The veteran righthander had celebrat- ed his 38th birthday. He had been tossing 'em up to the Bruins' op- ponents since 1926. But Grimm suddenly discovered half his hurling staff on the hos- pital list. Larry French broke a finger. Curt Davis tore a ligament in his pitching arm. Tex Carleton chipped a bone in his elbow. To make matters worse, Bill Lee was slow in rounding into form. Tarzan Parmalee, acquired in the trade which sent Lou Warneke to St. Louis last winter, fziled to come {up to expectations. What Grimm would have done without Root is a question. With the season one-fifth over Root's name had appeared in the lineup one-third of the time. He was the leading Cub pitcher in addition to having worked the greatest num- ber of games. It is strange, indeed, that Root should have been of so much help. For years the experts have been !counting him out. | When Root took part in 48 games (in 1927, winning 26 and losing 15, it was freely asserted he had ruined his pitching arm. When he failed to show his former -effectiveness the following year, winning only 14 games, the experts were ready with their “I told you so's.” The experts have had to eat those words many times since. Root has teamed with Gabby Hartnett to form the Cubs’ bat- tery for a dozen seasons. There ‘ian't another pair in the majo with a record like that. One of Root's greatest disap- {pointments is that he has been un- able to win a World Series game. He has had his chances, but has always been thwarted.

From Seward, Mr. Telkamp is to | make the Golden Belt Tour to the { Interior, visiting Palmer, then go- count very heavily on Charlic Root yIENNA, June 19.—Lite has become ing to Fairbanks by rail and re- turning to the Coast over the Richardson Highway. Mr. Telkamp is making his first visit to the Pacific Northwest and ,to Alaska, and finding the Terri- tery so much to his liking that he g wished he had more time to spend than the two weeks he has allowed himself. He has his cameras with him, and expects to return south with a great number of pictures of Alaska, including shots of game and Matanuska. He stated that it is most likely that one of the fea- ture writers on the Collier’s staff, W. B. Courtney, will visit Alaska this summer. “Mr. Courtney had !long planned to visit Alaska this |year,” he said, “and would have been here by now except for the | situation in Spain. He has been marking time in the East to see if it will be necessary for him to go to Spain, but said, just before I left on my trip, that he thought Spain would keep and that he could see Alaska first.” In company with John Kabel, of Dayton, Ohio, internationally known outdoor photographer who is also enroute to Seward aboard | the Baranof, Mr. Telkamp journey- ed to Mendanhell Glacier this morning, but returned without pic- tures because of the weather, but jall wet because of a fall into a puddle. Mr. Kabel has visited Alaska six or seven times in the past nine | years, last coming north two years ago. He plans to photograph orig- inal scenes in the Seward district, iremaining there about a week, then returning to the States. “I have always found Alaska wonder- ful country,” Mr. Kabel said. “I return from each of my trips north with a greater appreciation of its beauties.” S BOUND FOR COLONY Three families bound for Matan- |uska are passengers from Seattle to Seward aboard the steamer Bar- anof, in port here today. Heading for the colony are: Mr, and Mrs. Anton Anderson, of Palmer, with their two daughters, Jean and | Patty; John and Elizabeth Chris- itianson, of Sheboygan, Wisconsin; and Mr. and Mrs. T. F. A.
