Staff to Film Dying Lacondon Indian Race; Trip to Cover 2,000 Miles
(Biometrics Service)
New Orleans, Jan. 18—Phlms for an expedition to the central regions of Central America and Georgia being completed by Tulane University, according to announcement by Dr. Frans Blom, acting head of the department of middle American research at the university. The expedition is by a fund, and will be known as the Goldings Gray Memorial expedition.
The expedition staff, which set out early in January, will travel about 2,000 miles, seeking ruins of old Maya cities, studying little known tribes, and venturing into the great unexe- nected forests of many middle region. In those forests are thousands of square miles very little known, Doctor Bloss immortal.
"Fifteen hundred years ago," he says, "this forest was under culture, and scattered throughout the area in the rain. The 1923 Tulane expedition found many ruins on the southeastern side of this territory. The Austrian expedition of this century discovered many magnificent cities along the Usuacina river, and as the country became the territory explored by the Tulane university, a former-mentioned river is quite like the area already explored there is littered with ancient mage some remarkable discoveries.
"The Lacdon Indian, who inhabit this forest, speak of several lakes which have never been placed on the maps and it will be one of our own," Ms. Ridgway said to Indiana, to this day, use flin-flinned arrows for weapons. They dress in hark clothes, and they worship the sun and rain gods. Their life has been studied by Professor Tazzer of the Mortemorial expedition will be the first to move pictures of this strange tribe. As the tribe is in rapid decline and dying out, these pictures will probably be the last taken by the Lacronians.
The expedition staff will consist of three or four scientists, hended by Doctor Blom.
Orion Is Sign of Winter
"Warrior" Constellation Stars Are Well Known
(Science Service)
Even if the weather was not cold, we would know now that winter is over. For the glorious constellation of Orion, the warrior is again with us, and shines in the southwest. Probably the possible exception of the Great Gipper, as is well known this, and few other groups contain as much of it as we do.

The first intercollegiate game of touch football was played recently, between Alpha Sigma Pi of Harvard and Pi Upsilon Pi of the University where it were intramural champions at their school. The game was arranged by the Brown Daily Herald and Harvard to claim the touch football championship of the East.
Betelgeuse (which has a variety of pronunciations, though bay-tell-gezse seems to be preferred) is particularly famous in this group because it was the first star to have its diameter exceeding 100 kilometers of the 100-inch reflecting telescope of the Mt. Wilson observatory a few years ago, with an attachment invented by Prof. A. A. Michelson, of the University of Chicago. This invention would eventually beBetelgeuse was found to have a diameter of 215 million miles.

On a dark night a kite eye can see at the point marked "great nebul" in the sky. This is shown up by the telescope, even a small one, as a great luminous cloud. This consists of glowing gases, formed when atoms pass through the prisms of a spectroscope. It is typical of a class of so-called nebulous gases. Gnebulus, who, in 1610, first saw Orion through a telescope, saw many stars before, proves that there is no record of having noticed the nebulus. It remained for Hayghens, in later years, who also discovered the stars in ranges of Saturn, to first pick it up.
