Heavy rains and thawing sn ow swelled waterways throughout southern England. Electric Iron Dries And Then Presses August Purpura, of Chicago, has patented an electric iron which can be used to dry and press materials too wet for an ordinary flatiron, claims the Christian Science Monitor. Mr. Pupura's iron has its face 'grooved with a number of small channels radiating from a common point of origin. Through holes in a nipple located at this center point, steam from the fabric, generated by contact with the hot face of the iron, .is sucked up by a partial vacuum created by a special electric pump inside the iron. The accel- erated removal of the water vapor from the surface of the fabric greatly speeds the drying process and the goods are soon in the proper state to take a good pressing with the iron, The element which heats the iron A's on the same electrical circuit as the vacuum pump, so only one cord and plug connecting the iron with the house current is necessary.

ISSUE 14-1947 TS OF SPU By FRANK MANN HARRIS ("A Six Bit Critic") To the unbiased onlooker it is interesting to note the air of puz- zled bewilderment currently being worn by various prominent sports figures, such as Messrs. Leo Du- rocher, Larry McPhail and others too numerous to mention in detail. These gentlemen just cannot seem to realize and accept one of the • saddest facts of life -namely, that the very same stuff which got you a heap of acclaim and applause only yesterday doesn't necessarily rate such a big stand today, * * * Their plight somehow reminds us of an incident that came under our observation many years ago and has stuck in the bog of memory ever since. Next door to us a little boy, two years old or so, was just beginning to talk fairly flu- ently; and his proud grandfather was laughingly encouraging the tiny lad to shout rude and impertin- ent things not only to himself, the granddad, but at passers-by. The kid's mother noticed what was go- ing on. "Don't forget, grandpa," she quietly remarked, "that in an- other year you'll be expecting me to spank Willie, and wash his mouth with soap, for just the same things you field so funny now." * * * For years past some of our big sports heroes have been getting away with modified murder, and not so greatly modified at that, aid- ed and abetted by a lot of folks who should have known better, In boxing, Mike Jacobs and his co- horts have been running the sort of racket which, if it had occurred in any other line of business, would probably have landed then for a lengthy stretch on the inside look- ing out. Yet when they drew million -dollar gates with bouts which, on tile face of them, would make any self-respecting skunk hold its nose, the general reaction from press and public was that it added up to mighty smart promo- tion. * * * Folks like Leo Durocher took pride in raising rowdiness and dis- respect for rules to a fine art. They publicly gloried, not in the skill, but in the toughness and scrappi- ness of their teams, and made their strongest appeal to the lowest in- stincts of the customers. Yet their bawling and umpire -baiting won them, instead of well -merited cen- sure, reams of priceless publicity in the press, countless radio appear- ances, to say nothing of acres of pictures ill the slick -paper maga- zines. * * * Sports reporters and "special writers" have, of course, a lot to answer for. Naturally, they follow the lines of least resistance; and when you have to knock off a TS couple of columns about a dull hockey game, a manager who chases a referee all over the ice is far more help than the same man- ager sitting quietly ill his pew and minding his own business. If you are writing three or four thousand words about some sports figure, what is known as 'color' is a real aid. Babe Ruth, with his liking for the brew and dislike of discip- line, makes far more readable 'copy' than a decent -living citizen such as Lou Gehrig; and a Babe Pratt is much easier to make interesting than, let's say, a Syl Apps. We know, because we've tried it both ways. * * So then, human nature being what it is, possibly it's no more than natural that such widely -pub- licized gentry should get the notion that they are outside and beyond the rules applying to us ordinary, run -of -the -mine citizens and -when public taste changes and folks be- come fed -up with antics once found so entertaining -for them to won- der just what sort of a bomb has hit them. Still the Best Britian no longer can hope to have tile largest navy in the world, but can have the best -equipped and is certain to have the best -manned, John Dugale, financial secretary to the Admiralty, told the House of Commons. Dugale presented an estimate for an expenditure of £196,700,000 ($786,800,000) for 1947-48. He disclosed that the Britishand Dominion navies had accounted for 4,600 mines during 1546, but had suffered no casualties.
