THE CHINA · MAIL.

SATURDAY, MAY 26, 1957.

Talking about records (as the Hon. Cedric Blaker did when he said goodbye to Henry Ching-33 years Editor SCMP and 40 years with the company) an entry “We are having our fire crackers early this year" in Mr Ching's 26- year-old personal column Bird's Eye View must have been a record of its kind. A record even for his

courage and dry wit, for the paper in which it appeared that day, Christmas 1941, was printed

under bombardment, and distributed magically to places on Hongkong Island

that priority Army signals failed to reach. But Time bowls over where

the Japs could not, and a 33-year long Editor takes his bow

and a silver cigar box from the Directors.

NICE TIMING

There seems to be a terrible lot of machinary to twist the hands of the Star Ferry's new four-faced clock. And the only thing it can do that the one on your wrist connot is ring Wesminster chime.

But correct timing at the Star Ferry Is protty important when you are expected at Kal Tak to meet someone like a leading tenor of the New York Metro- politan Opera.

Which is what is happening above (left to right)-Wolf Reado, Mrs Odoll and Harry Odell meeting Mrs Tucker, and Richard Tucker.
