But Roose- velt always scorned it as too slow, too ruminating, too popular with old people.

According to Charles Hutchins, nat- uralist, a pure white albino crow was ~aptured by Joseph Cummings, a stu- Aant at a Denver, Col., high school. “I he only pure white crow Mr. Hutchins is quoted. “It has been known that such a bird existed, because a few have been found dead and now are in museums in the cast.
