;tog of Indian village sites lor tne

(estimates the instrument was usea

f ; Hero IhnV Wforim ;.i amestone;

(lonj and m toches to diameter; Itf
thas a conical cylinder H-inch in dt-
,ameter at the eye end.. On the ex?
; terior is a single carved symbol, the
i nature of which is unexplained.
The telescope was. one of the nu
imerous artifacts recovered from the
I gravel pit, a graveyard of prehistor
; ic people. Archaeologists know
(tubes of this kind were employed
for astronomical purposes, because
carvings on the Mayan pyramids of
Central America' depict people of
that era studying the heavens with,
I the tubes in connection with .their
'worship of the heavenly bodies.
' Mr. Mllllgan believes that the
i Mayans, their relatives or offspring
! migrated by way of the West Indian
islands to Florida, thence along the
Appalachians to Ohio, and thence
! along the Ohio, Mississippi and Mis
isouri rivers. He points out that ar
itifaets of Mayan character have
ibeen found along this supposed
route and as far west as Yellow
stone National park.
Slouching Good for Some
Folks, Doctors Declare
Kansas City. "Chin up, shoulders
back, chest out"
But the military bearing is not
the best for every one, Drs. Louis
B. Laplace and Jesse T. Nicholson
of Philadelphia told the American
Medical association at its recent
convention here.
"Every person has a certain pos
ture, determined by his particular
build and function, which is best
suited to him," they said.
; "Slouching" Is good for some peo
ple, or, in the words of the doc
tors, "there are many persons
whose optimum physiological func
tion is attained in a posture which is
not entirely correct by orthopedic
standards."
In such -persons, they believe,
"the greater spinal curve" compen
sates for individual differences in
body structure and physical activ
ity. Studies of twenty-three healthy
men' and women, they reported,
showed that "vital capacity" the
functioning of the heart and blood
system can be diminished "by ex
treme correction of posture as well
as by a marked slump."
They found two persons, however,
whose blood circulation improved
with corrected posture. "Flexibility
of posture" results in the best vital
capacity and each case requires in
dividual study, they conqhided.
New and Simpler High
Power Air Fuel Produced
New York. A new fuel for avia
tion engines was described by W. S.
Farish, chairman of the board of
the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey, and F. A. Howard, presi
dent of the Standard Oil Develop
ment company.
The fuel is a synthetic one com
posed of gasoline, isopropyl-ether,
itself a product of a gas now pro
duced in large quantities in most
large oil refineries and a small
quantity of tetraethyl lead. It is
still called by its laboratory "incu
bator" name, "EL-435."
The discovery of the blend using
so common a by-product as isopro
pyl ether, Mr. Howard explained,
assured the aviation industry of be
ing able to obtain in ample quan
tity and at commercially practical
prices fuel of 100 octane rating
which had .heretofore been made in
a different way and confined to mili
tary use.
Tests indicate that the new fuel
will give an increase of 30 per cent
in power.
