"Alas, I must confess: I am

the temple know me, except on
Rosh Hashonah and Yom Kip-

PRINCETON REPORT .. .
Albert Einstein is still one of
th e active consultants of the
group of scientists who are
%Tilting on the perfection of the
atomic bomb. . . Which reminds
us to relay a story Leonard Ly-
on , tells of a conversation Dr.
Abraham Flexner, director of
the Institute for Advanced Stu-
dksi had with Prof. Einstein.. .
--- 1. Flexner was complaining
.n.it Einstein was forever lend-
ing his name to various causes.
. "Political refugees have a
priblem — they come to you,
aml you lend your name," he
pointed out. .. "Soviet relations
committees, Palestine commit-
tee;, atomic bomb committees-
' -ybody comes to you. .. But
3u always have to say yes?
Why don't you do what I
out n do — say no?" .. "But if
I dd," Einstein retorted, "your
L ank would be Einstein and
min, would be Flexner."
ON OUR SHORES .. .
Orchids to courageous, stub-
born Dr. Adolph M. Koch of
Sew Jersey, who succeeded in
organizing the Essex College of
Medicin e and Surgery in New-

Only medical school in the United

ABOUT PEOPLE .. .
We were right, some columns
ago, about Dr. Stephen S. Wise's
honorary degree from the He-
brew Union College of Cincin-
nati. . . The official announce-
ment has just been made. . . B.
Z. Goldberg, chairman of the
American Committee of Jewish
Writers, Artists and Scientists,
is now on his way to Moscow.
.. Did you know that the Dean
of Canterbury, Hewlett Johnson,
who visited this country last
week, once was a co-worker of
Charlie Chaplin in a machine
shop in England? . . Playwright
Irwin Shaw, now out of the Ar-
my, is Hollywood-bound, and in
the meanwhile has started work
on a novel, his first. . Dramatic
director Harold Clurman is go-
ing to switch to the other side
of _the footlights for a change.
.. He's going to conduct a dra-
ma column for Tomorrow mag-
azine. . . This month marks the
fortieth anniversary in show
business of Sophie Tucker, the
red-hot mamma of grandpa's
day.
IRONY OF FATE .. .
The late Col. Joel E. Spin-
garn, founder of the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People, had as his
aim the abolition of all discrim-
ination against Negroes, and
was particularly concerned about
doing away with segregation of
Negroes in separate schools. . .
So now Washington, D. C., is
planning to honor Col. Spingarn's
memory by naming a school af-
ter him — and it is being plan-
ned as a high school for Negroes
only.
