EDITH liked Rusty the moment she saw

was tall, solid sort of lad. The line of his

his eyes were even bluer. Or perhaps it was
his red hair that made them look bluer.

Commander Elevated

LONDON, Oct. 5 - up -

greatest British admiral since
Nelson, today become First
British Sea Lord succeeding
Admiral Sir Dudley Pound, who

nounced last night after Admiral

Royal Masonic Hospital since
Sept. 90 and was reported Sc
riously i'll, stepped down from
the position he has held since
the start of the war.
It was not announced wheth-
or Sir Andrew would continue
as active commander in the
Mediterranean, which has been
the scene of his greatest exploits
both during the first world war
and the present war.
He was serving as deputy
chief of the British naval staff
when he was named to the
Mediterranean command and
took the assignment with a
sigh of relief, telling friends that
Il never was any damned good
at office work, anyhow"
Sir Andrew, who is SO, is
known as a strict disciplinarian
and has a reputation through
out the British navy for his pow
erful voice.
Sir Dudley had been called
the father" of Britain's present
strategy of aggressive action. He
saw action as commander of II.
NJ. S. Colossus in the Battle of
Jutland and was in command of
the Mediterranean fleet in 1885
when war with Italy loomed
over the Ethiopian situation. He
has been close TO Prime Minister
Churchill and was present at the
conference when the Atlantic
Charter was drawn. He is one of
two living naval officers to hold
the British Order of Merit.
Churchill expressed regret at
Sir Dudley's resignation at a
time when control of the
Mediterranean is within our
grasp"
