Died. Sir Hildebrand Aubrey Harmsworth, 57, of London, British journalist (New Liberal Review, The Globe), brother of famed British journalists Lord Rothermere (Harold Sidney Harmsworth) and the late Lord Northcliffe (Alfred Charles William Harmsworth) ; in London...
Frank Maurrant, belligerently righteous stagehand, appears. He is the type that lives with his lower teeth bared. Filippo Fiorentino, music teacher, appears, bearing ice cream cones for everybody. Mrs. Hildebrand and tots appear in time to be caught by a social service worker as they come from the movies: they have been living on charity since Mr. Hildebrand ran off with another woman.

The record of the sort of thing that all suppressed adventurers dream about whenever they pass the window of Thomas Cook & Son, and only the lucky and courageous few dare translate into reality. Blue water, grey water, storms and calms, the Balearic Isles, Lisbon, Gibraltar, Cartagena, Alicante, Civita Vecchia, Athens, Constantinople and its bubble-domed mosques, the men that go down to the sea in sailing...
