Hate And Win Is U.S. Swim Code
Jack Wardrop goes bask to America in January. He has another three months to do at Michigan University before taking his final pre-law BA examinations. Before he goes he would like to pass on to Britain's young swimmers the knowledge he has gained in the hard school of American University sport. He told me:
In my young daya (adys this "old man" of 24 ammers) wo thod to fer competitive swimming by trial and error, it

MARLENE DIETRICH RETURNS TO MOVIE LOT AFTER THREE YEARS' ABSENCE

The world's most glamorous woman has returned to the movie lot after an absence of three years to appear with a person she has publicly described as "the most fascinating middle-aged male in the world.”
Marlene Dietrich had long since stopped reading movie scripts when, Titanus Films asked her to star in "The Monte Carlo Story." She was too busy blazing entertainers. However, now trails as one of the world's highest-paid night club
