DATA FOUND OF RACE PRIOR TO MAKERS Discoveries in New Mexico Give Basis to New Theory. •* Bit Frrvtcr PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 18—Reporting the discovery "of new evidence that America xas inhabited some 15,000 years ago, Edgar B. Hoxard, anthropologist excavating for the University of Pennsylvania Museum and the* Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences, has called upon scientists to accept the view that this continent must have had human inhabitants older than the basket makers, and the other types of Indians whose manner of life is known today. The basket makers were the oldest Indians whose life in America is clearly pictured. They were farm- , ers, living in caves in the southwest during an early stage, and later, building houses. Their arrival on ! the scene in the southwest Is generally estimated at about 1.500 B C.. Howard explains At old lake beds near Clovis. N. I M, Howard's expedition found nutted masses of bones of mammoth, and of extinct species of horse and bison, and what are be- 1 lieved to be camel bones. From the position of the skeletal remains. Howard reconstructs a scene where animals in a mad desire for water trampled one another into the mud. The bones of these extinct animals - are astonishingly near the surface, j the anthropologist reported. HEART CHOKES CHICKEN freak Death Revealed as Fowl’s Head Is Chopped Off.

In it are displayed the weapons taken from their Communist opponents either in street fighting before the Nazi ascent to the government, or by house Aids afterwards. The room is richly decorated with confiscated Communist flags, including one presented by French Communists and taken in a raid on the home of Ernst Thaelmann, former Communist leader. There are also uniforms of various opposition

But Muss Gronlin came right up and said: "Are you Mr. Smith? I am Miss Gronlin. Please come and go swimming. The lake is wonderful." "Miss Gronlin." your correspondent said firmly, “I am not used to this business " “Oh, that's all right! The water isn't too deep in places " aaa THE camp is far off any traveled highway and the lake it overlooks is splendid. There were about twenty-five

groups, including those of the Republican Reichsbanner. The display of weapons Includes hand-made daggers, brass knuckles, hand grenades containing steel splinters, dum-dum bullets, rifles, and machine-pistols. Other displays include confiscated Communist propaganda, films and pictures. One of the documents most cherished by the Nazi exhibitors is the bound volume containing the reports of the attack and wounding of their hero, the student Horst Wessel, by Communists, his treatment in the hospital, and finally his death. The hospital where he was treated for five weeks has now been named for him. Chinese bronze coins of about 700 B. C. were made in the shape of little knives and other trade articles, thus indicating that the coin was worth the article represented.

The nudists don't like publicity, but when a newspaperman convinces them he is on a liver and carrot diet, then it's all right. At first. I found it very embarrassing to have a young lady walk up stark naked and announce nudism was going to sweep the nation. But she and the rest were serious about it, and appeared to feel nudism would do wonders for the world At the lake, ten other men and women were engaged in acquatic sports, of course, without the remotest sign of covering. A Miss Emery, who has charge of the dining room, came down to the pier and ripped off what little clothing she wore. She
