Frank Belke's “Sylphs" have ar- rived and the consensus of the men foil: around the Montreal Forum is that they are the big- gest improvement made in the west end amphitheatre in years.

‘ihe "Sylphs" are l3 usherettes fflllaged by general manager Selke of the Canadian Arena Company to guide the higher paying box

and promenade customers to their seats. They made their bow last night when Canadians

opened the National Hockey Lea- rns season against New York Rangers.

One oi the fans had an out- spoken reaction.

“Thegirls are a blessing. Just look how quiet and orderly it was along the promenade last night. They have a quieting influence on u: males."

The girls themselves like the lob which for most of them is just part tirns work. They are hockey fans and they welcome the opportunity of seeing their fav- orite players in action and being 001d for it at the same time.

Malor League baseball pald at- ltenrlance increased 63 per cent in ‘i946 over I945 to set records in moth leagues. unofficial but virtu- .ally complete figures showed to- day.

1 The American League drew 9.- |666A2l compared with 6.0W,3% inst year. and the National Lea- gue drew 8.946.283 compared to

5.372.819. Last year's totals were ithe high-est up to that time.

New York Yankees with 2.309,- 029 broke the Major League rec-i ‘ord 0f 1.485.166 set by Chicago Cubs in 1929. Although the Yan- kees wound up in third place and played under three different man- agers. their total was more than double last year's 1.014.906.

Two other clubs also exceeded the Cubs‘ 1929 mark-Brooklyn in the National League with 1,- |'l96.l55. which was tops in that circuit. and Detroit in th-e Am- erican League with 1.722.590.

The American League champ- ions, Boston Red Sox. drew 1.- 416.944.

‘ Hitherto 1.000.000 paid attend- lance has been accepted in statis- tical-minded baseball as the ulti- mate goal of any club owner. Ten ‘of the l6 teams battered that fig- ,ure in 1946, compared to five last year and none in i944.

1 To New York Giants went the distinction of being the only last place team to attract more than 1.000.000 customers, 1,234,738. Two other second division clubs also nettered 1.000.000. the Phillles and Cleveland Indians.

The Phillies. emerging from a long residence in the National League cellar, made the greatest increase of any team in the cir- cuit. with a gain of 734.856 over the 194-5 total attendance of only 310.389.

Each club in each league, broke its previous attendance record except for Philadelphia and St ,L0iii5 in the American League. ‘and Chicago and Cincinnati in the National.

(BY Sgt. John C. Woods) (Ci-Iilflght- I946, by The Associated Press) HEIDELBERG, Germany, Oct. l8-(AP)—I hanged those 10 Nazis at Nuernberg and I'm proud of it. That was a job that needed do- 111i! for a long time. I did a good lob of it, too. Everything ciicked perfectly, I've hanged 347 people in the last 15 years and I never 59W a 1111181111; Z0 off any better. I‘m only sorry Goerlng escaped. I

wanted him especially.

I wasn't nervous. I haven't got any nerves. A fellow can't afford to have nerves in this business.

But this Nuernberg job was one I F9511)’ wanted to do. I wanted that assignment so bad I stayed over here after I could have gone back home just to do it. Those guvs really deserved hanging.

All Arrogant

They were all arrogant. You could see they hated us. Old Jew- halter (Julius) Strelcherjnnked right oi; me when he said: “The Bolsheviks will hang you. too. some day." And I looked him back, right in the eye. They can't bother me.

"There's not much to tell about the actual hangings. They went off just like anv routine hangings. Ten men in 103 minutes, That's fast work.

Only one of them even noved after the drop. That was Stretcher, the one who shouted “Hell I-Iit- ler." He kicked a little while, hut. not long. Another one. (Fritz) Snuekcl. I think, started to shout “I-Ieil Hitler" too. after I put the hood over his head, but I cut him off short with the rope.

I used a different rope and dif- ferent hon-d on each man. I fixed the nooses and stretched the ropes myself to make sure nothing would go wrong.

1' want to put in a good word for those G. I.'s who helped me’ on that Nuernberg job. Only three of them had ever helped in a hanging before, but I trained them all for three weeks and they all did a swell job. I noticed they were ready for a stiff drink after- wards. though. So was I. I am try- ing to get those soldiers who help-

ed me o promotion, and I think“

they will get it too. They don’ want their names mentioned,

As for my name, well. I guess i

it's too late to keep my name out of l-t. It is too well known over‘ here already, After I started hang- ing these German war criminals Inst year somebody tried to poison me here in Germ-any, and seine- body shot at me in Paris, but the poison only made me sick and the bulk-t missed me. i

The way I look at this hanging job, somebody has to do it. I got, Into it kind of by accident, years ago in the States. I attended o

hanging as a witness. and tlv hangman asked me if I‘d mind helping. I did. and later I took

over myself.

I Just don't let it bother me. There was one soldier went crazy. though, after helping me on a five-man execution. Something went wrong on one of those hang- ings and the guy cracked,

Now that this Nuernberg lob is over. I'm ready to go back to the States. and I‘m planning mi leav- In o few days. But I may come back to Germany. ‘There are more than I20 war criminals waiting to be hanged. including those Q sen- tenced for the Malmedy massacre.
