...helped eclipse the Rangers famed first-string forwards (Frank Boucher and the Cook brothers. Bill & Bun). Almost as surprising as the performance of Dillon last week was the work of the Rangers' youthful, mop-haired, talkative goaltender, Andy Aitkenhead. A recruit this year, replacing convivial John Ross Roach, he had stopped all but nine of 137 shots in five games. To defend their championship the Maple Leafs had a crack team of seasoned players. Charlie Conacher, 23-year-old forward, seemed to have ended his career three years ago when he had to have a kidney removed. He plays...

By specific orders no banks or newspapers were picketed or postered but almost every Jewish-owned shop in Germany received both attentions. There was little violence. The New York Evening Post's Correspondent Albion Ross was punched on the back of the neck for attempting to enter a Jewish store (other U. S. correspondents were not molested).

The party, he tells them in a forceful farewell address, is over...
Slowly the drama developed. The Prisoner was Norman Baillie-Stewart, 24, a lieutenant in the aristocratic Seaforth Highlanders, a regiment still known north of the Tweed as the Ross-shire Buffs, whose Colonel-in-Chief is Edward of Wales (see cut). As a cadet at Sandhurst Lieut. Baillie-Stewart became still more intimate with the Royal Family by serving as orderly to Prince Henry, third son of George V. The charge against him was selling military secrets to a foreign power. Last week his court martial commenced...
