HE|ROGLYPH|Cs FOUND
 ON CLIFFS AL|TAk' T0G|AK

From a scientists standpoint, certain areas of the vast Westward country should be rich in material and study At Cape Alitak and at Togiak, two widely seperated re- gions, figures of hidden signifi- canoe, the writing of ancient peO- ples-i -illegible writings carved in solid granite, heiroglyphics- the thousands with what would now be termed crude drawings of animals, can be seen. Often, it is said, these heiroglyphics extend high on cliffs and are almost inaccessible. Old Indians in those regions have been asked about the origin of the carv- ings and the answer is always the same. They were there when my fathers father" and so on back for centuries, was alive.
 It is quite evident that here is a source of great study and interest to students and scientists. Who knows but what some part of the riddle of the ages might be unfold ed here with the solving of these ancient Alaskan carvings.

RECONNAISSANCE Is ID BE MADE IF THE:
 MISSING LINK"
HEAD OF BUREAU OF ROADS DUE TO ARRIVE HERE IN
 TWO WEEKS

Tn about two weeks M D. Will jams, head of the Alaska district for the United States Bureau of Roads, and George ColWell, gen. eral roadmaster of the Alaska Railroad, will make reconnaiS- Sance of the proposed connecting highway link between the end of he present SeWard-Kenai Lake and Moose Pass highways, a dis .ance of approximately 15 miles.
 This was the sum total of the cheering news left with Seward ties yesterday by Chas. H. Flory, commissioner for the United States Department of Agriculture, prior to his departure for his Jul neau offices.
 MT. Flory arranged with Col onel o. F. Ohlson, of the Alaska Railroad, to detail MT Colwell for this work because of the fact the proposed new road would probably parallel the right-of way for a few miles. Upon the result of this reconnaissance hinges whether or not a survey will be made. MT Williams is now in SoutheaStern Alaska.
 Three problems are confronted by the department on this pro- posed project the first of which 5s the crossing of Snow River, the high bluffs and cliffs oppo- site Mile IA and going around Trail Lake

HEROIC ACTS ARE
 COMMON, WESTWARD

Many tales of herOics have been related in Alaska but none which surpasses that of Butch Smith, Mulchatna trapper, who saved the life of his brother last month.
 "Butche's" brother became seri- ously ill and all efforts of his wife and brother failed; his condition became so that it was seen that un- less medical attention was obtained the brother and husband would die.
 So Butch" bundled his brother warmly and snugly in the sled, also the Mrs, hitched himself up with his two dogs and carried on for 250 miles in this manner to Dilling- ham where pr. Murphy brought the brother back to health.
 pr. Murphy frankly stated he failed to understand how Butch" could have performed such a her. culanean feat alone, hitched up with the dogs for 25O miles and in the dead of winter.
 The brother and wife have since gone to Seattle where he has en- tirely rcovrfi meblN etc hwit0u- tirely recovered, it is said. Butch" is back at his cabin on the head waters of the Mulchatna

NEW YORK, June IA, (P)-With growing conviction manifest as unsatisfactory at the outcome of the fight between Schmeling and Sharkey another blow was struck boxing with the following develop ments which featured the after math.

YOUNG GENERATION
 HASLIBERAL CODE
Approves Petting, CondOnes Swearing, Admits Need Of Lying

New York, Feb. 21.-Nice girls pct, and expect to be pettcd. Few of them swear, but they rather ad- mire than man who has an adequate and ingenious vocabulary. Lies are approved as necessary social cN- pcdicnts.
 Chapcrons arc an institution Of benefit only to the very young, for girls have learned that chivalry is not dead at all, but simply has gone moucrnistic.
 Unless 2Q,o00 young folks can be wrong, these things arc true, and many another surprising transition has come out of the jazz age. HaN- ing hastcned the decline and fall of Mrs. Grundy, the younger set now has set up it's own social govern ncnt, and written it's own dcclara- ton Of independence.
 QucstionnairCs concerning the be- havior of men and women at thea ters, prOms, night clubs, house par ties and all the complex social sit nations of the day were broadcast through the land by Doris Webster and Mary Alden Hopkins, New York authors. They quizzed college stu dents, social registrites, and repre- sentatives of cultured society from Maine farms to Louisiana planta- tions. from Beacon street to Telc- graph Hill
 It's a New World The answers they received con | frmed their theory that social form has changed radically with the gen. cral speeding up of modern life.
 Take, for instance, the matter Of swearing before women. It has never been mentioned before, and now is not unqualiiiedly endorsed by the younger set, the southern olc- ment being still conservative. But the consensus of opinion is that Il depends upon the. women them selves, If you couldn't swear al least as well as they could, it would be better to forcgo the profanity.

treat with a girl to the theater, to luncheon or dinner?" one youth wrote: "Ycs, and I wish l could oftcner than I do."
 There are indications that the eti- duet of taking a lady's arm is un- dergoing q change. When asked under what circumstances he exer- cised this privilege, a broad minded Yale student replied: Every chance 1 get"
 How long you call on girl, these days, depends on the girl. "As long as you are welcome" was the gen. cral answer, which affords a con- vcnicnt elasticity.
 The matter of getting rid of the tiresome caller was taken up in con- siderable detail by the girls. "Tell him a convincing lie" was the most approved method of reasscmbllnG him with his hat. But the feminine technique was not overlooked. The idea was to send him away happy Instead of 1 being bored, be fascinating. But be | prompt. Don't use a club. Csc a sugar plum.
New Britain herald., 1930-02-21

One bright young man said he al ways held back his best lines be- cause girls are sharks at pickup and he tried to keep them from lift ing his best phrases.
 Girls were almost unanimou against swearing, except a group from Park avenue, who said Sure"
 T try not to swear in front of men. l don't think they like a girl who does" said one girl. Co-eds. it appeared, were mostly against this form of expression.
 Nice Girls Do Pct
 Petting came up for considerable attention, and the men showed much more emotion on the subject than women. Violently indeed did most of them declare that nice girls do pct.
 4 few felt that there should be some limitation, but the majority were opposed to any drastic dis armament.
 A young man from Back Bay 
 said: T do rot know whether or not nice girls pct, but l do know l would be prcjudIccd against, one who did"
 To the question; Do you feel free to put your arm around a girl with whom you are not in love-" the re- plies were uniformly in the alfirma- tive. "Ccrtainly." wrote one college student, furnishing his own cXclama- ton point.
 Girls admitted that the chaperon still exists, but with her influence greatly diluted, and that she should be put up with at mixed weekend parties, formal dances, for late par ties in q mans apartment, trips to boys schools, and wherever parents OF, college authorities insist upon it.
 The Woman Pays Asked to define the Chaperon s l function in modern life, one girl re- i piled that chaporons were permissi- ble for the very young, say up to 1f ycars and another answcrd simply: "Thcy were for Brats."
 This double header reflected the modern emancipation of womcn:
 If you and q young man happcr ] to be travelling to the same place, i' it all right for you 10 go together even if the trip is an overnight one Could you stay at the same hotcl?'
 Most girls felt it would be quit permissible, but it should not b. planned beforehand.
 One girl said: If it suited me, another: "It would seem priggisl not to- and a third: Tt would b awfuIly silly not to-"
 All the answers indicated tha girls have lost their illusions abou the dangerousnoss Of men, but tha the men still cling to the belief tha they arc wild creatures, untamed b conventions after 10 o'clock at night
