The curious old relic was brought up from the depths of the Mediterranean bv sponge fisher men on Easier Day. 19O0. But it remained an object of curiosity in the Greek National Museum in Athens until it was identified this year by Dr. Price. It is a highly precise mechani cal model of the earth, sun, moon and planets, fashioned by some un known craftsman about 65 B.C. give or take 10 years. It includes an intricate and pre cise set of gears, made to be turned by means of a small crank, keeping every heavenly body in proper position. It is now too delicate to touch. Dr. Price said for pieces contin ually break off. But looking care- lully, you can make out the sparp teeth of the gears and the wheels. Whoever made it must have pounded bronze or brass until it was quite thin. Then the individual gears were fashioned. Dr. Price is working on a recreated model of the original, which remained behind in Greece. Money Groups Request Hike WASHINGTON (AP) The World Bank and the International Monetary Fund want multibillion- dollar increases in their financial resources. Quotas of the United States would be boosted almost four billion dollars under the plan rec ommended to the 68 member na tions Monday by governors of the two lending institutions. The United States governor of the World Bank, Secretary of the Treasury Anderson, proposed the increases last October. The plan would increase the bank's authorized capital from 10 billion dollars to 21 billion.. The new money would be pledged by member countries, not put up in cash. A 50 per cent increase in the monetary fund's $9,193,000,000 pool of gold- and currencies would be made through increases in the contribution of each nation. These quotas would be paid in gold and cash. Under the proposal, the United States quota in .the fund would be increased to $4,125,000,000 from $2,750,000,000 The American sub scription to the bank would climb from $2,540,000,000 to $3,080,000, 000. Congress would have to ap prove the increased United States quotas. Confiscation Of Films Set KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) -Movie films that do not bear the Kansas Board of Review's seal of approval will be confiscated after Jan. 1, says Mrs. Hazel Runyan, chairman. They will be confiscated even though they are duplicates of movies previously approved by the board, she said. A spokesman for the film indus try said the proposal is a rerious threat to a theater operator who unintentionally shows a film minus the seal. Kansas is one of the three or four states that have censorship boards and film distributors may easily lose track of film copies that bear the required seals, the spokesman said. Mrs. Runyan said the board has been ordered to enforce the law, and added that the board "has been sidestepped by the film com panies in too many instances." She did not elaborate.

Sun. 1 WILLARD HOTEL l KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON AT THE By IRENE SEELY Santa C'laus has certainly been gocd to the Klamath County Mu seum this month. We have re ceived three gifts of considerable interest from three widely ditler ent sources. The first one came in from the Herbert Applcgate Post of the Spanish-American Vet erans. Only one of the original charter members of the post is slill living, Thomas M. Bielcr. Klamath Falls. He is the present commander of the post. The post is no longer active so the mem bers decided that the Charter and Muster-roll should be placed in the museum. Included in the gitt is a picture of the post members wearing original ur.ilorms. There is also a flag of 44 stars which once flew over Klamath Agency when Oliver Applcgate was the Indian Agent. Later it was used by the post. These gifts were re ceived through the efforts of Mrs. John Simmons, whose husband was the post commander before his death. The second gift came from T. G. Zinn Jr. It is a certificate from the postmaster general of the United States authorizing John T. Irish to net as postmaster at Snow, in 1R!'8. Snow was a pio neer community located on the old road near Pinehurst. The name was later changed to Shake. Of special interest is the fact given by Zmn of the finding of the date. 1806. carved on an ancient OVER THE GARDEN GATE A1.TIKAS GARDliN CLUB The AHuras Garden Club met at the home ot Mrs. William Rush at 1 p.m. on December 18 for a luncheon of quail, hot biscuits and various other delicacies. Six teen members and one guest, Mrs. Frank Carroll, enjoyed the luncheon as well as the patty and gift exchange which followed a hort business session. The club voted to donate $25 of the profits from the Christmas sale to the swimming pool tuna. It was also decided that the club would offer to help with the land scaping when the pool is finished. A troop of Girl hcouts will be sponsored by the club as a new project. A committee was chosen to dec orate the hospital and a report was heard from the committee in charge of the lighting contest. The Christmas party was a fit ting climax to a very busy sea son for the garden club members. FLAGSHIP NEARS BASE LONDON (UPli-Thc fourth So viet Antarctic expedition's flag ship Ob has reached the coastal ice cover edge near the Russian base at Mirny, the Soviet news agency Tass reported today. FIGHTS WRINKLES SOILING! Have Your Clothes Cleaned at Cascade There's No Extra Charge For STA-NU Finishing! CASCADE 11th and Klamath I Opp. Post MUSEUM juniper tree near this old com munity. The usual date given for the first white visitor to the Klam ath Basin is 1825, when Finnan JlacDonald spent a season trap ping for the Hudson Bay Com pany. Zmn says the carving has been distorted by the growth ol the tree and partially filled in by bark, but is easily recogniz able. The third gill is of particular interest to deer hunters. 11 is a particularly line mounted speci men of a mule deer. This spread of horns has been given a rating of 172'n points bv the Boone and Crockett Committee of itecords, ind is above the standard re quired to rale as an outstanding trophy. The Boone and Crockett Club was organized in 1887 by Theo dore Roosevelt at his home in New York. Its objective was to work for game and forest preser- ation and to encourage sports manlike methods of hunting. As part of this later objective, the club has set up certain high stan dards which a specimen must meet before it can be registered as an outstanding trophy. The animal was shot by Cleo Phillips, 8(17 California Avenue, Klamath Falls on Anciy Bodner's place near Hildebrand in the season of 1!)52. It dressed out at 234 pounds. Although this is not a record, particularly for size, the general excellence of the head and the horns is easily seen. Another item of interest re ceived by the museum, though it cannot be claimed as a Christ mas present, is the specimen of sott board presented by the Johns-Manville Corporation. The museum already possesses the shovel with which the cornerstone of the huilding was laid and this piece of the fil'st product of the mill will make an excellent ex hibit. We also have a long-term loan that will interest the artifactnrs of the county. Jim Worden of the Pony Pass Motel brought in a wampum belt and a frame of beautiful arrowheads. The belt is based on an exceptionally thick piece of buffalo hide, with an un usual pattern in blue beads. The points were picked up by Worden on the Rogue and the lower Klam ath Rivers. We'd also like to call your at tention to our Christmas tree. The two ladies trimming the tree are Samanlha. whose dress dates from lBfiO. and Abigail, who wears a gown of 1880. .
