Scientists Find Remains Of Viking Settlement In America 500 Years Before Columbus WASHINGTON (UPI) - At last scientists have found the remains of a Viking community ;in North America. ; The settlement was founded ;nearly 500 years before Christo pher Columbus sailed to the New World in 141)2. It may well be the Vinland which, according to the Ice landic sagas, was established around 1000 A.D. by Leif Eric- ,son. popularly known in his day as Leif the Lucky. It is on the northern tip of Newfound land near die fishing village of J'Anse Aux Meadows. The discovery of what so far appears to be the only scientif ically authenticated Norso re mains in America was made by the Norwegian explorer Dr. Helge lnstad, who reported his findings at a news conference hero Tuesday.

The sagas say Leif and his fleet of longboats sailed from western Greenland around 1000 A.D., arrived at the coast of Labrador, sailed down the coast until tliey passed a steep sided island in a fairly large fiord, and wound up a short distance beyond at a sandy strand fringed by luxuriant grasslands. According to modern lin- Fish Eggs Collected MOUNT SHASTA - Salmon egg collections at the Iron Gate Dam ended Wednesday with approximately 3,500,000 eggs gathered. They were brought to Mount Shasta for in cubation. More than 32,000 fish were counted ascending the Shasta River and allowed to spawn naturally. According to fish hatchery personnel, the Iron Gate Dam and the Shasta Riv er counts were above average this year. Salmon eggs collected and found not mature enough to be spawned now wore taken by truck to nearby Bogus Creek and released to spawn natur ally. Hatchery officials said with in a few years the hatchery provisions should be complete enough at Iron Gate to handle the entire salmon run without moving the eggs to another location. . tiAWi-Mi.l'ii.vlil,iifciijt3 Here - right now - ovoil oblt for charier ond rental.

And according to Dr. Junius Bird of the Ameri can Museum of Natural His tory, if you follow the route de scribed in the sagas to the site excavated by tngstad, "you can't miss it." Discovery Almost Miracle Nevertheless, "it was almost a miracle," Bird said, that Ing stad found anything at all to unearth. The old Norse build ings, nine houses and a primi tive smithy, were built of sandy sod which long since has crum bled, leaving only their outlines plus some typical Norse hearths and the rusty remains of Viking iron smelting. If, in the nearly 10 centuries since the settlement was aban doned, somebody had planted potatoes or other crops over the old building sites, the evi dence would have been de stroyed forever. Instad's findings, authenticat ed after three years of pain staking excavation, were re ported at a news conference sponsored by the National Geo graphic Society, which helped to finance his 1963 work. Disarmament Talks Pushed UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (UPIi Thirty-nine nations to day pressed for a quick re sumption of the Geneva disarm ament talks with emphasis on measures to case East-West ten sion.

It calls up on the 17-nalion conference to give "urgent and sustained at tention to the study of the var ious collateral measures which , . . seem promising of early agreement." Specifically mentioned were measures to reduce the risk of war by accident or by surprise attack, and measures intended to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons lo countries which do not now have them. Although the resolution re quests a progress report from Hie Geneva conference at an early date and a final roorting by next Sept. 1, the 17-nation parley was, not expected to re sume before January.

Premier Nikita S. Khrush chev once boasted it could "hit a fly in outer space." A giant missile, covered by canvas on a truck bed, has been seen at midnight dress re hoarsals for the annual military view in Red Square. It appears to be 50 to 55 feet long much longer than the first and second generation surface-to-air mis siles displayed in previous pa rades. The Communists claim one of tlte earlier types shot down Francis Gary power's U2 over the Soviet Union in HI60. The canvas-covered model ap parently has extra large fins, presumably for intricate ma neuvering at high speeds and altitudes. Almost nightly, tanks, rocket launchers and military hard ware of all description have rumbled through the streets in preparation for the show before Khrushchev and other members of the Communist hicrarchv.
