Skiing Is great sport, but. like a
great many others, will be much more
enjoyable after q little practice and
instruction" DR.. Giere explained.
I'm trying to jump, it is better to
start with small jumps first, to learn
balance and form, before trying longer
ones. In building a jump, contrary
to the general opinion, the end of the
incline should not be built-up, as
though the jumper were going to try
to loop-the-loop.
But jumping Is only a part of skiing.
Field skiing is fine sport and excel
lent exercise. A few minutes instruc-
ton will be enough to learn the funda-
mental steps or movements which en-
able the skier to glide along with the
least effort"
DR.. Giere smilingly explained that
the most important thing to learn in
skiing IS Ito keep your feet"
But keeping your feet, or keeping
them under you. is not difficult if you
have pair of properly fitted skis he
said. ut is essential that the skis fit
snugly so that the skier can manipulate
them in much the same way that a
skater does, to dodge obstacles and
make sharp turns when necessary.
You can't take pair of skis with only
q leather strap to hold your shoes on
them and expect to have any control
over your movements"

g CHICAGO, February s.-Discovery
of cuneiform- inscribed tablets at Per-
sepolis-the Versailles" of ancient
Fersia-which throw new light on the
reign OF the great Xerxes 2.4OO years
ago, was announced today by the Uni
versity of Chicago's Oriental Institute.
N DIR. John A. Wilson, newly ap-
pointed successor to the late James H.
Breasted as head Of the institute, re-
ported that three of the seven stone
tablets, each about 20 inches SQUARE
bear inscriptions new to historians.
They tell of the success of Xerxes
In putting down revolt of enemies
OF the religion OF Zoroaster in the
early days of the Emperor's rule, and
describe fully the extent of the great
est empire the world had seen at the
time, 485-480 BIC
g DR.. Wilson also revealed the dis
covery of a number of solid gold and
silver plaques in the two corners of
the entrance to the magnificent au-
dience hall started in 516-515 BIC.
by Darius, but not completed until 40
years later. The inscriptions on these
brilliant squares, however, were not
as important as those of the stone
tablets, Dr. Wilson said.
2 DR.. Erich Schmidt, field director Of
the Iranian expedition, who came
here last month from the site of the
great palace with news and pictures of
its finds, turned over the gold and
silver pieces to the Shah of Iran.

moratorium laws enacted last Summer

Hitting the soil conservation pro-
posal today, Senator King added In an
interview:
1T would be better to give a SUBJ
sidy to the farmers bassed upon
production. If we want to help the
farmers We should make a direct ap-
preparation and have it distributed
where it is needed.
But to put s50,000, 900 in the
hands Of the A. A. A. to be spent
where it pleases win disappoint the
farmers, will prove unsatisfactory and
will increase prices to the consumer.
1t Is discriminatory legislation"
Urges Revenue Increase.
A stern advocate of q ''pay-as-you-
go" government. King said, regarding
taxes:
IF we are to continue this spend
ing spree, it is only fair and honest
to pay the piper. We should increase
our revenue by a billion dollars and
perhaps a billion and a half. don't
see how we can continue borrowing
indefinitely without serious conse-
quences.
If We would cut appropriations
and adjourn now we would be serv-
ing the country"
Republican Leader McNary of Ore
gon may try to have the Senate re-
commit the farm bill for public
hearings, but Smith was confident
such move would fail.
Other farm leaders believed few If
any amendments would be adopted.

IF YOU are between the ages of 10
and 10, and are earnest enough
to laugh off a few falls in the
Il snow, you can learn to become
an excellent skier with little difficulty.
If you are older, you may still learn,
but it's not so easy to teach an old
dog new tricks"
DR.. Glenn A. Giere, who passes off
his own qualifications by disclaiming
any championship records, but ad-
mits holding lone or two" cups,
stopped his instruction of an i'm
promptu skiing class at Rock Greek
Park yesterday to explain what it
takes to make a skier.
Scores of Winter sports enthusiasts
thronged the park and neighboring
hills to take advantage of the heaviest
snowfall in more than a dozen years,
among them DR.. Giere, who formerly
resided in Minnesota, where skiing
is as common as skating. He is a
graduate of the University of Mime
sofa and, prior to coming to Washing
ton, was at the Mayo Brothers Hos
pital at Rochester, MINI.
DR.. Giere and a friend, DR.. r. K.
Thompson, have already started CIV
ing instruction to hopeful skiers. In
the Spring Valley section and have
offered their services to other groups
who may want few pointers.

ALCATRAz REBELS
STILL DISCIPLINED
Newspapers "Inside" Story
Says Capone Not
involved.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO. February g.
Warden James A. Johnston indicated
tonight some Of the participants in
the recent Alcatraz prison revolt still
were being punished.
The warden declined to comment
however, on purported inside story"
of the uprising which branded AL Ca
pone and George CMachine Gum
Kelly as rats" for refusing. to take
part.
Johnston declined also to say how
many prisoners were being disciplined.
He said the number had been con-
siderably reduced" from his last pre-
vious report showing 20 men still in
a rebellious mood. He added the
prison was back to normal" At
Washington the Justice Department
also said normal" conditions pre-
vail.
Death Held Cause.
The inside story"-published by
the Examiner-asserted the mutiny
began January 20 after the death of
Jack Allen. a prisoner who reputedly
had been refused hospital treatment
because physicians could not discover
any ailment.
The paper said Allen died January
II after an operation for stomach ul-
Ger and that the prison announcement
attributed the death to pneumonia.
About 100 prisoners struck. Guards
promptly clamped some in solitary
confinement on starvation diet" of
bread and water. The others were
confined to their cells.
Within three days the number un-
der punishment dropped to rs, finally
to 20.
Names Alleged Leaders.
The Examiner named as among the
mutiny leaders John Paul Chase, killer
lieutenant Of the late George Baby
Face" Nelson: Harmon M. Valley, kid
naper of 9-year-old George Weyer-
haeuser; Ludwig Dutch" Schmidt,
Roger Touhy. gang gunman. and
