liportisg In Hack Pare. TV and It is often good fun, and sometimes revealing. to take a second look at news which made the headlines of. say. 25 years ago.

ITV, in its programme All our Yesterdays did that last night. It gave us a chance to be wise after the event. to notice the People in the news have changed. at least little else. It was far too news-conscious In its half-hour look at the past.

fluting with bewildering used between excerpts from old newsreels, stall photographs and a studio commentary. Certainly. the newsreaders of the day had to display urgency the filmed announcement of the birth of quads in Rumania should surely not be made to sound like a reversed count-down at a rocket launching. as it did in the announcer's: One. two, three, four, nice work Fortunately can to-day be a little more letsurelv The programme had its amusement value, but given either tighter selection of material or longer viewing time.

the headlines of 25 years ago might still have something to Panorama IBSCI included arguments from distinguished commentators from East and West on Russia's call for a Summit conference of 18 nations The commentators tended to restate points already made elsewhere. and to lapse sometimes into H.

Viewlee nse at the Ear see with Hal led STANDARD TO RFANUR MOTOR SPORT TR4s in European Events Front Our Motoring Correspondent JACK HAY is to re-enter motor sport with a team of new Triumph TR4 sports cars. The competition department, which was disbanded atter Standard-Triumph was taken over by Leyland. has been re-formed. The first event for the team will be the Tulip Rally in MAY followed by the Sofia the Alpine Rally and the RAC. The new sporting programme Is to be closely linked with the company's engineering development aroJects and models other than the TR4 will be entered in other rallies where this is considered advisable Leyland Success Graham Robson.

a Standard- Triumph development engineer. and a well-known international rally driver--he was co-driver to Peter Proctor who was placed fourth in general classification in a Sunbeam to the last Monte Carlo Rally -has been appointed Rent of 10s. for Council House Not Reasonable' A warning that the Secretary for Scotland does not think that an average of illls. or lla a week to a reasonable rent for a council house is given in a circular Issued last night to local authorities It was enclosed with a copy of the report an "Rents of houses owned by local authorities In Scotland in 1961." which was published yesterday. The return shows that the average weekly rent for mimed house In Scotland at the end of November was la.

Id. compeUtion secretary Teem captain will be John Sprinsel. one of the most experienced international rally drivers to llntain For Leyland. who now control Standard-Triumph. it will be the first Urn, that the company has been connected with motor sport since 1924 when Parry Thomas drove a Leyland Straight tight to capture the world land speed record at 129 73 miles an hour.

Tins year could be a vintage year far rally driving and sports car racing for more and more companies are taking an active interest In the sport. The circular. Mimed by the Department of Health for Scotland. natio that the Scottish average Is increasing from month to month and is already higher than that brought out in the return Unfair to Ratepayers While some authonties are now charging rents to which no omegas. can be taken.

there are MS mousy authontiss who the Secretary of State's Ilrsi. spin consider seriously whgthle their current rents are MAW In the light of modern Mations. bearing in mind that Soft of keeping rents artifidaft low is unfair to ratepayers with low incomes who are not In council houses and Is prejudicial to the longterm Interests of the area and. Indeed. of the country as a whole.

In the period under review, some Individual authontles have made substantial increases in rent, and the Secretary of State appreciates that where rents have. In the past, been unduly low It may be impracticable to raise them In one step to fully realistic levels."

Seawater for Cities' Question to Minister Mr. Grimond. the Liberal leader. has taken up the idea of distilling seawater for ordinary uses. In a question to the Minister for Science he asks: What investigations have been or are being made into the distillation of seawater for industrial and domestic purposes in this country? It is expected that the question w4ll be answered next Tuesday.

Already in Guernsey. there Is a plant capable of distilling up to 500.000 gallons of seawater a day for these purposes. Lord Blrkett, in his last speech in the House of Lords on Thursday on Manchester Corporation's Ullswater Bill, said that more consideration should be given to this idea. Run Short' Manchester Town Clerk, Mr. Philip Dingle.

yesterday met officials of several local authorities which Manchester had undertaken to supply with water and they considered the position created by the rejection, by the House of Lords, of Manchester's proposal to water from Ullswater. They recommended a meeting In Manchester on March 5. of elected representatives of Lancashire local authorities. The question of restricting supplies to other authorities was referred to." said Mr. Dingle.

He added: Manchester City Council has to decide whether to refuse any more notices for water to be reserved to these authorities. There is a battery of appliCations to Manchester for additional water to be reserved immediately. As to the future, Manchester will probably feel that we should all run short of water together." MAN FOR CHANCE TO STEAL' A man was alleged at Smethwick magistrates' court yesterday to have posed as a collector for the Red Cross and as a meter inspector undoubtedly looking for opportunities to steal." Alexander Thomas Webb (43). of no fixed address, was committed in custody for trial at West Bromwich Quarter Sessions on four charges. Three alleged that he had broken into houses in Smethwick and stolen goods and cash totalling £118: and a fourth and alternative charge was of stealing a total of £5 13s.

from two meters. Mr. J. Lee. prosecuting.

said that a peaked cap with red cross badge and a blue armband with a similar badge were found at Webb's lodgings, together with things from two of the houses. When arrested Webb had £3 ltls. in shillings, Mr. Lee added. Trophy for Stirling Moss The Royal Automobile Club announced yesterday that the Hawthorn Memorial Trophy for 1961 has been awarded to Stirling Moss.

The trophy, which honours the late Mike Hawthorn, first British driver to become World Champion. is awarded annually to the highest placed British or Commonwealth driver in the World Championship. Stirling Moss was placed equal third with the American Dan Gurney in 1961. The previous winner was Jack Brabham. The presentation will take place at the R.A C.
