Up and Down the Land

... WE publish in another page an appeal for a new outlook on agriculture and for the leadership and organisation which it must have. The writer of the article sees the need for co-operation between the leaders of certain interests, and visualises, in effect, a Round Table Conference between them.

Films to See Next Week

... The Lady in Question Those who enjoyed that excellent French film, Gribouille, will like to compare with it the American version, in which Brian Aherne (inset above) and Rita Hayworth (with Glenn Ford in the larger picture) appear in the roles previously (and superbly) played by Raimu and Michele Morgan.

Rapier on Racing: A Disappointing Season Concluded--The Three Champions--Turkhan Wins at Last--Jumping at ..
