NEW AIRPORT RULE
PUT INTO EFFECT
Actual Operations Are Not
lmpeded by Runway
Restriction.

New Commerce Department regula-
tions restricting operation of trans
port airplanes exceeding $4,000 pounds
weight to the long runway at Wash
ington Airport went into effect today
without affecting actual operations.
Winds, though variable, were SO
light that the big DC-3 Douglas
transports of American and Eastern
Airlines-the only airplanes affected
by the order-were able to operate
from the long runway All schedules
were being maintained.
Operations officials of both airlines.
however, were prepared to transfer
operation of the big ships to Boiling
Field or to route the 21-passenger
transports around Washington en-
tirely on a moments notice, should
wind conditions close the long runway
to the pilots.
Operations officers Of American and
Eastern said they have not yet re-
ceived official notice of the new regu-
lations, which were announced last
friday by the Commerce Department
following a conference a week ago
with representatives of the airlines
and the National Air Line Pilots As
sociation. They said they expect to
receive the formal notification late
today or tomorrow and are operating
in accordance with its provisions as
they understand them.
At the War Department it was said
no further Army orders are necessary
to permit the use of Boiling Field bv
scheduled airliners during periods
when Washington Airport is closed
TO them. General authorization, now
effective. permits the use of the local
Army field at any time "in case of
emergency" it was pointed out. and
this is believed sufficient to cover the
present situation, which is regarded as
in the nature of Continuing emer-

Our Progressive Town Board

Our Progressive Town Board
Smyrna Town Council is
realizing now what has been
accomplished in their progress
sive undertaking in providing
Smyrna with a Town Hall
Clock, a Tax Office Building
and Comfort and Rest Rooms
for the public. Always there
crops up more or less criti-
cism by some in undertakings
of this kind, but it appears
that the Council did well with
the funds they had at hand
and have given a service that
the public will enjoy as time
goes on. The progressive
spirit that is shown in these
improvements can still be car
1ied forward by opening and
extending Market Street thru
to South, giving a wide ap-
proach from Commerce Street
to Smyrna's magnificent new
school building - the John
Bassett Moore High School.
We understand Council can do
this without borrowing any
money. 1t is possible that
Smyrna can get the aid of the
State Highway Department
to pave and curb this one
square extension and lay the
sidewalks. If this much can
be gained (and our town aside
from the Boulevard has got
ten little aid from the depart
ment for its streets) Council
can, by laying the water and
sewer mains and its electric
light line, to make this ap-
proach to the High School
building from the center of
town, a worthwhile improve
ment. Once this street is
opened it will make possible
some building from which
revenues in taxes, light and
water revenues can be had
that will in time, pay Smyrna
back. We hope Council will
start on this project at an
early date.

MYSTERY REMAINS
Long Island SociaIite Dis
appeared Six Month
Ago Today.
AZ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
STONY BROOK. N, Y, Dec. o.
Mrs. Alice Mcdonnell Parsons. 3s-year-
old Long Island society woman, has
been missing six months today.
The trail OF her fnal hours among
family and friends is cold; the little
farm where once she tended her
squads is barren; her husband, Will
liam H. Parsons, said long since he
believes his wife Is dead.
And now authorities OF Suffolk
County are patiently awaiting the
finding Of her body.
Convinced She Is Dead.
Although District Attorney L. Bar
ron Hill said he was not positive
whether Mrs. Parsons was dead or
alive. another Investigator asserted:
We're convinced she's dead. We
think her body was thrown in the
ocean, and now we're waiting for the
ocean to give 1t back.
THAT should happen any time now
any time within the next three
months. That's long enough to rot
away any rope or loosen any wire.
No matter what has happened, we'll
be able to make scientific identifica-
ton OF the remains. Then maybe
this disappearance will be solved"
Parsons visits his 1l-acre farm only
rarely now, coming out from Manhat-
tan. The Parsons former housekeeper,
the Russian Nine. Anna Kupryanova,
lives in Manhattan hotel. The DO
| lice still glance in occasionally, but
after the careful examination they
and the Federal Bureau Of Identifica-
ton gave the place six months ago,
there is little for them to look for.
Facts Of Disappearance.
The facts Of the disappearance
were:
l. Parsons said his wife drove him
to the st. James Station on the morn
ing OF June 9 so that he could board
the 7:47 am. Long Island Railroad

First indisputsble evidence that
human beings lived in North America
during the late stages Of the last Ice
Age comes from a geological study
made this summer at the Lindenmeier
site in Northeastern Colorado by Prof.
Kirk Bryan and Louis L. Ray
Of Harvard University, in cooperation
with the Smithsonian Institution, the
institution announced today.
In small valley near the Wyoming
line was found about four years ago q
habitation site of the mysterious Fol-
som man. Since then DR.. Frank H. H.
Roberts, Smithsonian archeologist, has
made an intensive study Of the area.
Projectile points similar to those found
elsewhere in the Southwest in associa-
ton with the bones of an extinct
variety Of camel and OF the mammoth
were collected here in considerable
numbers. In close association with
these points were found bones Of an
extinct variety Of bison.
No Skeletons Found.
The site, DR.. Roberts decided, prob
hUly Ildu DtcIl n SuIilIIlcT IluIlIlIlB CAMP
Of the ancient nomadic hunters. Other
artifacts enabled him to reconstruct q
picture of their lives, but up to the
present no skeletal remains Of any of
them have been found.
Because of the association of his
artifacts with long extinct animals it
has been assumed that Folsom man
lived during the last North American
glaciation. The difficulty of proving
this assumption has rested on the pos
sibility that the animals themselves
survived the glacial period-perhaps
almost up to the dawn of history.
In their study this summer Prof.
Bryan and Mr.. Ray paid no at
tention to the fossil remains, but con-
sidered only the trails left by the gla-
ciers themselves in their retreats and
| advances. The Lindenmeier Valley,
| they found, had been under ice several
times during the last, or Wisconsin,
| glaciation. This had several phases,
perhaps thousands of years apart. At
least three times the ice advanced
southwark and into the lowlands, re-
