Survey Seeks Age-Old
Life in the Ozark Hills

ST. LOUISA WPA archaeological
survey, sponsored by the ST. Louis
Academy of Science, is seeking in
the Ozark foothills about so miles
south of. here for evidence that
would place prehistoric man in the
Mississippi valley at the time masto-
dons roamed the area.
First indications that man might
have lived in the valley were dis
covered several years ago when two
amateur excavators turned up a
pair of spear points in ancient lake
deposits of blue clay. The archeo.
logical survey, headed by Richard
Mccormick Adams, seeks to expand
upon the discovery.
The only relic uncovered up to
now, however, is a segment of a
mastodon tooth. The survey seeks
to expand the search in hopes of
finding large deposits of the huge
bones and possibly human bones or
implements in the same strata Of
earth.
Human bones of the same period
have been found in the Southwest"
Adams said. THE chances should
be greater Of finding them here in
the middle Mississippi valley, on the
shores Of what may have been the
Gulf Of Mexico"

Speaking Of
SPORTS
By ROBERT McSHANE
Released BY Western Newspaper Union


TOU NOVA, the big blond heavy
- weight from Alameda, Calf,
never will be known for his shyness,
reticence or lack of ability to ad-
vertise himself.
For Lou, who has just recuperated
from brutal beating administered
by Tony Galento, has announced to
the world in no UNCERTAIN terms that
he is the contender who will brush
Joe Louis OFF the championship
throne as easily as you or / would
shoe a fly from our coffee and cakes
in the Greasy Spoon Lunch Shoppe.
In the face of this grim determi-
nation it seems a shame to bring
up past history. However, the rec
ord book shows that Tony Galento,
Newark's former pride and Joy, dis
posed of Lou in IA rounds in Phila-
deiphia little more than a year ago.
The book doesn't tell that Nova was
whipped in one of the bloodiest bat
ties in ring history.
The thoroughness with which Nova
was beaten may or may not be in
dicative Of his ability. Galento was
a freak-a fat, loud-mouthed clown
who wouldn't hesitate to use any
means possible to annihilate an OPP
ponent. Nova-like most good fight
ers - wasn't particularly well
equipped to handle such COMPETE
ton.

miles of the community known as

the crotch of the limb turns down,

belong believes his method Of
finding water is scientific. Scien-
lists scoff at the whole idea. Super
stitious persons believe it is done
by spirits. Others shake their heads
and wonder.
Strips 1t of Mystery.
But belongs theory strips water
witching of all its mystic elements
and makes it possible for any per-
son whose body is well-charged with
static electricity to locate under
ground water There is a reason,
he declares, for using limbs from
the peach tree or hazel shrub.
"All persons carry in their bodies
certain amount of static cleo
tricity." he explained. land some
are more heavily charged than
others.
1T is known also that running
water is charged with static cleo
tricity, and it is quite clear that
there will be an attraction or pull
ing between these electric charges
if some sensitive conductor is EN-
ployed.
"A peach tree sprout, most COM
monty used by water witches in this
part of the country, contains hydro
cyanic or purssic acid, which is a
conductor of electric current and is
particularly adapted as conductor
of the charges that exist in the
human body.
That's about all there is to it.
When person whose body is
heavily charged with static cleo
tricity grasps the two prongs Of a
switch containing prussic acid and
walks over an underground stream,
the switch pulls down over the
water"
Tells of Real Guesser.
belong does not claim to be able
to determine how far below the sur
face the water he locates may be
found. But he tells of a barber
named Billy Griffith, who taught
him to find water in Ohio nearly so
years ago.
II recall on one occasion, Griffith
located a well and told the driller
he'd find water in sand at a depth
of 81 feet. He missed it-by an
inch.
Another time thought Billy was
stalking lot on his reputation when
he told driller he'd find water at
AZ feet and that the well would
be artesian and would force a two.
inch stream 10 feet out of the
ground when it was drilled.
1.-THE whole community came
down to see what would happen
when the well was drilled.
A"At AZ feet and three inches the
water came in with rush, and the
stream shot from the top of the hole.
That was the most convincing DEM
onstration I've ever seen. But me.
I've never tried to predict the depth
Of a hole. OF course, I have my
own IDEAS"
