"Names make news." Last week the following names made the following news:

Anita, 22-year-old daughter of Joseph Clark Grew, U.S. Ambassador to Turkey, swam the length of the Bosporus (18 mi.) in five hours, while her father fed her chocolate, cheered her with phonograph music from a small boat.

When the Belgenland reached Fire Island, N.Y., on her return from a six-day cruise to Halifax, it was 1 a.m. At a sweepstakes party were Hisashi Fujimura, rich Japanese importer (Asahi Corp.), and his mistress--svelte, blonde, beauteous Mrs. Mary Dale von Reissner, onetime showgirl. She was travelling with him in the guise of governess to his seven-year-old daughter Toshika. During the voyage there had been some stateroom resentment over their affair. At 1 a.m., Importer Fujimura left the party. Except for the testimony of a staff officer and a stewardess who thought that they saw him two hours later, dressed, that was presumably the last time Hisashi Fujimura has been seen. The British, U.S. and Japanese Governments were investigating. At Norwalk, Conn., on the Fujimura estate Mrs. Fujimura was burying her third child, giving birth to her fourth.

John Davison Rockefeller Jr. has found that Tammany Hall was holding up him and the other builders of Manhattan's Radio City, for the granting of privileges for entrancesand garages. He threatened to withdraw the project, threatened to tell Samuel Seabury, inquisitor of the city's municipal scandals. Tammany Hall, scowled, pondered.

Albert Einstein's sartorial negligence still drives his wife to tears. Her latest wail: Under pretense of being a guest at tea, a friendly tailor measured the professor's size by sight, made him a suit. When the tailor presented the finished suit and explained the ruse, the professor lost his temper (a rare event), chased the tailor from the Einstein's Berlin apartment, refused to wear the suit. He gives his clothes money to charity. Last week he was vacationing at Caputh near Potsdam, wearing white linen pajamas, no socks, no shoes.

George, 12-year-old son of Comedian Cliff Edwards ("Ukulele Ike"), fell under a freight train near Chicago, had to have both legs amputated.

Explorer Roy Chapman Andrews of the American Museum of Natural History, barred from further excavations in Mongolia by the Chinese Commission for the Preservation of Antiquities, stopped for a polo game at Peiping on his way home, fell off his pony, broke his collarbone.

Near Fontainebleau, France, onetime King Alfonso XIII of Spain saw a chateau for sale at $800,000, opened negotiations for it with an offer of $700,000.

Rolling up from Rio, the Munson liner Southern Cross neared New York. It was 4:30 a.m. when William Henry Murray Jr., son of Governor "Cocklebur Bill" Murray of Oklahoma, an unidentified woman and the ship's third officer left the cabin of Assistant Purser Joseph Apud. Next morning Assistant Purser Apud was found dead, shot through the head with a bullet from the revolver he clutched in his hand. The revolver was identified as belonging to young Murray. Assistant Purser Apud had left a farewell note. His death was announced as a suicide, but Apud's mother met the boat at Brooklyn, demanded an investigation. In Oklahoma City, Governor Murray said that his son had been teaching natives in Bolivia and Argentina to drive oil trucks. "I didn't know he was coming," continued the Governor. "I guess he intended it as a surprise. . . . He's just like that; he won't tell them much up in New York. I talk a lot, but he isn't that way. You watch."

George Vanderbilt, rich Manhattan sportsman, returned from a trip to islands in the Pacific with 120 animals, 25,000 ft. of moving picture film, a story of having hooked a young whale.

A lover of fine horses, President Paul Doumer of France was last week offered three pairs of thoroughbreds by the Breeders' Association of France. Gratified, because horses are not only more chic but cheaper than an auto. President Doumer was forced to decline the offer because he had no stable. The stables of the Elysee Palace were long since turned into a garage.

At Ketchikan, Alaska, customs officers boarded the yacht of General William Wallace Atterbury, president of Pennsylvania R.R., seized his supply of rye whiskey and champagne. General Atterbury fumed.
