NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 3.-A New
York socialite couple, Mr.. and Mrs.
John Dimick, will leave Tuesday for
the Central American jungles to
take part in an archaeological expe-
dition financed by them and spon-
sored by Tulane University.
The party will seek evidence of
ancient Maya habitation and try
to determine why archaeological
objects excavated in that region
are strikingly similar to those un-
earthed in the Uloa Valley in the
republic of Honduras, nearly 200
miles away with a mountain range
between them. No similar finds
have been reported from interven-
ing territory.
President Rufus C. Harris of
Tulane, who announced the expe-
dition today, said Mr.. Dimick, civil
engineer, would survey and map
sites of various ruins in the area.

overnight jaunt now from Florida's
resort area to Europe.
The American Clipper Of Pam
American Airways' transatlantic
service took of at dawn today and
was scheduled to reach Lisbon, Por-
tugal, early tomorrow morning.
The transatlantic service started
last June, and the Tooth crossing
was completed a week ago. More
than 1900 passengers and many
thousand pounds of mail have been
transported.
In the past, flights have required
q to 80 hours. with stops at Ber-
muda and at Horta, the Azores. on
the way from New York to Lisbon.
Now, with seven months expert
ence, Pan-American has arranged
for heavier gasoline loads and will
omit Horta from the itinerary. The
handling of passengers and mail was
speeded. These innovations are ex-
pected to reduce the flying time to
"a hours in good weather.
Pan-American officials hope to
maintain the one-day schedule
whether the western terminals are
in the North or South.
Today's flight may be an expert
mental one to determine whether
the Southern harbors of Charleston,
S. c., and Miami are to be used reg
ularly during the winter season.
When Ice clogged the harbors In
Baltimore and New York, the 40
ton, 75-passenger Clippers were
brought into the more southerly port
of Charleston. then were flown to
Miami where refueling and servicing
facilities already were available.

Full Speed Ahead
BY M. M. d.

Its fun, thrilling and education
al to travel, depending, of course,
on how one travels, when, and
where. I never chose to travel
in winter, even from a cold to a
warmer cline, except in cases of
emergency; so this is my first
trip Ca long one at that to go
places in winter and especially to
some of the coolest places on the
map. Some business is combined,
but for the most part a holiday
vacation was the motive.
Accompanied by my husband,
Glen, and daughter, Maryellen,
we left Portland Thursday morn
ing December 81, 8:15, routed ov-
er the Union Pacific, the road of
streamliners and challengers. We
were already familiar with the
first lap of our trip which took
us to Omaha, our home for over
20 years; Chicago and points East
and South which we will mention
later. Somehow I, especially, was
more interested and observing than
on any previous trip over this
route. We had scarcely adjusted
our several pieces of luggage and
settled ourselves before we were
speeding along parallel to the Col
umbia Highway and Gorge, view
ing again the spectacular falls,
Bonneville Dam and majestic Mt.
Hood, in the distance. Looking
around in the coach, Glen spied
Mrs. MvKenzie and son Johnny,
white neighbors of ours and form
er Omahans. enroute to the old
burg to spend the holidays. We
chatted merrily until our atten-
ton was attracted to a flock of
wild geese, thousands of them, on
the Columbia River, following the
leader sounds a bit human, or
does it?) for at least three mile
stretch. This was in the game re-
servation near The Dalles and the
Celillo Falls.
These falls, as well as other
freaks of nature, kept us craning
our necks as we sped on and on.
About this time, Maryellen looked
at her watch and exclaimed, my,
its lunch time" and what was a
more definite proof than a fami-
liar voice announcing the first call
for lunch-it was none other than
Billy Law. The second and then
the last call, which we couldn't re-
sist, as we had light hurry-up
breakfast that morning in order
to make the train on time. We
were quite hungry, and felt that
we could consume most anything
put before us. A Yuletide atmos-
phere greeted us as we entered
the dining car. Holly wreaths and
miniature Christmas trees car
ried out the seasons motif. We
were indeed happy to find Mr.,
Duke Jackson and his crew in
charge of the superb cuisine SER
vice. We thoroughly enjoyed the
deluxe service by Charles Duke;
