Dr. Hrdlicka has been directing excavating at numerous locations in the Terri- tory for several years; the work being sponsored by the Nafional Museum under the Smithsonian In- stitution. During 1935 exploration was carried on in the vicinity of Larsen Bay on Kodiak Island. From Asia to Alaska Dr. Hrdlicka showed that the work of the past summer tended to confirm the generally accepted belief that man originally found his way to the American Continent by way of Alaska from Asia, and the direct indications are that he migrated along the route of the Aleutian Islands as well as across the Bering Straits. Strata of silt accumulated through many ages were removed and searched at the site of the Kodiak Island explora- tion for indications of human resi- dence. The results were very grati fying to the expedition as many artifacts showing a considerable degree of culture by their makers were recovered. Most of these v objects such as lamps, utensils, tools and arrow-heads carved from granite rock and bone, and a small- er number from ivory. Evidence Is Found Indisputable evidence that these early inhabitants even had some surgical skill was shown by a skull recovered by Dr. Hrdlicka on which a trepanning operation had been performed; the growth of new bone structure showing that the owner had probably lived for many years after the operation. One stratum that was encountered, showed that in the distant past the region had had a change in climate covering many years during which very little rain fell, and then for some un- known reason the climate changed abruptly to the rainy climate that, prevails today and which lower strata showed had prevailed before | the beginning of the arid period. The articles recovered by the ex-| pedition have been placed on ex- hibition on the main floor of the National Museum. | CANDIDATES FO z MASONIC HONORS | FROM PETERSBURG A class of Masonic candidates from | Petersburg, including C.

K Lo SPORT SLANTS he football spotlight, quite nat- urally, is focused on the big teams with the best records. So it is to be expected that the lads performing on the successful elevens should re- ceive a lion's share of the prais After all, the sports world ioves a winner. But while these heroes are basking in the limelight it is well to remem- ber the hundreds of youngsters who go on playing fine football week after week. You don't hear so much | about them as posSible all-America | candidates and mcst of them are {lucky to find their names even on | sectional all-teams but that does not alter the fact that they play tohe game, and in many cases better than who reap the headlines ars “One Man"” Team: Football is esentially a game of team play. And when you sce A chap rice to heights without the support ¢f his mates, you have to admit that he has something. A fair back often looks great when his line is giving him the cpportunities to sparkle. But a ball carrier who has to depend entirely on his own speed, and power to gain pre- s in a losing cause needs that extra something to be outstand- {ing. | An exhibition such as nger, Chicago's ed against Ohio State's powerful leven uld entitle any back to qual rating with the best in the sountry. Berwanger did not lead his am to victory, but there was not wmother athiete on the field, playing either Ohio State o1 Chicago, ¥ho sven clcsely approached him as a football play You won’t find a better guard n this broad land than Paul Stofko, aptain of the University of Pennsyl- vanid'eleven. The Quakers have been nt ampaign. At times they have flash- d great football. And then again hey have bogged down and disap- inted their followers dismally. Out of the wreckage of what promised 2 be the most successful season in for | relief—Stofko was in there playing | his position with courage and de- | termination that should have been an inspiration to his teammates. Because Columbia is experiencing its poorest season under Coach Lit- | tle’s tutelage, the fine brand of ball | Ed Furey has been playing at end has inot been fully appreciated by any but the coaching staff. Amerino Sar- no has played his tackle positions with a dash and finesse that ordi- | narily would insure him a place on | almost everyone’s all-America team, but because Fordham has enjoyed indifferent success his efforts have been for the most part overlooked. Harvard Has Adzigan You won’t find such names as Ike Kern of Colgate, Joe Meglen of | Georgetown, Dick Tuckey of Man- hattan and many other fine football players on many all-America elevens but that does not mean that they are incapable of holding their own in any company. Had their teams better records to set off their individual deeds anyone of the group might we'l have been a headliner. Even the fair name of Harvard has not been enough to focus atten- tion on the deeds of John Adzigan, an outstanding ball carrier if ever there was one. J .- |FOSS TO HANDLE VALDEZ CONTRACT H. B.
