Manila, Sept. 24 (INS) Archeologists from University of California
have discovered in earth fault of recent quake a sphere two feet in
diameter of an unidentifiable material.
Dr. Karl Schwartz, head of the group, said the sphere was returned
to the University for study. He declined to answer questions on the
cultural origin of the sphere.
"There wasn't any more in the newspapers about it," he said. "I have a
friend in California who got me the photographs."
_He looked at me intently. "You won't believe any of this." He pressed
the coin into the palm of his hand. "You won't be able to."_
"The photographs," he continued, as if lecturing, "were of characters
projected by the sphere when placed before a focused light. The sphere
was transparent, you see, imbedded with dark microscopic specks. By
moving the sphere a certain distance each time, there was a total
projection of three hundred and sixty different characters in eighteen
different orderings. Or nineteen different orderings if you count one
which was a list of all the characters."
