Don't seem own soldiers. Stages 8 and 9 of the RESTAURANT AND COCKTAIL LOUNGE to be any. For HOLLYWOOD Mort Sahl, the acid, sharply-witted nightclub comedian and devastating critic of modern society, in his forthcoming movie does a switch of character by performing a feat of heroism. On the set at Columbia Studios, I watched a scene from "All the Young Men," the Korean War yarn dealing with the controversial issue of racial prejudice among our There used to be a handful of Jewish hockey players of some importance.

Torgen, the husky one of the rescuers, is played by Swede Ingemar Johansson, the heavyweight boxing champion of the world; while his bearded, lean buddy Crane is Mort Sahl as a Jewish boy who has experienced much hostility in the service; as did Sidney Poitier in the central role of Sergeant Towler who is resented by some of his men as the leader of the fighting group because he happens to be colored. During a breathing-spell on the set, Sahl told me laconically that he seems to be condemned to wear combat uniform throughout his whole career in the movies. He was a frontline GI in the Jerry Wald picture, "In Love and War," his very first.

Earlier still, he made his initial appearance in army fatigues when he enlisted during World War II at the age of 17. Perhaps, to show himself as a staunch individualist, he has been performing sweater-clad throughout his nightclub and television career. Not a Beatnik The "Angry young man" wants to be a non-conformist, but resents being called a Beatnik. "They don't want to be involved with society, believe in anarchy, which is the antithesis of what I do," Sahl says. To him, Beatnik humor is based on sheer irreverence, while he just tells the truth and makes people laugh at their own shortcomings.

His subjects cover the folkways of modern America, from psychoanalysis to politics to sports cars and education. Sahl-the-comedian evolved out (Contlnurd on puce 1ft) recent Winter Olympics, either.

Comfort is, Americans generally don't go in too much for Idle Thoughts I wonder if Bobby Fischer, who plays chess so well and thinks so highly of himself, will ever win the world's chess championship from Russia's Mikhail Botvinnik who, like Bobby, is Jewish? Will Alphonse Halimi, the courageous little fighter who was twice knocked out by Jose Becerra of Mexico, ever fight again for the bantamweight championship of the world and if he does will he remember the terrific beatings he took from the Mexican? What will happen to Larry Sherry, the Dodger relief star of last year's World Series? He never indicated that he had the ability to be a starting pitcher, yet this is his goal. Will Walt Alston allow him to try and give up on a guy who can get them out in the clutch? In other words, what's more valuable in these moon-shot days: a starting pitcher who can, at best, win 20 or 25 games, or a reliefer, who can win 7 or 8 and save 20 more? Will Erno Schwarz ever convince Americans that soccer is as good a game as football, or baseball? When will we come up with a these Winter Games, except to ob serve them on TV.

For on any table LID example, if somebody paid 10,000 pounds to obtain an apartment for which he pays 30 pounds rent, an increase in the rent to 60 pounds automatically reduces the value of the lease to 5,000 pounds. It was not clear why the Government wanted to relax rent control since on one hand it would not bring about a private building boom (rent in new buildings is not controlled) and the pressure of the landlords was not really strong. In any case a tough fight may be expected on this issue since about half of Israel's population lives in rented apartments and about half of the tenants paid key-money for their apartments.

The second by those who trust in monuments, archives and memorial books, proper and praiseworthy as the archives and books may be. If the memory is not to depend on swastika epidemics, its preservation must follow the 'lines' laid down by the great memory engineers of former days.

It must be linked, by method and substance, with the other sacred memories of our past. The Passover Seder, the anniversary of the Warso Ghetto uprising, would seem to be a fitting occasion for effecting such a link. LID CAOTN 1107 N. THIRD ST. The Champagnt of Boltlt Betr Milltr lrwing Co.
