It's Routine as Fozio, Bossler
And HARPER Qualify for PGA
By MerreII WhittIesey

To-Day is Wednesday, May "a,
and if that comes as no surprise
you can imagine the reaction of
the Middle Atlantic golf profess
sionals when George Fazio,
Chandler Harper and Charlie
Bassler qualified for the National
PGA yesterday in Richmond.
Fazio, the Woodmont pro and
one of pro COLTS real stylists and
a proven tournament veteran,
didn't figure to finish behind any,
body in this section. He tied for
the top with rounds of 70 and
71-141 over the James River
course of the Country Club of Vir-
ginia, one Of the South's top
courses.
Harper, who never has failed
to qualify for the PGA or Ma
tional Open in many years of as
sociation with the Maryland, Vir-
ginia and District pros. matched
Fazio's 10 and II.
Bassler Riding High.
Bassler, the strong, handsome
and nervous pro from Rolling
Road, who appears to be max
ing his major bid for acclaim this
season. was right back of his
more experienced brethren with
72-71-143.
They figured to qualify, and did
in the most form following day in
this section in many years, and

Deer Roamed Swamps.
When the terrace steps were

sequoia trees formed part of the
plant life of the swamplands of
the District. Roaming these
swamps were elephants, reindeer,
musk OK, wild horses, ground
sloths, wild bogs and giant
beavers.
Petrified logs of the earlier
CretaceouS period have been
found in many localities of the
city. Some were unearthed in the
summer of 1914 near Four Mile
Run in the vicinity of the Shir-
lington business center outside
Alexandria.
Foundations for the Mayfower
and Statler Hotels proved geol-
ogists' delight. Remains of giant
cypress trees, some 100000 years
old, were eXcavated at the site of
the Mayf1ower when 1t was built.
An old swamp deposit contained
upright stumps. Some of the
stumps exceed 8 feet III diameter.
At the Statler site, in 1941,
workmen found a lignitized log
in a horizontal position in a
greenish sandy clay. 1t is be-
lieved this log had been washed
up on the Sixteenth street bank
from the Connecticut avenue

Clocks in Sankey's Uranium
Are Constant Wonder to Public
But Corolinu Mon
Is Used to Tick-tick
Twice Every Season
BY the Assoeio,ed Press

GREENSBORO. N. c.. May 81.
-Sankey Flynn, 81. Of Greensboro
has finally reconciled himself 70
double objective tinnitus aurium.
This means that Sankey's ears
can go on ticking audibly twice
a second for the rest of his life
and he won't care. AS a matter
of fact. he now hopes that what
ever makes with the clocks in his
head won't ever run down.
I'D feel lost without it" he ex-
plains. Listen"
You stand up close to Sankey's
right ear. Tick-tick, tick-tick.
tick-tick, tick-tick. You move
over to the left ear. Tick-tick,
tick-tick, tick-tick.
Then you look for the watch
strapped under his hair. only he
doesn't have so much hair, and
no watch.
So you ask Sankey when the
alarm goes off inside his head.
Sankey grimaces pretty politely,
considering that he has been
asked this corny question 10000
times.
Then you start to ask him if
he swallowed a me-bomb, and
then you stop. You realize that
he has been asked that one TO-
900 times. too.
And then, all at once, the alarm
goes off inside your own head. and
you wake up to the fact that the
ticking in Sankey's ears isn't ex-
actly funny affair. Sankey is
reputed to be the only man on
earth with two ticking ears, which
makes it a serious business, in
deed.
And that's the way Sankey takes
it-seriously. I've had some docs
who wanted to operate on my
ears" he says, but wouldn't let
them. Suppose I went deaf, or
something"
The "or something" is what
Sankey is really scared of-that
the ticking might develop broken
handspring. I'D miss it." he says.
You listen to your ears tick all
your life and you get used to it.
Besides that" he adds modestly,
Its my one claim to fame"
Sankey makes no idle boast

there. The ticking in his ears has
been broadcast over a national
radio network. It has been de-
scribed in scores of newspapers
and magazines. About 10000
people have stood ear to ear with
him to listen in on the mysterious
THE docs. they take X-rays,
they take look inside, they still
don't know what it is." Sankey
says. so they want to send me
to Johns Hopkins, they want to
send me to Chicago. but I don't
go. I don't want anything to
happen to these ears. Look at
them, listen to them. but leave
them alone"
Sankey, a loom fixer at White
Oak Mills, lives a normal life when
people aren't tuning in on him.
He has wife and a son, Billy,
Z, both of whom no longer joke
about winding him up at night.

America, but no record of early
man has been discovered in the
District. The earliest life of which
any evidence has been found here
existed during that CretaceouI

Giant ferns, sequoia trees; water
lilies and grapes were among the
earliest known plants. Fossil re-
mains from later deposits revealed
shark teeth and leaves of the oak
elm, sumac, holly and blueberry.
While the District is lacking ir
