Geographic To Support Study Of Eskimo Sites WASHINGTON - An expedi tion to explore prehistoric Es kimo life In Canada will ex cavate sites at tbe northwest corner of Hudson Bay this sum mer. Depending on Ice and flying conditions, anthropologists will begin work at Thule Eskimo settlements about July 10. The project Is sponsored by the National Geographic Society In cooperation with the Na tional Museum of Canada. It will be headed by Charles F. Merbs, a University of Chicago anthropologist who has carried out earlier Arctic studies. Rich In Thule Artifacts Professor Merbs will in vestigate the coast of Roes Welcome Sound and the Wager Bay-Chesterfleld Inlet areas. The region is rich In artifacts from the Thule Eskimo culture. The Thule people began mi grating from the north Alaska coast about 1,000 years ago. One wave of migrants drift ed to the Thule region of Greenland, hence the name given now to the entire cul ture. Another wandered down the eastern shore of Hudson Bay and the Labrador coast. Between about A.D. 900 and 1300, the Thule of the main land displaced or absorbed the Dorset, a settled but little known people. The Thule thrived in the en vironment of Hudson Bay. Un like the Dorset, the newcomers used dogs for hunting anu trans portation. They killed the great baleen whale for food and oil for their lamps. The Thule developed a class ic Eskimo culture. In summer they hunted caribou on the tundra, and lived In skin-cover ed tents. They passed the long, bitter winters In their settle ments, sheltered In sturdy dwellings made of whalebone. Related To Modern Eskimo Dr. William E. Taylor, Jr., of the National Museum of Can ada, says, "One may safely con clude that racially and cultural ly the modern Canadian Eski mo descended from the old Thule culture population." Professor Merbs hopes that the 1968 excavations will give a clear picture of Thule set tlement and burial patterns. Thule biology will be studied through skeletal remains. Finds will be lent by the Canadian Gov enment to the University of Chicago for laboratory ana lysis. Archeological evidence in western Greenland Indicated that Thule immigrants traded with Norse settlements. Norse sagas also tell of Greenland meetings with Eskimos, ea the Thule may have been the first American aborigines to see the white, man. Long before the Thule came Into recorded history, the ex pression "Ultima Thule" was used by ancients to mean the end of the world. According to the Greek adventurer Pytheas (c. 300 B.C.), Thule was shroud ed In thick fog and It was a six day sail from the British Isles.

Push - button cooking has been around for a long time. Now push button cleaning of ranges looks as though It's caught on too, notes Mrs. Eileen B. Welck, exten sion home management special ist,' North Carolina State Uni versity. Self- cleaning ovens are mov ing from top-of-the-llne ranges to mlddle-of-the-llne ones, the specialist observes. After homemakers met automatic cleaning with great enthusiasm, the manufacturers of electric and gas ranges decided to make it available to more consumers by offering it on their medium price ranges. When the controls are properly set on these ranges, the oven temperature soars higher than 800 degrees. At this high temperature, the soil with in the oven burns to a fine ash. The ash Is easily removed. Other manufacturers offer ranges with oven Interiors that may be removedfor easy clean ing; oven doors that lift off so it's easy to reach inside the oven ; oven sides and bottoms that are disposable and oven sides coated with nonstick sur face finishes that may be easily wiped clean. There are some new features on 1968 ranges. Some ovens will maintain a temperature as low as 140 degrees. This is a good warming temperature for holding meals for late-com ers or for defrosting frozen foods, the specialist points out. In addition, some ranges fea ture a temperature control that will automotlcally reduce the heat. You can start a roast at 325 degrees; then If you wish, have It finish roasting at 275 degrees. The temperature con trol takes care of this tem perature change automatically. Another feature on some top of-the-llne models Is speed broiling. A special ceramic burner head in some gas rang es produces twice the heat for double-quick broiling. And at least one electric range manu facturer has placed a broiler unit at top and bottom. This allows you to broil meat on both sides at once, t i ?' Other feature* available in 1968 ranges Include warming shelves and an automatic igni tion that does away with pilot lights on gas ranges.

White decried the Break down In law and order, the disorders, looting and burn ings in our cities, the lack of responsibility that goes with freedom, and quoted at lengths from speeches of Bob Scott, showing his awareness of the problem and his determination to do something about it. "It has been my purpose here tonight to tell you why I think Bob Scott Is the man we should elect governor, White conclud ed. "The reasons which I have advanced are highly satis factory to me. I sincerely hope that you will find them satis factory to yo- I am complete ly confident that Robert W. Scott, as Governor of North Carolina, will inspire in the hearts of the responsible peo ple of North Carolina a resolu tion to act so that their con duct will be a symbol of the supremacy of the law. I hope that no matter how stressful the times which lie ahead may be that we shall all endeavor to maintain the calm neutrality of Justice, that we will continue to participate In the dignity of obedience to the law?but always maintain an underlying touch of sympathy and human kindness for all men. "To lead us during the next four years In this endeavor, it would be to our best Interests to nominate and elect Robert W. Scott as Governor of North Carolina."

Professional Is Able To Steal Car RALEIGH?If a professional thief decides he wants your car, he will probably get It. Gonzalle Rivers, Assistant Director of the Automobile Theft Section of the North Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles, says that the profes sional car thief knows all the tricks when It comes to getting away with your car. "The professional thief is Interested in turning that stol en car Into cash by a quick sale," said Rivers, "So he knows Just how to change the appearance of the car, alterthe serial numbers, and even obtain fictitious or counterfeit owner ship papers." All this makes it extremely difficult to identify a stolen car, according to the veteran investigator. But when a com plete theft report is filed, and DMV's experts get their inves tigation under way chances are good that you will get you car back. That theft report, filed by the owner, lljts vita] In formation such as make, model, serial number, color, identi fication number, and the time and place of the theft. Also on the report are de tails that only the owner him self can furnish . . . scratch es, dents, accessories, or per sonal items that might have been left In the car. You, the car-owner, can as sist law enforcement officers In Identifying stolen cars by hiding small personal items In the car. A business card dropped behind the back window, a button or a piece of Jewelery stuck under the seat . . . even the tiniest thing can be found when a stolen car is brought in for extra thorough examination by the officers. Most cars stolen by profes sionals are taken to another state for resale, says Rivers, so Identification records are exchanged by states, and also kept In central agencies like the National Automobile Theft Burea, wit h offices In Atlanta, Chicago and New York. "Should an amateur thief get your car," Rivers notes, "Your chances of getting it back In tact are good." He points out that most ama teurs take cars Just for a Joy ride , or to use for a "get away car" in some other crime. They usually abandon the car when It runs out of gas or de REMEMBER -GUARD THOSE YOU LOVE velops engine trouble. Just how great is the auto theft problem? In 1966 Mr. Riv- ] ers' department received Re ports of 5,194 vehicles stolen in North Carolina, and this num- I ber increased to 5,482 in 1967. In addition to the thefts in | North Carolina, his depart- I ment is recovering an ever In creasing number of stolen ve hicles that are brought into this , state from other states, especially from the states that do not have a title law. If your car is stolen chances are good that you will get it back, thanks to the combined efforts of local officers and state agencies. Custom-Made Chair An Alamance County husband is enjoying a custom-made chair that had a piicetag of only $20. It seems the man, Glenn Hoi - laday, 116 Trail 1, Burlington, is tall and has trouble finding chairs that are comfortable. So the Holladays decided to build a chair from-scratch. Holladay built a chair frame from scrap lumber and Mrs. Holladay reupholstered It at a recent furniture reupholster ing workshop. The completed chair is beau tiful, reports Mrs. Ann D. Jones, associate home econom ics Extension Agent. A master of ceremonies was trying to bring on a singer at a noisy Teamsters' convention, but he couldn't get it quiet. Finally one of the men, obvious ly in authority, shouted: "Okay you guys, shut up. Let the man work." Everyone quieted down. Suddenly a singer came from a side entrance singing at the top of his lungs. Without warning a fist crashed into his face and an indignant trucker said: "You heard the boss. Shut up."
