In his office in Pittsburgh's downtown “Golden Triangle,” Sturdy declared he not only hopes to find the mine, but also more than $90,000,000 in gold, stored there four centuries ago by Spanish priests, the legends claim. In the 16th century, so the story goes, Spanish missionaries in the southwest accumulated great hoards of gold from In- dian miners. The gold was to be shipped to Spain, but Spanish ship captains that could be trusted were rare on the California coast. The priests hid the gold until “safe” arrived, then it was trans- ported. from Arizona by pack mule. Last. of these priests was Fran- cist. Before he could ship his store back to Spain, he was re- Schools Must Pay Sales Tax on Coal State sales tax officials declared Thursday that North Dakota school districts must pay the consumer's sales tax on coal delivered whether supplied by resident or non-resident dealers. called. He stored the metal, tradition is, somewhere hind the “Iron Door,” Escalante mine. Francist took with him maps the be- of the cuts through the Catalina moun- tains. It was on the maps the aged padre recorded the amount of his hoard. “It was 2,500,000 ounces,” Sturdy said. “At present gold values, about $90,000,000.” About 50 years ago, as Sturdy told the story, a great-great- nephew of Francist came over here from Spain with his uncle's maps. He hired # prospector, known now only as “Old Pear- the hills for months with no suc- cess.

Machine gun bullets spurting from 42 fighting airplanes, and trapped in the thick of it, brought Major Jesse ©. Creech of London, Ky., his great- est thrill.

Van Horne, chief of the North Dakota motor vehicle department, Predicted Thursday state automobile and struck registrations this year would be the greatest since 1929. Van Horne said he expected 175,000 registrations to be filed with the de- partment by December 31. The de- partment’s all-time high was in 1920 when registrations on all types of mo- tor vehicles reached 188,000. Checking figures he said a total of 168,107 registrations hed been filed with the department so far this year. This figure is 462 registrations less than were entered by the department during 1996. At the present time ap- Plications for license tags average more than 100 daily, Van Horne said, but that he expected a decline in daily registrations beginning next month.
