Maurice Tate (in full Maurice William Tate; affectionately known as "Chubby" to his supporters), was a Sussex and England cricketer of the 1920s and 1930s and the leader of England's Test bowling attack for a long time during this period.
This led to the famous quote "Maurice, you must change your style of bowling immediately".
Born on May 30, 1895, as the son of Sussex off spinner Fred Tate, Maurice began his career for Sussex as a hard-hitting batsman and spin bowler with one match in 1912.

 FILS DU PEUPLE - THOREZ, MAURICE
Thorez was General Secretary of French Communist Party from 1931 to his death in 1964.
** This "autobiography" was in fact written by Thorez's secretary, Jean Freville, and had several versions according to the evolution of French Communist Party politics.
Born in 1900, he became member of Socialist Party in March 1919 but after the split between socialists and communists in December 1920, he entered in Communist Youth.

 Communist Party
Maurice Thorez, leader of the party, went to live in Moscow.
It is less than three years since Thorez, the Secretary of the French Communist Party, was declaring that the French workers would never be bamboozled into fighting against their German comrades; he is now one of the loudest-lunged patriots in France.
Jacques Duclos, now became the main spokesman of the underground party in France.

 CHNN 16, Spring 2004, Review Essay: Recent Work on French and Belgian Communism
This seems a significant but still rather limited qualification, at least if one compares Thorez with his British analogue Pollitt.
Similarly, while the significance of Thorez's participation in the 1923 and 1925 CGTU congresses is rightly pointed out by Sirot, the CGTU's close identification with the PCF means that politically speaking this was a rather different sort of grounding in union work from that provided by the TUC and its affiliates in Britain.
Born a decade after Pollitt in 1900, Thorez appears from this perspective as part of a younger 'Leninist' generation politically formed with, and as a part of, the Communist Party.

 FRONT POPULAIRE
Maurice Larkin has argued that the Left had a hard time in stablishing itself in France.
This hard line didn't last long and in his closing speech at the Communist Party conference of the 26th June 1934, Thorez used very different language to articulate the need for what he called une unité d'action with Socialists against fascism.
They were happy, however, that another major party of the Left was willing to enter into an anti-fascist alliance and, on the 7th July 1934 the French Communist and Socialist parties signed a pacte d'unité d'action.

 The World Observer
This time the communists under Thorez form the largest faction in parliament.
As his first official act, Thorez asked the British Expeditionary Force to leave French soil, expressed the friendship of the French people with the Russian brothers and demanded excuses for the German aggression.
The thrust could only be stopped short before Wyborg, where strong Finnish reserves had been prepared behind the so-called Mannerheim Line, a line of fortifications with infantry bunkers and shelters that have been secretly installed during the last three months.

The non-Communist Paris press had it from the government, which had it from its ambassador in Moscow, that French Communist Laurent Casanova had asked for four visas: one for himself, one for Maurice Thorez, one for Thorez' wife Jeannette Vermeersch, and one for a secretary.

The only guy who has a decent office is the head man, Maurice Thorez.
As a footnote to the story, the reporter travelled for a day with members of a "typical" Communist Cell.
Although M. Thorez had extensive proletarian credentials as an ex coal-miner, the fact that he spent WWII in Russia rather than in the resistance weighed heavily against him.

 Thorez
Thorez est un personnage à l'identité constamment exploitée à des fins politiques, c'est pourquoi l'analyse de la construction de l'image thorézienne s'avère indispensable à la compréhension du communisme français.
L'évocation de ses itinéraires dépasse sans cesse la simple reconstitution d'une existence dont les actes s'inscrivent pour partie dans un idéal mythique autour duquel se mettent en mouvement un homme et une organisation partisane.
Enfant des corons, secrétaire général du PCF pendant près de trente-cinq ans, figure de proue du Front populaire, vice-président du Conseil de l'après-guerre, Maurice Thorez est une personnalité majeure de la vie politique française du début des années trente au milieu des années soixante.
