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

In a barn on the estate of Secretary of the Navy Charles Francis Adams near the shore at Scituate, Mass, police found 600 cases of liquor valued at $50,000, arrested three men. Informed of the seizure at the World Series in Philadelphia, which he attended with President & Mrs. Hoover, Secretary Adams smiled. "It is perfectly possible that a cargo of liquor was landed on that rough point," said he.

Stout Irene Schoellkopf-Carman, fiftyish, wealthy onetime wife of the late Frank Barrett Carman and of Buffalo's millionaire C. P. Hugo Schoellkopf, was sued for $100,000 by one Courtland Erwin Conkwright, 27, handsome life guard at Long Beach, L. I. He claimed she lured him from his job to be her "secretary" at $5,000 a week, bought him a $600 wardrobe, a $3,000 car. Soon her interest waned, her Long Island home was closed to him. He asked 20 weeks pay.

Because her son, T. Suffern ("Tommy") Tailer Jr. prefers to play golf on the Newport Country Club course, Mrs, T, Suffern Tailer will abandon (for sale) the famed nine-hole Ocean Golf Links at Newport which her late husband had built, and where they gave Gold Mashie tournaments.

Said Bishop William Fletcher McMurry of Missouri to the clergymen at the Louisville Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, at Columbia, Ky.: "Golf is for worn-out business men, not for Methodist preachers."

One George E. Thomas of Chicago refuted the story, circulated by women students at Northwestern University, that longtime President Frances Elizabeth Willard of the W. C. T. U. had once been caught with a half-burned cigaret (TIME, Oct. 5). Mr. Thomas revealed that a group of workmen on the campus conspired to plant a lighted cigaret in Miss Willard's room as a joke. They drew lots; the task of placing the cigaret fell to Letter Writer Thomas' father, Philip D.

"Times are so serious today that everybody must cheer up his neighbor. So I'll try to do my share," remarked Professor Albert Einstein to a Berlin society audience last week. For two hours he entertained with learned explanations of such familiar phenomena as why tea-leaves gather in the centre of the cup, why airplanes fly. "Why does the wind die down at sunset, with the sailor left helpless out in the middle of the water?" said he. "This is a serious matter. I was once left with a young lady alone in a boat until two o'clock in the morning."

(Professor Einstein expects to revisit the physical and astronomical laboratories at Pasadena next month, to avoid "lion hunters.")
