G. S. Fisher, Flnleyvllle. Pa., arch eolcglst, dressed in short trousers when he first began poking around old Indian mounds for flint knives, beada and other odd objects peculiar to early Indian civilization. Although he has collected thou sands of relics through the years, he considers his discovery of the skull of a crowned king of the Fort Ancient period his most Important disclosure. The reason for this belief is that the skull of a prehistoric man ex cavated by Prof. R. J. Stlllwell of Princeton in Oreece last year was similar In many respects to the one found by Fisher in an ancient earth works near Elrama, Pa. Moat important fact. Fisher be lieves. Is that both skulls were adorn ed with the same headdress, which was composed of fresh water snail which he was riding with sir other youths crashed Into a tree .t Moore park.

Phone 418 shells which dangled ribbon-like over the head. Fisher's discovery bore 624 shells, while that of Dr. Stlllwell was mnde up of 714 shells. Another of Fisher's discoveries is that the prehistoric men who wan dered around what Is now western Pennsylvania spoke the same lang uage as those who lived in Europe during the same period. Picture writ ing unearthed by Fisher corresponds with the writing found by Dr. Still well. This particular form of writing has resisted effort of scientists to de cipher it. Fisher believes that when this Is accomplished, the vast un known history of America's earliest men will be recorded. The Flnleyvllle archeologist Is as sociated with the University of Mich igan In his work. During his life. Fisher has exca vated more than 200 mounds and earthworks. A few years ago he sold his collection of 28,882 pieces for $40,000. Since then. It has amassed a sizeable collection of pottery", tools and crude weapons.

ART INVENTORY IN SPAIN LISTS 53 NEW GOYAS All Works Are Catalogued By Loyalists In Terri tory Now Held Aim Is To Keep Treasures Home By Jan H. Vlmlrlch United Press Staff Correspondent. LONDON ( UP ) Amid the rain of bombs and shells on Madrid, the last edition of Goya's famous engravings has been published, Don Tlmoteo Rubto. director of the Junta Naclonal del Tesaro Artlstlco, told the United Press when he arrived in London to arrange an exhibition ot vnem. The edition comprises "Los Dcsaa tres de la Guerra" (The Disasters of the War), "La Tauromaqula" (The Art of Bullfighting), "Los Caprlchos" (The Caprices) and 100 hitherto un published examples of the . famous engraver's art. Don Tlmoteo said the government had decided that after the comple tion of this edition the plates would be returned to the archives and no further edition will be published. The reason, he explained, was that the original plates were used and the Issue of an edition meant a certain amount of wear. Art Inventory Made The Spanlah government Is making an Inventory of all the works of art In loyalist Spain, Don Tlmoteo said. Included In this catalogue will be paintings and artistic objects which for years have been hidden from pub lic view In private houses. He de clared that S3 new Goyaa already had been discovered. "The object of the catalogue," Don Tlmoteo aald, "!i to prevent .Spain's works of art from leaving the country. The government does not take over the artistic projects, but merely sees that they are not sold for export.1 Asked what has happened to the- priceless art treasures of Toledo, par ticularly the famous Oreco painting 'The Burial of the Count of Orgax. he said the work wa taken from the church wall on which it waa hanging and laid on the floor. Then It waa covered with boards and sandbaga to protect It from aerial bombs or shell fire. The art treasures of Toledo, however, fell Into the hands of the Nationalist when General Francisco Franco's troops captured the city. Owners Refuse Protection "What haa happened to them since, I do not know," Don Tlmoteo said. "I should like to hear that Frt nco h aa appoi n ted some board similar to ours for the protection of art treasures In his territory. In the early days of the war when we could have taken valuable paintings and works of. art out of threatened towns and village and transported them to Madrid, wa had to overcome the op position of the owners and local authorities, who refused to allow them out of their care even though It meant taking them to a safo place. "Here U a case In point. When Franco was marching on nilescas, we found several works of art there which we wished to take to Madrid. The mayor opposed this, but finally consented to pack them up and take them to Madrid himself. "He deposited them In a strong box in the Bank of Spain and went off with the key. We could not find btm, so had to force the strong box. We did so only Just In time. The paintings were all but ruined, but we managed to restore them." Restoring paintings which hava deteriorated through neglect is an Important part of the Junta's work. Don Tlmoteo displayed several pho tographs of numerous paintings be fore and after restoration.
