A new Weather Bureau record was
made last night by the thunderstorm
which streaked the murky sky with
occasional flashes of lightning. 1t was
the first time here that February was
marked by two electrical storms. An
other display of lightning recently was
the third February electrical storm in
thirty years.
Clear and cooler weather is forecast
for today. With the wind changing
from southeast to southwest late last
night, the end of the rainstorm is in
sight, according to Weather Bureau
officials. The fog is expected to clear
away by noon. A drop of more than
ten degrees in temperature also is pre-
dicted.
Storm warnings continued to be dis

They claim that they were all
returning from Chesapeake Beach

were asleep on the back seat when
the accident occurred.
Dazed, they wandered into some
woods nearby, where they were
discovered by Justice of the Peace
Robert Plummer, who was on his
way to another accident and did
not at that time know of the one
in which Edwards was killed
The two men seemed to know
little of the accident and to be
unaware that Edwards had been
left pinned beneath the car. They
merely said that they had been in
an accident and wanted the magis-

them.
When they found it seven men
were required to lift the demolished
car from the body.

Dodge, former special agent of

MED that his relations with Mrs.
Remus while Remus was in the

INDIANS GAME
FROM TIBET

Almost conclusive evidence that
the American Indian originated in
sar.off Tibet, 1000 miles away from
the American continent. were found
by DIR. Ales Hrdlicka, Smithsonian
anthropologist, on his recent $4,000
mile journey over half the globe in
a study of the origin OF man. -
This and other profoundly sig
nificant fruits of his remarkable ex-
petition. which in part led to his
award of the coveted Huxley Medal
by the Royal Anthropological In
stitute of Great Britain, are reveal
ed in the annual exploration report
of the Smithsonian Institution, just
made public.

OF the types found in Tibet, DIR.
Hrdlicka says they are so true to
that of the American Indian that
if they were transplanted to Amer

Tibetan type resemble the Ameri.

Migration Proved
He found traces of their remark
able migration in Arabia and on
the Indian Coast lands Thousands
of negretoid peoples are still found
in the mountainous regions Of the
Malay peninsula. he reported.
In Sunatra, natives told the ex-
plorer of the existence OF wild men
in the interior, but he was unable
to verify these accountns. The
wild men were described as covered
with long red hair, having bodies
corresponding to children Of IL.
Their supposed haunts were inac-
cessible to DIR. Hrdlicka.
Traces of high degree Of cul-
ture attained by the pre-Malay
population . OF Java were found in
imposing ruins OF this early civiliza-

Link Still Missing
Another conclusion reached by
DR.. Hrdlicka is that the fossilized
