Old Style Drum

NEW ORLEANS. Sept. TO- (U.P)
The middle American research
department, Tulane university, has
added a wooden drum, the kind
that called the ancient Mayas and
the Aztecs to arms when the Span
ish conquerors first landed in Mex
leo 400 years ago, to its collection
of museum oddities.
Ernest Noyes, associate in phil
ology at the university, found the
drum in an abandoned Catholic
church at Tapi, Yucatan, recently
while on a tour of exploration.
The drum was made from log
that had been followed horizon
tally, in the manner of a dugout
canoe, and has an H-shaped slit
sawed into the uncut side of the
wood. 1t gives three different
tones when struck and is approx
mately three and one-half feet in
length. L.
Noyes expects to return to Mex
leo within the next few months
to continue his search for handi-
craft of the ancient Mayas and Az
tees.
