The city has doubled it's wage

Meanwhile, the Transit Au-

Tells Of Work
On Maya City
By WILLIAM HINES
Star Science Writer


CHICAGO, Dec. 81. - An
aboriginal Colonial Williams
burg" is shaping up in the
wilds of Yucatan under the
direction of a Poolesville CMd)
archeologist.
DR.. E. Wyllys Andrews told
of the restoration of Dzibil-
chaltun, 4,00o-year-old me-
tropolis of the Mayas, at a
closing session of the Ameri-
can Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science meeting
here last night. DR.. Andrews
work is being sponsored jointly
by the National Geographic
Society, the National Science
Foundation and the American
Philosophical Society.
Biggest in New World
A vast complex of ruins a
few miles from the modern
Mexican city of Merida, Dzibil-
chaltun has been hailed by
archeologists as the largest
ancient settlement in the New
World. In its heyday, some
$4,000 persons of advanced cul-
ture occupied a built-up area
about one-third the size of the
District of Columbia.
The reconstruction of Dzi.
bilchaltun is now in its thirc
year. DR.. Andrews estimates il
will take five more years oi
painstaking labor to uncover
and in some cases rebuild key
buildings of the ancient town.
Occupied Continuously
The archeologist, a member
Of the Tulane University Mid
America Research Institute
said Dzibilchaltun is unique
among old cities Of the Ameri'
cas- in that it has never ceaseC
to be occupied in the fouI
millennia of its existence. Ever
today, two villages and sever
thriving haciendas-with a tota
population of possibly 10000
exist within the limits of the
pre-Christian settlement.
PreSent-day residents Of the
villages are direct descendants
of the Mayas who built temples
mausoleums and civic buildings
They remember nothing oi
their ancient forebears or the
old gods, although they con-
tinue to speak the aboriginal
Maya tongue.
Great Handicaps
DR.. Andrews emphasized ir
his talk that Dzibilchaltun was
built by men who had no meta
tools, no beasts of burden anc
no wheeled vehicles. Despite
these disadvantages, he said
they cut. hauled and used hun.
dreds of millions of pounds o,
stone.
A hand-operated chain hois
is virtually the only piece o
mechanical equipment on th'
site.

out that they did call for racial

But it is just in the area of

are most pronounced. While
the Episcopalians have reeog-

though Methodists in other

1t takes much charity to

is at the bottom of the pole in

The film told the story of a careless teen
