Flag Flown on Kon- Trip
Given to Truman by Explorers

They found they could have kept
healthy on, marine life. Big fish
when split open yielded a non-salt
fluid for quenching the thirst, and
a fine-mesh net they dragged astern
brought up fair amounts of edible
plankton.
Four of the men, supplemented
their rationS with sea food, but two
lived wholly on two types of military
rations furnished them for testing
by the War Department. All six
appeared to maintain normal vigol
and weight.
Saw No Ships or Planes.
Because they were following 8
track far from travelled routes, the
men saw no ships or airplaneS er
route. The United States Weather
Bureau was anxious to have regular
reports on conditions along the way
and these were radioed twice daily
Mr.. Heyerdahl said.
The raft weathered two heavy
storms toward the end of the jour-
ney and survived a mighty pounding
of the breakers when it finally was
swept onto and over reef on an
atoll, Rariuk, in the rTuamotu
Islands. The natives said it was
the first vessel to come through such
heavy beating on the reef.
Mr.. Heyerdahl, whose wife will
join him during a lecture tour in
the United States, plans to compile
the information collected on his
theory of westward migration te
Oceana into a postgraduate thesis
at Oslo University, where he was a
former student.
Others of the party here expect
to return to Norway after severa
weeks in the United States.

By w. H. Shippen, Jr.

The Kon-Tiki explorers called at
the White House today to give Pres
ident Truman the American flag
they flew on their balsa raft during
a 4,300-mile journey across the Pa
cific from Peru to the Polynesian
islands near Tahiti.
The five Norwegian members of
the crew, led by Thor Heyerdahl, an
ethnologist, flew here Wednesday
from San Francisco after returning
from Tahiti by steamer. The ex-
plorers held press conference at
the Norwegian Embassy before 60
ing to the White House.
In summing up the voyage, Mr..
Heyerdahl reiterated his conviction
that he now has the last evidence
needed to prove his theory that
the Polynesian islands were settled
by migrants from the coast of
Northern South America in the pre-
Incan period.
Traditions Strikingly Similar.
1t was to test this theory that
the young scientist, who had COL
lected chronological and botanical
data on a TRIP to Oceana 10 years
ago, set out from Callao. Pereu, last
April % on an 18x45-foot raft of
huge balsa logs built after design
known to the Indians for hundreds
of years.
Mr.. Heyerdahl already knew, he
said, that sweet potatoes, gourds
and coconuts found in Oceana
probably were transported there
from South America by primitive
migrants, and that the traditions
of the inhabitants bore striking
points of similarity-such as the
word Tiki or Son of the Sun"
The dim legend that Tiki" was
the "son of the sun" or "the Greater
of mankind" existed both in Peru
and Oceana, the explorer said. It
was his belief that a primitive
people, described in Incan legends
as white skinned, fair-haired and
bearded, crossed the Pacific either
as explorers or because they were
driven to take refuge on their balSa
RATS by tribal wars.
For 1O1 days the explorers followed
this supposed track virtually at the
mercy of wind and currents. Their
steering oar was used mostly to keep
their craft headed SO a crude sail
could catch westerly winds that pre-
vailed throughout the journey.
First Few Days Rough.
The six members of the crew, in
cluding a native of Sweden who left
the party in San Francisco last week
had a rough time of it in the first
few days maneuvering their unac-
customed craft through the heavy
chop of the Humboldt Current.
Later, as their muscles toughened
and they learned to rope down their
steering oar, they found easier going
The daily routine became two-hour
watches at the oar, night and day
with one man cooking every sixth
day. and regular assignments at the
radio photographic and meteorolog-
ical instruments.
Fishing was both sport and duty.

Can't ReflOat North Sea Until March 6

SEATTLE, (P) - Efforts to re- float the Seattle passenger ship North Sea from a reef near Bella Bella, B. C., have been unsuccess- ful, the Northland Transportation company reported today, and the vessel is in a perilous position.
 Gilbert w. Skinner, one of the owners of the Northland company, which operates the North Sea, re- turned here from an inspection trip and said chances of refloating the ship Don't look too good"
 "The North Sea is set on Porter Reef, l3 miles west of Bella Bella, Skinner said, "and she must stay on the reef until March 6, 2 or 8 when the next high tides occur"
 Skinner said the ship was dam aged extensively and that repairs would be extremely difficult but that the company cannot afford to lose the North Sea because of the shortage of passenger ships.

More Schools Close In Buffalo n.fl.

BUFFALO, N. Y.(P)-RefuSal of union truck driver to deliver badly-needed coal resulted today in the closing of one of the 20 pub lie schools that had been kept open m the three-day-old strike of 2,400 buffalo teachers.
 Closing of the other l9 schools functioning with 500 non-striking teachers appeared possible as union truck rustlers scheduled a meeting tonight to consider whe- ther to deliver coal and cafeteria supplies.
 The Lafayette High School, with one-day supply of coal, was closed two hours after classes be- gan. A union driver refused to de- liver coal at the school yesterday.
 The strike of the Buffalo Teach CTS Federation (unaffiliateO for increased pay, previously had closed 78 of the city's 98 schools.

something fierce. One day the poor
