There was a report out of De- troit last weak-end to the effect that the St. Louis Browns had of-

fered ace pitcher Ned Garver to the Detroit Tigers in return for third baseman George K-cll and other players. The report was car- ried in the Detroit Free Press and stated that the Browns wantcd to involve a half-dozen other players in what would have been one of the biggest bnsebnll deals in history. Rad Rolfe, Tigers manager firmed that there had been trade

would be silly for the Tigers as the Detroit team needed lnfieldeis. not pitchers.

O C I

From Relies aiatemellt it would appear that the Brownies trndtm: price must have been very steep. it would have to be in oixlcr to class I deal for Garver silly. Lust. yenr Garver was one of the few hig lea- gue pitchers who was able to enter 20 game winners club and the first pitcher in more than 20 years to accomplish such a feat while hurl- in; for a. last place team. As a mat- ter of fact there are I lot of base- ball men who rate Garver as the best pitcher in the American Lea- gue if not in baseball today.

. . . For a while this season the Brownies ace had some rough go- ing. He started in brilliant fashion by hurling two shutouts and then he seemed to lose the touch for a time. in successive starting assign- ments he lasted five innings a- gainst the Chicago White Sox. six innings against the Red Sox and only three frames agaist the Wash- ington Nats. Last Sunday he show- ed I return to form, however, with I four hit effort against Cleveland although he lost the game 1-0 to Bob Lemon. The latter pitched a two-hitter and to our mind is the best hurler in the AL.

. . Garver has had a..lifetime record in the American League of 54 wins and 61 losses, very good when you consider that he has been working for the Brownies. who, until this uason were the doorrnata of the circuit. His most formidable focs have been the New York Yankees. Last year he started four times against the Yanks and lost. every decision. ills career record against them is a measly two wins as a- gainst 13 defeats. His best showings have been against the Athletics. whom he has beaten ll times in 13 tries.

On I Journey from Dease Lake Landing in the Cassiar country of British Columbia to Level Moun- min (the -"divide" between the Pacific Coast rivers and the Liard and other rivers of the McKenzie system), the trail in one place led through a grassy hollow of two or three acres in extent. When the old timer partner and I got about 30 or -10 miles beyond. and into a very grassy .moose pasture. be ad- monished me to keep a few steps ahead of our dogs, which had our provisions in dog packs on their backs. This was to prevent them from stampeding after moose. I must have been sleep-walking in the drowsy August weather-flghh ing mosquitoes also-because the dogs did get a few feet ahead of me. I noticed the dogs perk up their ears. A short distance away three moose were walking in single file, reminding one of elephants in a circus parade. I thought it would be easy to sprint ahead of the dogs. but several days tramping over moss and grass had I grievous slowing effect. The dogs qulckened their speed at the same instant as 1 did, and the result was is near tragedy.

They got away to parts unknown with nearly all' our provisions. We had only some coffee. a can of meat and a can of desslcated pota- toes left. It was decided that I re- turn to Dease.Lake at once. There was continuous daylight there It that time, '

Imagine the surprise when com- ing to the grassy hollow 'to find it changed to a lake of clear water fifteen or twenty feet deep. it gave quite a shock but it wasn't hard to skirt around. The partner (Frank Finn), a former Nova Scotian. re- trteved the dogs I few days later. We counted 17 moose feeding in the grassy oval - about four or five square miles. I came -back to Dense Landing and with another fellow paddled up Deaae Lake in I canoe (30 miles), and proceeded to Tele-
