FRONT PHONE 2-7207 Travelers in India Describe Taj Mahal; Beirut on Itinerary India is having the hottest summer in 75 years according to Dr. and Mrs. Bert R. Elliott, who have been spending a few weeks in that country during their around-the-world trip by air. Dr. Elliott wrote that he had placed flowers on the spot where Gandhi was shot and also on his grave, and that the couple had visited the Taj Mahal, which the traveler described as "exquis ite." "From each of the eight big rooms one may see the queen's tomb in the center of the building," he wrote. "I guess she deserved the honor as she is reputed to have borne the king 18 children in 17 years." "The Taj Mahal has been given such a 'build up' that we were disappointed," Dr. Elliott wrote. "We prefer the deserted city of Ambar, near Jaipur." He also wrote of having visited the Calcutta YMCA building, a part of which was used in 1862 by Reginald Heber, composer of "Holy, Holy, Holy," "Green land's Icy Mountains" and other religious music. "An appropri ate plaque stands over the huge gate," he wrote. "The Red Fort of Delhi is historical and worth while, as is King Asoka's pillar, erected in 300 B.C. New Delhi is the eighth Delhi. The others are in various stages of decay." The traveler also wrote that he and Mrs. Elliott had visited two places where elephant fights are held, and that tiger and ele phant fights are also held. Wo rode an elephant to the top of a hill about like Roxy Ann, and back," he wrote. "This was at the deserted city of Am bar. At the noted shrine there they had just killed, as they do each day, a goat as a sacrifice. Formerly a human sacrifice was made daily: the victim was de termined by lot. At this shrine thev were very particular that we remove all leather as kodak cases, belts. purses, watch band and of course, our shoes. Our Moslem guide couldn't even go in at all. "AH this is nine miles from Jaipur, the 'pink citv' and our favorite of India. We flew up from Delhi in 55 minutes and spent nine terrible hours In a side door 'pullman' of a tiny train coming back. Had a good view of the Ganges river as we flew over. Land here is sold in 12 by 12 'acres.' "They have a man pulling and releasing a rope which operates a fan cooling the god, made of concrete. At the King of Am ber's temple they have 400 unique buggies, surreys, camel busses, carts, etc., along the line of the one we occasionally drive in Medford parades. "The refugees back and forth between India and Pakistan are a pitiful problem." Dr. and Mrs. Elliott's itinerary called for them to spend May 31 to -June 5 in Beirut, Lebanon, and from there they go to Cairo, Egypt.
