Outstanding Hockey Game
In view of the fact that hockey

the' midst of busy schedules, the cont-,

fortunate in securing two outstanding
district teams to provide top perform-
ance for this event. Neither tennis

Recently an amalgamation of play-

bound to be the result when these •two

a fine crowd was on hand.
The first period gave 11) indication
of what was to follow so far as goal -
scoring was concerned. The period ran
out with each team gelling at goal. Smith

had scoring chances, but 'Trowbridge
had the edge in play most of the
way. .1.t2mdesbo•o's first string line of
Lee, Johnston and Riley, supplied
»melt of the punch for the 13. -A's, and
it was Jolinstol and Lee that com-
bined at the 19 minute mark to score
the equalizer, wvith Johnston netting

TllHAN FRONT
When solar of us were a lot
younger than we are now, our par-
ents didn't Ila' c such things as
comic books, crime movies, or hor-
ror serials on the radio to worry
about. But they didn't let such a
lack stop them. Instead, they wor-
ried about the "dime novels" we
we used to read just as fast as we
could beg, borrow or even buy
them.
t
Whether or not their worrying
was justified .. , well, it isn't for me
to say, 1 know that I, personally,
devoured reams of "Young Nick
Cartel" and "Old King Brady" and
yet ,fever took even a single step
toward becoming a "private eye" or
any other sort of sleuth, And al-
though I was in at killing -fictional
-of millions of buffalo by cowboys
and Indians, the only time [ ever
saw that animal in the flesh was at
a zoo.
4 *
'1'hc above 'profound' thoughts
were inspired by word from Ottawa
that tIthough few of us, in all likeli-
hood, trill ever have the pleasure of
feasting on buffalo steak or hump,
the way "Buffalo 13111" and the
other pioneers used to do, before
long vee may be savoring the bison
flavor at second or._ third hand.
Here';' the way the story goes;
* a *
Less than a century ago vast
herds of American bison or buffalo
roamed the olid -western plains of
Canada and the United States, For
many years these hardy animals
were the chef source of meat for
the Indians and the advance guard
of early white settlers pushing west-
ward in ,heir covered wagons,
Today as the result of the whole•
sale slaughter during the last
c^ntury, the once prolific buffalo
exists only in a few scattered herds
in game preserves. ..11ut if the
extens:ve experiments of the Canada
Department of Agriculture's Experi-
nu'n.al Farms Service prove suc-.
cesiful in crossing domestic rattle
and buffalo, than the desirable
characters of the American bison
will not be lost, and Canadian con-
sumers may at least have a dash of
buffalo blood in their beefsteaks.
4 .) x
Fur inure than 31) years the Ex-
perimental Farms Service has been
trying to develop useful hybrid
strains embodying ,he desirable
characters of the American bison
with the best features of certain
i;,lrst.': beef rattle .breeds. The
hybrids, whatever the percentages
of domestic and buffalo blood, are
termed "Ca.talos." One great and
continuing problem in creating a
Cattalo breed of beef cattle is a
lack of fertility in the males, says
K. Mackenzie of the Range Experi-
ment Station at s1 anyberries,
Alberta. He has found that this
lack of stale fertility persists in
succecd•ng generations of )Hybrids.
Experiments to date show that even
after buffalo blood is reduced to a
low percentage, only a few male
Cattalos are fertile.
8 1
Early in the tests it was found
that the most satisfactory cross
resulted front the mating of a
domestic bull to a buffalo cow. In
1936 and the following years,
domestic sires of Aberdeen -Angus,
Shorthorn' and Hereford breeds
were used on 770 buffalo cows. The
resulting hybrid heifers were then
mated to domestic sires to give
3 domestic, 7A domestic and so on.
Large numbers of bulls have been

The transfer of the Cattalo from
the Buffalo National Park at Wain-
wright to the Range Experiment
Station at Manyherries, Alberta,
started in the fall of 1949 \when 72
(head, of calves were shipped and it
was completed this fall with the
movement of the stain herd of cow's
and calves to Manvberries. This
change was made because the
Department of National Defence
required the land occupied by the
Cattalo at \Vainw•r:ght and also
because \1a1yber'ics unreel greater
facilities for continuing the work
of improving the new hybrids and
comparing them with range Here-
fords.

The ohj(c. of the experiments at
�lanyInr1'ies is the. saddle as origin-
ally conceited, wh'ch is to create
a breed of beef cattle that will
combine the buffalo's character-
istics of thriftiness and hardiness
with the 'teat -producing qualities
of our domestic breeds.

First of all a sturdy will be 'talc
of ,he foraging ability of the
Cattalo ill winter atilt summer and
also their resistance to cold, discal
and flies.

Secondly their rate of growth, age
and size at maturity will be deter-
mined. '1'hc feeling ;.b'lity and
meat producing quality will be
compared with the i11refords and

calves are planned,

it w,11 be some years before the
Range Experiment Station at 11any-
berries can produce a Cattalo with
the desired charac;eristics, and none
are available for distribution at the
present time, '1'hc herd at present
is not uniform in appearance. This
lack of unifrrntit;; is to be expect-
ed since. the animals comprising it
represent great variation in the per-
cen;ages of blood of different breeds
of domestic cattle and buffalo,

This lack of uniformity in the

standpoint of percentage of buffalo

From a study of the results of the
tests to be conducted, it is hoped
that the most desirable types will
emerge and attempa will be matte
to breed a uniform herd of Cattalo.

On Nm Year':.; Day a horse by
the name of 1301.E110, or• senile
such, stepped a distane of seven
furlongs in the record-breaking time
o; one Illiltntc, twenty-cihe.S2Coiu15.
Next day, happening to mention
to a friend that this was really pick-
ing them up and laying them down,
he replied, "it was speedy, all right;
but not near as fast as some of those
Yankee football broadcasters I was
forced to listen to yesterday, 0,1 ac-
count of my kid insisting on keeping
the radio on fall blast all afternoon."
In that remark, ss c think our
friend spoke an imperial quart. Any
time we tune in sports events from
south of the line, and most espec-'
ially football broadcasts, we are
reminded of an ancient piece of
doggerel which ran something like;
"I love its constant i001111ir,
f love its speedy flow,
I. love to 'wind my ❑10111h up, and
1 love to 'watch it go."
They all seem to operate with the
idea that if they should leave a
split• second of silence on the air,
several million listeners Would im-
mediately tune them out and go
elsewhere, '1'cd rinsing, \ye think it
was, who originated this style of
noir-stop sportcasting; but now
there are at least half a dozen just
alt bad or even worse. They fill the
listeners' ears so full' of statistics
about the . "colorful scene" the
"packed stands" and the crooshial-
iless of the game that, after a few
moments of it, we---personally-
cannot escape the idea that they
arc reading front a prepared script,
and reading mighty fast at that.
It is all very marvellous, beyond
doubt, and represents a wonderful
combination of knowledge, vocabtt-
lat•y, and well-oiled tonsils. 13ut,
somehow o' other, it leaves us pret-
ty cold, and. makes us think of the
great • Sailltlel Johnson who, when
informed that a certain trick was
very ,;ifficult, answered, "Sir, 1 wish
10 !leaven it was impossible" or
words to that- effect.
a c
All of which may sound as though
we bad no proper appreciation for
the finer things in life -which may
not be so far from the truth, at
that, Still, if we have to take otir
sport via the ether, instead of in
person, we much prefer to get it
from .the lips of somebody like, for
instance, our own Wes McKnight,
\Vcs at least sounds as if he was
waiting for a particular play to de-
velop before trying to picture it for
his listeners. Some of tate others
referred to appear to try and out-
guess coaches, players and officials
---anything at all, rather than have
a 'single instant of "deal air"
k A
And now that all those "Ruse"
"Orange" "Sugar.", and other Bowl
games arc out of the way for an-
other eleven months or so, it might
be of interest to contrast a des-
cription of one' of the big English
Rugby games --the 690, in the
series between Oxford and Cam-
,bt•idge, 'I'o a visitor front this side
of the water• it aright seem like a
colorless affair --yet it drew 55,000
spectators, in the middle of the
week, down to 'Twickenham where
the game was staged.
'1 7
"The most striking thing an
overseas . visitor would have ob-
served on arriving at Twickenham",
the reporter says, "would have been
the marking of the play area. In
stead of the "gridiron" the English
marking is a simple platter of half
a dozen lines. At Twickenham last -
week it was made somewhat com-
plicated by the snow covered pitch
having to be raked in places in
order to sec the markings, but that
is not normal,
"The arrival of the player; would
have caused concern too, because
compared to the American armored
giants the English players are prat:-
tically naked. All they wore was
a woven jersey -dark blue for
Oxford, and light blue hoops._ for
Cambridge ---a pair of shorts, a pair
of woollen stockings, tinned down
below the knee and a pair' of boots
with leather or nigher studs at -
inched to the sole,
'Phis docs not 'mean there is no
body contact. '.l'herc certainly is,
and especially in the varsity match.
There is no obstructing and only
the player with the ball may be
tackled, When a player has the ball
he either kicks it, rens forward
with it, or passes it and a spontane-
ous plan develops from what he
does. Very often what tic does do,
and he did it plenty last week, is
to be placed with no little violence
011 the greensward by a member of
the opposition. lit "Rugger"' it is
simply not done to be hurt seriously
in the course of a tackle, And so
mindful of convention 'are Rugger
men that they usually contrive to
get up and go on playing with un-
abated zeal.
"13y: contrast with the i\niericau
pante Rugby is a non --stop per-
formance with each movement
vamped up as play goes one. There
arc no "time outs", no huddles or
committee meetings, and no distance
ntcasurilgs and other stoppages,
'Therefore Rugger has a continuity
of action that the American gauze
does not provide,
0 + t
"The British crown is another
noticeable contrast, The nearest
approach the varsity Rugger folk
ever have to organized rooting is
the ribbon favours they wear. Most,
however, prefer the distinction that
is proclaimed by their college tics
or nulfflers. The outbursts of cheec-
iug • that accompany the play
throughout are always spontaneous
and there are no loudspeakers blar-
ing commentaries of what is hap-
pening, Nor, happily, those persis-
tent commercials which threaten
results to anybody who does not
immediately purchase something of
other,
A cynic might interpolate here
with 'Well, the British have nothing
10 buy anyway,' But with Rugby
1 should say that the play was too
fast and continuous to make com-
mercial anuotlmeentetlts a worth-
while ,prospect. 1t certainly was in
tltc game we have under review, It
was an 80 -minute non-stop thrill,
except for the five-minute interval,
!Jere again, we have a contrast,
because the Rugg. • amen don't leave
the field, They stand in the middle
sucking slices of lepton or oranges
if the allocation has comic their way.'

King Winter Spotlights King Cotton
THE arrival of King Winter is a cue for King Cotton to
go north.
Although generally considered a summer fabric, cotton
has successfully stolen this year's snowy fashion scene by
virtue of its light weight and versatility,
The cotton boucle tweed suit (right), for instance,
stakes a practical, crush -resistant travel costume. Featur-
ing a belted, button -front blouse, the suit achieves graceful
Tines with a slim tapering skirt.
Black accessories, a gold choker and novelty bracelets
further compliment the pert ensemble,

SAVE IT UP
In the middle of a whipping the
young son convinced he was being
beaten unjustly,
"Very well, son." his mother re-
plied with grist ]tumor, "but we
have gone so far that we may as
well proceed. It will be credited
to your account for next time,"
Young James And
His Steam Engine
Thr story is told, of hot, this
Scottish boy, lathes Watt, sat on the
heart.) in Ids mother's cottage, in-
tently %•itching the steam rising
from the south of the tea kettle,
and of the great role which this
sboy afterwards assumed in the
mechanical world. It was in 1763,
when he was twenty-eight and had
the .ppointinelt of mathematical -
instrument maker to the University
of Glasgow, that a model of Nev-
comen's steam pumping engine was
brought into his shop for repairs.
One can perhaps imagine the feel-
ings with which Janus \Vitt, inter-
ested from his 'Quill in mechanical
and scientific instruments, partic-
ularly those which dealt with stcant,
regarded this Newcomen engine.
Now his interest was vastly quick-
cnccl -Ile set up the model and oper-
ated it, noticed how the alternate
heating and cooling of its cylinder
wasted power, and concluded, after
some tvicelcs of experiment, that, in
order to slake the engine practic-
able, the cylinder must be kept 'tot,
"always as hot as the steam which
entered it." Yet in order to condense
the steam there must be a cooling
of the vessel. The problem was to
reconcile these two conditions,
At length the pregnant idea: oc-
curred to hint—the idea of
separate condenser. It came to hits
on a Sunday afternoon itt 1765, as lte
walked across Glasgow Green. -If
the steam were condensed in a vessel
separate from the cylinder, it would
be quite possible to keep the con-
densirg vessel cool and the cylinder
hot at the sane time. Next morning
\\Taft began to put his scheme to the
test and found it practicable. He de-
veloped other ideas and applied
then:. So at last was bort: a steam
engine that wool([ work and multi-
ply man's energies a thousandfold.

Little Possum With
Millions Of Friends
'When the \\'asliiugtot Star jug-
gled its comic strips recently to
make roost for a new one, the
editors worried not a bit about
dropping an odd little strip from
the top of the page. Its name: Pogo.
but the re;i 11) 11 was -sharp and
swift. 111 caste a letter signed by
18 members of the "Pogo Protec-
tive League" demanding that the
strip "he returned to its rightfully
superior position" lest "in;ign;wt
readers evcrytchere rise. up in arm-
ed aright to crush this infamy."
Gravely the Star's editors bowed
to the will of the reader's, hestored
Pogo t0 the n.p.
The Star was not the first paper
to find that Pogo's pals are as
loyal and vociferous as L'il Ab-
ncr's.\fter only 14 mouths of syn-
dication, Pogo is appearing in I26

1'ogol;uul's characters ;,t e talk-
ing animals who live in the Oke-
fenokee Swamp and call them-
selves "nature's screetures." Pogo
himself is a wide-eyed, naive little
possum, and his pals include a.
radish, cigar -smoking alligator
named Albert; Porky Pine, a
gloomy realist; Chnrcby LaUerilale,
a turtle and a reformed pirate cap-
tain; Howland Owl, a nearsighted,

invent an "Adam Ilomb"; a pride-

Together they romp and fuss, con-
versing In a wagucly Southern dia-
lect that drips with puns and non-
sense verse; "Oh, the parsnips were
snipping their snappers. While the
parsley was parseling the peas.'.
Creator of Pogo is tall, moon-
faced Walter 1Cel1ti, 37, (rho has a
quick ear for fantastic word twists
and a gentle eye for the gentler
foibles .of mankind. Kell, who
spent five years as a cartoon ani-
mator for \\'alt I)isney, began draw-
ing Pogo in a daily strip in 1948,
while he was art director of the
New \'ork Star. After the Star
folded, the Post-Iiall Syndicate res-
cued Pogo and started Lint on bis
rapid climb.
Pits and Pie
Pogo, which frequently takes a
pole at U.S. manners and Morals,
usually sticks to such personal
prolllens as Porky's courting of
Mant'selle I-lepzibath, a skunk ,with
a French accent. To help Porky,
Albert and Churchy offer their
services as sed� sT.sin, in tyni- -
cal Pogo,s'i.'t1e: "Oft,, pick ac pv x-�-"-"r
"...GC—Teach pits, pockets full of pie,
foreign twenty blacicboards baked

Pogo, which now pays Kelly
about $25,000 a year, has so far
. turned away from the blandish-
ments of toy manufacturers, book
publishers, etc. Pogo and Itis pals
have no greater ambition than Hor-

spent Christmas with Partner's
brother's family at La Cave—and
his ''mysterious parcels" came by
mail, But Johnny was here for
Christmas dinner and we also in-
vited his brother Bob. So we did
have a "Bob" for Christina's after
all. Everyone managed to do full
justice to my Christmas dinner with
all the trimmings. Then ,cause the
. fun of unloading the Christmas tree
and discovering the contents of the
boxes and parcels so gaily wrapped
and beribboned. There were also
telephone calls from various friends
home for the hoidays—and then the
inevitable dishes!
Christmas night Daughter took
the late bus back to Toronto. That's
what conies of being a landlady!
All the other occupants of her house
had gout away for Christmas with
the exception of one tenant and her
little boy—and since that same ten-
ant was expecting a call from the
stork at any time Daughter did not
feel that she should leave the house
for very long especially as the
weather got very cold.
So now we are alone again ---
with the carcass of the chicken to
feast on—and a chance to catch up
on the news. And speaking of news
1 ate sure everyone was glad the
Communist attack in Korea that
AVM expected at the full of 1110011 did
not materialize, But e\ten at that
there is plenty of news. Imagine
the Coronation Stone being stolen!
Nothing in the British Isles is more
steeped in historical tradition than
ihat-,ame stone. And British people
don't like any disrespect shown to
their traditions. s1fter all England
wouldn't be England without its
traditions.
It is said the Coronation Stone
was used by Jacob for a pillow,
The sante night that he used it
Jacob had a vision in which God
Made a cont'enan1 with slim. '.!'hen
1acob made an altar of the Stone
to worship God, Twenty-one rears
later he took the. Stone with hint
down to Egypt and when lie died
cc9uitted it to jos:ph's keeping.
The Stone remained in the custody
of the Israelites during their \won-
dcriugs until the time of Jeremiah.
About Z•80 133,C. Jeremiah gave his
Cot/Sett' to the marriage of his
grand -daughter Tea Tepid to .the
i(i,ig of Ireland providing the Ding
would give up idols and establish
"schools of the prophets" in the
North of Ireland. This was done,
the two were married, and the Stone
of Israel placed in the Royal Pal-
ace ;air' the two crowned upon it,
When the King of Ireland captured
Scotland he set up his kingdom
there and the Stone of Destiny was
also taken there. Later it was trans -
!erred to London where it has re-
mained for over 600 years, '14iis
Stone, has two iron links at either
end of it, almost worn through
hecamsc. according to tradition, it
was carried by the children of Israel
through the \yil(lerness, and '0n its
long journey to the British Isles.
in c',riobbration of this tradition it
is said that on all island not far
front Ulster there is a cemetery
where the tonth of Jeremiah can be
s-:cn, also that of Zcdekiab's daugh-
ter, 'the Princess lea "Tepid. Many
think this is proof positive' that the
ten tribes of Israel actually reached
the British Isles.

argument?

Beauty Aids Are
An Ancient ,story
Fashionable Greek and Roman
ladies used elaborate aides to beauty,
'.('hey began the day by having
their hair piled up in diadems as
high as towers, If the hair was
thin they used artificial tresses
dyed blonde with goat's fat and
beech ash, or perhaps black hair int -
ported from India. Artns and brows
were painted with chills and white
lead, cheeks and lips with ochre 91'
wine lees, eyebrows and round the
eyes with powdered antimony. 'Then
they were loaded with jewels, trin-
kets, bracelets, car -rings and pen-
dants.
Nothing like it was seen again
until the eighteenth century in
France, when Ivfadause Pompadour
set what one critic called "the
stupid habit of rouging." Ladies
laid on the rouge so thick that
it was hard to tell one front another.
"'They not only obliterated their
faces," says the critic, "but quenched
every feeling of desire in men, whose
one wish was to flee from them."
French women have always
specialized in the arts of feminine
seduction, and they have never
been afraid to go to extremes. In
the last century, famous cocottes
in Paris dyed their hair bright red,
rouged their cheeks anti attached
lon gart1ftcial lashes to their eyelids.
?tlidw'a3' between them and the
ladies of society was a strange
class of super -vamp known as the
demi-castors, who dressed like

cottes and the demi-castors who
made Paris the world's fashion
centre. They dressed at \\'or•th's,
drove in elegant carriages and, ex-
cept in private, behaved with the
hauteur of duchesses, The more

OOT A WORLD -SHATTERING IDEA
. THEN SAID "FOOL THAT I WAS"
Every day millions of nen, the
world over, hack off hundreds of
thousands of miles of hair from.
countless acres of faces.
The harvesting of this formidable
crop has invoked more oaths and
lamentations through the ages than
any other toilet activity, , It is of
great antiquity writes jai Peters
in 'Answer's"
, Bronze Age razors have been un-
earthed 'and metal razors used in
Egypt in 3400 B.C, have been dis-
covered, Farther back the first
razors were probably sharpened
flints, Before' that the technique
was probably to phtck the hairs
out --a method that is still in use
in parts of China to -day,
\talc agony began to ease in the
early 19th century when the tech-
nique of hollow grinding was evolv-
ed, Until thou steel razors were
wedge-shaped, tapering to a sharp
edge. They were bard to sharpen,
The trick of hollowing out the sides
of the blade by grinding made it
easier to sharpen and improved the
cutting edge,
That Sharp Edge
The cut-throat is still the razor
favoured by most barbers, who as -
sere that you can get a closer shave
with it than with any other razor.
But in every day use it is out-
. »timbere(1 by the safety.
'lite first safety razor was design-
ed by a Frenchman, Perret, in 1771,
He made a razor with a small blade
placed in a holder so that only the
edge could touch the face. 13ttt
although Ferrers razor worked, the
world had to wait another 150 years
before the efforts of an American,
King (;. Gillette, made the safety
• razor as universal in modern bath-
rooms as toothpaste,
A razor was only a sharp edge,
he argued. The rest but a support
for this edge. \Vhy spend time and
labour forging a big piece of steel,
hardening and grinding it, and riv-
eting a handle to it. \Vhy not make
a blade that could be used once and
thrown away?
"1 stood there before the mirror
in a trance of joy at what I saw,"
he wrote. fie sent off a letter to his
wife. ''I've got it; our fortunes arc
made."
Gillette strode blithely to a near-
by hardware store, bought brass
lengths of clock spring steel, a
hand -vice and files.
"Fool that 1 wars," he said later,
"1 knew little about razors and
practically nothing about steel, and
could not foresee the trials and trib-
e
ulations I was to pass through be-
fore the razor was a success." '
One of his biggest headaches was
to find a thin steel that would keep
Hat when sharpened. For six years
Gillette plftycd round with his bits'
of steel and tried to. find someone
to back his idea with hard cash.' '
In 1901 he met William Nicker -
500' a mechanic, who ironed out
some of the technical snags. More
struggles lay ahead, but the razor
was now a practical proposition,_
and they found backer.
' Gillette's Boston, U.S.A., factory,
-started in 1905, to -day turns out 27
million blades a week and 16 tnillion
razors a year. The London factory
makes 10 million blades a week,
Two Rivals
Another landmark in the Battle
o' Whiskers came with the inven-
tion by another American, N. J.
Gaisman, of a stroppablc safety
razor, 11.e offered the idea to Gil-
ette who turned it down,
Gaisman consequei.tly started to
manufacture -on his own account.
Ile, too, had -an uphill struggle at
first, but by the end of the 1920's
the autostrop razor was a formid-
able. rival to Gillette's bladcs.
In 1930 the two American _ com-
panies verged,
Other manufacturers were soon
producing safety blades, Other in-
ventors were busy, too, and elec-
tricity was about to he harnessed
to the problem.
In 1919 Colonel Jacob. Schick re-
tried from the. American Army be -
OW 0
catse of ill -health, A few years
later, while recovering from a
sprained ankle and growing an irri-
tating crop of whiskers in the Alas-
kan wilds, Schick experienced much
the same sort of inspiration as that
which had burst upon Gillette, Why
not a shearing edge and blade on a
powerful little motor he asked him-
self as he thought the problem over.
Schick was an euginccr and in-
ventor, and was better eguipped
than Gillette,
But even So, it was still several
years before Schick had solved his
problems, ',lite original factory in
1930 had a staff of two—Schick
and a helper, The first electric dry -
shaver came on the market in 1931
in the noddle of the )3ig Slump.
ft was a compact little gadget with
cutting teeth moving at the rate of
7200 times a minute,
Inventions to Come?
Other manufacturers cants into
the field, some, with different ideas
for heads and cutting edges, All
dryshavers, whether electric or
hand -driven, work broadly 611 the
sante principle, Blades or teeth,
moving at high speeds, cut or pul-
verize the hairs as they project
through round holes or slots in a
shaving head.
J2azors,-whether cut-throats, safe-
ties or Iley-shavers, are all gadgets
for cutting hairs, Perhaps at' this
moment an unknown is afire with a
revolutionary idea for burning the
hairs away with a harmless ray. Or
with a scheme for an effecivc hair
!remover—or better still, something
that will stop hairs front growing at
all.
One Of The Oldest
Arts--Ropemaking
'1'hc twisting of fibres into rope
is one of the oldest of the arts, The
Egyptians and the Chinese slid it;
the American Indians and the Poly-
nesians did it; the Romans and the
Greeks and the Anglo-Saxons (lid
it. Boston imported a ropcmakcr
from England as early as 1641; by
1794 there were fourteen ropewalks
in that town alcne; by 1810 there
were 173 ropewalks in the United
States. But competition constantly
reduced their 0u111hcrs, while output
increased. . .
The essential processes of rope -
making are the same now as in
1824, although machines have im-
mensely speeded up every process.
The fibre, purchased in great bales
as it cause from a warehouse on the
Baltic or ' a "hemp mill" in the
American ,West, first had to be
hackled, 'J'llis was a process, like
combing a lady's long hair.
Every subsequent operation, ex-
cept the tarring, had to be perform-
ed in a ropewalk when Plymouth
Cordage w'aas founded. Originally a
ropewalk was a level yard or field
marked outwith a series of pegged
posts on which the yawn, strand or
rope was hung as fast as it was
spun, formed or lai(I. The vagaries
of New England weather required
ropewalks to be covered, and by
1824 these long wooden sheds with
square wit,clows, resembling a mod-
ern "roadside diner" pulled out to
thirty times its length, were famil-
iar features of almost every sea-
board town, There were already one
or more in Plymouth in 1824. Ow-
ing to the use of tar in ropemaking,
ropewalks frequently burned down
and selectmen were always trying
to plash ,hent out into the country,
lm Boston, for itsta nce, the princi-
pal ropewalks in 1819 were on the
edge of what is now the Public
Garden, After the third big fire that
year, they were rebuilt in the sub-
urbs, The Charlestown Navy Yard
still operates' a stone ropewalk
built in 1831, bus only the Navy
could afford to build with stone.—

Land Of Peace
And Independence
Orson Welles' propaganda against
Swiss neutrality in the filet, the
"Third Man,"-- that all 100 years
of peace had produced was "the
cuckoo clock" dill not disturb the
Swiss. '
The peace, independence, and well-
being achieved for 4,000,000 people
speaking four languages, they be-
lieve something to cherish and be
proud of,
"Besides," they tell you, "the
cuckoo clock comes front Germany."
Probably there is no country in
Europe where the public attitude
today toward government is more
nearly lilac the American than itf
Switzerland. Railroads, telephones,
radio, and telegraph are national-
ized but the Socialists are not the
dominant party. The railroads run
at a deficit,. but government . sub-
sidy seems to be the only way this
small country can operate them
efficiently,
It Inas leen 15 t0 20 years since
the leading Swiss plants have had
strikes, though a large portion of
workers are organized, Both labor
and management arc protected by
industrywide no -strike agreements
that set wages.
Switzerland has ventured a little
way into health insurance but it
covers only lowest -income groups.
Management is enlightened to a
point where it provides welfare
programs that malty wage earners in
other countries are still striving
for through , collective bargaining,
Brown Boveri which employs '6,000
workers in its vine -decorated shops
at Baden, putt into its welfare fund
two and one-half times what it paid
to its share -holders in 1949-50. \cost
of Switzerland's factories' are close
to the green countryside \viten. man-
agement is helping finance garden
flats or houses at lower costs than
workers would otherwise have to
pay. 'Che bathtub is still a novelty
in many rural Swiss homes but is
a feature of these housing projects.
If he looks closely, evert the
American used to the spectacular in
modern contrivances can find things
in Switzerland to excite the imag-
ination. For instance, you can dial
any telephone number in the count-
ry. You can' get the latest news on
the telephone every four he •s, and
a telephone operator will walks you
in the morning for just a, Slight
charge.
In St. Gall, musty civic,minded
persons have done away ,with the
habit/ of sending Christmas cards
that usually go into the tvastehasket,
Instead, for about $5, they insert
greetings to their friends in the St.
tall '1'agblatt. The money goes to
charity.

Playing Chess
By Machinery
It is possible to devise machines
that could learn to play chess and
other games, says Dr. J. Broom -
ski,' British mathematician, in a
contribution to "Nature," British
scientific journal. Machines can be
made to make the best move at
each step in a game of tic-tac-toe
or chess by providing them with a
mechanism for learning, be writes.
\Vhcn playing against a series of
Inman opponents, he asserts, "such
a machine may never do ranch
better than draw, :\ good human
player against the sante opponents
may score more wins by making un-
sound but more puzzling moves,"
On the other hand, he continues,
a machine can be made t0 imitate
the human player. Instead of play-
ing perfectly, it can be made to
play well by the inclusion of an
c+mirical or statistical mechanism
in three units. Otte unit would
I, lilt uta:chine experiment with
different alternatives each time
certain positions arc reached. The
second would count the results and
relate theme to the alternatives cho-
sen, while the third unit would steer
the. machine into the lines of play
Than had been winning most often.
Could Classify Players
"Indeed, the mechanism can be
made more subtle," Dr. Bronowski
states. "The second unit could also
be made to classify players, say by
their opening moves, into the bold
and the timid. The third unit would
then, in a given end gauze, choose
the move which had loon most
often against players of that type.
"By putting in a mechanism
which estimates the probability of
success in the furore by analyzing
the distribution of successes in the
past, it is possible to devise a ma-
chine 'so that it learns, matures and
even develops a style.
"Perhaps this is 1101 the ivay in
which animals learn, or perhaps, on
the contrary, it is the very reason
w•hy• animals play games at all.
But 1 ant confident that the incitt-
sion of such statistical mechanisms
will be an important development
in machines, 1. can speak for its
usefulness in strategic problems,
for 1 Myself used it in a rudinten-
tat'y form in bombing studies, in
those days when we worked with
punched cards.,"
While it is true, he argues,- that
a machine ('atlilot learn unless it is
provided with a mechanism for
learning, it is quite possible to (le -
vise such a ntechanisnl,

The Voice Of Temperance
From England comes the report that
it is no longer considered polite to
drink and get drunk. This has C0111C
about because of the decrease in the al
cohoiic content of beer and the in-
crease in the cost of hard liquor. it
is not a matter of narrow Puritanism
but of decency and common sense that
the influence of IkIttor is degrading,
When will good taste impose its ban
on people whose conversation and con-
duct reveal the blight of drinking? It
is not polite to be maudlin or noisy
with drink.—Advt.
