HomeMy WebLinkAboutZurich Herald, 1949-05-12, Page 2"Most Eligible Bachelor,—Screen actor Montgomery Clift looks
over a scroll naming him as "America's Most Eligible Bachelor
of 1949." Five hundred girls of the Barbizon School of Modeling
voted him the title. Concurring in the general opinion are models
Vivian Kennedy, left; Marian O'Leary, center, and Lynn
Moore, right.
When it was announced the other
Clay that Pentti Lund, of the late
and unlamented 1949 New York
Rangers Hockey team, had won
ibe Calder Trophy as the year's
outstanding rookie; and that furth-
ermore his young team-mate Allan
Stanley had taken second place in
the balloting, words of wisdom fell
from the lips of one Conn Smythe.
* * *
"Thank Heaven" or words to that
effect quoth the Maple Leaf's man-
ager, "they don't decide the Stanley
Cup be vote."
Now far be itfromus to question
the knowledge and judgment of
tie individuals who select these
A 1 Star teams and the winners of
the various annaual awards, As for
Pentti Lund being a pretty fair
'winger, and Allen Stanley a highly
useful rearguard, we would be the
last to deny that such is the case.
* *
Still, there does seem to be some-
thing slightly haywire in''the fact
that the Maple Leafs, who have
been practically outclassing every-
thing else in the loop—that is to
say when the real shooting started
— should be so consitently
overlooked when the honours are
being handed out, also the extra
cash that goes with them,
We were just about to give up as
one of those deep, dark mysteries
too tough for us to solve when an
old adage came to mind. It runs
something like this—In the Country
of the Blind the one -eyed man is
King."
* * *
So maybe that's the solution,
Compared to their teammates— a
very sorry lot, taken as a whole—
Messrs. Lund and Stanley looked
so good that they deceived the
selectors.

Sport has on this continent pro-
duced a rather slim amount of po-
etry that is at all out of the ordin-
ary: There was the ditty, years
ago, about "Tinker to Evers to
Chance," and the one about the
great jockey Earl Sande, the re-
frain of which ran, "Gimme a handy
guy like Sande, booting those
babies in," of course. But, outside
those and naturally the immortal

True To Form
Robinson was the champion bor-
rower of the district, and one of his
Chief victims was his neighbour,
Jones. One day, Jones, goaded be-
. And endurance, knocked Robinson
down.
When the latter had recovered,
he called on Jones.
"Wel', tv"hat do you leant now?"
demanded the angry one.
"Does your first-aid book say
what to don for a black aye: If so,
can yo'n lend me for a few mo-
rnent,?" asked Robinson, mildly.
The umpire, in his sober blue,
Nobody pipes a paean to.
Nobody croons him loving lays.
Nobody flutes him notes of praise.
Nobody Iaughs with him at
bars,
Or offers silver foiled cigars,
Or make him gifts of bottled
brews
(However liberal with their boo'Li)
And this, I think is truly sad.
He too, was once a normal lad,
With normal instincts, normal
powers,
No different, I am sure, from
ours. •
If, by chance of life, there slid
A cankerworm across his lid
And; in the course of time
there stole
'A dreadful blight throughout hie
soul
To warp his judgment color
his mind,
Curdle his love for humankind,
Debase his reason, dim his sight,
Convert his kindliness to spite,
Harden his heart to pleading youth,
Deflect him from the ways of
truth—
Is his the fault, is his the blame?
Shall pity never ease his shame?
Shall we forget he, too can trace
A kindship to the human race?
Be fair i Not all his deeds repel]
Why should we choke a friendly
yell
For those he does surpassing well?
Then loudly let us celebrate
The art with which he sweeps
the plate,
And sing (or if that's too much,
hum)
The graceful up -thrust of his
thumb—
In short, let's sometimes cheer
the dumb,
Thick-headed, squint-eyed,
blundering bumf

for Safety's Sake
A man who had made a huge
fortune overnight was boasting to a
friend of the estate he had had just
bought, and of the three swimming
baths he was having built there.
"But why three?" asked the
friend.
"One will be filled with cold
water, one with warm water, and
one is empty."
"But . .. what's the empty one
for?"
"Well, you know, lots of my
guests can't swim."

Q.y1\lorman8lair
GREAT BRITAIN
A very slight change in the word-
ing of any statement can make a
very great difference in its meaning.
Back in 1926 the relationship of
members of the British Common-
wealth of Nations to the King was
defined in this way; "the Crown is
the symbol of the free association
of the members of the British Com-
monwealth (who) are united
by a common allegiance to the
Crown." •
.On April 27th., after a conference
lasting six days, representatives of
eight members of the Common-
wealth announced a new definition
of each nation's bond with the
King. "Acceptance of the King as
the symbol of the free 'association
of its independent member nations
and, as such, the head of the Com-
monwealth."
'While sarcastic Londoners were
suggesting that the national anthem
be changed to "God Save the Sym-
bol", there was an important pure
pose behind the changed definition.
As it reads now it permits the Do-
minion of India, which has an•
nounced its intention of becoming
a republic owing no allegiance to
the Crown, to remain in the Com-
monwealth.
The loss of India would be a
serious economic blow to the United
Kingdom, which badly needs that
country's vast nbarkets. India, on
the other hand, apparently made her
decision to stay under the new
definition largely because of the
trade advantages the system of
Empire preferences will guarantee.
On the whole, the effect of the
announcement has been a real
strengthening of the British Com-
monweaith's prestige throughout the
world; and there are those who
believe that Burma and Ireland,
which have recently become in-
dependent republics, may wish to
join the Commonwealt'llY on the
newly -defined terms.
GERMANY
With the possibility that the
Berlin blockade may have been
lifted before these words reach
readers of this column, a slight
glance backward might not be out
of place.
It was on June 23rd, 1948, that
a Soviet news service in Berlin
made an announcement which read.
"_All freight and passenger services
from the western zones of Germany.
to Berlin is hereby suspended be-
cause of technical troubles." Witte
that, the blockade of Berlin was in
full blast.
The following day the British,
American and French Military
Governments imposed the counter
blockade which banned all ship-
ment of goods to the Soviet sector
of Berlin. Two days later British
and American pilots flew fifty trans-
port planes into the German Capital,
carrying supplies.
In the eleven months that have
passed the blockade and the spec-
tacular airlift have been the biggest
things in the daily lives of the two
and a quarter million Berliners
living in the Western sector—and
the success of the air lift, which
was far beyond even the most opti-
mistic hopes, has been the major
instrument in softening the once -
adamant position of Russia regard-
ing the matter.
It looks very much as though,
for once, the Russian bluff was
"called"—and without provoking the
armed clash which so many thought
inevitable.
RUSSIA
For some weeks there have been
rumors that the Soviet Union has
launched what appears to be a
delberate, large-scale and officially
inspired campaign against the Jew-
ish peoples. Even those who are
willing to believe the worst regard-
ing Russia found it hard to believe
these reports, but evidence that they

are true is piling up, slowly but
surely.
The methods being used are a
little more aubtle than anything pre-
viously attempted by the Kremlin
boys. The tactics consisted of de-
nouncing as "passportless vaga-
bonds" and "homeless cosmopoli-
tans" certain well known artists,
writers and critics, nearly all of
whom are Jews. Frequently the
Jewish names of the victims were
printed after their Russianized ones,
Copies of the well-known Mos-
cow satirical magazine "Krokodil"
which recently arrived in America
bear further evidence that such a
campaign is in progress. Anti-
Semitic cartoons satirize critics of
Soviet music, plays and movies by
showing each of them with a delib-
erately emphasized hooked nose and
other supposedly Jewish character-
istics. Strangely enough the artist
who drew the cartoons is himself a
Jew.
One of the cartoons bears the
caption. "Pitiful and unpleasant
are the quiet skeptics, the abstract
persons, the passportless vagabonds
of the human race." Names men-
tioned include those of D. W. Grif-
fith, Walter Lippmann, Somerset
Maughan] and Jean-Paul Sartre.
Just what the Russians are up to
in such a campaign—well, your
guess is as good as mine. But I'd
be willing to lay reasonable odds
that it isn't anything which promises
to be beneficial to the Jews.
