MEXICAN CITY HOLDS LOST RACE HISTORY; EXCAVATION STARTED f - ' v (By Associated Proas) SAN JUAN DE TEOTTHTJACAN, ,Mexico, March 24. Prospecting for I the hahlUtions of a lost race in virtually the same manner as miners dig tor. gold. federal etnoloyes here have ' Just started to uncover tne remains of a city of at least 100,000 tnhabi- ; tants which flourished 4,000 or more years ago.- Here and there over the confines of the bailed city have been sunk shafts to find streets, houses and temples known to exist below the level of the mountain valley in which lies the little village of San Joan de Teotihuacan, the name of which means in the Aztec ' tongue, "City of the Gods." The Mexican government has appropriated funds for this work of excavation which is hi charge of Manuel Gamlo, director, of anthropology of the department of agriculture. The government hopes eventually to make the spot one of the shew places of Mexico. Pyramids Still Stand. Dominating the area are the two

v j to the Moon, which for centuries have i defied the efforts of archeologists and '.historians to trace their origin. The . 'Pyramid to the Moon, is still untouched, retaining . an , appearance to the

The work of interior excavation and reconstruction is far from complete. Between this temple and the pyramid to the Sun is a stretch of onequarter of a mile which is at intervals pierced by the shafts of the diggers and In some places by the uncovered remains of a house or public building with the paint still bright and the frescoes as intact as the day they were placed there several thousands of years ago. Between the two pyramids is a well defined plaza on one side of which a street has been uncovered known as the "Path of the Dead." Planking the
plaza are hundreds of mounds which Sr. Gamio assured the correspondent

ological material have been taken from the variqus excavations. Human hones, terra cotta heads, obsidian knives, arrowheads, children's toys of clay, cooking utensils, incense burners and crude musical instruments form the bulk of the find and all are preserved in a museum which has just been erected on the grounds. Pyramids Dominate City. The two pyramids, however, are the dominant structures of the city. The pyramid to the Sun measures 761 by 721 feet at the base and is 216 feet high narrowing to a level summit. Unlike the pyramids of Egypt with its huge jutting blocks of stone forming afn endless stairs to the top, the Sun pyramid is built with a smooth surface in five distinct tiers. Ascent is made by steps built into the side and to the uninitiated the undertaking is almost perilous because of the steep incline with no supporting balustrades. It differs from its Egyptian counterparts also in the respect that it contains no interior passages or rooms. The pyramid of the Moon is smaller with a base measurement about 511 by 426 feet. It rises 151 feet with a crowning platform - about 19 feet square.

The school carnival was a huge success socially, educationally and financially. The receipts . will total over $260. Owing to the fact that several expense bills are not vet in, we cannot give the amount netted to the school, but it probably will be $175. These receipts, as you knour, go into our entertainment fund. An itemized statement, of the receipts and expenditures for this fund is published once or twice a year in our local paper. Such a statement is now in the hands of the editor, but probably will be held up until the results of the carnival can be included. Watch for the statement and you will see that this fund is being wisely used for necessary school equipment and furnishings. Socially, it has surely been a success, for it is estimated that between five and six hundred people attended at some time in the evening and everybody reports a good time. Much of the program was planned to benefit the pupils who took part in it The carnival has worked won ders in motivating much of our school work. The scientific demonstration materially increased the interest in our science work for the past six or eight weeks. The mock trial, while planned primarially for entertainment, furnished excellent practice for those who took partMany things that were sold in the curiosity shop were designed, painted and prepared by pupils of the seventh and eighth grades. Other features were planned to teach Important facts as well as to entertain. Considering it as a whole we contend that the carnival, through its motivation of school work, its influence in arousing school spirit and interest, was a grand success, aside from the social and financial results. A crowd of approximately 400 people was In attendance at "The Last of the Mohiclans," Wednesday night. The receipts were over $105. This will, of course, go into the movie fund.
