Lord Birdwood Dies; j
Anzac Leader at
Gallipoli and Somme
By the Associated Press
LONDON, May 17.—Field Mar
shal Lord Birdwood, 85, who led
the Australian and New Zealand
Army Corps against the Turks in
the World War I Battle of
Gallipoli, died today.
During the ill-fated Dardanelles
campaign Lord Birdwood organ
ized the evacuation of British
troops from the Gallipoli Penin
sula. He himself was wounded
there in May, 1915.
Later he led Australia- New
Zealand forces against the Ger
mans on the Somme River.
Lifelong Soldier.
First commissioned in 1883, Lord
Birdwood was a professional sol
dier all his active life.
In 1925 he was made British
Army commander in chief in India
and appointed field marshal. His
baronetcy—and a grant of $50,000
—was in recognition of his war
service.
Born William Riddell Birdwood,
the veteran commander was ele
vated to the peerage in 1938, when
he was made first baron of Anzac
and Totnes.
Lord Birdwood’s wife died in
la*/ alter tney had been married
for 53 years. He, himself, suf
fered a heart attack last year.
Tales Still Told.
To the men who served under
him Lord Birdwood was remem
bered as “Birdie.” a slim, soldierly
Englishman who held their trust
and confidence by fearless lead
ership. In city and bush, tales
are still told around Australian
firesides of the almost legendary
“Birdie,” a general who was hap
piest when chatting with privates
in the front line, or bathing from
a jetty on Gallipoli while Turkish
shells burst in the neighborhood.
Lord Birdwood combined schol
arship with soldiering. He prob
ably was the first famous soldier
to become head of a college at a
British university. His election
as master of Peterhouse, Cam
bridge—his father’s old college
caused surprise as he had never
been an undergraduate. That
election came after his military
career of 48 years, all except two
of which were connected with the
army in India.
Born in 1865.
Trim, neat-mustached, he hard
ly changed in appearance in the
20 years after the war and was
a military figure even in scholastic
cap and gown.
He was born September 13,
1865, and was the eldest surviv
ing son of Justice H. M. Bird
wood, judge of the high court of
Bombay and member of the coun
cil of India. He married in 1894
Jeannette Hope Gonville, eldest
daughter of Colonel Sir B. P.
Bromhead, fourth baronet, of
Thurlby Hall. Lincoln, England,
and was the father of one son—
an officer in the Indian army—
and two daughters. The son,
Christopher Bromhead Birdwood,
is heir to the baronetcy.

GU Professor
By th« Associated Press
EAST QUOGUE. N. Y.. May 17.
—Dr. Alfred F. Bliss, 36. associ
ate professor of physiology at
Georgetown University Medical
School, Washington, and a work

atom bomb project, died of can
cer. He had been ill at his home

in the field of medical vision at
the time of his death. He won

York and a master's degree and

He also taught physiology at
Albany Medical College and at
Tufts Medical College. In 1948
he was one of 15 young scien
tists chosen to attend the Ox
ford (England) Conference of the
American Society of Physiolo
gists.
Surviving include his mother,
Mrs. Leonora Bliss Hutee and his
step-father, A. C. Hulse.

Vladimir Peniakoff,
Of 'Popski's Army'
fty th« Associated Press
LONDON, May 17. — Vladimir
Peniakoff, 54, who made British
military history with the hair
raising exploits of his “private
army” during World War II, died
yesterday of a brain tumor.
The Belgian-born Russian, who
persuaded the British to let him
organize “Popski’s private army”
—never more than 200 men—
emerged from the war a legend
ary figure.
Called "Popski” because the
British found his real name too
hard to pronounce, Mr. Peniakoff
accomplished such exploits as
strolling behind enemy lines in
Libya and releasing 60 captured
South African officers and run
ning a jeep column into German
territory in Italy to fill the tanks
from gasoline in German Army
warehouses.
Popski’s army lost only two of
ficers and 12 men during its four
dangerous years of existence. Mr.
Peniakoff himself lost the lower
half of his arm, blown off by a
rifle grenade in 1943. He was
back in action the next day.

HOW MANY ARE
A MILLION OWNERS?
To give you some idea, it wopld take
33 stadiums the size of Griffith Stadium —
home of the Washington Senators—
to hold ad the people who now own
the Bell Telephone business 1
Today the American Telephone and Telegraph
Company has a million owners. No other com
pany has half so many.
These million men and women owners live
in 19,000 communities throughout the United
States. They are in cities, towns and on farms
and from all walks of life.
You, or the man or woman next door —
your grocer or insurance man — your doctor
or lawyer-may be among them. For many
of these owners live in the area served by The
Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Company,
which is associated with A. T. & T. in furnish
ing telephone service to the nation.
Most of them are small stockholders. More
than half are women. Over 350,000 have held
stock for ten years or longer. Some 200,000
are telephone employees. About one family
in every forty-five in the United States is now
an owner of A. T. & T.
You can see that many, many people have
a stake in the telephone business. Their sav
ings have helped give this country the most
and best telephone service in the world. Im
portant in peace, telephone service is vital in
time of national emergency.
