The traditional place of the pub- lic house in English life has been strengthened through the centuries. Through the trying war years all classes found welcome relief from strain in 'the friendly atmosphere of these popular community meet- ing places. It is small wonder that Canadians were deeply im- pressed by what they saw of this phase of English life. So deep was that impression that there is a growing sentiment among re- turned men favoring the establish- ment of a similar system in Can- ada; one which would foster that normal atmosphere of sociability and emulate the companionable spirit of the pub. Those who seek reform through the encouragement of true tem- perance in drinking undoubtedly would welcome the introduction of community meeting places where beer is served as an adjunct to food and healthful recreational ac- tivities, Growth in this sentiment is re- flected in the number of news stories relative to the English pub- lic house which have appeared in the past few weeks in Canadian newspapers. One of these, date- lined Bilston, Fungland, told of the unveiling of a memorial plaque in a local pub, honoring customers who had lost their lives in the war, Rev. N. Keen, the local rec- tor, speaking at the. ceremony, re- marked that too many young pcople thought - the church and the pub were hostile institutions, while ac- tually the church had much to learn about good-heartedness from the public house. Malta Damage It will cost about $104,000,000 to make good the war damage 'on Malta -- most-bombed part of the British Empire -- according to Sir Wilfred Woods in a financial sur- vey of the "island.

SPOTS OF SPORTS By FRANK MANN HARRIS > ("A Six Bit Critic") ag aa No doubt you're heard of binks, they uy who not si. long ago in- venfed the sensational new system fcr playing the races, and startea in to make a terrific clean-up at the tracks. Well, it's Binks' wife that's making the clean-up now She's going out scrubbing. « * * Baseball players are talking about forming a Union, and hockey players are whispering of doing the same thing. If this kind of thing goes on, pretty soon it will be unanimous--(we almost said Union-animous but mercifu'ly re- frained)--with all our movements, from the cradle to the grave, care- fully orgaiized, codified, and re- gulated. But there's one bright spot in tue picture, at least, In sport, there is no necessity of forming anything like a Consum- ers' Union, for the reason that we ultimate consumers of sport can always refrain fron. prrehasing the product, if we don't ike the qual- ity, which is more than can be said in the case of food, fuel, transport- ation and other necessities, * * * Which reminds us of just about the sorest sports magnate we ever beheld--which is saying quite a lot. This particular magnate had just taken over control of a certain team--(in just what branch of sport we decline to state)--and had made the grand and con- descending gesture of calling in all the local sports' writers, -all- that were oun of pokey that is, and ask- ing their advice on how to run the team and increase its popularity and gate receipts, « * * "I want to do something new, something big, sometning that will "get the team talked about," s:id Mr. Magnate. "Can't any of you fellows think of some sensational stunt we can work, something that's never been pulled before?" * * * "I know something that's been been very successful in a lot of Seagram Gold Cup Bes i Top-flight Canadian and U.S. golfers will tee off at Beaconsfield, Quebec, late in June in quest of the Seagram gold cup and the Canadian Open Championship. Unlike the S'nley Cup -- "bat- tered old mug" of professional hockey --, the Seagram gold cup has to all appearances led an ex- emplary life. Each year it goes into the custody of the club of the year's winner, and the winner him- self, gets a replica for his perman- "ent possession, As things have worked out, that means that the Gold Cup has spent most of its life on exhibition. in U.S. clubs, for only American golfers have won it as yet, For the past year the Gold Cup has been in the possession af, the Toledo Golf Club, where hio's Byron Nelson took it after sjoot- ing a winning 280. The Seagram Gold Cup wad pre- sented to the ,C.G.A. in 1936 by J. [Frowde Seagram of Waterloo, Ont., as the Canadian Open Cham- pionship Trophy.- Sam Snead, who hails from Hot Springs, Va., has won the Gold Cup three times -- only man to win it more than once. Lawson Little, Jug McSpaden, Harry Cooper, Craig Wood and Nelson have cach won it once. % b other lines, but I don't think it's ever been tried in sport," remarked one writer, at the same time grab- bed a double handful of the free Ivnch and seeing that his path to tl:e exit was clear. The magnate demanded further clucidation. "Well," said the writer, "why don't you prin in all your adverusing and on the back of all your tickets just seven simple words--SATIS- FACTION GUARANTEED OR YOUR MONEY CHEERFUL- LY REFUNDED", * * * As we hinted before, the mag- nate did not scem to appreciate this beautiful sugges.'on, but got hot enough 10 fry an egy. How- ever, this seems to be the more or less normal condition of many of the elite of sport--cxcept when the team is winning and scllouts the rule--so probably hardly worth mentioning. However, if--during the process of universal unionisa- tion--they ever form a Managers and CoAches Union, there is one bisic rule which we sincerely hope and 'rust they will adopt. + * * This will be a rule something to the following effect; that if, during the progress of a game or contest, any 'higher-up' shall publicly butt in on and interfere with the duties of the Manager or Coach, said 'higher-up' shall immediately ren- der himself lable to a nice solid sock in the jaw, no matter whether he be Owner, President, Principal Stockhcider, or whatever. And we don't think it necessary to go into further details, as the practise of hiring a Manager or Coach sup- posedly to run the team, building him up as a great expert, and then when things go wrong publicly treating him as a triple-ply moron has become 'far too common and widespread to need any T-crossing or [-dotting. + * * But we can say that the spec- tacle some of these front-office ex- hibitionists insist on making of themselves at times is one that a lot of the cash customers are rapid- ly getting very tired of wit _ssing. *® * * We thought maybe you would be interested in hearing abbut a cer- tain lady of our acquaintance--a lady who is « conswant deplorer. She deplores such things as comic strips, © -ensational movies, and a whole lot of other matters which she feels have ¢ baaefur influence on the manners and morals of the youth of our fair lana. * * * So last Sunday afternoon she came home from some uplift meet- ing or other, and was somewhat surprised to find her youthful son sitting entranced before the radio, he not being the kind that goes in greatly for Symphony music or other such-like radio fare. "What are you listening to?" inquired the fond motker, - * « * "I's a play," replied the lad. "It's just finished and, say, mother, it was about the hottest I've ever heard. This guy the hero nrurders his brother and is best friend, has his two little nephews smothered to death, and double-crosses pretty near ecverybody he meets. Gee, mother, he was a real go-getter!" * * * naturally the lady was aghast at such tidings, "It's a shame--it's reaily criminal," she cried, "and I'm going to have our Women's Club send a petition to Ottawa acking no, demanding-- that an immediate .top be put to these disgraceful gangster dramas heing heard on the air. The very idea of such a thing--especially on a Sunday. Tell me, my boy, what was the name of this horrid, blood- thirsty, degrading thing?" -. * LJ Quite But she was somewhat taken aback when the youth made answer --"You know, mom, the one they've been talking about so much RICHARD TH . THIRD, by Shakespeare." Britain Gets Lead In Auto Industry Export of Autos and Trucks Tripled--U.S. Production Slowed by Strikes . Britain's automobile and truck exports, doubled and trebled since the end of the war, are leaping a- head of thosc of the United States while that country's gigantic indus- try is slowed down by major strikes, according to the Londom Daily Mail. "Figures reached a new record in April, when 11,122 cars and 11,410 commercial vehicles were sent over-seas," the rewspapeér réporied. The article quoted statistics showing that Britain's total ex- ports were tripled in the first three n:onths of 1946. "American manufacturers expect Britain to export 250,000 cars this year, a monthly ave.age of over 20,000. This is compared with the estimated United States exports of a 12-month 75,000 vehicles over period." The paper quoted "a leading American exporter" as saying: "Most British industrialists are really putting their backs into the export effort, There is room for an impiense volume: of both British and American goods iu the world today, but te British have certain- ly got ahead first." Some To Chicago Chicago residents who would have to wait a year for an Amer- ican model, are buying British cars, the article contirtied. Less than 100,000 cars and trucks have heen built in the United States since last July. Some 90,000 could have been exported under the quota sys- tem. "With all the immediate signs of a British advantage, experts warn against overconfidence. One American industrialist at least es- timate: that the whole mass pro- duction machinery could he work- ing at full pitch within 60 days of a return to normal conditions. "Other estimates are that, once the major stitkes are over, Amer- ica's vas. production resources will be at full pressure within a few months." HOLD EVERYTHING WHOLE WHE SovTHERN if "Ah! Vacation posters again!" Black 'Market In Meat Causes Insulin Shortage The country today is faced with a shortage of insulin and other pharmaceuticals prepared from meat animals, says the Milwaukee Journal. The reason is that a large part of our mecat supply is at pres ent being prepared by fly-by-night slaughterers, who use only the meat and throw away the by-pro- ducts. This is one of the serious ef- fects of the present black market in meat. It is not merely a matter of unduly high prices, but also of almost criminal waste of hides, fats, bones, glands and other ""in- cidentals"" of the inecat animal's car- cass. Unless the meat situation is brought back under control, we can cxpect not only a continuation of poor distribution and high prices for meat, but also a shortage of leather, soap, fertilizer and the various therapeutic substances de rived from animal sources: It Now Costs More To Retire -- Until a few years ago scores of thousands of Canadians could con- template sccure retirement on life savings of $10,000 to $20,000, says the Financial Post. A farmer could sell his farm, or a small merchant his store, invest the proceeds at 6 % and this income plus that from what he had already saved would allow hin to live in comfort the rest of his days. He can't do that now 4nd with interest rates still declining he will be in greater difficulties tomorrow. Twenty thousand dollars invested in good sccurities gave a man an income of about $100 per month before the war. To get the same income now requires an investment of $40,000.
