Feb.9.\u2014(Æ^-'-He was mentioned often as a possible purchaser of New York Yankees, and he\u2019s still mentioned as the possible next commissioner of baseball, but James A.Farley basically is just a fan, his interest in the game not depending on any official capacity connected with it.He might even be called the No.1 fan, as there probably is no other national figure approaching his prominence

This interest, he explained, dates back to the days when he was a tall, lanky first baseman with the Haver-straw and Grassy Point, N.Y., semi-pro teams, \u201cand pretty good hitter, too, about .300.\u201d He\u2019s still tall, but no longer angular and his shock of dark hair has vanished.The big fellow\u2019s regular attendance at major league games dates back before his arrival in New York to make his home in 1929.The first game he remembers \u201cwas one around 1904 or 1905, when the Red Sox beat out the Yankees for the pennant.\u201d He insists he\u2019s not partial to either the Yankees or Giants, though, \u201cJust a New York fan,\u201d he explains.Farley, whose faculty for remembering names is almost legendary, now is an executive with a soi drink concern \u2014 he never touchB hard stuff in any form, nor smokes \u2014and as such is a very busy man.So busy, in fact, that his ability to keep up with the happenings of the day in baseball seems remarkable.Although he frankly admits he would have liked to have purchased the Yankees, he laughs off the mention of his possibile selection as successor to K.M.Landis as commissioner.\u201cNobody has approached me about

composer, Marcel Grandjeny, which were perform ed with marked finesse.Terminating the evening\u2019s programme, Miss Blane played Sal-zedo\u2019s \u201cVariations on a Theme in the Ancient

MEET AGAIN The general tenor of German broadcasts and press statements indicates that the Nazis are expecting little good to emerge for them from the present Big Three Conference of Prime Minister Churchill, President Roosevelt and Marshal Stalin now underway somewhere in the Black Sea region.And they have little reason to expect anything favorable, as the military sections of the talks are undoubtedly devoted to the means of speeding up the annihilation1 of Germany from a military point of view, At the present time the Russians on the East and the Allied air forces from the West are doing a pretty fair job of bringing this condition about, but it is highly probable that the Big Three will prepare plans for the even closer co-ordination of their forces for the intensifying- of the warfare on the Western and Italian fronts.And from the long-range political point of view there can be little of comfort for the hard-pressed German leaders, for the statement on the progress of the conference emphasized that one of the matters now being discussed was the preparation of joint' plans for the occupation and control of Germany, a clear indication that the United Nations are determined that the Reich will be rendered impotent to wage another war for many years to come, Britain and Russia have bitter memories of the a.etions and policies of the Germans and there is every indication that hard realism has replaced idealism and doctrines among the hard-boiled officials in the foreign offices of the two countries.Russia can only remember with feelings of hatred the awful atrocities committed on its soil and against its people by the Nazis, while the British Isles have the memories of the blitz, the robot and the rochet bombs.Thus they will insist on a system that will guarantee peace for large and small nations alike, being thoroughly fed up with line phrases.They remember j that after the last war, the British Government foU lowed the United States all down the road, from Wilson's fourteen points for small nations, naval disarmament and the Kellogg Peace Pact.That road led to Munich and Dunkirk.This time the Britons say \"No\" and seek that certain peace which can only he assured by practical means\u2014in other w-ords they: see that force is necessary to any lasting security.I GERMAN LABOR GANGS One proposal which is said to have received the strong support of the British Government is that after the conclusion of hostilities the Germans be organized into labor battalions and used for the reconstruction of devastated countries, The whole idea has much to recommend it, both from an economic and sentimental point of view.Certainly there could be little that would give such satisfaction to the people of the once-oppressed countries to see the once-mighty German supermen engaged in such menial tasks as removing the debris and digging for water mains in such cities as Amsterdam and Warsaw.Even more irony would be given the situation if these labor battalions were; placed under the command of residents of the coun-try in which they were working.Perhaps it might be possible to ensure that the officers in charge the German gioups be former inmates of concentration camps or men who have been deported from their homeland to work as slaves in German factories.A strong material and economic case can be made for the suggestion.It will take many, many years to restore Europe to a semblance of normalcy after the German depradations.Millions of men, and days must be spent in reconstructing houses and other dwellings for the people before any of these nations can hope to resurrect their industrial! and economic facilities.It would be only justice! that Germany be made to pay this cost.But the post-; war Germany will be a poor nation and it is the aim of most European countries that she remain too poor to gc on another rampage.Thus she will be unable to make good financially the losses she has caused.But she can provide a substantial portion of the manpower required for these tasks.Under the! plan advanced, every able-bodied German would be conscripted into these labor battalions and after enough had been set aside to maintain the bare economic needs of a defeated nation, the rest would be despatched to where the greatest amount of work was required.There might be some soft-hearted objections that it is impossible to enslave a people.But it must be remembered that the German people gave their support to Hitler largely because he promised to enslave the world and they were more and more enthusiastic as he came nearer and nearer achieving his objective, Now they must be prepared to pay the price.\u2014 WHY RUSSIA WANTS PEACE One thing that many of the people who are predicting that Russia will prove a troublesome member of the United Nations in the days following the war forget is that it is a country of tremendous natural resources, which can be developed properly only through an extended period of peace.And to this end, it is probable that Russia may find it expedient to join in any drive to eliminate Japan as a troublemaker after Germany is disposed of.Illustrative of the extent of the country is the report that the Russians are making experiments with the growing of grapefruit, which may be a surprise tc those who believe that it is a land of cold and frost.As a matter of fact Russia has an area of more than eight million square miles and the vast surface has belts of widely varying temperatures.In the north of Russia there is intense winter cold.The port of Murmansk is north of the Arctic Circle.On the great inland plains of both European Russia and Siberia there are sharp extremes of climate.In winter there are freezing winds and heavy snows on the inland central plains, There is a projection of Russia, however, that runs deep into the southland.Probably it is there that the grapefruit experiments arc being made, Lenkoran, which is about the furthest south town, is virtually in the same latitude as Athens and the tip of the toe of Italy, the land of the olives groves.Lenkoran is farther south than Valencia in Spain where the oranges grow.In fact the southern tip of Russia is well below the fortieth degree of latitude.With such a vast country and with such varying degrees of climate Russia certainly is destined for great development.There are illimitable acres for the production of grain and herds.There are forests and there are mineral bearing- regions.It is a country wide enough to give full scope to all the energies of the Russian people without them hunting for additional territory, But to develop their country and make it the land they hope it will become, they cannot be continually disturbed by warlike neighbors.Tims they are anxious for the complete defeat of Germany and may hold the same views toward Japan.'VE VILL FIGHT ON TO DER FINISH!'- £ iÈÈfâp/i ¦¦ ¦ - ISfel y\\< y r ML m 1 Ifi .w inci\tÏ& PRESS COMMENTS GERMAN REORGANIZATION Although a certain degree of interest can be displayed m reports emanating from Germany that a general reorganization of the Goevrnment may take place as a prelude to dilect peace overtures, it would be unwise to place either toe much credence or too much interest in these stories.According to these reports, Hitler will relinquish his dictatorship and will become President, while Franz von Papeu will become Chancellor.In any evaluation of the German situation it must be remembered that the key men in the governmental machine are willing- to make any move required to maintain their power, even if it means casting themselves into minor roles or disappearing from the picture completely, leaving the administration of the country to stooges, who will take their orders from the underground.But the report that Franz von Papen will head the new government makes it decidedly unacceptable tc the United Nations who have many unpleasant memories of this shrewd but unprincipled diplomat, who has been involved in every piece of deviltry perpetrated by Germany during the past thirty-five years.It was he who organized the reign of sabotage which affected United States industry during the First Great War and was highlighted by the famous Black Tom explosion.He was the man who sold out his former Chancellor to come onto Hitler's bandwagon and it was to von Papen that Hitler entrusted the work of bringing the Balkans into line and in lining Turkey up against the United Nations.Similarly other members of the proposed government, Dr.Hjalmar Schacht and Field Marshal Walther von Brauchitsch have unsavory reputations as far as the Allies are concerned and it would not be surprising- if any overtures they might advance will be promptly rejected.CANADA STILL HAS THAT LURE Fort William Times-Journal Canada still has the conditions, resources and scope that make an appeal to immigrants from Euro-' pean countries.In the first years of the present century many thousands of immigrants came to Can-.ada from Europe and a very large I number of them prospered.Those who came, not as sects, but as individuals proved to be particularly good settlers and long since they , have become assimilated into the ! general population.Some of these I original settlers still may have difficulty in speaking fluent English rout the younger generation only can j be distinguished by their names I from the English-speaking people of the country.| For a number of years now there i has been little immigration into Canada and the man or woman who docs not speak the common language of the country is becoming more and more rare.This especially is true where the immigrants of years ago settled individually and without ties and restrictions imposed by sectarian faith.Such groups as the Doukho-bovs have been difficult to assimilate.They have kept their own ways, have clung- to their own language and customs and their settlement in this country cannot be regarded as a success.In the old days, when every train brought in throngs of new settlers from Central Europe, the newcomers spoke a strange jargon of tongues.There were men and families from Galicia, Ukrainia, Poland.Hungary and other countries.Most of these settlers worked hard and were thrifty.They made homes and they have been absorbed into the national citizenry.Those who were young when they arrived or who were born here now hardly can be distinguished from Canadians of British stock.Those immigrants of the early years of the century found Canada to be a land where they could build homes and where they could enjoy equal rights as citizens.They found it a land, of promise, in which tire promise could be realized by the industrious and the thrifty.It is gratifying to know that Canada still is the Canada of old as far as immigrants are concerned and that if and when the day arrives when the gates again will be opened the newcomers will find a country where they can live happily and prosperously.When Canada opened the doors of the country and the farmlands of Northwestern Saskatchewan and Alberta to refugees from Czechoslova-Ikia and Sudetenland five years ago rihe got something of a bargain, Ken Liddell writes in the February issue of Canadian Business.To confirm his statement Mr.Liddell traces the lives of the 1,000 sucli refugees who reached Canada before war interrupted further immigration.At St, Walburg, Sask., for example, 147 families and 34 single men settled on the land.Today, five years later, 97 of these families are still operating their farms and making them pay.Six disposed of then-land and took jobs in the cities, and the remainder have rented their farms and are now working in war plants.Some of the men who left returned to their own professions, one as a newspaper editor, another as a doctor.Of the single men, five are still on the land, 20 have enlisted in the armed forces and the balance have entered business or war industry.When the refugees came to Canada it was anticipated that ninety per cent would wish to return to Europe after the war.Now few, if any.show that desire and most are seeking Canadian citizenship, AN EVIL EXAMPLE Winnipeg Free Press The Alberta Government is evidently eager to reach an understanding with the bondholders so that its credit may be restored, so that it may bo able to borrow money pubiidy in the post-war era, when such borrowings may prove essential.There can be no restoration of Alberta's credit, of course, until it outlives the stigma of repudiation and starts afresh by agreement with its creditors.Ironically enough, while Alberta is emerging from the dizzy experiment of Social Credit (which finally consisted of nothing but robbery of the bondholders) Saskatchewan, next door, is in the first stages of an experiment yet more dizzy, in provincial socialism, and already its credit has been largely underminded.The province can borrow only from its

could see that he might lose a spade, a club and two hearts if he elected that line of play, so instead he cashed the king of hearts and led a small heart over to his ace.The ten of clubs was then played and when West refused to cover, the finesse was taken.Now the deuce of clubs picked up the jack and established the clubs, on the five of clubs.Captain Berry discarded the three of spades.West trumped with the jack of hearts and then led the king of spades, which \u2018Berry won.The three of diamonds mond was ruffed, thus giving the de ' clarer five odd.\tA A 9 8 7 5 V K 5 4 ?Void A A K 9 5

markers last night to pace Coach Ivan Du-gre\u2019s Sherbrooke Indians to an 8-t! triumph over the Windsor Mills Paper Makers in a fast-hard-hitting E.T.Intermediate Hockey League game at the Arena last night before some 1,(HX) fans.Also contributing towards the Sherbrooke victory was young Nor-mie Dassault, Sherbrooke speed merchant, who had a great night as he banged home two markens and drew four aswistis for a six-point total.The win la^t night enabled the Indians to remain three points behind the Victoriaville Tigers, now leading the league, and give the Dugremen still a slim chance to wind up on top at the end of the schedule.The Tigers and the Indians will clash here Saturday ni-ght at the Arena with game time scheduled for 8.15 o\u2019clock.Gilles Dube, flashy \u201c.Kid Line\u201d centreman, was also in the limelight last evening as he rammed in two markers and picked up two assists.The seventh Sherbrooke marker ¦went lo Ivan Boisvert, Indians\u2019 defenceman.Jean Paul \u201cMoose\u201d Ranger broke into the assist column last night as he engineerd two plays which resulted in Letarte\u2019s last two goal;.Harry Allen also was credited with one assist, setting up Boisvert for his tally.Outstanding for the Paper Makers was little Bobby Morey who tallied two of the three Windsor Mills markers.The little centreman played a rugged game throughout and was a constant threat to the Indians.The third Windsor goal was chalked up by Normie Burns, who thus brought his scoring race point total to 33, far ahead of his nearest rival, Johnny Poulin, of the Tigers, who has 28.First period score stood at 2-0 for the Indians and was increased to 5-8 by the end of the second.Three more tallies in the final frame brought the score to 8-3 when the last whistle blew.At one time in the game, the \"Windsor Mills men were making ser- ToW.q iou- threats to the Sherbrooke lead, \u2022 J1 V., f bringing the count to 4-8 m the, Burng.centre second period on two

goals which brought the Paper Makers to within one point of the Indians\u2019 lead, Morey tallied first, picking up a lose puck at the red line to blast a dead-on, close-in shot past Dior, while Allen was off.At the 10.2t) mark, Normie Burns knocked down the puck as Emile Letarte tried bo ice the disc and fired a ehot into the net from five feet out.The Paper Makers) then put on a desperate spurt in an effort to score the equalizer but a goal by Gilles Dube at 19.12 spoiled their chances of making a real fight out of the game.Dussault set the stage for the goal as he picked up the rebound off his own slapshot and flipped the puck to Dube w\" backhanded i the Windsor cage.Hostilités resumed in the third frame and Sherbrooke pressure wh:' VLkuske was serving a penalty for crosschecking finally res ed in a goal.From a face-off in the corner, Ivan Boisvert took Harry Allen\u2019s pass to drill a low shot from the blue line which sizzled through Duseault\u2019s legs to give the Indians a 6-3 lead.The final two Sherbrooke mark-came in an identical manner and were made possible through a penalty to Normie Burns for crosschecking\u2019.Going off at 9.52, Burns saw Emile Letarte bang in two quick goals at 10.46 and 10.55, both on passes from Moose Ranger.Norm Dussault also assisted on the second tally.From the face-off the puck went out to Ranger who drilled it to Letarte, standing uncovered in front of the Windsor net.Letarte made no mistake as he drilled it home.Ten seconds later, the play was repeated and Letarte again made sure of gaining his hat trick as lie feinted Dussault out of position to drill the disc into the lower right-hand corner of the cage.The teams: Windsor\tIndians Dussault.goal.Dion .Boisvert .Leroux .Allen P.Bergeron ______ Dube University

the citadel for Sherbrooke, turned in an outstanding performance in the Sherbrooke nets and was called upon lo make a series of difficult stops when the Indians found themselves, through penalties, short handed.The game opened with a bang and both squads went all out for the first goal.Entry in the period, Bus Mc-Lenuhan and Harry Allen collided and both were forced to leave the ice.Alien returned but McLenana was, not seen again for the rest of the \"-ame.It is thought that he may have suffered a fracture of the nose again.Finally at HI.40 the Indians went ahead 1-0 on a goal by Emile Letarte.Taking a passout from behind the net, Dube slammed the puck at Letarte who backhanded the disc past Dussault, the Windsor ?goalie.Th:ce minutes later, the trio again participated in a passing play which saw Dube grab off the honors, converting Letarte\u2019; perfect relay into a sizzling goal.Almost from the face-off of the second period, Normie Dussault, picking up Emile Letarte\u2019s

Students\u2019Meet.The cream of Sherbrooke\u2019s ' crop of \u2019teen age skiers will be out competing in the various classes and some top-notch skiing is expected to be displayed by the youngsters.Gerard Proulx, in charge of registration for (he meet, stated today that over 100 entries have been received in the three classes for the boys while some 50 girl entrants have made application lor the events.He announced, however, that the total will probably swell to nearly 250 for botli classes by the time final registrations are in.Skiing has become very popular in the city in the last few years and meets sponsored by the Hillcrest Ski Club have had much to do with the , ater interest taken in the winter sport hy the youth of Sherbrooke.The spotlight Sunday will centre around Class \u201cA\u201d of the boys\u2019 meet.Last year\u2019s champion, Royal Stewart, who is now attending Bishop\u2019s University, will not he competing, hut several other skiers, including his brother Robin, winner of Class \"B\u201d last year, are up in the top bracket now and are expected to equal, if not better.Royal\u2019s time set in 1944.A man to watch in Class \u201cA\u201d will be Maurice Dufault, who grabbed off second place in the events last season.Dufault, who was competing under independent colors, is a heavy favorite to cop the.honors in the meet Sunday.Another top local skier, greatly improved over last year, is young Gordon Harmer, of the Sherbrooke High.Small of stature but a whiz on skies.Manner will bear plenty of watching, for his winning of first-place honors in Class \u201cB\u201d of the Hill-crest closed meet at Eustis last Sunday brands him as a definite threat to the title at stake in the events on the v, k-end.A breakdown of the figures supplied hy Registrar Gerard Proulx shows that, so far, 11 boys are entered in Class \u201cA\u201d competition.Four of the eleven are from the Sherbrooke High School.Class \u2018B\u201d has forty contestants and more are expected before th meet starts.Th greatest number of competitors is registered in Class \u201cC,\u201d the 8-to-12-year-old group.The tots will be out in force for the events and ,\\e idea of the progress being made by the children will be gained from the\" performances.GIRLS\u2019 EVENTS To date, 52 girls have applied for entry in the events but of this number only two are entered in Class \u201cA,\u201d Gertrud'' Roberge and Pat McCrea.of S.H.S.However, the number is expected to be greater when meat-time rolls around and good competition will be seen.Class \u201cB\u201d has some twenty girls registered while over 30 wee lassies are to compete in Class \u201cC.\u201d All girls\u2019 events are to be run off at Brault\u2019s Farm tomorrow afternoon while the boy will hold their events on Sunday.Generous prizes donated by several local business firms and citizens have made competition in the Students\u2019 Meet more attractive to the pupils of the local schcols.The adults of the city seem to be one hundred per cent behind the youngsters and are giving them the fullest support possible.INCIDENTALLY Q.A.H.A.Vice-President Gene Lalondc announced
