DESERT NATIVES THOUGHT TO HAVE UNKNOWN TRAIT

Alice Springs, Aug. 27.

A four-nation scientifle expedition to Central Australia has returned to Alice Springs, convinced that primitive aboriginals have an inherent hardiness to withstand cold which is unknown among other people of the world.

The leader of the expedition, Professor P. S. Scho- lander, of Oslo University, said tonight: "We froze, we shivered, we thrashed around trying to keep warm but it was impossible. Alongside us, aboriginal meni snored their heads off apparently snug and warm,

To Establish Why

The expedition, which includes American, Cana- djan, Norwegian and Australian scientists, has spent four weeks with the Pitjentjara, tribe at Areyonga, 100 miles west of Alice Springs. It set out to establish why the desert natives do not suffer from intense cold.

Scholander said they experienced temperatures down to freezing point. All members of the party had acted as guinea pigs by sleeping in the open with only one blanket as the natives do. "It was frightful," he said. "While we suffered, the young tribesmen snored."-France-Presse.
