 and used until a tidal wave washed them away and the people moved to the present town site. Another fascinating bit of ancient local his tory is the story about the Russian attempt to colonize the Sandwich Islands. Can you imagine this =. they took some Aleuts from this area out to the islands and left them to establish a colony. No trace of information can I find to indicate that the Russians went back at all or as to the fate of the colonists, but l wonder if they were absorbed into the Polynesian group. The Russians took another group Of natives from Kodiak to the Farallon Islands to catch seals and seemed to have forgotten all about them. The natives who took part in this abortive venture near ly starved to death. Their only food was what they could snatch from the sea or dig out of the beaches and the only water they had was what little they could catch of rain. They were in a pitt full way when passing British ship rescued them. The natives descendants are living in Kodiak now.
 ''The Russians also sold ice to San Francisco when that city was just a raw settlement. The ice was cut from lake on Woody Island and shipped down on sailing ships. We have seen copies of old news papers in San Francisco advertis- ing Kodiak Ice For Sale. The wages for ice cutting were two or three rubles and a jot of rum a day.
 "The man who ranches out on Chirikof has gotten greatly inter- ested in the history of that island. It was used by the Russians as penal colony and the rancher has found skeletons with leg irons still on them. This whole area is so rich in history that it seems shame to me that many people come here and ignore it. One puts down roots better and is happier from learning the lore and back ground of place, though they may live here for only two or three years.
 "One of my favorite stories is connected with the iron bust of Alexander Baranof which used to set in a niche above the door of the governors house. It was un- doubtedly put there to impress the natives who came to the door each week for their pay. We own the bust now and 1 searched for a long time to discover how and who brought it to Kodiak. think the man who brought it and num- Der of oil paintings of the czar's family, likewise to impress the people here, was Count Rezanov, a nobleman of low degree who fell in love with Consuela, daughter of the Spanish governor in California. He met her on a trading mission there but the romance engendered under difficulties; the Spanish were ordered not to trade with the Russians. He was not able to make the trip to see her again for some time and when he did, his ship was lost at sea and he with it. Consuela did not hear of his death for two years and when she was told, it broke her heart. She enter ed a convent and spent the rest of her life as nun.
 Another bit of fascinating local history is Father Hermann's grave on Spruce Island. Various miracles have been ascribed to him, such as the time he was said to have turned back a tidal wave, thereby

Screen Writers
Slated to Rutify
Strike Settlement

HOLLYWOOD, June II (AP)
The month screen writer's
strike against the major movie
studios is expected to fade into
a happy ending tomorrow.
The 80 writer's involved will
vote tomorrow night on ratifi-
cation of the studios latest Of
fer, accepted last night by the
Writers Guild of Americas S
governing council. Approval is
expected.
Despite the prolonged walk
out, the movie = going public
hardly felt the effects of the
strike. Virtually the same may
be said for the big studios,
which have tremendous back
logs of scripts.
But it's a different story for
producers of television films,
also struck by the WGA. The
TV writer's strike forced pro-
ducers to scramble for scriptS.
The TV strike still is unsettled.
Details of the agreement
reached Friday night:
The writer's will get a 10 per
cent pay increase for the first
two years of their 42-month
contract. The starting salary
has been $3.50 a week.
Producers will pay 100000
to establish a health and well
fare fund.

This rating generally showed
that the wittier members were
more influential, showed great
er leadership qualities and
other desirable traits.
DR.. Smith declared that wits
"are unusually influential.
They often use witticisms to
put an individual or group
problem in perspective, or to
make the implicit, the unex-
pressed. explicit"
Also, "the unexpected remark
Of the wit, often verbalizing
what the others had only felt
or wondered about may, there
fore, reduce tension by re-
moving the uncertainty and
ambiguity Of the situation" /"
DR.. Smith said.
wits have higher stress toll
erance than Others" DR.. Smith
added. "They seem to have
stronger egos, as seen in their
more positive self-images. Their
higher ratings of the training
groups suggest they were not as
affected by the emotional stress
in a situation as were the nom
wits"
Sarcastic wits were found to
take an even more positive role
than the non-sarcastic wits in
the proceedings. Sarcastic wits
gave evidence of a strong ego
and a stronger personality, DR..
Smith said. Furthermore, they
contribute to lessening the
stress and strain of problems
among their groups, he added.

Eastern ticket holders in and
out of Miami. Other airlines
made efforts to handle stranded
passengers to other cities.
The first flareup in the dis
pute came last Tuesday when
two pilots refused to fly a jet
from Miami to New York with
an inspector in the cockpit.
After this incident, Eastern
obtained a temporary Federal
court injunction against a
strike by the pilots. A hearing
on a permanent injunction has
been set for tomorrow. The two
pilots have been ordered to
show cause why they should not
be held in contempt of court.
Some observers believe this
legal action on the part Of East
ern is what touched off the
work stoppage.

Eastern Pilots WoIkout
Cancels Flights Here

A slow paralysis crept over
the giant Eastern Air Lines
system last night as pilots re-
fused to fly planes out of
Miami.
BY late yesterday. more than
$50 Eastern passengers were
stranded here because II flights
to and from Washington had
been Cancelled.
More than 1000 passengers
had been stranded throughout
the entire Eastern system by
late in the day. And at Mi
ami'S sprawImg international
Airport, more than 10 parked
Eastern planes were creating a
massive tIdffic jam.
The pilots refused to fly
planes out of Miami in an ap-
parent protest against a new
Federal Aviation Agency regu-
lation that fight inspectors
must ride in seats directly be-
hind the captains on Jet flights.
Seat is at Issue
The pilots maintain that
that seat should be occupied by
a third pilot and that the in
spector should sit behind him

how the wits among the SO per-

Without the knowledge of the

which caused the majority OF

was made by an observer.
An additional tally was made
II, in the observers opinion, the
joke involved sarcasm or ridi-

The study indicated that sar-

Men Wittier Than Women
The study indicated that men
are greater wits than women
Half the men (22) and about
a quarter of the women (10)
made one or more funny re-
marks and were classified as
wits.
Also, there were more sar-
castle wits among the men
than among the women. There
were seven men in this cate
CORY and only two women. A
wit was classified as sarcastic
if half or more of his or her
jokes were Of the biting or
ridiculing type.

The work stoppage, which
started at midnight Friday. has
been called illegal by Eastern
officials. Capt. Edmund P.
Rordam, regional vice presi-
dent of the Airline Pilots AS
sociation, said the union had
not authorized a strike.
When scheduled pilots of out
going flights did not show up
at the airport for their mid
night flights, Eastern franti-
cally revised schedules through
out the system. However, it
was impossible to keep up with
the schedules because pilots of
incoming planes from New
