Let the Locks Fall Where
 They May

While plentitudinous hirsuite adornments are proudly Haunted by a portion of the chins of the crew members of the Coast Guard cutter Tallapoosa recently returned from long weeks in the Aleutians, others have prepared themselves for their pending return to the bustle of super civilization, as iound in the States, by resorting to the shears and the razor; five blue-clads have presented to the skies of Juneau shining pates shorn of the last ves- tige of fuzz.
 One of the quintette, though with out flowing mane, has found his at tachment to jay-hair too strong to bear parting, so, while the wind may whistle through his beard, no breeze could stir the stumps that marks the spot where once curly black locks held sway.

Sport SLu1sfS

Youth may be served most of the luscious sports dishes but it is mighty difficult to keep the veterans from showing an occasional finger into the pie.
 Take 38-year-pld Charlie Root for example Right now, Charlie is doing more than his share to keep the Cubs in the thick of the pen nant race. When the Cubs hurling staff was riddles with injuries ear- Her in the season. it was Root who did yeoman's work to keep the team above water.
 When the Cubs and Giants squar- ed off at the Polo Grounds in their recently crucial" series it was Un- cle Charlie who started the Cubs on the right foot. Root took up the burden of beating King Carl Hub bell in the series opener after the Giants had gotten off to flying start with a couple of runs off Curt Davis in two-thirds of the first in- ming.
 They were counting Root out last winter. His 1886 record showed only three victories against six de- feats. Charlie didn't pay much at tention to his obituaries.
 Another veteran campaigner, Winner Allison, returned to war against the rising youngsters. The Texan returned for one final fling on the tennis courts with his heart set on winning the Longwood Bowl outright. He had to knock over a very promising youngster. Gilbert Hunt, in the final round to win the historic trophy for the third time, so that he could take it home. Now Allison is ready to devote his spare moments to golf.
 Gene Sarazen tok his mind off his Connecticut farm long enough to show the young upstarts how golf is played when he stepped out to take first money from fine field in the $l0O00 Chicago Open. It was his first major triumph since his famous double eagle earned him tie and paved the way to victory in the 1885 masters tournament at Augusta.

Administration leaders attempted
today through a round of parleys tc
compose deep-set differences between

would deny that group the right to;

financial affairs of private citizens.
g. Hand over to any Treasury en-
ploye its powers of investigation.
Chairman O'Connor said the action
was unanimous and that he personally
would stand by it.
The Ways and Means Committee
opposes the amendments, however,
and O'Connor agreed to take the
matter up again with members of his
own committee.
Representative Rayburn, Democrat.
of Texas, the majority leader. spoke
of a possibility Of working out some
adjustment that would prevent a
floor fight. So did Chairman Dough-
