KITCHEN ARTICLES
 ALL THAT IS LEFT
Only Trace Of Long Gone Florida
 Indians

| Washington, March co,-Whon the
 CaluSa Indians, who dominated
 sou hcrn Florida when the SnaniarJs
 landed, and who were reported 10 have grown rich or the ship wrecked gold Of the Conquistadores l became extinct. they left behind hem as almost their sole monument
 the refuse of the food they ate. Their principal diet was shell fish
 and the shells they threw out piled
 up into heaps 30 feet high and
 hundreds of feet long.
 The Smithsonian Ins,l'utiou's re-
 cent expedition under Henry B. Col
 'ins. IT,. determined the point about winch there had been some unccr-
 talnty. that these shell heaps were
 really kitchen middcns and not arti-
 f'cial structures with some other significance. The proof is that all the shell heaps investigated were Stratlfled with ashes, small animal bones, and other refuse from the kitchen.
 The language of the Calusa. except for a few isolated words and place names. is lost, little or nothing is known of their beliefs, customs or material culture. Some mounds of soft beach material and loose sand do exist. some Of which were foun- datlons for houses. and others burial mounds. MT. Collins eXcavatrd sov- cral of these. His most important find was of 75 well preserved skcle- tons in q single mound.
 Most of tho bodies had hcnn fold cd with the knees to the chin and burial was very close together Tn. skeletons were cXccllently preserved. The burials probably took plac" be lore the coming of the white man. since only one bone was found with any evidence Of disease, and the artIfacts associated with the burials were purely Of native origin. The only objects in the way of mortuarv offerings were pieces Of broken poi tery placed around the heads, an not known among other Indians. The mound contain- cd no other artifacts.
 The skeletons constitute an i'm , portant find, however, since they are the first large series over found and l Of them may throw ! light on what was the racial affinity ! Of the Calusd tribe.

GENE ORDERED ID
 CHOOSE OPPONENT
Champion Will Probably Defend
 His Title Next July

New York. March % iPp-The fog screening the next heavyweight championship tilt in which Gene Tunney will defend his crown gave promise of lifting today. 4 double development in the situation indi- cated this. The first of these is that Tunney has been ordered to name his opponent.
 i The other discloses that Tunney and Promoter Tex Rickard have agreed on a title affair to bc held in July at place not yet chosen. In the event Rickard abideS by the wishes Of Tuuney announced several days ago, Tom Hcency. the New Zealander. will be the cham- pions accepted challenger. The New York State Athletic com- mission yesterday wired Tunncy at Miami Reach notifying him that his six months period of grace to de- eide on an opponent would expire Thursday and asked for q reply. The commission informed Tunney that challenges of Jack Sharkey, Tom Heeney and Johnny Risko were on file in that order
 Meanwhile, at Miami Beach, Rick ard had persuaded Tunney to drop plans for June bout and decided on 9 July match instead. Rickard announced that the July struggl" would be the only heavyweight championship of the year, He also declared the decision reached with Tunney for the July bout automa,i- caliy covered The requirements Of the New York commission.
 "Tunney agreed 10 fight the man select as the best opponent" Rick ard stated. "The fight will take place in July and it is agreed with the champion that it will be the only titular contest Of tho year. That's all there Is to say"
 Rlckard said he would announc" the name Of the successful challen- ger shortly and that he would not be Jack Dempsey, who is now listed as retired" despite the feeling that ! the Manassa Mauler will eventually i
 
 scy, statement from him in Los i Angeles said: "I have made a good { many statements lately and hav, moi hing more to say just now" !
 Tho action of the New York com- mission in requesting Tunney 10 name an opponent was not unani- nous. Chairman Farley and Com missioner Muldoon favored the pro 'edure while the third member of ! he body, missioner Brower, ob- ccted, claiming that the commis- 'ion should keep as far away as pos ihle from the possibility of being placed in the position of acting as ! match making body.
 II was pointed out that the com mission merely notified Tunney Of he challenges on file and that he vas in no way bound to choose ombaiant from the ranks Of three 'oxers named but might take on any good heavyweight.

.L|NDbERGH GETS THE WILSON AWARD
Famous Aviator Praises War President in Acceptance

New York. March 20 R-The
 name of Colonel Charles A. Lind hersh today stood linked with those ot Nlscount Cecil and Elihu Root as one whose contribution 10 the cause Of international peace and under standing had been recognized as worthy Of the Woodrow Wilson award
 The award, consisting of bronze medal F inches in diameter and s25,oeo. was presented by the Wood row Wilson foundation at a dinner in the Hotel Astcr last night attend cd by notahlcs i'll many fields.
 The award was presented 10 Wis count Cecil of England in 1924 for lis services to the League of Ma ions and to Mr. Root in 1926 for his part in the establishment of the world court.
 Colonel Linjbergh. in his speech of acceptance paid tribute 10 the achievements of President Wilson
 n man. he said. "Who was always at the head Of progress and peace and yet who was able 10 successfully lead his nation through the greatest war in history when peace was no longer possible and after that war 10 bring this country back 10 his high ideals"
 Talks on Aviation.
 switching 10 aviation, Colonel LIndbcrgh declared he always ho- !iercd aviation would play q large part i'll the bctterment Of world un- ders'andine. Just as this country was brought closer together and .h. union made possihl" by the railroad and c"nlented by tho gasoline engine he said, aviation would in the fu'lrr bring nations together.
 Tn my flight through Central America and around the Carih- beam, he said, T found people very similar 10 our own, with ideals and ambitions not unlike ours. 4 : In Central America and around the carlhbean there exist capitals and cites two or three hundred miles apart. vet, in time. days distant.
 The people in these countries to our south have been separated in 'h" past by the lack of two of the greatest factors in modern ciyiliza- ton--transportation and communi- cation. It is difficult 10 lay rails the junelcs or 10 construct roads over the southern mountains.
 However. where in the past tbcro have been these difficulties. in tn. future. I believe. through the use of the airplane, which knows neither barrier nor boundary. these countries and their people are coming 10 a closer understanding. which is al ways brought about and made pos >ible by contact: that where they ire now days and weeks apart, in Inc future they will be brought within hours Of each other.
 Tt is my hope that within the next few months We will have air in"rs operating from the United states down through the Caribbean lrea 10 South America. This is d condition which can be accomplish d with our present day equipment 1 t is entirely feasible today to or ,anize and construct air routes be- Ween our country and Latin Amer | "a in safety and without great diff ulty."
