island Born Archaeologist Leaving Shortly For Greece

PIIOSPEGTS BRIGHTER

Charlottetown can boast of hav- ing produced at least one archaeo- logist-Dr. Cedric Boulter. who lectures in the subject at the lini- versity of Cincinnati. Dr. Boulicr. can of Mrs. J. W; Boullcr and the late Mr. Boulter who was well known as manager of the Potato Grower's Association and secretary of the Exhibition Commission, is vacationing at his mother's home in Charlottetown, prior to depart- ure in September for a year's work in Athens. Greece.

Upon graduation from Prince of Wales College and Acadia Unl- verslly. Dr. Boulter spent a your in post graduate study at Johns Hop- kins, and made his first trip to Greece in 1934-35 on a fellowship offered by the American School of Classical Studies at Athens, which is supported by a number of Amer- ican universities. Upon return, he took his doctoral degree at the University of Cincinnati and re- mained there as a lecturer in archaeology. A three year period during the war was spent serving with the R.C.N.V.R.

The American school has at in- tervals since 1931 been conducting excavations upon the site of the Athenian Agora, the political. re- ligious, business and social centre of the city during the great. age of Greece, the classical era from aoo B. C. down to Roman times. which produced the philosophers and thinkers whose influence has moulded world culture ever since.

Will flake Report

In search of suppiemcniary in- formation to what has already been derived from -previous study. Dr. Bouiter will examine the mat- erial uncovered at the "dig". and his report. will be published in con- junction with the rt-st. of the American school's report upon its findings.

Dr. Boultcr. who specializes in the field of ceramics, one of the oldest crafts known to man, quot- ed a favourite archaeological paradox-that "the value of pot- tery to archaeological study is de- rived from its being so perishable and yet so indestructible." Pottery, unlike wood. textiles. metals. and other remains of past. civilizations. does not disintegrate and often, al- though broken into fragments. suffers litt-lc change over a period of two or three thousand years. in an age when archaeological examination is often conducted upon ”stral.lfied” sites-those upon which sevcral eras have developed, flourished. and faded into earth, to be hidden by succecding ages- potlery, which may be classified as to age by the techniques and designs used in its manufacture is often a useful foundation on which to build furlhcr knowledge of the subject.

Particularly in p1'ccla.s'sicalGrcece, an age of highly developed civil- ization possessing writtcn records which it has not been possible in decipher, much valuablc informal.- ion has been acquired through the

study of pottery. aside from its purely artistic value. 4th Expedition The coming trip will be Dr.

Boultt-r's fourth expedition to the East. In 1937 he worked with a University of Cincinnati group upon the site of ancient Troy in Asia. Minor, tho first landmark of archaeological technique. Previously believed to bc pure- ly mythical. llnmcr's great epics. the Iliad and the Odyssey. were substantiated by a Gr-rman archaeo- logist, Heinrich Schliemann. in 1870. Schliemann was not a pro- fessional scholar but it German business man who read Homer as a boy. accumulated a fortune, and used it to find and cxcavatc the site of Troy.

in the years from 19.12 to 1938. the University of Cincinnati madt: a re-examination of the strata and subdivisions of the site, using modern fine iooih comb methods

A .soui-inspiring mcssagc was then delivered by Rev. Mr. Croc- kett which made a dccp imprcs- sion on the capacity congrega- tion. The benediction was pro- nounced by Rev. Dr. McKcn7.ic.

It is a steady market. es- pecially for smoked and pickled eels, but the long term trend is expected to be downward as pres- ent buyers become absorbed in their adopted country and turn more to American dishes.

The market for mussels is even narrower, but. it was suggcsicd that the Committee might pos- sibly explore the European niarkci; for new outlets. Dr. Necdlcr stated that at present the price to fish- ermen in Northern Europe is ap- proximately 51.50 per pound for eels.

new Method of Shipping Lolntm

A relatively recent method of shipping fresh lobster meat to United States and Upper Canad- ian markets was mentioned yester- day at the meeting of the P. E. 1. Fisheries Development Committee.

Mr. R. E. S. Humans, of the Fisheries Department Inspection Service. Halifax. told how such shipments had mushroomed in volume in New Brunswick factor- lea recently. The fresh meat is simply extracted from the lobsters and dumped into large cans for shipment. It is less trouble than

processing as the latter requires vcl'y careful washing. However, he said. there was

some danger of Contamination be- cause of the lack of thorough washing. But -it. was thought that with greater care being taken by the packers this method of ship- ping eventually could become a big business.

the most general pn of fish in this Province. and of the fish so packed lobster is the most im- portant. It was inted out that the principal dl ficulty encounter- ed here was the relatively short season. This it was statvcl is be- ing partially overcome by plants urnlng to other products when the lobster season ends.

other varieties of fish and poultry were cited, and an ill- stance was given of chickens being brought from as far away as Saskatchewan for canning hcre. However, despite these ,altematlvc products it was doubted by speak- ers that the industry in this Prov ince was on a firm enough hast; to withstand even a moderate dc- presslon. It was felt by some speakers that, there might be too many canning factorics hcrc.

Lobster Season

of the second fishing would

The elimination season for lobster practically stop poaching, it was believed by spcakers: It would also have the effect of putting an estimated 10 per cent of the pres- ent. canneries out of business.

During the morning session Mr Walter J. Mclnnis, naval archi- tect: of Boston, said with rcfL-r- ence to the previous day's rcpo-t of the meeting that his rcmarks relative the economy of gasoline cngines wcrc intended to apply in boats which were not in cm.- tinuous use. I-'nr fishing vcss--is cngagcd fcr long seasons mi was the most economical though engines using it cost morc in in- stall. He added that there, were no moulded glass draggers in use as yet, though they might com.' in the future. There are SCVPFII small boats new uscrl by yachts- men as well as at. least. onn cs perlmental vesscl of the Unltcti States Coast Guard crmstrucict: by this process.
