EXPLORERS ATE
MONKEY MEAT.
THEY DECLARE

! LONGMEADOW, Mass, Dec. 31.--
Eating monkey meat and helping the
native girls to bob their hair were
onlye two of the minor incidents of
the expedition into the jungles of
Bolivia from which oscar de lima
Mayer of New York, Mrs. Mayer and
Miss ORC Ford have just returned.
Miss Ford, after arriving at her
home here, told of encounters with
savage tribes, lodging maneating
crocodiles as well as snakes and tar
antulas, shooting treacherous rapids
on RATS and subsiting on turtle eggs.
The expedition was one in search of
beauty and adventure.
You see" Miss Ford explained,
'they told us that the valley of the
Beni River was very beautiful. In a
way it was disappointing. The trip
was harder than we had anticipated
and the gorgeous orchids they de-
scribed for the most part had no
blossoms. They grow in profusion
along the river but you have to go
far into the jungle to get the flow
ers."
The adventurers started from La
Paz, the Bolivian capital, and crossed
the Andes on mules. Indian guides
piloted their RATS down the Matiri
River, carrying them safely through
precipitous rapids with whirlpools at
the bottom. Gnats and mosquitoes
We're too abundant for comfort.
They kept up good teamwork,"
Miss Ford remarked. THE gnats
gnawed you till sundown; then the
mosquitoes appeared The insects are
large and their bite is very painful"
While navigating the Benz River
in dug-out canoe the party ran out
OF provisions, the ~ days which they
had expected to pass in the jungle
having extended to three weeks.
For days" Miss Ford said, I'VE
lived on boiled rice and the hard
coarse brown sugar they call than
baca and on turtle eggs. These eggs
are like hens eggs, only a little
better You boil them or make an
omelet Then the rice gave out Nand
the Indians cooked US monkey meat.
It's quite nice, really. 1t tastes like
rabbit and they grill it over the fire.
There were crocodiles in the river,
of course, and they were man eaters.
When / shot mine there were four
in sight at once.
I'VE passed two savage tribes of
Indians but they did not trouble us.
In some of the Indian villages nearer
the cities the natives are fairly civ
ilized. But few of them had seen
white women before our visit
From the Beni, the party went
down other rivers to the Amazon and
thence to its mouth. One of these
streams was ilooseye1t's "River of
Doubt The entire trip covered about
$500 miles and extended over three
months.

The right of the Federal Govern
ment TO confiscate vehicles seized by
State police for unlawfully transport
ing liquor yesterday was argued be-
fore the Supreme Court in a case
brought by William f. Dodge and
others, owners of the motorboat Ray
of Block Island. Police of Providence
II. l., seized the boat and it's cargo
and subsequently turned them over to
Federal prohibition officers.
In Rhode Island there is no State
law authorizing seizure and cOnfiSca-
ton of vehicles used in unlawfuIly
transporting liquor, and counsel for
the owners of the boat contended that
inasmuch as the act of the Providence
police, in making the seizure was
Illegal the subsequent act by the Fed
eral prohibition officers was necessary
Illegal. 1t was contended that State
and municipal police in States where
there is no State confiscation law
could not act in cooperation with the
Federal authorities to the extent of
mkaing a seizure and subsequently
turn the seized article over to the
Federal officers.
Assistant Attorney General Willie
brandt argued it was immaterial how
the Federal prohibition officers came
into possession of the vehicles and
liquor, insisting that. if necessary, the
court should consider they made the
seizure when they took the boat and
whisky from the Providence police.
Mrs. Willebrandt contended their con-
>viction was sufficient to warrant con
tiseation of the boat and the destruc-
ton Of the liquor. She urged the court
to decide the case to clear up a con-
fusion in such cases, for, she said, the
Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals had

CHICAGO. October 2s.-A certainty

THE Martian animal. however, is

 DIFFICULT THINGS
Requires Large Staff to Make
 These Comedies

New York, Aug. 20 Pl-zAn ami mated cartoon comedy, requiring seven minutes to screen, requires fifteen artists working two weeks to produce.
 Pat Sullivan creator of Felix the Cat" said that each reel of 500 or 600 feet needs from 5000 to 5000 separate drawings while the artists capacity must be from 100 to 200 drawings a day.
 q make the basic drawings and outline the story. but the bulk of the work must be done by the four teen other artists or animators," Sullivan said. Every drawing first is done in pencil on transparent paper which is held on a drawing board by two pegs. A drawing com pleted, the artist fits another sheet of paper on the board and draws the next position, changing the figure to suit the action"
 The drawings then are copied on
 celluloid and the "blacks" denoting clothing filled in.
 When the drawings are completed the pictures are photographed in se- quence according to carefully pre- pared chart which shows the exact timing. Twelve to fifteen days are required for the photographing.
 The detail of the drawing is illus trated by the requirement of forty figures to make a figure cross the street in the picture, with the ob- ject moving one-fourth of an inch at each step.

 Falk Fails

Austin. Tex, Aug. 20 Rl-Loyalty to his alma mater blasted his bril- liant major league twirling pros poets. but in compensation afford ed "BiD'' Talk the opportunity of stamping himself one of the hardest hitting outfielders now in baseball.
 The Chicago White Sox mauler who is now bidding for the peak of the American league batting average column, was the outstanding base ball and football player of Texas university here in 1918. 1919, and 1920. He is yet rated as the greatest southpaw hurler produced by any Texas college or university.
 He Had Everything"
 During the three years he toiled on the hillock for the Longhorns he lost not single game, and was the biggest factor in the winning of three Southwest conference cham pionships. In diamond parlance Bib" had everything control, mystifying knuckle ball, endurance, pitching sense. When not on the mound. Falk played first base. He | fielded the initial sack we'll and hit hard; but Texas university fans thought of him as pitcher, not as a hitter. .E..
 Left Bonus; Took Gridiron
 Falk was an All-Southwestern tackle on the football elevens of 1917 and 1918. ..
 In the summer of 1919, Falk sign ed with the White Sox. with the un- derstanding he was to receive a substantial bonus if he refrained from playing football in 1919. He was to report after the 1920 college baseball season.
 The Longhorns got away to dis nal start in the fall of 1919. Falk tossed away the bonus that would have been his and donned his foot by Talks stirring play, the Long horns "came back" with several bril- liant victories. s.t '
 Ruined Pitching Arm
 Falk emerged from the bruising football season with badly injured left shoulder and arm. His wing" troubled him throughout the 1920 collegiate season, though undaunted by the pain, he pitched the Long, horns to a conference diamond championship.
 When he reported to the Chisox, it was apparent his pitching days were over. Rendered only more de- termined to stick to the big show, Bib" soon convinced Kid" Gleason of his promise as hitter.
