Reporter Palmer
On Police Beat
Montreal Herald

AL Palmer, formerly OF The Citi-
zen staff has returned to his homo
town of Montreal and is now senior
police reporter for The Herald, 265
Wire street, w., Montreal ], Cana
da. The Herald is Montreals oldest
evening newspaper and is the one
for which Palmer worked for a
number of years he says for
about half his lifc.)
Announcement of his coming
marriage, May II, was also made
In the letter received here giving a
full report CT his activities from the
day Of leaving.
Palmer is also writing q column
for weekly magazine, and police
stories for various Toronto papers.
He vacationed for two months af-
ter returning to Canada, arriving
In Montreal lin the midst of the
seasons greatest blizzard. /"
Since his first night on the police
beat he covered two Eludgcon
murders, several fires, safe-crack-
ing cases and the capture Of a
wanted bank bandit who helped
.shoot two and kill onc) detectives
lin Toronto. They flushed out his
partner In q basement apartment
a week later. II was all very mo-
yic-like with tear gas and ma
chine guns, to qaotc from the let
ter.
Palmer left here the day after
the disappearance Of the missing
Canadian beauty, Mrs. George Lee
May. IA Montreal paper called long
distance and wanted Palmer to- CO.
yer the story for them from Key
West, but he was already en- route
to Canada.
On the LcMay case, Palmer
thought Of returning TO work on il
for The Citizen but decided at the
last minute to continue his plans
to return to Montreal. In regard to
the investigation he writes:
THE LeMay case has been on
and off the front pages since / re-
turned. ! think my original theory,
which ! told Norman Artman on
the day ! left, viii be pretty well
borne out--if LeMay can be convin-
ccd that he should return to Flori-
da. =
Palmer states that he hopes to
revisit Key West sometime this
year for 1 few days and to see his
friends here again.

South Africdn Pepper
Says Premier Mulun
Stoging Coup D'etdt

ASouth African newspaper,
the Johannesburg Star, states
cditorially that if the bill,
sponsored by the race-hating
Nationalist Party which is
headed by Premier Malan,
making Parliament itself the
final court of appeal is a coup
d'etat and tantamount to con-
verting South Africa into a
totalitarian state, if the legis-
lation can be enforced.
Stripped Of all verbiage, the
bill means the end Of the
South Africa Act as the valid
constitution Of the Union. For
while the true bill nominally
preserves constitutional safe
guards and the rights Of the
Court in actual fact, the High
Court Of Parliament, that is
Parliament itself through a
bare majority, can decide to
treat both the constitutional
safeguards and the Judge

November Problem of Choosing
Quarterback Up Again at Navy

Penn, and he, Navy and it's fans
fervently hope for improvement.
Hamilton might as we'll have
kicked pillows against Penn, for
all the distance he got. His
|erratic footwork gave Coach
George Munger's men a terrific
advantage, but they couldn't cash
in.
Fill-ins Come Through.
Erdelatz was pleased with the
work of such fill-ins as Joe Gatuso
and John Honse, who did yeoman
duty to help hold Penn's running
ATTACK at crucial stages of play.
The Navy coach hopes to have
Don Fullam, Hugh Webster and
Joe Wilmer ready for Notre Dame
and he'll probably need them.
Herb T'iede, who hurt an ankle,
was the only serious casualty of
the game, and no report on him
will be available until later today.
Schoderbek probably won't find
Notre Danes line as easy to run
against this week, especially if he
elects to handle most of the work
himself. 1t wasn't that the kid
from Hero avenue in Duquesne,
Pa. wanted to do it all himself,
but Penn left him such opportuni-
ties to strike through the line,
rather than hand off, he couldn't
pass them up. A smarter football
team than Penn probably would
have given such a troublesome
quarterback more attention and
watched for the runs.
Thrilling Windup.
The fourth period of Saturdays
game should be we'll remembered
by the $1,000 fans who saw the
spine-tingling windup. Bob
Hempel's 26yard field goal at
tempt had Penn fans sucking in
their breath. And Navy support
ers were on the anxious seat a few
later when Penn reached
the Sailors 5-yard line only to
lose the ball on a tumble.
Then followed wild couple of
minutes when Walt Hynoski
passed to Eddie Bell. who lateraled
to Bill Deuber on Navy's II, only
to be followed by a 15-yard clip
ping penalty, against the Quakers.
The pass from Hynoski, intended
for Deuber, which was DETECTED
into the hands of Joe Gattuso,
brought another groan from the
Penn stands, and all hope for a
Penn victory was abandoned
when rookie Dick King knocked
down Hynoski's final pitch to
Deuber in the end zone,

Crack Mexican Team
In Pennsylvania Show
BY the Associated Press

HARRISBURG, Pa. Oct. 81
MeXico's green timber -toppers
challenge the United States two
year domination of the interna-
tional low score jumping event
today at the Pennsylvania Ma
tional Horse Show.
Each team will be aiming to
retire the 104th Cavalry Chal-
lenge Trophy as the three-day
event gets under way tonight al
the week-long show. Mexico won
the event in 1948 and 1949 before
the United States civilian team
was organized.
Mexico showed that it's young
mounts can handle the difficult
indoor courses in their first at
tempt when its entries finished
one-tWo in Saturday nights pre-
liminary international jump.
ReSorte II. ridden by Capt. Vic
tor Carrillo. finished four-f1fths of
a second ahead of Gen. Humberto
Marbles on Chihuahua II to take
the blue ribbon in the seven-horse
jump-Off. Mrs. Carol Durand,
Kansas City socialite. gave the
United States third place on Reno
Kirk, while 1t. Col. Charles
Baker, Canada. on Starclift was
fourth.
All four completed the difficult
nlne-jump course twice without
a fault. Only the speed of the
horses decided the places.
While the Irish Army and
French teams were shut out of
the ribbons in the opening jump
both are expected to make a
determined bid in tonight'S first
round of the loW-score competi-
ton. That three-day event, with
scores accumulative. is the most
important international prize at
the show.
