the New York Yankees, took a day off because he had a headache—
and one can only imagine that his headache has got-ten a lot worse! Pipp was replaced in the lineup by Lou Gehrig, who has
not missed a game since.
DOGS TO THE RESCUE
NOME, Alaska: In late January, diphtheria struck the children of this small town of 1,500. The hospital in Anchorage had the
medicine that could save their lives, but it was almost 900 miles away. A train could transport the medicine to Nenana, but
that left 674 miles to go. The rivers were frozen, the snow-covered road was impassable, and the only two airplanes in Alaska
were in storage for the winter.
It was decided that dogsled teams would relay the medicine from Nenana to Nome. With gale-force winds and temperatures reaching
40 degrees below zero, the mission seemed to be doomed. But after 127.5 hours, a 13-dog sled team led by canine Balto reached
Nome with the life-saving medicine. Now, thereis talk that teams will gather in years to come to honor this feat, per-haps
with an annual dogsled race to be called the Iditarod.

ENTERTAINMENT
DO NOT PANIC
When you go to the movie theater to see the very first animated flim, remember that the rolling eyes and the cigar smoke are
cartoons—not real. Recently when people visited the nickelodeons to see
the Great Train Robbery,many thought the bullets were real.Well,just as no bullets were flying off the screen then,no eyes
will roll into the audience now. So stay seated and enjoy the show.
THANKS, TEDDY!
