Howard F. Root '51 won $25 for his detective ability in the Herald Traveller comic strip contest which has just ended, it was announced last night in the Boston paper.
Root's prize was one of many given for the "best" solutions to the problem of where a stolen one-million dollars was hidden in the cartoon mystery. Root said that he believed the money was in a safety deposit box in Kernsey Jones' Bank, and that Jones carried the key around his neck.
