From time to time hunters have
come back from Africa with state
ments about the burial grounds"
Of elephants.
We are told that elephants 60 to
secret places to die and that neither
the hunters nor the African natives
know where those places are.
Some elephants live to be CEN
fury old, or even older. They are
among the long lived beasts Of the
world.
There Is reason to believe that
when death draws near they 60
away from their herds. The dead
body Of an elephant seldom is found
In the jungle, though natives some
times discover tusks lying about.
The tusks are of value as ivory,
even though they may have. been
lying in the open for long time.
People on an African plantation
along the, Cape-to-Cairo trade route
were amazed one day when a pair
of elephants came ION a visit" The
plantation was about 100 miles
from the nearest known elephant
country"
The visiting animals tramped
around, as If they were on q tour.
That night one of them died.
The natives seemed pleased. They

Combat
Verb. To fight with; to oppose.

Combat is the surprise word of the
week. When used as a verb, as Il
will combat the disease" the word
is almost universally accented on
the second syllable, as: Kun
BAT; yet, according to nine &C
cepted dictionaries, both noun and
verb should be pronounced alike,
with the accent on the first syllable
The pronunciation 'kum-BAT"
for the verb is found In but two of
the nine dictionaries: In Webster's
as third choice and in Macmillan's
as second choice. The remaining
seven ignore "kum-BAT" entirely.
Correct pronunciations, verb and
noun:
First choice-KOM- bat.
Second choice-KUM- bat.
Verb only, third choice-Kum-

Elephant Paid Honor to Mate

the next day. He stretched out his
trunk and squealed. He walked
around the plantation and charged
at the manager and several natives.
They were able to get out of the
way, but felt they must take care
for their lives.
After a charge the male elephant
would 60 back to the side of his
dead mate. It seemed he wanted
to stand guard over her body.
When night came the male ele-
plant left the plantation. Perhaps
he decided that he had paid SIS
much honor as he should to the
mate he had lost. Next day he
was seen at a distance Of 20 miles,
heading back to the elephant
country.

regular last year, three more let

mores.
SEVERN is back and looking his

baseball and was lost. The only let
terman late reporting, Pinky Elliot,
was an end. And two Of the other
three latecomers played the same
position.
Net result is that the Tar Heels
off-season losses and late reportings
have been concentrated at the one
spot. And what once appeared one
