claim by Dolntlng out an old In Churchill Rated Greatest Man Of Half-Century Jury to one of Rusty's legs and by photographs of the cat they had In Belmont. Further, they say, the cat knows his name, sleeps on Mildred's bed Just as it did In Belmont and has as "one of the half-century's greater politicians," Time says: "Sometimes wrong, often right, he fought his way toward the heart of every storm. "In 1900, Churchill, like his contemporaries, looked forward to pleasant years. Like his con temporaries, Churchill was to struggle through depths and rise to heights unimaginable to 1900." In ' summarizing the period, Time weaves Churchill's career into the International picture. . "His chief contribution was to warn of rocks ahead, and to lead the rescue parties. He was not the man who designed the ship, what he did was to launch the life boats. That a free world survived in 1950, with a hope of more progress and less calamity, was due in large measure to his exer tions." Time adds that Churchill "as mobilizer of two great national defense efforts "two world wars' unwittingly contributed more ..an all the Fabians to the tri umphs of the socialist state." Cat Locates Its Owners In Trip Of 1,000 Miles CHICAGO UP) Rusty, an orange and white cat, li a most remarkable animal, according to Joseph J. Toste, his wile and their three daughters. ' Toste, a grocer, moved his family to suburban Forest Park last September from Belmont, Mass., a Boston suburb, and left Rusty with his father In Bel mont. . ' ' Rusty, he said, showed up at his home last week. Toste said he was so amazed he telephoned his father, John Toste. He said his father told him Rusty left his home Sept. 28, soon after the family had moved to Forest Park. "He couldn't believe the cat found us," Toste said. "He thought It had Just run away." According to the Toste family, Rusty apparently did run away and without ever having been in the Chicago area before travel ed about 1,000 miles from Massa chusetts to Forest Park. Some of NEW YORK, Dec. 29. UP) Winston Churchill Time'maga zine editors say is the "Man of the half-century." The portrait of the wartime British prime minister by Ameri can artist Ernest Hamlin Baker, is on the cover of the Jan. 2 Time which contains a 16-page supple ment "The Half-Century." "No man's history," Time says, "can sum up the dreadful won derful years 1900-50. Churchill's story comes closest."- Describing the British leader nthpr habits which are identical, Dr. W. A. Young, president of the American Cat association and director of the anti-cruelty so- cietv. didn't scoff at their story. "It sounds beyond comprehen sion that the cat couia nave iouna them in all America," Young said. "But I certainly wouldn't aav It couldn't haDDen. A cat's Toste's neighbors have told him senses are incredibly keen and, although It sounds incredible, it's possible." it must be Just a similar cat.

Many Veterans . "Forgotten" As Hospital Patients WASHINGTON CP) Some veterans now in mental hospitals could step back into normal life if their relatives and friends would help them, the Veterans administration believes. But the nation's "forgotten men are shunned by those who knew them before their Illness; one third of the more than 52,000 mental patients in veterans hos pitals have not had a visitor in over a year, a VA survey shows. One man, a World War I vet eran, has not been visited In 12 years; another, in numb despair, made up a "family" from hospital attendants when his own wife and children ignored him. Telling this story oi tragic neg lect, the VA explained that fami lies "just drift away" or want nothing to do with "crazy" men. It told of "Mr. X," 58, who en tered a VA hospital In 1944, and since then has been ignored by his wife and several children. They have neither written to him nor visited him, said the VA. Sensitive about this disinterest, Mr.'X has "adopted" a family. It consists of the ward physician, whom he fondly calls "Dad" or "Uncle Georee,r and the social worker handling his case vim Is If Mr. X doesn't see one mem ber of his "family" every day, he becomes depressed and reveals his feeling of being unwanted. The statement said "there are men in VA hospitals who are mentally and physically capable of returning to normal ife and in some , cases earning a living if they could return to their homes and families."
