"Names make news." Last week these names made this news:

On a tour of Atlanta's Federal Penitentiary Primo Camera paused in the yard, raised his monstrous arms over his head, clasped his hamlike hands, smiled a tusky smile in greeting to Prisoner Alphonse Capone. Up behind a second floor window Prisoner Capone returned the gestured greeting, hopped up & down excitedly, pressed his nose to the pane to watch the heavyweight champion amble out of sight.

Wrote Arthur Brisbane in his syndicolumn: "If bullfrogs . . . had a beauty contest, only the legs would count, legs being all of a frog that counts. . . . Something more is asked of a young woman. ... In any beauty contest the forehead should count 60, eyes 20, mouth and figure each 10%."

To honor the President's mother, Manhattan Alderman Michael Pelligrino submitted a resolution to name a thorough fare in his district "Anna D. Roosevelt Parkway." Informed that the name of the President's mother was Sara Delano Roosevelt he amended the resolution. Aldermanic President Deutsch countered with a resolution to name the thorough fare for onetime Park Commissioner Charles B. Stover. Mrs. Sara Delano Roosevelt telegraphed declining the honor, telegraphed again endorsing the name of Parkman Stover. The Aldermen passed the Pelligrino resolution, named the thoroughfare "Sara Delano Roosevelt Park way."

James Roosevelt asked a committee of the Massachusetts Legislature to record him in favor of a bill to permit pari-mutuels at racetracks within the State.

Speaking internationally by radio, 82-year-old Sir Oliver Lodge, British spiritualist, said: "This may possibly prove to be my last talk. . . . Let me take an af- fectionate farewell." A whisper: "Good-by."

For the first time since the World War, German royalty was received by England's King & Queen when the Duke & Duchess of Brunswick went to Buckingham Palace for luncheon.

When his engagement with Socialite Eileen Gillespie was broken, young John Jacob Astor III chose the abandoned wedding-day to start a world-junket with three former schoolmates. By last week he had arrived in Shanghai, where he spent most of his time staring moodily out of the window in his room. Badgered by reporters young Astor blurted out that he was "trying to forget," added: "I don't like to discuss it. What more can I say?" Left alone, he turned again to the window.
