The Seaforth News, 1949-09-01, Page 2LIFE IN THE 010 BOY YET—As he neared the all-time record
for number of games played by a shortstop, veteran infielder Luke
Appling of the Chicago White Sox posed amiably for a photographer
to prove that the old rockin' chair hasn't got him yet. Luke was
"inning for the record of 2158 games set by Rabbit Maranville.
PORT
Bobby Locke, after winning the
British Open Golf Championship
last month, decided to take part in
some exhibition games over there.
At the same time he expressed the
hope that such affairs wouldn't
keep him in England too long.
* * *
"There's a lot of sugar over in
the United States," the rather cock-
sure South African is reported to
have said, "and I certainly hope to
get back there by Fall."
* 5
But right now it looks as though
Bobby could take a slow freight in-
stead of a fast plane across the
Atlantic, and still not do his bank-
roll any too much harm• Alleging
chat Locke had been guilty of with-
drawing from "numerous" events
in the United States after commit-
ting himself to participate, Bobby,
was ruled ineligible for any future
tournament sponsored by the Na-
tional Professional Golfers Associa-
tion. And that means practically
every United States tournament
worth Locke spending time over.
* * *
Now it is no intention of ours to
get out the crying -towels over Mr.
Locke's plight. We gave up attend-
ing golf tourneys as soon as we saw
them developing into one of the
most over -publicized rackets in
sport, and that's quite some years
ago. And we understand, from
those who have been snore or less
closely associated with him, that
Mr. Locke is—well, somewhat hard °
to take. "Bobby Locke's all right,"
was the way one golfer of our ac-
quaintance expressed it, "if you
bappen to like Bobby Locke."
* * *
Still, to give everybody his due,
we don't think that the National
Professional Golfers Association of
the United States comes out of the
affair with flying colors exactly. In
fact, to us the whole thing has a
Sather smelly atmosphere. The nub
of the matter lies in the statement
that, since he first started paying
viaits to "God's country" back in
1947, Bobby Locke has packed
away "sugar" to the amount of
$50,712.
* * *
if that figure had been five
grand, Instead of fifty, do you
itnagine that those great sportsmen,
the American pros, would have
been so ready and anxious to bar
Hs further entries? If you do—well,
go right up to the head of the class
as one of the world's great be-
lievers,
* * *
Just what the harness -horse
game has developed into during
recent years is seen in some facts
end figures regarding the recent
meet at Westbury, N.Y. in which
GRATTAN McKLYO stepped
two miles in the record-breaking
time of 4,16 and 4/5ths—which fs
some stepping, at that. And when
you read those facts and figures,
you won't wonder why Canadian
Thoroughbred racing men shudder
every time somebody mentions

opening a big-time harness track=
with night racing—on this side of
the Border,
* * *
The crowd that watched GRAT-
TAN leleKLYO pace his two miles
numbered 29,619 — and they wag-
ered, during that one evening over
a million dollars — $1,076,601 to be
exact. That is a lot of people, and a
heap of money, and you can bet all
the tea in Ohine, plus all the coffee
in Brazil, that a lot of Canadian
sports promoters are studying them
long, longingly, and with intent to
act. * * *
They have mutuels instead of
book•, on these modern American
tracks, of course; and the winner—
highly favored by the crowd—paid
his backers $6.80; $5.10; and $3.60
across the board. (With the books,
We imagine he'd have been about
2 to 5, out, out). The second horse,
$19.90 and $10.10; while ROYAL
MAN, finishing in the third slot,
paid $3.20 for show, coupled with
two others as an entry,
* * *
Canadian horses didn't do so
well. DR. STRATTON — which
went to the post favorite in the
same'event a year ago — did a lot
of pacing in the first mile but ap-
parently ran out of gas after that.
With his veteran owner, 'Lindy"
Fraser of Forest, Ont., in the
driver's seat, DR. STANTON
stopped to a walk and eventually
wound up fifteenth.
*
Only one other Canadian side-
wheeler faced the starter. That was
STEWART DIRECT from Hugh
Stewae,t's Peterborough, Ontario
stables. He gave a most creditable
performance, finishing fifth—which,
in a bulky field of that kind, isn't
d4in•g so badly after all.
* * *
Finally, lest some of you might
think that big-time harness racing
calla for a mile or better track, we
might say that Roosevelt Raceway
to only a half -mile affair. That is to
say, the horses in the Nassau two-
mile pace had to travel four -times -
around the racing strip, which
makes GRATTAN McKLYO'S
performance. snore noteworthy.

PALESTINE
Some fourteen months ago Count
Folke Bernadotte of Sweden said
that the chances of restoring peace
between the Arabs and the Israelis
were about 100 to 1. In the interim
ten administrators and soldiers in
'the service of the United Nation,
died violently in the ettefnpt.'
But the "long shot" seems to
have come off. Just recently Berns- •
dotte's aueceseor—Acting Meriator
Ralph J. Bundle—was able to re-
port to the Security Council' that
"The mission of the Mediator has
been fufilled."
This was Bunche's final Palestine
report. With armistices arranged
betweete.the Arab States and Israel
covering the entire fighting front.
he said that the job of negotiating
a definite peace settlement should
be left to the three-power—(France,
Turkey, the United States)—Con-
'ciliation Commission at Lausanne
in Switzerland.
The commission's talk with Jews
and Aruba had bogged down last
June over the question of returning
to Israel the six or seven hundred
.thousand Arab refugees put to
flight by the war. But under prod-
ding by the United States, Israeli
negotiators recently returned to
Lausanne prepared to make a
definite offer aimed at breaking the
jam — the acceptance of some one
hundred thousand of the refugees
du return for the Arab States' ac-
ceptance of a final and definite
peace treaty.
. GERMANY'
As chaplains read out the names
of 39 British and 31 American fliers
who had lost their lives in the great
Allied airlift to Berlin, the strains
of "The Last ',Post" and "Taps"
floated across the airfield at Fats -
berg, in the British zone of Ger-
many. This Allied memorial service
marked the beginning of the end
of the unique operation.
Since the end of the Russian
blodcade last May stockpiles of
food, gasoline and coal in the Ger-
man capital have grown to nearly
one million tons, and are becoming
too large to handle. So the 30,000
British and Americans who were
operating more than 300 airlift
planes are being gradually rede-
ployed. By the end of October lees
than half the original number of
transport planes will remain in
Germany.
Just for the accord: since jun*
26, 1948 those Hires carried some
2,220,000 tons of supplies on nearly
275,000 flights totalling over a hun-
dred million flying miles. One one
day alone — last April 16 — they
flew in 13,000 tons. •
But there's always a drawback, it
seems. In Berlin, the discharge of
thousands of freight handlers will
add to an already serious unemploy-
ment problem. And those Berliners
who remain deep in the Russian
zone of the city are likely to miss
the familiar, reassuring sound of
those friendly airplane engines
sounding front above.
GREAT BRITAIN
Were the 'good old days' really
so good, after all? was the question
brought to many British minds
when Prime Minister Clement Att-
lee raked over some between -wars
history in an electioneering speech
toward the end of July. In it Attlee
flung at the Conservatives Winston
Churchill's recent blast at the "dis-
astrous rule" of the Labor Party.
"How disgraceful it is to try
and make people believe all our
difficulties are due to Socialist mis-
management," Then he quoted the
Conservative Party Chairman, Lord
Woolton, as having admitted that,
before the war, "not less than 25
per cent were suffering from mal-
nutrition—or improper feeding,"
and that between 1922 and 1939
Britain had an average of 1,700,000
unemployed.
"As for Mr. Churchill, I have
never been slow to acknowledge his
war service, 'but during the past
four years he has had a bad relapse
into irresponsibility and party
spite," quoth Mr. Attlee.

frightening new responsibilities. As
one Tokyo newspaper put ft, "The
series of violent outbreaks in recent
months' east a dark shadow."
The most threatening of these
outbreaks were organized by pris-
oners df war returning from Russia
in the repatriation of what the Sov-
iets
owiett elaim are their last 95,000
Japanese prisoners -of -war, Thor-
oughly indoctrinated Communists
by now, they rioted on the docks,
staged sit-down strikes, and even
dragged one captain before a "peo-
ples' court" on board his own ship.
Japanese famiiles who had been
urging repatriation for the past
three years naturally expected to
find some Communistic tendencies
among those returning to their
native land; but now they are horri-
fied to find that these included utter
contempt for traditional personale
and family relationships. The full
meaning of Communism is now
dawning on these "remain -at -
homes."
There are some authorities who
believe that the repatriates will turn
out to be a smaller and a less effec-
tive red weapon than either the
police or the Japanese communists
had anticipated. But most of the
really responsible Japanese' fear
that these repatriations—coinciding
as they do with Communist suc-
cesses in China—mark the opening
of an all-out Russian program for
the complete communization of
Japan.
