THE MAN WHO MASTERED THE BRM

At first glance you might imagine him to be a film director or a successful businessman. But look closer. There is strength of character in the face, almost a hint of recklessness.

Scotland's team for the opening match of the World Cup series against powerful Austria on June 16 is likely to contain a large preponderance of home bred players, experts feel. Scots playing with English teams are definitely OUT.

HOLLYWOOD HEADLINES
The Drape-Suited Men Of Hollywood's Studios Are A Tough Bunch Of Fighters
Says JENNIFER JOHNS
Hollywood.
If I were asked to pick a tough bun ch of warriors to fight a holding battle in any future war, I should unhesitatingly make my choice from among the drape-suited men to be found in Hollywood luxury film studios. This after seeing some of them exchange their drape-suits and luminous ties for Marine uniform to Lake part in an "action" in the filming of the best-seller "Battle Cry."
These actors who at other times pad around in spongey shoes can act tough when they feel like it-or rather when the director lands them on a bench at Puerto Rico (supposed to be the Saipan) and begins the shooting of a major battle scene.
By way of exchange Gloria deį Says Donan: "I think the Haven has rented a new home trouble is that stors who win in Beverley 01: und has an award feel they must walt
