Pronouncing British Names

month of study, Sid Rexnick
announced today the Rexnick
formula for pronouncing British
proper names "The older the
family, the less the name is pro
nounced as it is spelled."
This philological discovery,
guaranteed to make easier the
life of any tourist, stemmed from
the fact that Reznick (pro
nounced Reznick) writes jokes
for auch people as Al Jolson, Ed
wynn, Milton Bene ana jimmy

Events leading up to the nez

Tomorrows Chicken
Holds Spotlight
At Poultry Fair
San Diego, June 21 (U.R)
The "chicken of tomorrow" took
the spotlight at the opening ces
sion of the fourth annual West
ern Poultry Congress in Balboa
park here yesterday.
The chickens were bred for
thicker and plumper drumsticks
and were 12 weeks old the
time it used to take to grow a
three-pound fryer and weighed
about five pounds.
Fors Hatchery and Arbor
Acres Farms, of Fuyallup, Wash.,
entered the best chickens in the
contest.
Second place in the contest
went to Vantress Poultry Breed
ing Farm, of Marysville, Cal.,
which won the state contest Sat
urday. H. L. Shrader, of Washington,
D. C, senior extension poultry
man for the U. S. department
of agriculture, presented the tro
phies to the winning breeders.
Of 400 million meat chickens
that will go to the market this
year, more than a third will be
the improved types developed in
the five year program of grow
ing tomorrow's chickens, Shra
der said.
The convention will close to
morrow evening with the annual
dinner and dance.
"Reznick wanted some fancy
British name for script. He saw
Col. Leveson-Gower's name in a
news item and he asked me how
to pronounce it.
"I did a little checking and
advised him it was pronounced
Loosen-Gore.
"This seemed to excite Rez
nick. He asked me how to pro
nounce Ayscough. another old
family. I wrote back that it was.
naturally pronounced Askew.
Then he wanted to know how
to pronounce Beauchamp, which
is. of course, Beechom.
It's Their Language
" 'Why don't they pronounce
them like they spell them?' Rez
nick inquired. I replied that it
was our language and we could
pronounce it anyway we wait
ed. It was up to the junior part
ner in the language to follow
our lead."
The titled Circencesters pro
nounce It Sissiter. Cockburn is
Coburn. Colquhoun is Cohoon.
Hawarden is Harden.
Then there is the family Maj
oribanks. It sounds like Marsh
banks. Menzies is pronounced
Mengis. The Myerscoughs call
themselves the Maskews. Meux
is Mews.
Two gems from the Reznick
collection are Tyyrwhitt, pro
nounced Territ, and Wriothesley,
pronounced Roxley.
With such examples Reznick
feels that nny American can
make a good guess at other Eng
lish names. But he warns against
pitfalls, such as Smith and Jones.
There are places in the upper
(social) register where they are
pronounced Smyihe and Johns.

Fire Chiefs of
State to Convene
Here in 2 Years
William P. Roble, fire chief at
Salem and president of the Ore
gon Fire Chief's association,
today confirmed officially the
fact that the association will
meet in Medford in 1952. The
group last met here about 12
years ago.
fcd Canoose, newly appointed
Medford fire chief, extended the
convention invitation during the
recent meeting of the association
in S al e m. His invitation was
backed up by messages from
Mayor Diamond Flynn and the
Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce.
Enjoyed Hospitality
Jack A. Hayes, deputy state
fire marshal who acts as unoffi
cial secretary of the association,
said in a letter received here,
that the association will be "de
lighted at the opportunity to
return to Medford, where we
enjoyed such fine hospitality
some tweleve years ago."
The OFCA was organized In
1919 with a "handful" of mem
bers, and the first annual con
vention was held the following
year in Portland. In the 30
years since, it has grown until
467 delegates attended the Salem
convention.
With New Group '
At the meeting two years from
now, the chiefs will hold a joint
session with the state's newest
fire protection group, the
Association of Directors of Rural
Fire Protection districts, which
was organized this month. It
has a potential membership of
600 or more, and their chief
interest is devoted to the ad
ministration of rural fire dis
tricts.
The 1952 meeting will be for
three days, with one-half day
devoted to outside demonstra
tions and drill competitions, at
which residents will be welcome.
