Excavations
From Egypt
(Continued from Page 1)
water finally brought about their
downfall," Peterson said. "The
people wandered away to the valley
where water was plentiful.
How were these lost cities redis-
covered? "By the nineteenth cen-
tury constant irrigation had cut
off the supply of mud which the
floods regularly deposit in the val-
ley. So the farmers went looking
for fertilizer-black dirt in this
case," he said.
"They started digging in the
F'ayoum," Peterson explained, "and
began discovering antiquities. First
they threw them away. Then they
started to sell them.
"When the news of these dis-
coveries reached the late Prof.
Frances W. Kelsey, head of classi-
cal studies and museum founder,
he was delighted. Kelsey was in-
trested in Roman history and felt
the best way to study Rome was
through Egypt, a colony that sup-
ported the empire for years," he
said.
Objects Well Preserved
Exavations in the cities of
Karanis and Dimay began in 1923
and were completed in 1935. Pet-
erson, who served in Egypt from
1925 until the expedition's end,
has since his return worked on
sorting and classifying the many
objects found. Hundreds of the an-
tiquities are on display at the
museum.
"The exciting thing about work-
ing in Egypt," Peterson said, "is
that the dry climate of the coun-
try completely preserves almost
everything. The wooden doors and
windows from the cites which we
have in the museum are almost
completely preserved. Some of the
sheets could still be used today."
Wheat Doesn't Sprout
As to the popularly believed
story about ancient wheat sprout-
ing, Peterson says, "It is complete-
ly untrue. There is recent scienti-
fic proof to place the life span of
Egyptian wheat at about 30 years.
"But it is interesting to note
that some 1,500-year-old bread
is still edible. One of my friends
tried some a few years ago. Ex-
cept that it was rather dry and
gritty, he found it just as good as
modern-day bread," Peterson add-
ed with a laugh.
Local Candidates
To Speak at Rally
Democratic and Republican
candidates for state and federal
posts will give their respective
views at a political rally schedul-
ed for Oct. 28 at Masonic Temple.

Nov. 2. Eight candidates, four from
each party, will deliver five-min-
ute talks.

C. Reimann (State Senate), J.
Henry Owens (representative in

Legislature) and Aloysius P. Min-
ick (State Legislature).

Christman (State Senate), Incum-
bent George Meader (representa-
tive in Congress), Incumbent Jo-
seph E. Warner (State Legisla-
ture) , iandGeorge W. Sallade
(State Legislature).

ACLU Note Protests Firing
Of 26 Philadelphia Teachers

A report criticizing the dismis-
sal of 26 Philadelphia teachers in
connection with House Un-Am-
°rican Activities Committee hear-
ings thewe has been published by
;he American Civil Liberties Un-
ion.
Dismissals on the grounds of in-
competency followed a Board of
Public Education investigation of
Communist teachers in the school
system after the House hearings.
The ACLU group wrote to Fran-
cis B. Haas, Pennsylvania Super-
intendent of Public Instruction,
protesting the "denial of fair pro-
cedures" to any citizen.
Specifies Not Asked
Some teachers accused of refusal
to answer the superintendent
were never asked any specific
questions, the report points out.
Others offered to answer, but were
turned down on the grounds of ir-
relevancy.
Main conclusions of the ACLU
report were:
1. The technical charge of in-
competency was a convenient de-
vice to dismiss teachers against
whom no real evidence of disloy-
alty was produced.

2. All had satisfactory records.
There was no evidence that any
taught communism, slanted their
teaching or tried to convert stu-
dents or other teachers.
3. Pennsylvania law does not
provide for dismissal of teachers
because they refuse to answer
questions. The firings substitute
"government of men" for "govern-
ment of laws."
4. The teachers did not have fair
hearings and were in most cases
denied the chance to dispel doubts
),bout their loyalty,
5. Teachers should not be auto-
matically fired for invoking the
Fifth Amendment, without being
allowed to explain why they in-
voked it.
