r Thursday, October 31, 1937 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Canadian Plans To Seek Australia's Lost Diamond Mine A 3 V W J-; Svdnev TO A Canadian- bom multi-millionaire clans to search for "Australia's hidden El Dorado" diamond mines worth an estimated 5100,500,000. Dr. John Williamson, whose diamond mines at Tanganyika, East Africa, are reputed to be the world"s richest, said he will return to Australia soon. He pro poses to join forces with a sya nev diamond merchant, Jules Jorls, in a diamond search near Copeton, 300 miles north of Syd ney, and at Wellington, 150 miles northwest of Sydney. Williamson said he will use the same search methods which helped him discover a $100,000, 000 Tanganyika diamond mine. River Diamonds Joris owns an alluvial diamond field at Copeton. It yields only industrial diamonds and William son and Joris will endeavor to discover the hidden main source of the Copeton diamonds. Local diamond mining experts believe the source is about 20 miles east of Copeton. Joris be lieves the mine could be worth $100,500,000. if thev find It. Williamson recently returned to his home in Tanganyika, after a brief visit to Sydney, during which he finalized plans for the searches later this year. "Williamson said he was also "deeply impressed" when shown alluvial diamonds dredged from the Macquarie river near Well ington. He said he will also try to discover their source when he returns. Calm Reaction Wellington people took the news of Williamson's interest in their diamonds calmly. "We have known there were diamonds in the river for many years," sid Rupert Christie, president of the Wellington Chamber of Commerce. "People here rarely bother to look for them because they are down so deep. They are small industrial diamonds for the most part." .TnHq railed Williamson one of the world's leading geolog ists." . "He proved that in 1940 when he found a $100,000,000 diamond mine In East Africa," Joris said. "If anyone can find the source of these diamonds, he can. Williamson replied: "Well, all these diamonds are alluvial so they must be com ing from somewhere and if they are we'll get them. Diamonds have been found In small Quantities in northwestern Australia and parts of New South Wales for many years. UCLAScheduIes Study of Yoga T.ns Aneeles (TP) A Uni versity psychologist and a brain wave expert will conduct a six month study of yoga in India in an attempt to determine wheth er there is a "third state of the min(j" so-called suspended ani mation. The study will seek to estab lish if a human being actually can shut off a portion of his brain or numb normal cellular functions at will so he feels no nain. The Investigators, UCLA psy chologist Dr. Marion Wenger and a University of Michigan brain wave authority, Dr. B. K. Bagchi, said they are primarily interested in fundamental phys iological changes, that take place in the body, if any, during the nrartire of voea. "Tor hundreds of years there have been many unverified re ports of the ability of Indian vnsis to withdraw themselves from known manifestations of consciousness." Dr. Wenger said. riiirincr these self-induced trances.' the yogis apparently approach a state that is close to suspended animation, it nas v.cAn rpnnrteri that their heart beat is slowed considerable and that they are able to go for long rfHnds without breathing." The two investigaors will use snprial 78-nound transistorized machines for their research on control of the central nervous system and involuntary respon ses in the mystery men, such as heart action and breathing. The machine is capable of re rnrdinff impulses from eight dif- federene part of the body at recorded from the brain, nor- vnur internal muscles and oth er data also may be taken be fore and after walking barefoot on hot coals.
