. Out-of-town guests were present from Ottawa, Toronto, Lindsay, Yellowknife and Tonawanda, N.Y. The bride is a granddaughter of Mr. acid Mrs. George King, Bay- field. We extend congratulations and best wishes to the young THE rt SPORTS COLUMN 4 met� For some reason or other, we've always been on the side of the underdog, no matter what the sport. You would hardly call Ted Williams, the Boston Red Sox home -run hitter, an underdog, especially if you recalled his sal- ary. But we were griped, on occasional visits to the Boston ball -park, by the almost vicious fashion in which Williams was greeted when he fielded a ball, or came to bat. We never understood why such a truly -great athlete should receive such scurvy treatment, and felt it a tribute to Williams' courage, and tenacity, that Ire should continue to star in the face of such mysterious hostility. Perhaps it will be different in coming seasons for the splendid Sprinter, as the tall, slim batter has been termed, now that he is definitely a war hero. We hope so, particularly after hearing a story that came out of the west coast, after Williams landed there on his return from Korea. He came from Hawaii on a transport plane on which there were two bunks for sleeping. When told Williams was on that plane, a serviceman is said to have cracked: "I know who'll be in one of those bunks when the plane lands". After the plane landed, a sports writer picked up a hitch- hiking sailor who had come from Hawaii on the same plane. "What sort of man is Williams?" the writer asked. "A completely dight guy," was the answer, "What did he do?" prodded the Writer. • "Well, he came aboard with an armful of magazines and dropped them: around for us to pick up and read." "Where did he sleep?" "He just piled on the floor with the rest of us.” And from Washington, D.C., we got another Ted Williams story that belies the claim that he's indifferent to requests, gruff and disobliging. A baseball fan named Jim McNally, a great admirer of Williams, wrote Ted asking for a couple of autographs for himself and his son, Jim Jr., former Washington -Lee High School sports star. Ted replied with two signed photos just three days after the request. Like Ted, both the McNallys are ex -Marines. Williams was Captain Williams of the US Marines. Re took no more, as he flew back from the battle -front, than was available for all others, enlisted or otherwise, so we feel pretty sure were not alone in hoping that Captain Ted William; re- gains his eye, his swing and his speed quicldy enough to hit .400 for the Boston Red Sox in the years to Come, a hope that seems well grounded, for he was clipping off hbme-runs In his farmer brilliant fashion, soon after rejoining his olob.
