There is an X-ray Of time.
Earth's upper layers become
seemingly transparent in air
photographs which reveal
buried remnants Of ancient
civilizations.
"It is as If they were at
the bottom of q clear water
lake" says Darsie Gillie of the
U. N. Educational, Scientific
and Cultural Organization in
the current journal Of the Ex-
plorers' Club.
ITO an air-borne observer"
he remarks, "the plan Of q
neolithic village, Roman camp
or ancient city In Cochin
China will be plainly apparent.
Photographed and examined
at leisure it will reveal the
right place for the archeologist
to dig and will restore the
whole plan Of settlement as it
appeared 1000 years ago."
There are several reasons
for this curious phenomenon,
it is explained. Where man
has turned UP the soil. has
worked deeper in one place
than another, or has left
wooden buildings to decay,
grass will grow more lush,
crops will be taller. and
flowers brighter. Where he has
left stone foundations. or
where only a thin layer Of soil
covers ruins Of stone or brick
buildings and vegetation will
be shorter and thinner.
Photograph Tells Story
Examples are cited. A pho
tograph Of a field in south
western England showed dark
marks Of richer vegetation
where the wooden columns Of
a Bronze Age sanctuary once
had stood. In England's damp
climate no piece Of timber
could possibly endure for 1000
years but the decayed wood
had enriched the soil for that
length Of time.
The technique has been
adopted by French archeolo-
gists in Algeria, Tunisia, Syria
and Indo- China, by Americans
in Persia and by a British
scholar in Italy and Greece.
On Roman frontiers in North
Africa it has been possible to
trace from the air the entire
system of the empires de-
lenses over hundreds of square
miles as well as the irrigation
systems that supplied water
for the Roman soldiers. BY
the same system the outer

@. What makes photograph
records collect SO much dust2
%. r.
A. Static electricity built UP
in the records attracts dirt and
dust. One record manufacturer
recommends q damp (not wet)
lint-free cloth to wipe of the
dust and at the same time
eliminate the static electricity.
There are chemically treated
record cloths available for the
same purpose. =

@. How big are the sailfish
caught in the Atlantic?-R. s.
A. The average size Of those
caught of Florida or in the
West Indies is between S5 and
so pounds, and q catch smaller
than rs pounds is unusual.
Atlantic sailflsh may grow to
about 8 feet in length. and
weigh 100 pounds or more.
Pacific sailfish are larger. and
specimens weighing over 200
pounds have been caught. \

the wide gulf between the
motivation and conduct Of the
jamestown colonists and those
who came on the Maylower
to Plymouth. He is, Of course,
right. While the jamestown
celebrants keep reminding us
that theirs was the first per-
manent settlement in America,
they pass over the fact that
jamestown was an English
settlement on American shores
whereas Plymouth and the
other. Massachusetts, colonies
from the very outset took
measures to assure their iden-
tity as Americans. jamestown

tered. like all the early settle
ments. yielded back her char
ter in 1925. content to accept
English rule and all that
went with it. The Massachu-
sets colonies retained their
form Of self-government until
1885 when James the Second
recalled all colonial charters.
In 1884 the Massachusetts,
Legislature adopted q code
which spelled out many Of the
principles of freedom and in
dependence embodied in our
Federal Constitution a century
and a half later. In this code
strict boundaries of the area
of religious authority as dis
tinct from state authority were
designated. No comparable act
looking toward separation Of
church and state can be cited
from early Virginia history.
English law and practice APP
parently was all right.
In 1855 Massachusetts mint
ed the first colonial money. the
pine tree shilling, itself an act
Of rebellion as the coin bore no
imprimature Of the throne.
While the brave words Of pa
triots like Patrick Henry have
thrilled us, where are the in
cidents in Virginia comparable
to the Boston Tea Party, the
Boston Massacre and the
armed resistance at Concord
and Lexington?
We are, of course. compelled
to recognize the fact that. had

and the French and Indians.
all the early colonists might
have been swept into the sea.
But. as Mr.. Gilbert brings
out, the spirit which produced
a new and independent nation
could hardly have originated
with those who for so long
gave evidence Of satisfaction
with the kind of government
and authority that was exer-
cised by the British throne.

of the program are lacking, but in 1859 the
Army expects to have enough data to

Of entertainment featuring
music, singing and dancing.
This fall two weeks of in
tensive Tamburitzan training
took place in northern Min
nesota where the group per-
fected their new production
under the very able direction
of Matt l.. Gouze, internation-
ally famous tambulitzan di-
rector.
Prior to this, they pre-
sented three "smash hit"
performances during the
International Naval Review
staged in the Hampton
Roads area in Norfolk,
Virginia.
The youthful musicians,
singers, and dancers held
their audiences spellbound in
the first program section en-
titled "Tamburitza Land
and had the foreign sailors
literally eating out of their
hands during the Cafe In
ternationale" section.
Many sailors from
France, Italy, Spain, Bel
gium and the South Ameri-
cas- returned for every per-
formance and stood applau-
ding as the group took at
least five encore curtain
calls per performance.
