A Jewish infant born here today was named Victor to signify the conviction of British victory over Hitler. The infant, it seems, decided to arrive a little before schedule and while a hurry call was sent out for an smbulence to transport the mother to the maternity hospital, an Anzac officer volunteered the use of his car provided that the child, when born, be named Victoria if a girl, or Victor if a boy. The parents gladly accepted the proviso and now they have difficulty in preventing the Anzacs from spoiling the baby by showering it with gifts.
