Flood Washes Up Skull Os Neanderthal Woman MARBURG, Germany, Aug. 23 (JP). —A German anthropolo gist today announced the discovery of a well-preserved skull of a Neanderthal woman who lived more than 120,000 years ago. The skull was found by a rural schoolteacher 100 years after the skull of the original Neanderthal man was discovered in 1856 in a German limestone cave. Washed up by recent floods in the Hessian village of Rhuenda, it was taken to Prof. Eduard Jacobshagen. anthropologist of Marburg University. “It is a sensational scientific discovery,” Prof. Jacobshagen said in an interview. “And the ; skull is better preserved than the Neanderthal skull itself.” Prof. Jacobshagen said the skull is that of a woman 35 to 40 years old at the time of her death. He fixed the age of the skull at more than 120.000 years because in the layer of sinter covering it he found a fossilized snail of the last interglacial period. The Neanderthal man’s skull was found a century ago this month in a limestone cave 60 feet underground in the Neander i valley, about 10 miles from Dues seldorf. Employment In D. C. Area Still Rising The addition of 700 members to the working population in: July raised the employment total i last month for Washington and nearby suburban areas to a post-1 World War II peak of 646,300! persons. The upward trend continues the steady increase which began in 1955. Ordinarily, midsummer em ployment drops in wholesale, re tail and service establishments. | But increased hiring by the Fed eral Government starting its 'fiscal year boosted the total working force. The July figure was 1.8 per ! cent greater than the employ ;ment total for July, 1955. This ! increase represents in part the ! decline in employment last year idue to the summer transit strike. The skull of a second man of the Neanderthal race, believed now to be an extinct side branch of the human family, was discov ered in World War I at Ehrings dorf, near Weimar, now Com munist East Germany. The Rhuenda skull was turned in by a 40-year-old country, teacher, Eitel Glatzer, July 20. j Rains had turned the small Rhu enda creek into a raging stream which washed away soil and laid it bare in a layer of gravel. Digging at the scene of the And thus far has failed to bring up more bones. Director Horst Sielhoff of the Dusseldorf Museaum said it is be lieved Neanderthal men disap peared from the earth some 50,- 000 years ago. They existed from 50,000 to 100,000 years before that.

Singer Reported Teacher in East Berlin BERLIN, Aug. 23 OP).—A Com munist newspaper announced today that Aubrey Pankey, an American Negro concert, singer, has taken a music teaching job in Communist East Berlin. East Berlin’s Berliner Zeitung said Pankey chose to live under communism after he was refused permission to live in France and Britain.

Education and Welfare to revise the labeling of products containing the tranquilinzing drug reserpine, in accord ance with new findings about the potential dangers of its use. Dr. Ralph G. Smith, chief of the new drug branch of the Bu reau of Medicine, noted in a letter that many firms market- ing this drug already have vol untarily reduced the recom mended dosage printed on la bels and have added warning statements in literature to physicians. However, he added, many of the preparations that have been marketed for a long time do not have labels reflecting the new findings. For General Practitioners The warnings to be printed on the labels are intended pri marily for the general practi tioner, who more and more has been using certain reserpine preparations to aid patients with mental disturbances not serious enough • to warrant psychiatric treatment. Dr. Smith said papers and exhibits presented at the meet ing of the American Medical Association in Chicago last June 11 to 15 emphasized the poten tial hazards of reserpine in quan tities above the new recom mended dosages. The drugs, along with chlor promzaine, was introduced into use in this country over two years ago and achieved wide acclaim for the wonders caused in mental institutions in the treatment of disturbed and vio lentHjatients. Cites Dosages Dr. Smith pointed out that, In the treatment of hypertension or of anxiety states on an out patient basis, it is now agreed the usual maintenance dose should be 0.25 mg. daily. Doses of reserpine up to 1.0 mg. daily may safely be used for the be ginning of treatment but not for more than one week, the let ter added. Rather than increase the dose of reserpine, he declared, it is better to use another hypotensive agent.

Dr. Smith pointed out, with doses of 0.32 mg. daily, whereas the new recommended dosage does not. He wrote that daily doses of 0.5 or 1.0 mg. produces “severe depression in a significant num ber of individuals and has pre cipitated a very considerable number of suicidal attempts, some of them successful.” Physicians, many of whom use the tranquilizing drugs for patients themselves without con sulting psychiatrists, were warned that daily doses of reserpine above 0.25 mg. also may be dan gerous to persons with histories of poetic ulcer or ulcerative colitis.
