HUGE BARBARA DISCOVERED BY
 DR. A. HRDLICKA

What he claims is the largest barabara ever found in Alaska, has been unearthed at Chernofski on Unalaska island by Dr. Ales Hrd- licka and his party.
 The great community house, 200 feet long and 100 feet wide, was buried under four feet of earth, and though estimated to have been built centuries ago, was reasonably intact.
 The structure, heavily timbered and roofed with sod, contained many relics in the way of wood and bone, implements, and human bones and teeth scattered about indicate that the native populace had been wiped out by sudden epidemic. The barabara had stood on a point of land, giving commanding view of surrounding sea areas.
 The scientific party visited the ancient village site aboard the U.S.C.G. Morris, and from there went on to the Island of Four Moun- tainS.

 Hips are unpopular in pictures, Pictorially if not socially, they rate along with dental cavities, double chins, and crooked teeth as things one may have but not in public. A sizeable army of studio workers suffers with 'retoucner's cramp' -astiffness of the fingers, caused by overwork in brushing out excess hippage from the negatives of still pictures.

Frankie Buff was 6 winner, Tom my Ciarlo, got an even break and Emil Etters lost another decision in amateur boxing bouts last night at the White City stadium, Savin Rock before a good-sized crowd. Ciarlo turned in the best fight of the lot, holding Steve Watson of New York to a draw. Watson is a tall, clever boxer who has outpointed Julie Kogan while Ciarlo very nearly got the decision doing most of the dam age with hard right hands to the jaw, but took plenty of left jabs to get in his best "shot". Young Bum bo of New Haven, @ winner and e loser to Emil Etters was left-hooked into state of dizziness by Buff who won easily, while Etters was out- chased by a 6 foot 1 inch southpaw, whom he could not reach with wild right hand swings.
