Queen Of The Air ON CHANGE IN
London, May 22. This picture of a glamorous air hostess fashing a £2,000 diamond ring may have pleased large numbers of the British public, but one man did not look at it with approval.
Thai man was champion runner, Gordon Pirie, who read with considerable annoyance that this hostess had been allowed to bring the ring, won as first prize in the "Queen of the Alr" competition at Johannesburg, through the customs duty free.
Pirie recently received as a prize for a race in Germany The customs men asked him for a camera valued at £5. £4 duty. Pirie refused to pay for his prize so the customs men kept the camera.
"AWARD OF MERIT"
Sports columnists are asking if the girl was allowed to get her ring through duty free because it was an "award of merit" what then was Pirie's victory.
Indeed, should not an amateur sportsman or woman be more entitled to bring through free a modest price won on the field of battle than a beauty queen's fabulous award.
Sportsmen are hoping the stir this has caused will not only mean Pirie gets his camera back without having to pay duty. but that all sportsmen will in future be able to being in prizes won abroad without being asked to pay duty on them or alternately have them confiscated.

Mr Clement Attlee, the Labour Party leader, said at Walthamstow tonight he believed the Korean war might never have happened if "other people had recognised the Chinese Communist Government as Britain did."
RED TACTICS
Ottawa, May 24.
Russia had abandoned the "shock tactics of aggressive revolution" for "the "gradual approach," the External Affairs Minister, Mr Lester Pearson, said today.
"Sometimes a change in tactics can lead to a change in strategy, and if we can exploit a change such as this so much the better," he told the Commons External Affairs Committee.
Mr Pearson gave the com-) mittee a general review of the world situation and a report on recent North Atlantic Council meetings in Paris.

Spokesmen for the NATO countries discussed the me Russian look at length in the Paris conference. A number of reasons for the change were suggested, "but none of us could essess the relative importance of each reason."
The growing effectiveness of Western unity, economic dicul- ties at home, the threat of a hydrogen war-all were factors, he said.
"And finally, and maybe still of importance, they may hope to put us of our gaard," he added,
