A week or so after our article appeared mind you not claiming an credit just pointing out a coincidence Keenan was named acting postmaster of his new Home town population 65. His congressman representative Michael j. Mansfield apparently decided that anyone who was fond rewarded and made the recommendation to the postmaster , however does t share Keenan s View that Montana is a place enemy planes would bother dropping a bomb.

Back to the French tracks War during which served with the first division in Africa and later with Oss in France hews Only too Happy to note that French racing had suffered Little by the wartime interlude. I anything according to Downs there seems to one change in the behaviour of the French in the prewar Days one hardly heard the fans during the course of a race now they really Boot them Down the stretch and at a photo finish the Racket is As great As it would at Saratoga Aque duct or any other stateside racing Plant under similar conditions. The new animation is evidently due to the i influence of 1945 and 1946. If might Hazard the guess this is the kind of abrasion of european life that May soon have the radio diffusion Francaise beating the Countryside about Paris for a French Clem Mccarthy.
