HUGE FOOTPRINT SEEN JOKE OR MADE BY GIANT

BAXTER SPRINGS, Kan. (APl—Maybe it was‘ some prairie Indian’s joke or maybe it's the real thing. But there it is—a footprint measuring 44 by 21 inches.

If it's real, were there gi- ants in the hazy dawn of his- tory and did one of them stride great, lumbering steps across southeast Kansas?

No one seems to know whether the print was made by a foot or a chisel. Nearby is another print, also in sand- stone, that might be that of an animal, perhaps an ox. It is 15 inches long and 12 inches wide.

A few people in the area ‘ have known about the prints for years but no one apar- ently has ever sought expert opinion about

The land where the prints are located is owned by Neil Chubbb of Baxter Springs. He says he has known about them most of his 42 years. Many years ago, a house stood near the prints and Chubb remem- bers his mother telling him its occupants u s e d the prints as a place to water their chickens.

Expects Canada Will Accept Nuclear Arms

ROCHESTER, Mich. (AP)—A political science professor at Oakland Univrsity predicted Monday that Canada will ac- cept its commitment to the United States on nuclear weap- ons.
