Accuses Huey

, 7% f-

Mrs. Ruffin G. Pleasant (above), wife of former Governor Pleasant of Louisiana, charges she was grossly insulted by Senator Huey P. Long during a chance encounter in the capitol at Baton Rouge. Mrs. Pleasant said Long called her a “drunken, cursing woman" and ordered her thrown out of the building. Widely known for her culture as a former hostess of the governor s mansion, Mrs. Pleasant says she never used profanity in her life and that not a drop of intoxicating liquor has passed her lips. Pleasant’s friends watched him closely following the incident, fearing he would attack Long, and the “Kingfish" increased his bodyguard. 13 years of age. A total of 14,300,576 are less than 16 years old. On the other hand, 6,727,927 persons more than 65 years old are working for a living. Advocates of child labor legislation and old-age pensions, designed to provide heads of families with certain incomes of adequate compensation, will find powerful ammunition in these figures.

SOVIET EXPERTS EXPLORE RUINS OF IOST CITY Divers Help in Study of Submerged Greek Town, Missing 2,000 Years. By Science Service MOSCOW, June 29.—With the aid of trained divers and telephones connected with motor boats, Soviet scientists have explored the ruins of a submerged Greek city lost for 2,000 years beneath the waters of the Biack sea. The city is tentatively identified as the famous “old Chersonesus,” j described by Strabo, classical geographer of the first century. The ruins are about ten miles south of i Sebastopol, in Crimea, and are 100 : feet out beyond the present shore | line. It appears that the shore line, | w r hich still is retreating, was pur- ! sued by the advancing sea much

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

more rapidly in antiquity, and the flourishing seaside town was destroyed. Exploration of the ruins was undertaken by an expedition of the State academy of Moscow, which first discovered the submerged town in 1930. Professor K. E. Grinevitch, in charge of the work, has had with him this season a staff of archaeolo--1 gists, architects, geologists, a moving picture unit and trained divers. In two months’ work, Professor Grinevitch reports, the existence of a submerged fortified city has been established beyond doubt, and the ruins have been charted. The divers found that city was surrounded by two strong defense walls of stone more than thirteen feet thick, and fortified by round towers at regular intervals. Within the walls, the explorers found remains of more than sixty houses built on two straight streets crossing at right angles. The center of the city was occupied by an unpaved square elevated about three feet above the surrounding ground. This square is pronounced similar to the Phyx—a place of gathering in Athens. From the plan, it is supposed that here was the ancient Acropolis of the city. That the city was a Greek settle-
