SAYS Abo1ninable
Snowman Probably
Does Not Exist
By EDWIN O. WHITE

TOKYO, R-Sir Edmund Hill
larry, co-conquerer of Mt. Everest,
said Saturday all evidence to date
tends to indicate fairly clearly
that there is a rational explana-
ton for most of the stories about
the "abominable snowman" or
Yeti.
"The Yeti certainly doesn't
exist is such," he said. A Sherpa
headman at his side disagreed.
Sir Edmund stopped in Tokyo
enroute from the Himalayas to
the United States carrying what
has been described by Tibetan
villagers as the scalp of one of
the legendary snoWmen.
Sir Edmund did not show the
scalp to newsmen.
AS he departed for the United
States, Sir Edmund said the scalp
would be studied by experts at
the Chicago Museum of Natural
History and then be taken on to
London for additional study. He
said the scalp was one of the fac
tors connected with the snow
mans story that required expert
investigation.
Asked about the findings of
snowman tracks, Sir Edmund said
tracks were found but they could
be traced to small animals with
their appearance affected by
combination of wind and sun
rays.
He was accompanied by a Sher-
pa village headman, making the
trip to look after the scalp, which
must be returned to the Hima-
layas within six weeks. The head
man, Khumjo Cheumbi, told re-
porters at news conference the
Yeti does exist and said there had
been numerous cases where the
snowman had carried of human
beings.
Sir Edmund made the investi-
cation of Yeti legend as part of
still continuing investigation of
high altitude living in the Hima-
layaS.

Council of Churches
Warn Alaskans of Perils
To Bad Government

SAN FRANCISCO PA warn
ing against turning the new state
of Alaska into a casino was sound
ed at the General Assembly of the
National Council of Churches last
week.
The Rev. R. ROLAND Armstrong,
president of Sheldon Jackson Jun
ior College at Sitka said:
Alaska is heading down very
perilous road of government. To-
day a block of misinformed poll
ticians and undergraduates in
social ethics want us to solve our
financial ills through wide open
gambling.
'Many areas have primitive
law enforcement closely allied to
Sopey Smith and his rule of Skag-
way. Men are having to start new
city charters and enforce justice
without proper background and
Interpretation.
1.-THE church has something to
say here. We need, on continu-
ing basis, to give Alaskans an ex-
posture to Christian citizenship.
To implement this we need to
bring outstanding lawyers, jurists
and good politicians together with
Alaskans to show that good and
clean government, well supported
justice and enforcement are i'm
portant.'
DR.. Armstrong said so wide is
the field for church work in Alas
ka that tive cannot do all of these
things as separate denomina-
tons"

melodramatic story Of an ex-

to the thought that Italy

seen the publication of so

are books dealing with the

almost a century ago. This

tanned a touch Of chivalry, is

be expected in 1861. Y
