S SO million jackpot found by treasure hunter

To the Pennsylvania man who found a sunken'treasure valued at up to $50,000,000 the search wasn’t all that romantic — it was just business. “I planned this venture as a business,” said Burt D. Webber. Jr., of Annville, at a news conference in New’ York city. He likened it to "wildcatting” for oil. Webber’s team located the Spanish galleon Concepcion off the coast of the Dominican Republic last November after a two-year search. He had already regained his $500,00-0 investment. Gave Up Career The 36-year-old diver said he got into treasure hunting after giving up a military’ diving career because of asthma. He w’ent on his first Caribbean treasure hunt in 1961. He then spent part of each year working in factories or as a bricklayer to sup[>ort his wife. Sandra, and their fcur children. Two years ago. he won the financial backing of a Chicago investment broker and founded Seaquest International. It took aim at the Concepcion, which sank in 1641 during a storm. Webber’s nine-man crew got nowhere until a Seaquest researcher. Jack Haskins of Florida, found a ship’s log in England detailing the voyage of William Phips. In 1687. Phips reportedly, removed 32 tons of silver from the ship. Phips is the only other treasure hunter known to have found the sunken ship. On November 25, the Seaquest team set out again, finding the Concepcion within t hree days. Webber said the -emains of the ship and its treasure are scat-

AN OUTSTANDING EVENT "And as He went, they spread their clothes in the way. And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for alt the mighty works that they had seen: Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven, and glory in the highest." ' This is the way Luke records the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem in Luke 19:36-38. This event in history is a matter of record. It has greatly affected the course of human events. This Sunday, Palm Sunday, is the anniversary of this remarkable incident jn the Life of Jesus Christ. However, this outstanding event is completely overshadowed by the ENTRY OF JESUS CHRIST INTO THE HEARTS OF BELIEVERS. How about you, friend, have you invited Jesus to come into your heart and change your life? Your answer to this question is the most important answer of your life. Think about it! Do something about it! J'JB • Sunday School — 9:30 A.M. • Morning Worship Services — 10:30 A.M.
