right out again. He further pro-
claimed that, since the boy was now
old enough, he could go along and
help. At first Marie Bascomb was
fiercely opposed to the idea. Then
she consented. John Bascomb mad
spent 80 years prowling the desert
and he never had found anything
worth while. If the boy went along
on Just one trip he would learn the
futility of such life.
It should be positive insurance
against Marie's son ever becoming
afflicted with the prospecting itch.
On hot morning in May, accom-
panied by two pack burros which
carried their supplies, John Bascomb
and his son went into the desert.
The sun rose higher. The fierce
desert heat, which is normally about
no and can rise to $50, seethed
around them. Eventually, when
John Bascomb thought they needed
it, they each had drink of water.
They travelled for days, stopping
briefly wherever John Bascomb
thought there was good place to
dig prospect holes. The boy suf-
fered but never complained. He
followed his father, sharing his
blankets and meager rations, help
ing him dig. He learned, even as
do the wild burros which abound in
that region, to drink when he needed
water instead of when he was
thirsty. Then came real hardship.
FAR OUT, at some godforsaken
place from which only John Bas-
comb knew the way back, they
suddenly found themselves with
out water. At night they had over
a gallon. With morning there was
a hole in the canteen that had held
it, and no water. John Bascomb
appraised the situation. Then he
struck farther into the desert.
Silver and gold may be very pre-
:ious outside the desert, but inside
to those who haven't got it, pound
of water is infinitely more precious
than pound of the purest gold ever
refined.
Throughout the day John Bas-
comb, his son, and the two burro:
struggled across a burning hell. The
boys lips became cracked and dry
his tongue twisted piece of rope
his eyes began to smart. Then the,
struck what John Bascomb had beel
looking fora well-defined trai
made by wild burros. They followed
that trail, and half hour later wer
shaking their thirst in a pool use,
by the wild burros.
John Bascomb looked across at hi
son, who had followed him through
out the desert and had met ever
trial the desert imposed. He say
not a spoiled tea-sipper, but 1eal
hard youngster who was capable {
doing things.
! what do you think of the desert?
John Bascomb asked his son.
8 The boy faced him levelly, sYo

"Yes," John Bascomb said. "An

National Social Fraternities
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The
University of the State of New
York has banned national social
fraternities and sororities from
its 80 campuses in a campaign
against alleged racial and re-
hgious bias.
In its breakdown yesterday on
Greek letter societies, two sorori-
ties we're suspended at the State
University Teachers College at
Cortland. The sororities involved
said they already had broken
off with their national groups.
William Carlson. president of
the State University, said Jews
and Negroes were denied men,
bership in some societies and
added:
Although they all claim a
clean bill of health and declare
that the organization does not
discriminate and that any one
is eligible for membership. unfor-
tunately we cannot take these as
SuranceS at face value.
"The real problem is not the
formal, written restrictive pro-
visions in constitutions. bylaws
and so forth. but the actual per-
nicious practices based upon in
formal and unwritten tacit un-
derstandingS and agreements. :"
: DR.. Carlson said sororities and
fraternities would be policed
more easily for discrimination
If removed from national groups.
