Sportsmen, hunters, trap- pers, fur dealers and government bu- Teaus are sending displays. Potential evening wraps will be- dis- played by live ermine and Russian sable, while models will show the finish- ed_products in fashion revues. Exhibits of methods and weapons of the hunt in ancient and modern times and methods of manufacture will show the progress of the fur from animal to wearer.

Frederick Tilney Not Greatly Impressed by Present- Day Celebrities. NEW YORK (N. A. N. A)—The celebrities of the earth impress Dr. Prederick Tilney less than they impress Eome people because he believes that the unnamed and unphotographed beast-man who first sought refuge in a cave probably did more for human progress than almost anybody has done since. Dr. Tilney, neurclogy professor at Co- Jumbia University, has on his desk & plaster cast of the skull of the Pfit- down man, supposed to. have lived in England 100,000 years ago, and he keeps insisting that improvement in the brain and its use-is just about the most dmportant business of humanity. Remarking that people have devel- oped only one-fifth of the brain power that is possible, he now calls for schools that would train young men for the profession of government. Grad- uates would serve an apprenticeship and gradually rise by their merits, ‘Man has made great progress,” he says, “in_controlling the forces of the pal Federation of Social Service and has| | challenged the attitude of the “absentee shareholder,” who has supplanted, in his opinion, the “absentee landlord” as an obstacle ‘to+ fair distribution "of ‘wealth. earth, but little or no progress in con- trolling his own nature.” "And in part he attributes the lack of advance to €lipshod ways of choosing leaders, Lo -§CopyEight 1980.)
