KENTUCKY HAS
LARGEST CAVES
Savant Says Science Still
Awaits Full Light ON
Caverns.

Frankfort, Kyy-The largest caves
In the country, and, perhaps, In the
world, are found In Kentucky, accord.
ing to DR.. W. d. Funkhauser. zoolo-
gist at the University of Kentucky,
who, with the cooperation of DR.. Will
lsrd Rouse Jillison, state geogolist,
has made exhaustive studies over sew
eral years
Doctor Funkhauser said Kentucky
was neglecting great opportunity to
''bring to light important data which
have been for years within our reach,
but for which we have neglected even
20 search"
Doctor Funkhauser was Governor
Fields scientific representative at the
time Of the Flyod Collins tragedy at
Sand cave. The military court of In
quiry, appointed by the governor, has
declared Mammoth cave, for the es-
tablishing Of which as national park
a movement is under foot, and other
caves "are safer than Main street."
Extent ls Problematical.
Mentioning Mammoth cave, Crystal
cave, Onyx cave, Colossal cavern.
Horse cave, and Grand cave, Doctor
Funkhauser said none of these caves
has been entirely explored and their
extent is problematical. Most Of them
extend for miles under the surface of
the earth-passage after passage
chamber after chamber"
In virtually all parts of the state,
wherever limestone of any thickness
and purity occurs near the surface,
the men have found large, subter-
ranean caverns, besides thousands Of
smaller caves and "sinks," which often
are the entrances to caves.
most of these caves have been
formed by the dissolving out OF the
BEDS Of soluble limestones by under
ground waters.
"They are inhabited today by foxes,
coons, skunks and bats" Doctor Funk
hauser said, "and are used as places

costing that similar archaeological

GENEALOGY
BIZ MAxcY APPLEeATE, sR.

The name Apologize is of very am
cient origin. One authority on surnames
says the name was in three syllables,
"App-le-Gate," which the same au-
thority says the reason of this was,
one Of the early Governors of Wales
was named Gates, and to distinguish
him from the son, the son was called,
which means in WEIGH, App [sonl le
[of] Gates.
The Applegates are named in the
list of Henry vi [14S5].
The Apologize coat Of arms is In the
form of shield with stripe across the
center, with two apples inverted, hang
ing from small branch above it, and
one ap pie hanging from small branch
in the center of the space at the bot
tom of the shield.
This shield was registered at the be-
ginning Of Queen Elizabeth's reign,
who required all families entitled to
them to have them registered.
