Planes took to the air, boats to the water and the civilian population to the land at looking for a lost and frightened little girl. At 11 a.m. today the Spencer's doorbell rang, and there on their doorstep was their child* Bob Spencer is "one of the most courageous men that I have ever known," Mr. Johnstone said when it was all over. "It was a terrible ordeal for both of them and they came through very bravely," he said. "They have shown the most extraordinary courage that I have ever seen in two human beings." SECOND ORDEAL This is the second time that little Andrea has seen violence inflicted on her parents in their home. On January 14 last year an armed man with long hair and an American accent forced his way into their home, held the family and three guests at gunpoint and ordered Mr. Spencer to get $300,000 from the Royal Bank of Canada. When Mr. Spencer left the house on that occasion he telephoned the police from a neighbour's home and they sent in an armed posse. Shots were fired when the gunman realized the police were there. The gunman held Joan Spencer as a hostage and made his getaway in her car. However, she managed to jump from the car about a mile froni their home and escaped through the bush after what she later described as "a 15-minute nightmare drive." While the hunt went on for Andrea, Mrs. Spencer was kept under medication. The Tribune has received numerous telephone calls from the public deploring what was described as the "devastation" to the grounds. All the thick shrubbery has cv eple lund m d-0 r-l coconut palms that once lined the entrance to the historic hotel building. The trees have been transferred to the East-West Highway which The Tribune understands, is the route to be followed by the royal visitor when he drives in from the airport for the independence day celebrations. The Highway is to be rena med independence Avenue BAHAMIAN PROPERTY But as one garden club member pointed out, the gardens were now the property of the Bahamian people, since government's purchase of the ild hotel o *t was the one beauty spot in town which attracted at least 100 tourists daily she said ' While it was agreed the gardens may have needed pruning and tending, removal of the thick-leaved foliage has destroyed one of the few tropical gardens still left in Nassau What has particularly upset garden club members is that they willingly agreed to setre on the Beautification Committee and were delighted at the prospect of taking part in im roving the Bahamian landscape ..DESTRUCTION "However no one asked us about the Royal Victoria. What we thought was to be pruning has turned into complete destruction," a prominent club member said. The Tribune understands that Mr. Rolle, a government Senator and owner of Exotic Gardens, was engaged by the Ministry of tf alth to landscape the gardens under a new arrangement which now makes that Ministry responsible for public parks and gardens. This previously came under the jurisdiction of the M atistry of Works.ol d Mr. Rle could not be contacted concerning his plans fr dh retgardens,thbut ith i 8 government wants to build several terraces and an old-fashioned band-stand where the police band is supposed to perform during the independence celebrations, CHEAPER Mr. Rolle reportedly claimed it was cheaper to transfer the palms from the Royal Victoria to the East West Highway than to purchase trees from the eight nurseries in Nassau.

Royal Victoria trees, said she was told by Mr. Rolle that if he had the space to put them he would take out all the palms. The Royal Victoria Hotel and grounds were purchased by government last year for $2 million. t , t s t s Mr. Robert H. Symonette, president of Bahamas Blenders, pointed out that liquor consignments already on the dock will have to be paid for on the new currency rate by wholesalers although this would not be passed on to the consumer at this time. Bahamas Blenders handle the Dutch beers Heineken and Amstel, America's Budweiser and England's Double Diamond as well as Guiness. Mr. Symonette said that the price of the Dutch beers had not gone up as much as the German ones. However there were to be no increases on American, Canadian, English or locally bottled spirits. NO NECESSITY "Within the limits th at the pound is now floating there is no necessity for increasing the price of Guinness, and no justification for increasing Scotch or Gin," Mr. Symonette said. However, European beers and all wines could be expected to go up, he added, but only after consultation with the Price Control Commission. A spokesman for the William Brewer company said that contrary to certain reports in the morning paper, the firm had not raised the price of its German-made Beck's beer, and lid not intend doing so until present stocks were exhausted and new supplies brought in. Mr. Symonette explained that some 60,000 cases of beer are imported into the Bahamas every two weeks and that there is never more than a three weeks supply on hand. Therefore there was no backlog of beer and rising import costs will be felt quickly, it was stated.

PLYMOUTH. England (AP) Prince Charles, heir to Britain's throne, sailed Monday for Bermuda and the West Indies aboard the Royal Navy frigate Minerva in which he is serving as a su b-lieutenant. The Minerva is due to spend six months on routine patrol in the Caribbean area, but it was not clear if the Prince will stay for the full tour. The Prince boarde~d the ship in driving rain and high winds but he smiled broadly for chotographers with the quip: ' The usual class sis advertisement for thle Royal Navy. I ought to be paid by Equity," referring to the actors'trade union. Charles had spent the weekend with his parents at Sandringham, north of London. * * * *** in Nassau Lt. ('mdr. David Cole, Resident Naval Officer. was trying to contact Bermuda to get further information on the Minerva's tour. At so~me time, he told The Tribune, the Minerva will come onto the Bahamas patrol, and if the Prince is still on board it is likely he will go ashore at some point in the Bahamas* While on patrol the ships of the Royal Navy put into either Nassau or Freeport. At times they also go onto the range at the AUTEC base in Andros, There are only two frig~ates on the Bahamas patrol and at some time during her six month tour the Minerva will have to be one of those ships. H.M.S. Intrepid, which has been in port since Friday, resumed her patrol when she Left Nassau at 10 a.m. today. During the time that the ship was here all ship's company were given shore leave. ~ttP ~ribunP < e-.,-............ e. .......Naseau and BahagsnaEslands Leadin Nlsae f~~~~~tr~~~~~~~ul~~ ~ Ne~ wspaper~r ~r~I eD~~tllr~lntrb~~n Garden club memniers an area at g 8Vefrnmet 500810f'S 'deVastatloR' Of R0)81 VICt0fl8 H0181 rOUndS ALTHOUGH GOVERNMENT has allegedly sought the assistance of Nassau's garden clubs to beautify New Providence, none of the clubs were consulted when the Beautification Committee's chairman E.

(AP) The red carpet was rolled out again Aee rt day as more lieae reached home. CAmon Ethemt Alvarez Jr., the first American pilot shot down and captured in North Vietnam. Alvarez, who was released to American forces Sunday after eight years and six months nearly a quarter of his life in Communist prisons, was on the second plane to arrive here. A third planeload of returning POWs from the Philippines was expected late in the afternoon. Each flight carried 20 men. Hundreds of well-wishers greeted the men as they stepped from the hospital planes onto the runway of this former departure base for Vietnam-bound servicemen. Alvarez, a native Californian, was a 26-year-old Navy Lieutenant when he left his pretty 24-year-old bride of two months behind in the spring of 1964 for a tour of duty on the a i rcra ft carrier USS Constellation. He returns to his mother and sister as a 35-year-old Lieutenant Commander. His wife, Tangee, waited six years. In 1970, she went to Mexico and obtained a divorce. Gaunt and unsmiling, Alvarez was the first man to emerge from the jet. He appeared surprised at the large, cheering crowd and, after saluting the colours and welcoming generals, he walked to the microphones said in a voice full of emotion: "For years and years we've dreamed of this day, and we kept faith -- faith in God, in our President of our country It was this faith that maintained our hope That some day our dreams would come true, and today they have.

The British pound, although floating outside fixed exchange rates, already was weakening. Market sources in London blamed this partly on Britain's strike troubles and partly on the returning dollar strength. The pound has followed the dollar Part way down. It closed Friday at $2.44 equivalent to a devaluation of 17 per cent against leading European Common Market currencies since the British float began last June. France is reported to object to allowing Britain more than a Government spokesman in several capitals maintained that the devaluation had steadied markets after two weeks of crisis selling g. But private-bankers were not so sure that sufficient confidence in money values had yet returned. Some suggested any one of a number of potential sparks could set off another international monetary crisis before long. Currencies with their immediate future in doubt included the Japanese yen, the British pound, the Italian lira and the Swiss and French francs. With all this uncertainty in the value of paper money, gold remained at record highs in Europe. It was the dollar, however, that touched off the latest crisis and foreign exchange dealers reported that markets were adjusting well to the devaluation that is supposed to resolve the difficulties. The dollar moved up in London, Zurich, Frankfurt, Paris, Brussels and Vienna, showing that in all these capitals the U.S. currency was attracting buyers at its new exchange rate. In short, the devaluation is beginning to work. The dollar was unchanged in Tokyo and Amsterdam, another improvement. It had been dropping in both cities earlier in the week. In some of the smaller money markets among them Italy and the Scandinavian countries -the dollar weakened. But the general trend was up. The continued uncertainty in money markets had several causes, dealers said, including the major reason for the dollar crists in the first place. end o 17 thteh U d Satts was spending $8% billion more abroad than it was earning overseas.

Publised Daily Monday to Saturday Saturday, February 17, 1973. Eien in dea th By ETIENNE DUPUCH TUIESDAY I told you aI story about the friendship that developed between Dr. Wenner-Gren and me. Today I will tell you of a simple act of courtesy on my part that forged a close relationship with Sir Victor Sassoon, Bt., the last of a distinguished line of Eastemn financiers. SBut first I must introduce you to the Sassoons. And the best way to do this would be by printing the introduction to The Saspsoons, a biography by Stanley Jackson telling the story of this remarkable family. Here is the introduction as taken from Stanley Jackson's book: fortune than the Sassoons, long known as 'the Rothschilds of the E~ast'. After centuries as Bankers to successive Ottoman rulers and leading citizens in Baghdad, the year 1829 saw the clan suddenly Faced with extinction and the young David Sassoon forced to ee9 his ancestral home by night under the threat of a death S" a srge generate dagis t e turu en a tgod oft worrds of a contemporary: 'Silver and gold, silks, gums and spices' opium11 and cotton, wool and wheat whatever moved over land 'and sea felt the hand and bore the mark of Sassoon & Co.' A vast fortune was accumulated but one that left a legacy of deep-rooted inter-family differences. ,"Even more remarkable than its trading coups was the clan's dardtzingr social progress. The first Sassoon to wear western dress ariftred in England in 1858. Within a few years the family boasted two baronetcies and was sending its sons to Eton and Oxford. "The Shah of Persia and, later, King Edward VII were to be guests in the Sassoon homes and shooting lodges. A Sassoon woman owned and simultaneously edited The Sunday 77mes and -the Observer. To her, Esterhazy confessed his guilt over Dreyfus. "Sir Philip Sassoon, millionaire host, politician and aesthete, was private secretary to Field Marshal Haig and Lloyd George, and friend of the Duke of Windsor, Chaplin and Lawrence of -Aaia. a--His cousin, Siegfried, is the famous war poet. Their kinsman, -ir Victor, survived a crippling air crash to become a merchant prince and international sportsman. His racing triumphs included Four Epsom Derby wins, and his financial deals involved millions, from the cotton boom of wartime India to Mao's take over of his huge enterprise in Shanghai." rC+**+**+ i So much for an introduction to the fascinating story of a temarkanble family. A frontispiece picture of David Sassoon shows him wearing a ttuiban and the loose flowing robes of the East. His feet are encased in silk sandals and he wore a well-groomed flowing beard with a trace of grey peeping through the black mass. He was .ggarthy of complexion and had the bearing of an Eastern SAnt er interesting picture is of David Sassoon with three of his eight sons. This picture, taken in 1858, is of a very old man with a srnowy white beard. In the group is the first Sassoon to jrear Western clothes. While his father and two brothers looked completely relaxed in their Eastern robes, the "westerner" looked like a horse in harness. He was wearing a tight-fitting tail coat igith a stiff-bosom shirt, black tie and a high winged collar. The Collar forced his chin upwards. He was clearly uncomfortable in tle role of a western dude. :,I read the book some time ago. I can't wade through it again to ~Z~up all the details but I recall that at one point in the story a rtesquarrelled. They decided to share the fortune and piparate, each taking his own sphere of operations in which they 3ir~te both equally successful. Mfter that there were two distinct Srranches of the family. :1 Sir Victor was the last male member of his branch and so the Qaronetcy died with him. :2When Communist Mao took over China he seized Sir Victor's frit fortune in Shanghal. He also held several European members $ Sir Victor's staff as hostages. :- No one knows what it cost Sir Victor in ransom money to 31cure their freedom but the figure ran into many millions of Mlzars .... in addition to the vast fortune he left behind when he *riIChina. ********** I don't know when Sir Victor came to Nassau. I amn not sure whether he was among the English evacuees in the second world war when wealthy tamilies came to Nassau to escape the bombinS in England or whether it was after the Communist take-over in China. All I knew about him wats that he was one of the fabulously wealthy group that constituted the international set in Nassau. His lawyer was Sir Stafford Sands who, at that time, regarded me as Enemy No. I to the privileged Old Guard. And so I wasn't surprised when I heard that Sir Victor was among the people who financed the take-over of The Nassau Guatrdiant from Miss Mary Moesley by leaders of the U.B.P. who immediately set out to destroy The Ribune. And sohe was no friend of mine. **+***e**** I have told you in this column before that there is a type of personal journalism that I despise. I don't believe in digging into tilpersoal lives of people just because they hold an important place in life. As you know, The Rzibune doesn't report divorce cases, nor do we print the name of a woman who has been raped, if it can be avoided. We regard these events as human tragedies that should be treated kindly. 1 _t these are the things that most publishers feel are needed to 'build cimrcuation. Wte have proven with 7te Dibune that circulation can be built and newspaper made a successful financial operation without deaing in filth. . It's been a long time since I was active in foreign corresporlncen because, as I have grown older and The Tribune ,has.gt bigger, I found that my work on this newspaper exacted all my time and energy. When I was an active correspondent for foreign newspapers I used to get all kinds of requests for personal details about wnealdWf or distinguished people living here. I either ignored the requests or cabled back to tell the newspaper making the request that I didn't deal in that kind of journalism. A Canadian editor Company Limited handsome, cosmopolitan C.

LIKE A SEAGULL plucking new morsels from an ancient sea, the latest Bahamas Handbook unco vers little-known facts about the Bahamas. The new Handbook, now available in local stores and news stand, presents what is nmobably the first popular treatment of Lucayan history by a professional archaeologist. It ranges over the islands and discovers that our unusual sand actually ~varies from island to island, not just with other countries'. nt penetrates the spectacular blue holes with awardwinning explorer Dr. George Benjamin, and of fers a Canadian naturalist's theory that our underwater G~rand Canyon, the Tongue of Ocean, may be a breeding ground for giant squid. It brings to life turn-of the-century Nassau through a visit here by Bliss Carman, the famous poet who managed to immortalise the Bahamas in verse while conducting a tryst here with his lady love, in a convent. Among the 147 illustrations in the new Handbook is a photospread of "Strange creatures of the Bahamas", from a close-up inguana to a front-on, balloon-shaped porcupine fish. ' nd the 560-page book contains an expanded Out Island section, a comparison of our cost of living with other major cities, 25 separate maps, and a complete traveller's section with tips by such sea veterans as Capt. Milton Pearce, whose cruise passengers included a respected mid-west artist who took his clothes off as Nassau Harbour disappeared, and left them off until civilization came in sight again. The Handbook's handy A-to-Z "blue pages" are again included for easy reference, and the Freeport section HEIRS HISTORIES S DC RESEARCH TITLE INSURANCE ABSTRACTS OF TITLE BIRTH*DEATH.MARRIAGE COPIES- 00UMENTS-WILLS GENEALOGIES never forgave me for a reply I sent him to a cable requesting me to interview Lady Oakes and ask her certain personal questions about her murdered husband. Anyway, one day I received a cable from a London newspaper asking me to interview ~Sir Victor about the disposition of his wealth in his will The message said that members of Sir Victor's family in England were concerned about his devotion to his nurse. They feared be would leave her a large slice of his fortune. The paper wanted a statement from Sir Victor. ***+******* It was common knowledge that Sir Victor was very fond of his Texas nulrse. As well he should be. He had been a crip le ever since his accident in a plane crash in the first world war. She had taken personal care of him for years and had saved his life on more than one occasion when he suffered periodical heart no pr e2 wuld alay tu p wtr Ii nus.th soo ostracise him because it meant something to have such 8 distinguished man at a party. But they always knew that they had to provide a second pace at table for his inseparable nurse, who I didn't like this assignment. But I decided that I would find Sir Victor and let him say what I should do. I found him lazing in the sun alongside a swimming pool at Eve's, his simple home at Cable Beach. Photography was his hobby and he was engaged in snapping everything in sight with a Polaroid camera. Polaroid, as you know, develops a picture within seconds. I introduced myself and he received me cordially but not before he had made a picture of me and presented me with the result. "I have a request from a London newspaper." I told him, handing him the cable. "I don't like it. It's none of their business what you do with your money. But I must send them a reply and I will tell them anything you say. If you want to tell then to go to hell, Ill do that too." He laughed at my approach. This was probably the first time he found himself being interviewed by a reporter who suggested that he should ignore a question. "Just tell them that there is no truth to the story," he said. This I did. A few days later the Sassoon manager ... I think his name was Matthews .... appeared at the front door of my office. As I have told you before, I never closed the doors of my o fc. I came to be known in town as "the man with the open ."I have a confidential message for you from Sir Victor," he said, "may I close the doors?", he asked, closing the two doors and locking them behind him before I could answer. Sir Victor has been thinking about that telegram," he comllt nueh .b c nth edti c urt by is rlaies. He hs einide to marry her because he wants her to have his fortune. He didn't realize until you came to see him with that cable that he was in love with 'Barnsie'." Her name was Evelyn Barnes. "That's wonderful," I said feeling like a Cupid of sorts. "He appreciates the decent way you handled the cable," he continued. "He wants me to tell you that the wedding will take place at Eve's. It is a secret. Only a few of Sir Victor's closest personal friends and 'Barnsie's family have been invited. They are flying to Nassau tomorrow. Sir Victor has sent me to tell you that he wants you to have the exclusive story for The R2ibune and you can also handle it for the world press. Send a photographer-reporter. But keep the secret." Kept the secret and sent my eldest son, Etienne Jr., who is a first-class photographer and reporter, to cover the story. The story was a complete surprise and fell like a bombshell on the social set around the world. ********* After that I got frequent phone calls fromt the Sassoon office. Sir Victor had instructed his staff to give me the exclusive story on anything newsworthy that they were doing. One Saturday night I got home from the office a little late. I had been shopping with my wife. I push the cart at the food shop while my wife shops around among the shelves ... a~ tedious chore but one of the small ways in which a husband can show appreciation for his wife. When we drove up to our house the phone was ringing furiously. I ran in to take the call. "Daddy," the voice at the other end said. It was my son Etienne Jr. calling. "Something must have happened at the Sassoon house. They have been trying to get you for an hour and called to ask me to try to trace you." I phoned the Sassoon house. His manager answered. "Sir Victor had a heart attack and died over an hour agL," he told me. "We have been trying to find you all over the place because we know that Sir Victor would want you to have the story first. We can't hold it much longer. 111 give you an hour to get it rolling." And so ... Sir Victor was faithful even in death in showing appreciation for a small gesture of decency. t********* This was unquestionably a marriage of love. After his death Lady Sassoon .... dear 'Barnsie' ... established "the Sir Victor Sassoon Heart Foundation" which has done valuable work for Bahramiatns suffering from heart disorders who are not in a position to get the medical aid they needed. Many lives ... both young and old ... have been saved by the love and devotion of this fine woman who today lives in the rich memories she cherishes of her dear Victor. ******r***** As I have said many times in this column ... it pays to publish a clean newspaper. ******* A THOUGHT FOR TODAY Sweet memories ... wafted by thy gentle gale Oft up the tide of time I turn my sail To view the ffiry haunts of long lost hours, far fresher flowers.

Supggesed for mature nadien as parental Colour filmed entirely in California, BLACK GIRL succeeds as a dramatic work without resorting to violence, sex or overly excessive language. The dialogue is based on the off-Broadway play by J. E. Franklin and the film was directed by Ossie Davis and stars Brock Peters, Leslie Uggams, Claudia McNeil and Louise Stubbs. Depicting the turbulent life of an adopted girl and her new family, including three other girls who become resentful of her when their mother urges them to pattern their "sister," the film is outstanding, due more to a lack of emotion rather than talent. Two songs, "Black Girl," and "Sisters" are well suited to the onscreen happenings. The film was produced by Lee Savin, a Beverly Hills attorney, with Robert Greenberg as executive producer. Starts Saturday night 8:30 p.m. and playing through Tuesday, ASYLUM plus THE LOST M AN. Sunday showings continuous from 5:00. Monday and Tuesday matinee continuous from 2:00, evening 8:30.

In the first tale, "Frozen Fear" a husband who kills his obnoxious wife a believer of voodoo and puts her in a deep freezer is in turn killed by her dismembered body when it comes to life. When his mistress arrives at the house, she is attracted into the basement of the house where she is also attacked by the limbs which sends her crazy causing her to be put in the asylum. When his mistress arrives at the house, she is attracted into the basement of the house where she is also attacked by the limbs which sends her crazy causing her to be put in the asylum. In the second tale, the supernatural is also portrayed with a tailor's mannikin coming to life to avenge the death of a mysterious dabbler of magic. The life ofa sc yohrrednic is also included The fourth tale is based on th rostory "M nnikins of wreaked in a home for blind old men, as finally the head of the institution is tortured.

CARROLL RIGHTIR'S from the Carro Righter Institut GENERAL TENDENCIES: You have a great deal of energy released today and tonight, but you are all too apt to use it in directions that later prove to be adverse for your welfare, so double-check whether or not your new ventures have proven to be a success, and if not, forget them and concentrate upon outlets that have worked out well. ARIES (Mar. 21 to Apr. 19) Many duties have accumulated that can be gotten out of the way quickly today and for which you have not hours enough during busy work days. But save some time for recreation in p.m Catch some good TV program tonight. TAURUS (Apr. 20 to May 20) Use only proven methods in whatever you do today and make sure your appearance is just night when deahyn withoothesh oE ening is best for amusements GEMINI (May 21 to June 21) Give attention to those affairs at home that do not appear to be vital, but are important just the same. Make the right preparations so you become more successful in the future. Put that fine plan to work. MOON CHILDREN (June 22 to July 21) Make it a point to contact those who are vital to your way of life and increase the goodwill you now enjoy Get your shopping done early, but do it wisely and count your change. Fun in p.m LEO (July 22 to Aug. 21) Fine day for repairs at home that make it more functional and comfortable. Study your financial position well and try to plan so your income is gre teR than your out o. Consult wl ho eperts, t mpovbt your health and charm through right treatments. You have to use tact if you want to put that plan across at group affairs. Show you are a romantic type of person, LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Clear the slate for bigger things ahead b getting through all those tasks at hand. Your attachment has other interests right now, so get busy at whatever else interests you. Make this a productive day, p.m. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Join with congenials who have the same interests as yours and you can have a delightful time together, but try not to hurt their feelings in any way. A good friend needs your assistance. Do your utmost to help. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Get into the outside world but be sure you do not lose your temper with others. Handle vocational details cleverly. Get rid of whatever is blocking the path of your progress. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) You have new interests that appeal to you and are well within your scope of ability, so begin them early. Get out to the right places for self-expression. Show others you appreciate them AQUARIUS (Jan 21 to Feb. 19) You have promises to keep that you have made to others, so do not disappoint them; prove you can be relied upon. Rise above arguments with mate. Get on the constructive side of life. PISCES (Feb 20 to Mar. 20) Sit down with associates and exchange views that can lead to more harmony and profitable operations in the days ahead. Not a good day to try to reconcile with one who opposes you. Await a better day for this. IF YOUR CHILD IS BORN TODAY .. .he or she will be one of those fussy and finicky young people who must be taught early that ordinary cleanliness is sufficient when there are more important things to be done, otherwise your progeny could turn into a household drudge and little else. There is a definite humanitarian quality in this nature and this should be slanted along a life's career for best results. Your youngster 1 he3 Sar m eul te do tmnon cmel.

McAlpine are at present in second position in the Sunday Soccer League table behind Eropigas. Tropigas have 15 pointss from 9 games and have mnly to play Dynamos in their ast match of the season, next week. McAlp in e, however, assumingg they dispose of ,ottom-of-the-table Dynamos tomorrow play Red Lion in their last match of the season. Up until last week the Lions were in the race for the League title alongside Tropigas and McAlpine but Tropigas destroyed the Lions' chances of gaining the Championship by beating them 2-1. The Ingns certainly gave the League leaders a 'run for their money' and McAlpine might well use tomorrow's game against the Dynamos as a very serious practice match in preparation for their clash with the Lions next week. If Tropigas beat the Dynamos next week and MlcAlpine win tomorrow and text week then both teams will 'inish the season with 17 points from 10 matches. With both the League leaders showing excellent form n recent weeks it would seem hat0 a playoff for the League Title between Tropigas and McAlpine is very likely, and should provide a superb climax to the Soccer season. In tomorrow's other match Paradise will play Red Lion.

C. Sweeting Annual Inter-House track and field meet held at the Queen Elizabeth Sports Centre. FOR FES.22 By Ivan Johnson THEPR==SD Ale Sa Football Association will be played on Thursday, February 22 at the Queen Elizabeth Sports Centre* It is understood that the game has been specially arranged through the BAFLA and Leroy Bailey, general manager of the Sonest a Beach Hotel, According to Mr. Geoff Williams, BAFLA president, the Association was contacted several weeks ago by Mr. Bailey, and informed that on February 22 and 23 scouts and players of the New England Patriots, an A merican Football Association team' would be visiting Nassau. The Association realized immediately that this visit by the Patriots would be a good opportunity to display the talents of its best players to the new England Scouts with the hopes that one or two BAFLA players might be 'spotted as potential pro footballers. The popularity of American Football in the Bahamas is undoubtedly increasing and with many Bahamians learning the game while studying m colleges in the States, combined with the recent success of the Miami Dolphins last season a team which hundreds of Bahamians support the game is forging itself rapidly to the forefront of sports in the Islands. 5 PROSPECTS Since the initiation of organized American Football in Nassau last year a number of good players have emerged and Williams feels that there are at least five players who could stir some interest from the New England Patriots. Just recently, former Stingrays player, Ed Smith, became the first Bahamian to be drafted into the National Football League Smith, an outstanding defensive end at Colorado College for the past four years was drafted by the Denver Broncos of the National Football League, in the NFL annual draft, held last month. The Association hopes that after the visit of the New England Scouts a number of Bahamian players might follow Smith into the ranks of the NFL. It is also understood that Mr. Herman Weiskoph, Associate Editor of Sports Illustrated, will be visiting Nassau along with the New England Patriots and following his visit, hopes to write a feature story on American Football in the Bahamas The All Star Game will be between a combined Nassau Jets (unbeaten champions of the 1972 season) and Freeport side and a combined Marlins and Stingrays team |
