INDEPENDENCE' STILL AFLOAT AFTER A-BOMB
Death Si(rn
Some member of (hp royal fam
ily of Hawaii has died, in the past
century, within 24 hours after trie
coastal waters of the islands sud
denly have become filled with mil
lions of small, red "death fishes."
As a result, the belief that their in
explicable visits presaged such
deaths grew so strong that, when
they reappeared in November, 1917,
preparations for the funeral r.f ex
Queen Liliuekalani were start) d in
Honolulu several hours before she
passed away
NEGLECTED TRAILS
Kditor The Mountaineer:
"More Highways Needed in
! W, X. (.'." says a headline, and
' many more articles about the need
ol improved roads. All this is very
nice, hut why never a word about
'. rails'.'
Is walking and hiking such a
lost form of recreation that it can
he entirely disregarded outside the
National Parks''
A a sad example, there is the
old Vanderbilt Trail to Mt. Pisgah
which must have cost a small for
tune to build. II is a trail with
an eas erade and glorious vistas
on the way. culminating in the most
outstanding paorama of any peaks
east of the rorkics.
Hut this trail is littered with
branches ;uid blocked by fallen
trees. An expenditure of less than
SL'oo would restore this beautiful
ir.ul lo ii - former usefulness and
glorv.
Down the west slope of Mt. I'is
e.ili there is an old lumber road
with an easy grade, but in many
places completelv overgrown with
shrubs. Although the road appears
on a 1. S Ecological Survey map,
a local i lub has put up a gale
across the lower end with a "no
t respnsi ng" sjon.
The trails to the Halsam Moun
tains, Whitesides, and others are J
o'ei .roun and mostly obliterated
