plan was crossed, it's no concern of

However, even if the trouble is

Actually, the italian Army in East
Africa faced encirclement by at least
five British and Allied expeditions.
In Eritrea, on the Red Sea, the
way lay open to Asmara, though
military experts here warned against
too optimistic hopes for its early
capture-for its garrison will be
swelled by the survivors from among
the $4,000 who defended Cheren.
In Western Ethiopia, British
troops, aided by native patriots"

Sudanese border to surround Debra

Johnnie, u, Still
Is Planning Gold
And Paints Lurid Tales of
West for Tourists.

DEADWOOD, S. D.-Gone are the
days of Deadwood Dick, Wild Bill
Hickock, and Calamity Jane, but
Potato Creek Johnnie carries on the
traditions of the Old West in South
Dakota's Black Hills.
Except when he is painting lurid
pictures of the past for amused
tourists, Pcrrett continues his
search for gold along Potato Creek
in the Spearfish canyon country. And
Potato Creek Johnnie is 70.
For 80 years or more Johnnie has
been prospecting along Potato Creek
and panning gold, too.
Johnnie PANIED out one of the fin
est nuggets ever found in the Black
Hills, and it now is on exhibit at the
Adams museum in DeadWood.
The old methods are good enough
for Johnnie and in his search for
gold he uses an old pan which he
swishes around in the fast-running
waters of the creek.
On good day the old prospector
has found gold worth $50. but he
finds that placer mining isn't what
it used to be.
There's too many folk in the
Hills. and they have riled up the
streams and staked out so many
claims that they can't get the gold
OUT he said
You got to know how to prospect,
just the same as you have to know
any other business"
Like his other relics of the past
Johnnie clings TO his old buckskin
shirts. He lets his gray hair grow
to shoulder lengths. and the tourists
think he is character"
They can come to him for first
hand history of the West now that
he has moved into town from his
cabin beside Potato creek.
