That's happening hare at. tlie University of the South, whose campus sprawls along the top of Cumberland plateau, 2,000 fest, a- bove sol. level. Its faculty and student body include some of the {post avid “cave dogs" in the coun- ry. Groups of six or more, usually headed by a professor can be seen on a fair day toward the end of tho week trooplng down the pre- cipitous mountainside to search out a new cave or an old one they think holds some new discovery. There are scores of limestone caves hereabouts, some of them ex- tensive. Ail are far enough off the beaten track to hold plenty of in- terest for veteran speliogolists, as scientific cave-searchers are cali- ezl. Ons of the most confirmed cave- dogs on this campus is Dr. Henry '1'. Kirby-Smith, surgeon at the university hospital. He ll the un- official “spotter” of new caves and "My now and then lie learns ‘oi anot er one from patients who come in o the clinic from the hills and coves for miles about. When he learns of a new cave Dr. Kirby-Smith plans a trip to see how good it is. He has logged visits to between 60 and 70 caves. “Good" Cares A “good" cave, says the physic- ian, has one or more of the fol- lowing characteristics, in varying degree: it is isolated and known to few people-never by totirlsts. 1t is at least a haifmlle deep. It is tortuonsly narrow in places and has "crawls" —places where the root is not more than two feet high. There are some "really good" cmes which have places which can he reached only by swimmiu’: through water pools in the rlafk cavem. lighted only by the car- bide lights the cave-searchers car- ry. Some have majestic chambers which can he reached only by swimming under water. Get a cave of that sort and only the professionals are interested. but there arc a good many of those iicre at Sewance. 0t course, an ordinary cave can qualify as a good one if it harbors unusual biological specimens, such as cave salamanders. or interesting paleontological deposits, like the skeleton iof a tiger-like cat which roamed these parts during the ice age. The discoveries which have created most excitement in scicn- tific circles_ both here and else- where. were the finding h_v Dr. Edward Mt-Cracli". head of the liiolow department, of cave sala- manders. very rare animals indeed. A forthcoming issue of the sci- entitle journill "Copeia" will record his discovery of the sixth species of cave salamander yet to‘ he catn- logued, the gyrinophiltis palleucus. About 20 specimens have been found since the first was picked up iii i944. McCrady has others un- der study ivhivh may become the seventh and eighth species.

Scarlet And Gold For Royal Wedding ' By Norman Cribbena Canadian Prms staff Writer LONDON, Nov. i0 —(CP) -— The controversy over the wearing a.’ full-dress uniform or drab khaki by troops at the wedding of Prin- cess Elizabeth Nov. 20 is due to be aired in Parliament tomorrow hut newspaper reports have it that the Household Cavalry detachment at Buckingham Palace will don their scarlet and gold full-dress for the occasion. Despite reports to this effect in a number of newspspu-a durllll the week-end, Buckingham Palace and the War Office remained lion- committal. "We have heard of no change in the original plan which was that khaki battle dress would be wom," a palace official said. "Full- dress may be very desirable from the viewpoint of the public but tize War Office must decide wheth- cr it. is practicable." The War Office said no decis- ion has yet been taken since the matter is being raised in Parlia- ment tomorrow. The announcement early last‘ month that the Household Cavalry would not wear full-dress raised a storm of protest in London WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBEDRTZ.’ 1M1 First Aid Post Mrs. Fred Osborne, Central ROY- aity, Volunteer First Alder.

This business isn‘t_ just a matter oi getting out the full-dress ni- torm and putting it. on. Expcrts note that the dress is costly to maintain: the uniforms would have to be fitted to new wearers: the soldiers themselves. accustomed only to khaki, would have to learn iiow to near fill-dress correctly. i§?-~~ PLEAs “TZIGH BABY BUT DON'T MAIL HIM CAPETOWN.
