# Leonard B. Smith

Leonard B. "Tuck" Smith (October 29, 1915 in Mayview, Missouri – May 16, 2006 in Friday Harbor, Washington) was an American pilot who spotted the German battleship Bismarck prior to its being sunk by British naval and air forces. Smith was the first American to participate in a World War II naval victory and is sometimes considered the first American to be directly involved in World War II for his actions.
A number of US pilots, who had ferried Catalinas across to the UK and were supposed to familiarize the RAF crews with the plane, were unofficially used as copilots on operations ("unofficially" because the USA was not at war with Germany at that time). Smith was acting as copilot of AH545 WQ-Z of No. 209 Squadron RAF which had been specifically assigned a search area after contact was lost with the Bismarck shortly after the Battle of the Denmark Strait. They flew out of RAF Castle Archdale which was a flying boat base on Lough Erne and through the Donegal Corridor. The plane was primarily piloted by British Flying Officer Dennis Briggs but Smith was at the controls when the battleship was spotted around at 10:10 on 26 May 1941, heading for Brest. He jettisoned the depth charges and made for cloud cover under heavy anti-aircraft fire, losing sight of the Bismarck and never regaining contact. Two other Americans were also in Catalinas that spotted the Bismarck later in the day: Lt Johnson in M of No. 240 Squadron RAF, and Ensign Rinehart in O of No. 210 Squadron RAF. Knowing the battleship's position accurately enabled the British navy to intercept it and sink it soon after.
Smith was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his role in the sinking of the Bismarck. He was later sent to Hawaii, and was flying a training mission between Midway and Pearl Harbor when the base was attacked on the morning of December 7, 1941. He remained in the Pacific Theatre for the remainder of the war, later fought in Korea and in the early stages of the Vietnam War, reached the rank of captain, and retired from the Navy in 1962, after 23 years on active duty. After his retirement from the Navy, he worked as real estate businessman. He lived in Friday Harbor on San Juan Island, Washington. He died in 2006 at the age of 90.
At one stage during his naval career Smith worked alongside Richard Nixon, whom he described as "one of the most conscientious and hard-working officers I ever met".

## Biography

He was a native of Cincinnati and worked there with Tietig & Lee in 1911 and was listed with The Allyn Co. in 1914.

Jackson, and Mrs. William Clay of Detroit in 1917 and 1918, as well as Henry Ford and his wife Clara. He was contracted to do the design work to house 3,500 Ford employees at "Fordson Village" until it was abandoned for the "much smaller" Molony site, with 12 house designs that were also by Willeke.

# Leopold Willem Ras

Leopold Willem Ras (1760s–1823) was a Dutch merchant-trader and diplomat.

## Life

Ras was the son of Joannes Henricus Ras and Magdalena Elisabeth Putkamer, who baptized children in Lillo (Antwerp) [nl; fr], a town at the mouth of the Scheldt river. In June 1785, Ras sailed from Fort Frederik-Hendrik Berendrecht [fr; nl] near his hometown as a ship's boy on board the Alblasserdam to work in East Asia with the Dutch East Indies Company (or Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie or VOC in Dutch). His father had apparently died before his departure, and until 1805 Ras sent payments home to his mother, Magdalena Elisabeth Putkamer.
Before 1798, Ras was sent to Japan as a records keeper/bookkeeper or warehouseman. At this point in Japanese history, the sole VOC outpost (or "factory") was situated on Dejima island in the harbor of Nagasaki on the southern island of Kyushu.
Ras became acting Opperhoofd or chief negotiant and officer of the VOC trading post. His role had to change after the death of Dejima's chief official, Gijsbert Hemmij. In 1798, Hemmij died at Kanegawa near Edo during the return journey to Nagasaki after a formal audience at the shogun's court in Edo.
The difficulties Ras confronted were exacerbated by a fire which destroyed the VOC warehouse and other structures on Dejima.
Ras resigned from his post on 30 June 1800. He married Christina Abigael Versteegh, with whom he had two daughters before 1815 on Banda Neira in the Moluccas. Ras died there 4 March 1823.

# The Iron Door Sessions

The Iron Door Sessions is a compilation live album by English rock band The Searchers. It contains acetate recordings of them performing at Iron Door Club in 1963, few months before their breakthrough in the UK. The Searchers re-recorded some of these tracks in the studio later and issued on their albums or singles (incl. hit versions of Sweets for My Sweet or "Ain't That Just Like Me"). Traditional Maggie May is the same song made famous by The Beatles.

## Overview

The Iron Door club (situated at 13 Temple Street, Liverpool) played the same role in the Searchers’ career as the Cavern Club did for The Beatles. It was a small music club in Liverpool managed by Les Ackerley, manager of the Searchers at the time, and it was the venue where their UK popularity started. Around January or February 1963, the Searchers taped here eleven songs from their current stage repertoire (without audience). The tape was then converted into a small number of acetates. Guitarist John McNally: "I can't remember how many copies of the acetate were made, although Les Ackerley obviously had a few to send to the record companies in London. I don't remember ever having one myself – it didn't seem important at the time." Tony Hatch, who worked as a producer and A&R man for Pye Records, was impressed enough to invite the band down to London for a test in Pye's recording studios on Marble Arch. There The Searchers recorded Sweets for My Sweet, which became their first single and the first No. 1 hit.

## Rerelease

It was believed, that these Iron Door acetate records were lost, but it turns out that the only surviving copy was in the private collection of Tony Jackson, singer and bass guitarist of the band. These were released on Castle Records (Sanctuary Records) CD in 2002.

# Perry Hill Stadium

Perry Hill Greyhound Stadium was a greyhound racing stadium in Catford, London.

## Origins

A small greyhound track existed off the east side of the Perry Hill Road (which goes north from Lower Sydenham towards Catford Bridge) at the end of Rubens Street.
In 1930 three fields made up the green space of the area, the African Banks Athletic Ground, the City of London School Athletic Ground and the Forest Hill Cricket Ground. One of these was described and was also known by locals as the 'Dog Field' and evidence points to the latter being the field in question.

## History

The track opened in the early 1930s and was originally independent (unaffiliated to a governing body). In 1933 Mr Herbert Blann the co-manager of the track and residing in Rubens Street appeared in court to answer the allegations of using live rabbits to train greyhounds at Perry Hill, Forest Hill Greyhound Track.
It is probable that the management changed due to the fact that the track became affiliated to the British Greyhound Tracks Control Society (BGTCS), an organisation formed to assist tracks wishing to race under regulations and a rival to the bigger National Greyhound Racing Club (NGRC). In addition the track had basic tote facilities which also means that there were buildings on site although not necessarily substantial brick ones.
The track was issued a betting licence in February 1935 but the BGTCS disbanded in 1935 leaving the stadium unaffiliated.

## Midget Cars

Midget car racing took place for the first time at the Perry Hill Stadium on 7 June 1935.

## Closure

Business was hit by the construction of the nearby Catford Stadium in 1932 which left Perry Hill in a precarious position. The stadium was wound up in November 1935 and the business went on public sale in December offering a significant package.
Today the site is the Catford and Cyphers Cricket Club Ground.

# Tin Ching Estate

Tin Ching Estate (Chinese: 天晴邨) is a public housing estate in Tin Shui Wai, New Territories, Hong Kong, near Light Rail Tin Yuet stop. It is divided into two phases and consists of seven residential buildings completed in 2008 and 2010 respectively.

## Background

The first and second phases of Tin Ching Estate were occupied on 10 July 2008, while the third phase was occupied on 1 April 2010. In particular, Blocks 1 and 2 (Ching Choi House, Ching Wan House) belong to the second phase, and Blocks 3 and 4 (Ching Pik House, Ching Hoi House) belong to the first phase.
Since the first and second phases in Area 103 were occupied at the same time, the third phase in Area 104 was occupied nearly two years later. Therefore, many people in the district mistakenly believed that the estate was divided into two phases. The first and second phases are the same as the first phase.
