And, perhaps most challenging
of all, it will seek to establish
the true nature of creature which
has never been positively iden-
titled.
The yeti, or abominable snow
man, has been a legend of
the Himalayas for a half century
or more. Sherpas, the Nepalese
porters who guide expeditions, be-
.lieve it is a half-human creature
which lives in caves and shuns
contacts with humans beings. To
Westerners, its only trademark is
footprints in the snow.
The first authenticated sight
ing of its tracks was made in
1921 by Sir Howard Bury, a
British mountaineer then recon-
noitering Everest. Bury's Sherpas
were terrified by the huge foot
prints. They said the trachs, were
made by man of the snow.
An adjective used by the Sher-
pas could be translated either as
fierce or filthy-which led to the
term abominable snowman.
Bury's report caused a sensa-
ton in Western newspapers, but
16 years passed before new
tracks were discovered by anoth-
ank Smythe, at 10000 feet in
the Garwal area of the Indian Him
alayas. Numerous other sightings
followed, and so much interest
stirred that five fullscale expedi-
tions in search of the yeti have
been made since World War ii.
The closest approach to finding
him was made in 1851 by explorer

u. S. IMPORTS CIVIL
WAR RELICS
By CHARLES STAFFORD


AP Newsfeatures Writer
Lend-lease has taken re-
markable turn.
Suddenly, Europe is shipping
war material tot he United States.
Civil War materiel, that is.
kentucky fiintlocks" manu-
factured in Italy," says recent
edition of the British weekly,
Punch, are selling briskly in
the American Civil War. Italian
gunsmiths can make them more
cheaply than anyone else"
But there is more to this than
flintlocks. And it's a fine tea pot
that's calling the spaghetti kettle
black
A British firm that used to make
Confederate uniform buttons a
century ago is turning out thou
sands of them now, using the old
dies, says N. E. Warinner of Rich
mond, Va, hunter and collector
of genuine Civil War battlefield
relics.
This sudden increase in the
manufacture of war materiels 95
years out of date is an economic
reaction to the approaching Civil
War Centennial observance The
demand for war relics, already
good, is expected to skyrocket
when the centennial begins next
year.
Warinner, an official of the
Virginia Historical Society, is
one of hardy band of lobbyists
who scour old battlefields for
relics. Their tools are a shovel
and post-World War II version
of a mine detector. What he can't
use for his own collie n,
Warinner sells.
Here are some of his prices:
58-cal. MIME balls, Is cents each
Tin lots of 500 to 1000, only 10
cents each) Starr car b n e
bullets, $3.50 each; US. uniform
hat ornaments, $5; US S. Infantry
officer buttons, As cents; mus
ket, $40.
A rebel to the far tip of his
Southern drawl, Warinner doesn't
sell any of the Confederate mate
riel he finds. But he quotes the
going rate for a Confederate belt
buckle as $65 while a uniform
button brings about $50.
He has a Confederate staff Off
GERS button, emblazOned with an
eagles crest and the initials
"CSA." "I've turned down $50 for
it, so it must be worth some
thing" says Warinner.
And he knows of a naval Off
GERS button with a full-rigged
ship on it that sold for $125.
By contrast, the British-made
Confederate buttons are selling
for 35 cents to SIS.
The Italians are marketing
their flintloc as repro
ductions." And there is no evil
dence that the English firm is
attempting to palm off its buttons
as actual relics.
But, as Warinner points out,
there is nothing to prevent un-
scrupulous retailers on this side
of the Atlantic from neglecting to
mention that these items were
only recently manufactured. For
several years, souvenir shops at
Gettysburg, Pa, have been sell
ing battlefield relics" without
bothering to mention that the
relics came from Virginia battle
fields rather than the one at

Reds Protest
Berlin Flights

BERLIN, Mar. (AP).-The
Soviet Embassy in East Berlin
said today resumption of high
altitude flights to Berlin by
Western Big Three planes
would be violating past prac-
tees"
But an Embassy spokesman
declined to say whether So
Wet fighter planes would be
sent up against United States,
British or French planes flying
above the 10,000-foot ceiling
imposed by the Russians on
isolated Berlin'S air corridors.
Soviet fighter planes buzzed
but did not attack United
States supply planes last April
when they def1ed the ceiling
rule. None of the Big Three
recognizes the ceiling.
U. S. Halted Flights
The United States halted the
high altitude fights at the
prompting of the British, who
feared a serious incident. A
report from Washington yester-
day said the Allies are notifying
the Russians of their intention
to resume the high altitude
flights.
If we get something con-
crete in the form of a note. ="
the Soviet spokesman said,
then we can talk about it.
Naturally we would have to
talk with our allies, especially
the CDR Communist East
Germany about it."
He indicated that any high
altitude flights would be con-
sidered a violation of East Ger
many's air space.
Plans Being Made
In Washington responsible
authorities said plans are being
made for a new fight above
the 10,000-foot altitude despite
Soviet objections.
These sources said date for
the flight has not been fixed,
but that the SovietS will be
notified shortly before the first
high altitude plane takes of
from West Germany with sup
plies for the west garrison in
that divided city.

supply mission, giving no more
advance information than pro-
vided for routine low altitude
trips.
This would be in keeping
with the Western viewpoint
that the Soviets have no right
to set altitude limits.
Informed officials said that
flight probably will be made by
a C-l30 Turboprop-the same
type of plane that made the
flight 10 months ago. The State
Department has said such a
plane operates best at higher
attitudes.
The plan apparently is to
treat the flight as a normal
The allied decision to resume
high-altitude flights is con-
sidered a bold move to counter
the increasing pressure the
Soviet Union has been putting
on West Berlin, 10 miles be-
hind the Iron Curtain.
Purpose of Flights
When last springs flights
were made, there was fear in
the West that there might be
another ground blockade of
Berlin.
The flights had a twofold
purpose: Cd To demonstrate
that giant C-l30 cargo planes
which fly more efficiently at
attitudes above 10000 feet
could be used to supply West
Berlin, and (2) to show that
the allies would not allow the
Russians to dictate to them on
flight levels or anything else
involving Berlin.
A spokesman for the British
mission said he knew of no
advance word having been de-
livered here of a resumption OF
high altitude flights.
In Paris, a French Foreign
Ministry spokesman said he
knew of no plans for high level
flying to begin Immediately be-
tween West Germany and West
Berlin.

Mr.. Khrushchev is believed

and Mr.. Nehru would again
discuss the bitter dispute be-
tween Peiping and New Delhi

Himalayan territory claimed by
both nations.
Stayed Neutral
During his previous visit to
India, Mr.. Khrushchev took
neither side in the dispute.
Publicly he said only that he
hoped India and China would
soon reach an agreement. While
the Soviet Premier was in Indo-
nesia, Red Chinese Premier
Chou En-lai accepted Mr..
Nehru's invitation to meet in
New Delhi to discuss the border
dispute.
Burma also has been involved
for years in a border dispute
with Peiping but recently
reached an agreement. A Ran
COON newspaper reported yes
terday that U NJ was making
the Calcutta trip to discuss the
possibility to a conference of
Asian and African leaders SIM
liar to the Banding conference
of 1855.
After a brief. informal air
port reception, Mr.. Khrushchev
drove into Calcutta with Mr..
Nehru. Police we're prepared
for large crowds along the
route, but only thin lines of
people turned out in the mid
day heat Of a working day.
Mr.. KhruShchev told a gath
ering of $4,000 in the Calcutta
Cricket Stadium the Soviet
Union does not want to use
force Of arms either in diplo-
macy or politics and is the first
to suggest general and complete
disarmament"
With Mr.. Nehru beside him,
Mr.. Khrushchev paid the
standard Russian tribute to the
development of friendly rela-
tions and peaceful coexistence.
He added that "the warm and
friendly meetings in your coun-
try. in Burma and Indonesia
we're vivid manifestations of
the sympathy of the peoples of
these countries for the peoples
OF the Soviet Union"
Mr.. Khrushchev pledged con-
tinued aid to India'S economic
development.
He was interrupted only a
few times by applause. He was
to be guest of honor at a state
banquet tonight.

Panama Flag

PANAMA, Mar. (AP).-
Panama's flag went up beside
the Stars and Stripes today
along the Canal Zone boundal $
where Panamanian demonstra.
tors trying to plant the banner
clashed with United States po-
lice and troops last November. .
The small Panamanian en-
blems will not stay up, how
ever. United States authorities
in the Canal Zone ordered
them put on lampposts for to-
days carnival parade climaxing
the annual four-day celebra-
ton.
The line of March will pass
down Fourth of July avenue in
the United States-operated
Canal Zone, and United States
officials ordered the Panama
nian insignia posted in an effort
to counteract plans by ma
tionaliSt agitators for another
flag demonstration.
Brought Earlier Clash
When Nationalist demon
strators tried to plant their
flag in the Canal Zone last No
vember as a symbol of Pana-
mas sovereignty over the
United States-controlled area,
more than 80 persons were in
jured in clashes between the
demonstrators and United
States Canal Zone police and
troops.
Panamanian officials did not
order the National police out
then until the demonstrators
had battled repeatedly with
the American guards on the
boundary. This time Pana-
manian officials indicated they
we're ready for trouble should
it develop.
One official indicated that
known troublemakers might
be rounded up before the fes-
tivities start. Canal Zone au-
thorities indicated they, too,
were ready to cope with any
violence.
Authorities said two Com
munist students from the Uni
versity of Panama were among
those planning a demonstra-
tion. Student sources said a
professor who has visited be-
hind the Iron Curton was also
among the promoters.

throngs estimated at two mil

and practically silent-crowds
lined the streets.
Hit Western Aid
1t was in Calcutta, on Febru-
ary Is, that Mr.. Khrushchev
began a series of strong attacks
on Western economic aid to
underdeveloped n tions. He
called Western aid a dole de-
signed to keep the underde-
veloped nations in colonial
slavery and contended that
Soviet aid, by contrast, is given
to build up independent econ
omieS.
Mr.. KhruShchev began these
attacks-in a nation which
badly needs aid-only after he
left Mr.. Nehru in New Delhi.
At a farewell banquet last
night in Jakarta. the Indonesian
capital, the Soviet Premier ap-
proved Indonesia's neutral pol
icy but reiterated his convic-
ton that communism will win
out over capitalism eventually
Il am not asking you to join
communism" he told Indo-
nesian President Sukarno. I'VE
will take the course of COM
munism, and you should take
your own way.
Let us be friendly with each

from him. He's been just
great"
It's "Slow and Easy" off the

former Notre Dame llneman
moves with a seemingly half

energy for more important
things, but on the field he's a

Toneff and Ray Krouse give
the Redskins a couple of de-
fensive tackles who can hold
their own with any in the
league. Krouse has not yet fully
recovered from the stomach

his career in training camp.
But it's a long season and the
Redskins aren't worried about
him.

he sometimes plays the first

to watch him. Give Ray a

his position, either.
