Friday, Jan. 22, 1960 Ousted Ambassador Leaves Cuba Amid Insults
FRESH FROZEN SEAL—An estimated 500-year-old seal is displayed by Dr. Edward Zeller, KU geochemist. The mummified seal was found by Zellers's party while on a rock collecting trip near McMurdo Sound, Antarctica.
Professor, Student Return From Winter in Antarctica
A KU associate professor of geology and a geochemistry graduate student went south for the winter—to Antarctica, that is.
Prof. Edward J. Zeller and Ernest E. Angino, Lawrence graduate student, have returned from a two-month stay in Antarctica, one of the world's most inaccessible and unknown continents.
They collected 50 pounds of rock specimens for research into the earth's past climatic history.
This was Prof. Zeller's second field trip to Antarctica. The rocks he has collected will be dated by a process he developed using thermoluminescence, a quality of rocks which causes them to give off light when heated.
By measuring the amount of light the rocks radiate, Prof. Zeller hopes to determine the age of them.
During his first trip, Prof. Zeller learned that rocks taken from the
Frank Autopsy Inconclusive
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — Continuing autopsy examinations on Julian Frank's remains tend to show no evidence so far of powder burns from dynamite or any other explosive, informed sources said today. Nor, they said, is there any evidence so far that the airliner in which Frank and 32 others died in a crash near Bolivia, N. C., was destroyed by "willfull means."
Conclusions May Change
Civil Aeronautics Board and FBI investigators have not yet determined the cause of the Jan. 4 crash of the National Airlines DC-8B on a flight from New York to Miami.
The UPI sources emphasized that these tentative conclusions could be subject to change when microscopic examination of shattered parts of Frank's body and of the plane are completed, but they said no conclusive evidence of a man-made explosion has been found yet.
Congressional and government investigators have been looking into the possibility that Frank carried a bomb aboard the plane and blew up the craft so his family could-collect about $1,000,000 in insurance. Frank, a Westport, Conn., and New York lawyer, was reported to have been under investigation as a result of some financial dealings.
surface have been heated by the sun which reduced their light-giving qualities.
This season he took samples from one to six feet in depth. As the samples must not be heated before being processed, they are flown to KU packed in dry ice.
While collecting samples Prof. Zeller and Angino discovered several mummified seals well preserved in the ice.
One of the seals, estimated to be about 500 years old, will be shipped to the Museum of Natural History this spring.
Censorship Charges Thrown at U.S. Gov't.
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — The House Government Operations Committee today charged that the administration exercises "arbitrary censorship" to hide the facts of government from Congress and the people.
The charge was made in a report by the committee's government information subcommittee in an account of the Navy department's refusal to give the General Accounting office a study of the military sea transportation service. The GAO is Congress's "watchdog" over government spending.
Without disputing the committee assertion, five Republican members said it was time Congress quit making such complaints and took the issue to court.
