ES . oI wonder how much Pop had to pay for Dick Horan?" Craven queried. "I'll bet it was plenty. He certainly is one strapping catcher. You know," - if Horan comes through maybe Pop has a team at last. It's a gamble and it's up to Horan mostly. I'll bet Horan has just about put Pop on the rocks financially, He'd better come through." Craven considered a moment. "I may take back some of the nasty things I sald, kid, and place some of my money on the Blues, after ali, next time I go down- to Tony's," he ended with a | glance at Doc Biers. "Are you going cuckoo?" Mullins asked. "You know you can't depend on a rookie, and Pop has two of them, Doyle and Doran."

"Say, Terry." Mullins called, "you were with the teams while they were training and on their exhibition games. What's the real story about Doyle and Whitper, the Philadelphia pitch: er?" 4 "No story.

'They'll be interesting to watch. We may have some fun yet." "I" hope Whitper doesn't try any- thing funny with Doyle.

K. of the Ottawa Journal Editorial Staff : High up on the sloping roof of the world on the west coast of Greenland in. latitude 69 degrees four minutes north lies Disco Is- land. Here within a stone's throw of the small town of Godhavn, seat of government, Dr. Morten P. Por- sild, botanist, ethnographer and Arc- ite explorer, has been in charge of a biological station for 32 years. Knighted by the King of : Den- mark "and holding memberships in practically all the learned societies in the civilized world, Dr. Porsild, on September 1 observed his' 64th birthday. = Perhaps observed.it is hardly the word, for to this distin- guished savant each birthday is jst an annoying reminder of years ad- ded to an' altogether too short "lifetime" in which to accomplish all the things he wants to do. Besides being an international figure in the world of science, Dr. Porsild is well-known .to Canadians. In fact he has visited Ottawa on two- occasions and is the father of Erling Porsild, who as a botanist in the National Museum here is follow-. ing in his father's footsteps. Also he has been host to. members of successive Canadian Arctic Expedi- tions. The whole. world has' heard of the reindeer trek from the Napak- tolik mountains in Kotzebue Sound region? in Alaska to Kittigazul, on the east bank of the Mackenzie River, ; . It is, generally known, however, that Erling Porsild, now a -naturat- ized Canadian, carried out grazing surveys. in the North West Teiri- torries which: established the feasi- bility 'of the drive. When it was initiated he was placed ip, chargé of what has been termed one of the most remarkable Arctic sagas yet |. known. Modest and unassuming he, received recognition that is dearer to the heart of the scientist than gold when he was called upon to address the Royal Geographical) Society in London. His subject was "A Four:Year Trail from Alaska to the Mackenzie Delta." It is a plain unvarnished tale which through its sheer simplicity com- mands attention and respect especial- ly from 'those who even have faint pretensions to inclusions in the Are- tic brotherhood. _.Ten -years ago the writer was af- forded an opportunity that pernaps comes only once in a lifetime. - He was selected to accompany a Can- adian Government Arctic: Expedition as historian, Godhaven was the first port of call.

Whether served to two or three close friends, or a dozen acquaintances, it is the time for relaxation and pleas- ant chat. ' A knee-height tea table is often used, though any size will do. Often a large tray set on a carved hase is preferred. A tea wagox is a prac tical aid to entertaining of this sort.

Cream aad cube sugar, and a pretty dish of lemon or lime slices with tiny fork, accomn- pany the pretty cups, small spoons and little linen tea napkins. To serve with tea, sandwiches come first, Trim little triangles, cir cles or squares;.rolls, pinwheels rib- bons--these are the things that make the sandwich tray at tea time the most popular feature of the alter- noon. One or two kinds, preferably of contrasting flavor, are sufficient, though more. may be added. Oceas- jonally open sandwiches, made from a savory paste spread on salted waf- ers, are inviting. Tiny hot biscuits, split, buttered and spread withvmarmalade or Jam, offer quick solution to the problem of what to serve on cool days.| They may. be prepared "early. in the day, to be popped into the oven just be- fore tea time. : Cinnamon ,toast,. and toasted cheese straws, vie with the biscuits for fav-- or.

An astronomical and a - seismographical observatory is also provided, _ Why did Dr. Porsild go to such an out-of-the-way spot to carry out his life work? The answer is that he was the first to realize the possibilities the Danish colony held as the setting for .an Arctic laboratory for scien: tific purposes. In Greenland today conditions pre- vail similar to those that existed. in North America and Eurape during the great ice age. Covering an area of 800,000. square miles Greenland is the largest island in the world but of this area but one-seventh is free of ice while the remaining six- sevenths are: covered by an ice-cap which in places is thought to be 4,000 feet thick. : ; It thus affords unparalleled oppor- tunities for the study. not only of problems related to glaciology and the probable causes of the advent Tard disappearance of the ice ages that geologists. know have occurred in Europe and America during the Pleistocene cpoch of Earth's history, problems 'that have a direct bearing on how plants and animals (includ- ing the genus homo) were able to survive during the ice age.
