...actual expedition was to set out. Early the next morning we left the car and with an excellent packer-guide, saddle horses, and two pack mules, we continued up the narrow canyon of Cottonwood Creek, a roaring mountain torrent heading in numerous lakes under Mt. Langley. The trail wound steeply up between pine trees and rocks for nine miles, when we emerged from the canyon onto a sloping plateau at about 10,000 feet elevation, where the stream ran gently through pine forests and meadows and was followed six miles further to our camp at one of the lakes under...
...Holiness, Pope Pius XI. First arrived at the Vatican three Mexican hierarchs. To them His Holiness spoke words, of comfort and hope, promised to give Mexico a rich ostensorium which he received at the recent beatification of the French Revolutionary martyrs (TIME, Oct. 25).

Made of wood, it contains pieces of olive trees from Gethsemane. It had been blessed in the Basilica of the Holy Cross...

I will be in the hospital for a week...
Fifth Game. Once more Pennock, as deliberate as a garbageman stood against Sherdel, vehement, in baggy trousers. For five innings Sherdel, famed for his delayed ball, pitched perfectly; his slow curves wound whitely up to the plate and winked out of sight into Catcher O'Farrell's glove while Yankee batsmen swore and pirouetted. But in the ninth inning Pinch Hitter Paschal smashed a single to centre scoring Gehrig, tying the score, 2 to 2. An extra inning gave the Yankees victory. Score: New York. 3; St. Louis...
