NESTS OF SURF BIRD
SOUGHT ISO TEARS,
DEPARTMENT SAYS
OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT RE*
CEIVED OF RECENT DISCOV
ERY M’KINLEY PARK
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28. (£>)—'The
Department of the Interior announced
on October 4 the discovery, after a
search by ornithologists lasting 150
years, of the nesting place of the rare
surf bird, in Mount McKinley Nation
al park, Alaska. The announcement
in full text follows:
Ornithologists will be much inter
ested in the announcement made by
the Department of the Interior today
that the nesting place of the rare surf
bird has been located in Mount Mc
Kinley National park, Alaska, by Dr.
Joseph Dixon, economic mammalogist
of the University of California, and
George M. Wright, a forestry student
in the university.
University Aided Search
The expedition which resulted in
the discovery of the nest was spon
sored jointly by the University of
California and John E. Thayer, noted
collector, of Lancaster, Mass.
The surf bird is a small sea bird,
akin to the plover, which in its mi
gratory flights covers the Pacific coast
from Alaska to the Straits of Magel
lan in South America.
Until the discovery of a nest con
taining eggs, located among some
crags near Mount McKinley about
1,000 feet above timberline, no one
had ever seen a nest or an egg of this
bird.

Both Land and Sea Bird
The surf bird, in addition to the ex
treme mystery which has surrounded
its breeding-place, has a number of
other peculiarities, according to Mr.
Dixon. In summer it spends its time
in the restricted area around Mount
McKinley, 300 miles from salt water,
living like a typocal land bird. In
winter it lives on the wave-washed
rocks or reefs off the Pacific Coast,
a typical sea bird, eating barnacles
and other marine growths.
For almost one hundred and fifty
years ornithologists h*we been search
ing for the nesting place of this elu
sive bird, and Mr. Dixon has made
five trips to the frozen north in the
last 17 years in his efforts to locate
the nest.
CHIP GENE TUNNEY
“DIABOLICAL HOUND”
NEW YORK, Oct. 28. (JP)— “A
diabolical hound” was the epithet ap
plied to Gene Tunney by a Parisian
newspaper the morning after his vic
tory over Jack Dempsey.
The insult was not printed in a re
actionary or religious sheet opposed to
prize fighting but appeared in the
leading sports paper of France, “The
Auto.”
No. offense was meant. The French
reporter struggling with the dis
patches from Philadelphia, all writ
ten in English, had merely translated
the Marines’ fond appelation of “Devil
Dog” as applied to the new champion
of the world, as “un chien diaboligue.”
