ILKLA MOOR NOW BAHT BAN

Restrictions Go: Ramblers Free To Roam Anywhere

Ikla Moor, of the famous song, may now be walked on not merely "baht 'at," but "baht" the permission of a local authority or landowner.

The local council's experiment in removing restrictive notices was quoted to show that the interests of grouse-rearing and rambling do not necessarily conflict because they occur in the some place.

Convicts To Sing Opera Choruses

Prisoners in Pentonville are to have community singing and one day may broadcast as n choir.

Mr. T. P. Ratcliff, the well-known community singing leader, has been invited by the Governor and the Chaplain to organise a weekly pro- gramme at the prison. The frst "ging" will be shortly.

NATIONAL PARKS PLEA

National parks, where sport, agri- culture, rambling und general re- creation could be pursued alde by alde, were demanded by the confer- enge; also a Parliamentary measure to make all mountains and other · uncultivated and free for public walking.

common

A fear that unless a national sur- vey of England's open commons is made without delay their protection will be more and more diflcult was expressed by Sir Lawrence Chubb.

"A common is only a while the rights of caminon-pasture, ele, continue to be practised," he sald. "Cars drive away the cows, and unless something is done quick- ly to define what is common land and what not it may be impossible in a few years' time to tell where public rights and privileges begin and end."

"MIKADO" CHORUSES "Part-singing is not everybody's gift, but it can be taught. It anyone has not a good voice they can still ning with a large body of men and lose their self-conselousness in the crowd.

"I haven't decided what the pro- gramme is to be yet, but I am think ing of some of the choruses from The Mikado-Th Willow' and the Flowers that Bloom in the Spring."

"What I am hoping to do is to create so ne a choir that broadcast to the whole country."

"But," said Mr. Ratcliff, with smile, that is for the future."

Dirty rivers were another subject of complaint. Declaring that control should be exercised on the basis of watershed arens With a central authority, Mr. W. H. Hornby Steer mentioned the River Ouse, where seven tons of fish, poisoned by in- dustrial refuse, were taken out hetween Bedford and Cardington, and a rural district in Leicestershire in which all the fish in the River Spar died and the children had to go Ave miles away to find clean water tu bathe in.

"This is til I have," she told the court.

Hospital Clue

From Anthrax

Working on a single clue, public health authorities have saved London from a possible epidemic of anthrax,

Recent. Nazi reprisals against German Jewry and the effect these i have had upon American public opinion has solved Charlie Chaplin's greatest dilemma. He will now definitely make his next film a satire on dictatorship and be will play a dust role.

A case of anthrax was ding- nosed in a man admitted to

Guy's Hospital sometime ago. It was found that the man was n household brush-maker with a Southwark firm.
