1t had begun TO snow, big, heavy
flakes, drifting with the wind, quickly
whitening the landscape. The slight
marks Of the trail were almost Instant
ly obliterated, but the low range Of
hills ahead were a sufficient landmark,
and she forced her horse into a swift
pace; riding with her head lowered,
but with watchful eyes peering
through the snow curtain.
She was alone now; free with moth
ing intervening between her and Ger
lasche. Her neart bounded with the
elixir of success-she would bring
back the doctor to Macklln. She felt
no doubt any more.
The direct trail circed just within
the outer range Of the sand hills,
making 1t impossible for her to mis-
take the way even In that maze OF
snow. She rode more carelessly now
that she was safely out of sight, and
free from any possibility Of pursuit.
The horse, with lowered head seemed
to feel the urgency, and plunged for
ward eagerly. Suddenly as they swept
around sharp corner, seeing and
hearing nothing to warn of any other
presence in that solitude, they came

1t was a long, nerve-racking wait

Occasionally they spoke, but generally

Yankees shut out the Red Sox to 0

last five innings. and had expert sup
port IN all the innings. Wally Schang
found his batting eye to the extent
of four hits, but Babe Ruth was a
huge failure, not to say fizxle. He was
an easy out on three occasions with
men on bases. Ward. Schang. Piercy
and Peck collaborated for one brief
spell, and did the rapping that won for
the Yankees.
Bobby Roth was in the New York
