Missionary Feels Trip Not In Vain
(Editor's note: The following dispatch was written for United Press by Dr. Aaron J. Smith, retired American missionary from Greensboro, N.C., who led an expedition just returned from an unsuccessful 12-day search for Noah's ark on Mt. Ararat in Turkey).
Istanbul, Turkey—(U.P.) We have searched for Noah's ark and have failed to find it.
However, we feel that our research work has not been in vain. We did not come to Mt. Ararat to prove whether or not there had ever been a flood or an ark-God's work has declared that fact and our faith remains unshaken in His unalterable word.
Scientists have firmly declared that geological evidences are ample to prove that there has been in the remote past an inundation by water of a universal scope.
There are three theories that may account for our failure to locate the ark.
One is that it could have decayed because it may have rested on a lower altitude than we have presumed
A second is that it might have been covered by a glacier in one of the deep crevices many of which even row remain on the mountain. It could also have been covered with lava during a volcanic eruption. We have found evidences of such eruptions in and around the area of the Ararat mountains.
Ours was the first and only organized expedition which had the specific purpose of searching for Noah's ark.
The third theory is that the ark possibly is covered with snow in one of the deep crevices on the north side where it has been claimed to have been seen as recently as last fall.
In almost every great invention and discovery many attempts were required to finally accomplish success. We have paved the way for other future expeditions, and trust that others will ultimately bring to a successful finish what we have begun.
1949 Bendix Winner Retires From Racing
Hollywood, Sept. 19. (U.P.)—Speed pilot Joe De Bona, winner of the 1949 Bendix trophy race, said today he has retired from air racing.
"If I fly again," the veteran pilot said, "I assure you it will be slow and easy."
De Bona said he decided to quit because "I just didn't have enough time to do justice to it."
He explained that he reached his goal winning the Bendix classic.
trying was never my business except during the war," he said. "You can't be a racing pilot on a part-time basis. It's a full-time job."
De Bona, a real estate broker, set a new record of four hours 16 minutes 17.45 seconds in the Bendix trans-continental race Sept. 3, flying a souped-up F-51 owned by actor Jimmy Stewart.
D Bona also holds the transcontinental record of five hours and five seconds. He said he decided to retire before the Bendix race, his third try for the $10,000 first prize.
The 36-year-old pilot has been flying for 17 years, although he has been competing in speed races only since the end of the war.
British To Test Atmosphere For Atomic Radio Activity
Harwell, England—(U.P.) - British scientists will make balloon ascents near two atomic energy plants this month to test atmospheric conditions for signs of radio activity, a spokesman for the atomic research station here said today.
He said the work was part of an intensive program to ensure that no risk to the health of the public is caused by the development of atomic energy in England.
