BARBARA BRINES

PORT ELIZABETH, Union OF
South Africa, Nov. 2 (Delaye6-|
LP- After 81 months of intern
ment within four walls at Santo-
Tomas in Manila, it still seems un-
real we are heading for home.
The day of my departure is out
standing in my memory, and
think shall recall it long after
have accepted normal living once
again. 1t was when we departed
from the friends with whom we
had worked and shared unforgot-
table experiences.
The entire camp as up, ready
to help and bid farewell. Lights
burned in familiar rooms, and
floodlights Illuminated pile of
baggage, which was symbolic OF
the fact that we actually were
going. There was an intense feel
ing of sadness for those to be
left behind; mingled with a SEN
sation of happiness and hope which
had lain dormant.
In trucks we passed through
those hateful and hideous gates
which had changed shut on us so
long before. We passed through
darkened streets which were quiet
and desolate.
You feel that this was the ghost
of pre-war Manila. AS the trucks
thumped over car tracks, I was
delighted with the unfamiliar cen
sation of the motion. Hundreds OF
Filipinos were waiting at the sta
ton but we were herded away,
then counted and finally allowed
to board train which took us
northward to San Fernando.
There was not much space on the
crowded coach. The 20-inch seats
with straight wooden backs were
uninviting - but such things did
not matter.
We crowded between stacks of
baggage and the trip finally was
started.
Throughout the long ride, we
passed numerous rice paddles
guarded by Japanese soldiers, and
we saw much agricultural activity.
The train stopped at each small
town. Many vendors approached
us but we were not allowed to
talk to them, or even smile.
When we reached San Fernando,
we were so dusty that we resemoi-
ed minstral players ready tor the
curtain. Again we stood While we
were counted and recounted and
then we were told to walk toward
iron cargo barges at a nearby
wharf. 1t was hard to keep from
breaking into a gallop.
We descended a small gang
plank which swayed dangerously
and soon we were packed within
the barge. The sun beat down I'M
mercifully, but in the distance we
could see the white crosses on the
Teia Maru and there wasn't
much room for any other thoughts.
i At last we pulled alongside the
liner, and on the upper deck l
saw my husband for the first time
since he left Santo Tomas tor
Shanghai the previous year.
MY happiness was too much for
description. That reunion was
something big to me - and l am
told there were many OF them
like it.

began rebuilding his last place
team today for his 43rd season in

who won 20 games and pitched five
shutouts with Toronto this year.
He got Joe Moore, former New

and third baseman, Louis Flick,
outfielder, who hit 400 and Nor

The players he surrendered in

NEW YORK, Sept. 28.-CUP)-
Out of mighty Whirlaways stable
speeds another dark-chestnut colt,
Warren Wright Pensive, attempting
to gallop meteorically in two brief
weeks from obscurlty to the champ
ionship of tWo-year-o -olds.
Turf attention will be riveted
upon Pensive's performance Satur-
day in the 54th running of the
$4,000 Belmont futurity, worlds
most famous fixture for juveniles.
Though hailed as another "Calu-
met Comet this handsome young
ster comes up to the future with
only two previous starts under his
heels-the two races he won at Bel
mont Park last week.
Despite the Pensive's lack of
competition, victory in the Futurity
would make him king of his class,
because of the existing tumble in
the division. Such a victory also
probably would make him early
favorite for next years Kentucky
derby, the classic which Whirlaway
won in 1941.
Owner Wright and trainer Ben
Jones had planned to send the
Calumet baby to the races last
spring, but he developed shin
bucks in training, and later came
in with distemper and a cough.
Hence the delayed start.
Wright and Jones expected pen
sive to follow the hoofmarks of
Whirlaway, the Turf's greatest all
time money-winner who was retired
to stud this year at the Calumet
farm, Lexington, KY. They based
their hopes upon pensive's breed
ing and his perfect conformations
as yearling.
If breeding can achieve a won
der horse Pensive should blos-
som into another Calumet Comet.
Rarely has colt with such blue
blooded forebears raced in the
United States. He is son of the
great English sire, Hyperion, and
of the imported English mare, Peni-
cuik 2nd.

Golf Club Members
VIII! Testify In
SANDER Suit

GOLDEN. Colo, Sept. % (UP)-
A capacity crowd was expected to
lam the jefferson county district
court today to hear testimony
about the private life of Denver's
smart set in a slander suit against
% members of the exclusive Lake
wood Country Club.
Mrs. Martha Morris, one of Colo
radios top women golfers, was
seeking 100000 from the golf club
members on charges they made
false statements about her conduct
which caused her husband to be
ousted from the country club and
deprived her of the hobby of play
ing golf.
Indications that the trial would
develop into a counter-attack on
the behavior of other members was
seen in a deposition made earlier
by a former caddy who testified
that four women members engaged
in a strip foursome" golf game
over the 18-hole course.
The caddy, now in the navy, did
not bare the details of the game,
and sportsmen and other spectators
were hoping the rules and results
of the match would be brought out
by the caddies who tried to keep
their eyes on the ball during the
affair.
The deposition also had stated
that one man broke his leg during
crap game" at the club, and
that members often gave liquor to
caddies during their rounds.
Mrs. Morris contended in her suit
that she had ben falsely accused of
swearing and cheating during her
golf matches.
