fering from the torture of stomach
ulcers, the duke was unwilling to com
plain and request release from his
misery.
Restored to health in 1917, the war
found him as "Mr. Johnson" an Of
ficer in a 12-inch gun turret of H. M.
S. Collingwood, speeding to meet the
German fleet at Jutland. While the
Collingwood's guns Numbered, the
slim Duke of York calmly made cocoa
for the turret crew in the best tradi-
ton of Britannia's royal navy. Not
even Prince Edward of Wales encoun-
tered such wartime danger.
Transferred to the British air force,
the duke easily won his spurs as a
flyer. Although he was not given his
pilots wings until 1919, the fact is he
took his solo test on one of the wind
lest days that year. He is rated by
experts much better flyer than the
Duke of Windsor. For Albert there
was little of the dramatic gesture that
marked his brothers wartime expert
ences, and when peace came, the duke
was glad to turn his mind toward his
beloved mechanics. He made and de-
signed radio sets, learned to make
foundry casts, to run a linotype ma
chine, to develop his own films.
Then Completes Schooling
To mature his schooling, however,
Albert enrolled as a student at Cam
bridge university, majoring in history
and economics. A story King George
VI likes to tell on himself concerns his
payment of shillings and 8 pence
($1.62) fine for illegally smoking on
school grounds. That was the most ex
pensive cigaret I ever lit," chortled
the roya! u:.!Se. reminiscing.
His precarious health, his intense
shyness, his agonizing defect of STAN
mering, had bred in Albert love and
respect for healthy and happy people.
And remembering his Sandring CHAM
days, when he played with the village
boys the duke set up in 1921 the first
CT his boys camps, Here, in the heart
of the country, he brought together
200 impoverished, sun-starved city
youths from England's slums and 200
blue bloodS from the lands most fam
ed public schools, and caused them to
play, eat and live as man to man.
Until George vi assembled the throne
he had missed only one summer with
his boys. That lapse was due to a
poisoned hand. It was during those
Joyous years King George Duilt up his
present day powerful physique and
became crack tennis player. He de-
veloped talent for field sports that
made him the most athletic royal
prince the nation ever had known
and showed him a democrat whose
sympathies for the poorer of the land
actually was wider, if lesser known,
than that Of his wOrld-famous broth
er, Edward.
Next: Marriage.

Before he was out of his teens, the
future Duke of York was being de-
scribed as the industrial prince"
Actually Albert was not invested with
the Dukedom of York until 1920, when
he was made peer and took his law
full place in the House of Lords. And
it was because he was not the Prince
of Wales, liberties were permitted AL
bert. He played soccer ana football
with the Sandringham village boys,
learned to shoot under the expert eye
Of his crack-shot king-father, and en-
joyed partial freedom from the royal
Journalism that fettered his elder
brother.
On Cadet Ship
When H. M. S. Cumberland, cadet
training vessel, sailed for West Indies
in 1913, Albert, on his first unaccom-
panied voyage out of England, soon
discovered his royal father had sternly
ordered no exceptions be made for his
son. With a fortitude that afterward
won the pity of Britain, Albert con-
tinued to labor under the rigorous dis
cipline of the royal navy. And two
years later a series of operations dis
closed that though he had been suf-

my chief claim to fame seems to
be that I am the father of Princess
Elizabeth"
Such was the lament three years
ago of Albert Frederick Arthur
George Windsor, Duke of York, the
modest man whom the whole world
today knows as His Majesty George
vi, King of Great Britain and Ireland
and the Dominions Beyond the Seas
and Emperor of India, Defender of
the Faith.
Almost from the moment of his
birth at York cottage beneath the
gray walls of Sandringham castle on
December IA, 1895, until Edwards alb
dication in 1886, Albert (Bertie) had
been that most luckless of royal fig
ures, prince whose whole career is
completely eclipsed by crown prince
brother. 1t began with his birth.

Birth Annoyed Victoria

Birth Annoyed Victoria
When renowned Queen Victoria, his
dour grandmother, learned that
the future king might be born on the
anniversary of the day years previ-
ously that her beloved consort, Albert
passed away, she repeatedly became
irritated. And she demanded as COM
pensation the newborn princeling be
called Albert, a name detested at that
time by all good Englishmen, because
Albert, Queen Victoria's consort, had
been a German. That is why today
the new king is called George, one of
his minor christening names.
The sea is Britain's traditional mil
itary training ground. When Edward
showed little favor for sailors life,
his father, George V, who loved the
very smell of salt water, turned to his
second son, Albert, to carry on the
allegiance to the royal navy. At Dart
mouth Naval college, where his faith
er had been known as "The Sardine"
spindly-legged Albert earned the il
lustrious nickname CDR. Johnson"
through his passion for study.
This fascination for learning soon
led him into the field of mechanics.
