(U.R) A party of University of British Columbia scientists will wage a race with water this summer to try to uncover proof that North American Indians .originally came from Asia. Dr. Charles E. Borden, univer sity archeologist, will lead the party into Tweedsmuir Park, in north-central British Columbia. The park will be flooded by water backed up by the Alum inum Company of Canada's Ne- chako River dam. The provincial government has granted Borden $8,650 for research. Researchers uncovered several abandoned village sites in the park area last summer. Borden believes digging in the park will reveal new. proof of the lines of travel of. ancient tribes. He says it is certain that North America was populated by men traveling across the Bering Strait from Asia, down through Alaska and from there south along several "disputed routes. The scientists think that some of the lines of travel "crossed Tweedsmuir Park.
