Page 4 THE BATTALION WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1976 North American ‘Pompeii’ discovered Associated Press OZETTE, Wash. — Imagine that one night your neighborhood Sud denly was buried under a torrent of mud. The centuries pass. Other houses and buildings in your town that sur vived the mudslide have vanished. Your descendants have forgotten how you lived. Three hundred years later, ar cheologists unearth the houses in your neighborhood — and find a Pompeii. A mixing bowl, a screw driver, the TV, in fact everything in your house the night of the mudslide has been preserved under layers Of sticky blue clay. Archeologists figure the slide must have hit in the spring or sum mer. Green tree leaves are sealed in PLAY BACKGAMMON AT ACHARIA5 greenhouse and game parlor 1201 HWy. 30 (The Brlanvood Apts.)

Your descendants are esctatic. Suddenly they have a window on their past. They plan a museum — and even go to court to win certain rights that were yours, using your household belongings as evidence. Far-fetched? It has happened this way at Odette, a Makah Indian village where four cedar-planked long- houses were buried — and pre served — by a mudslide that rolled down a bluff more than 300 years ago. Ozette has been hailed as “North America’s Pompeii,” "a time cap sule,” “an archeologist’s dream.” It is helping the Makah descendants of that village reconstruct their history, and establish their ancient right to fish off the Washington coast. Located on the Pacific Ocean near the rugged, forest-hemmed tip of the Olympic Peninsula, about 150 miles west of Seattle, the houses are being excavated under the direction of Dr. Richard D. Daugherty, pro fessor of anthropology at Washing ton State University. Daugherty, in his early 40s, and a team of colleagues and archeology students have been there since 1970. They expect to continue five more years. The wet muck, 8 to 12 feet deep, sealed off air, preserving almost ev erything except flesh, animal skin, and feathers. There is no estimate yet of the number of people buried. The slide may have been triggered by an earthquake, Daugherty says. The team has recovered and catalogued almost 40,000 artifacts — conical rain hats woven of spruce roots, baskets, wooden bowls for the WANT AD RATES One day 10c per word Minimum charge —• $1.00 Classified Display $1.65 per column inch each insertion ALL classified ads must be pre-paid.

The Ozette dig has shown that the Makah were a rich and well-fed people with time for art — unlike their descendants today, a tribe of 1,000 that just manages to make a living from fishing. The ancient Makah were seal and whale hunters, occasional slave owners, weavers of baskets, makers of exquisitely carved boxes, spinners of blanket yarn from dog hair. A striking item is a whale fin carved of red cedar and inlaid with 700 sea otter teeth.

On a recent day the incumbent Bond, Roger Moore, was battling a beefy Britisher who wrestles under the name of The Mighty Chang. The scene was on a parapet overlooking an 1100-year-old Mosque. To the de light of hundreds of Egyptians, Bond fell four stories into a cushion of cardboard cartons. WANTED Full time or part time help. Retail experience desired.

They’ve got companies shooting underwater stuff in the Bahamas and a ski chase in the Baffin islands. “From Cairo we go on to Luxor and Karnak, then return to London to film in the biggest movie stage ever built. “Will I do more Bonds?

Texas A&M University By SHEPHERD GRINNAN Remember the agony of high school and the cruelties of social and peer group pressure? “Carrie,” di rected by Brian DePalma, is the story of this high school cruelty car ried to the extreme. Similar to DePalma’s recent re lease “Obsession,” “Carrie” is across between the supernatural and the natural. In “Obsession,” the super natural is depicted by the appear ance of the exact double of a long dead wife. In “Carrie the super natural is illustrated by Carrie’s abil ity to mentally move objects through space (psychokinetics). Carrie (Sissy Spacek) is the loser of Bates High School. She is with drawn, helpless, and completely without confidence; she is tor mented constantly. Most of her problems stem from the fact that she doesn’t know how to get along with people and she stays completely withdrawn from them. She is some one to feel sorry for. Yet, she is a pretty, unassuming girl. Her mother (Piper Laurie), Movie Review however, has never let her make friends or date because “it would be sinful. ” On the other hand, her classmates are selfish, arrogant, and without pity in their relentless attack on Car rie. She is their scapegoat and they’re merciless. It is clearly a case of good (Carrie) against evil (her classmates and teachers). In this case, good has a little extra; good has “the power” and, unfortunately for her classmates, she can “get then | she wants and she eventuallyJ«i “Carrie” is a very disturla movie. It presents high schooli high school society at its worst 1 is from the viewpoint of a rejedft| supposedly helpless, girlwhoistii victim of immature youths ne< aware of their social power. Theyi without pity or feelings forotk they lead her to believe she i cepted and finally crush all herb of acceptance. It makes your skin crawl. Ultimately, “Carrie”isthestor rejection. Rejection first by then by parents, and then 1 self. It is not a pretty picture, noift it meant to be. DePalma’s “Carrie" is a mon' lesson. It says “This is whatitfe! like to be rejected and it hurts loo bly.” SERVICES TODAY’S CROSSWORD PUZZLE Waitresses needed. Apply in person.
