Field Marshal Sir Cyril John Deverell, 63, and four other elderly British generals called by request at the War Office in London last week, stepped one by one into the private office of Leslie Hore-Belisha and handed in their resignations. Almost immediately came word that 50 other general officers had been passed over to make way for new Chief of the Imperial General Staff Major General John Standish Surtees Prendergast Vereker Viscount Gort...
...young Englishmen have come to learn French in preparation for the ''diplomatic'' and to have their lives complicated by a predatory lass, lithely represented by Penelope Dudley Ward. The play is joyously, if inexpertly, served by the younger characters of its cast (Philip Friend, Cyril Raymond, Hubert Gregg, Jacqueline Porel), Veterans Frank Lawton and Marcel Vallee (M.

Designed by Golf Architect Donald Ross, who came to the U. S. from Scotland in 1899 and has since, on 350 links all over the U. S., reproduced as effectively as the land allowed the sweeping dunes of his native sea coast, Oakland Hills is notable for its raised, table-like greens. This feature tends to handicap players like Sarazen, who hit low-flying iron shots, favors bigger, stronger...
