Liz Taylor and mother Join Conrad Hilton, Ship Floats' in Rockies On Sea of Ovn Making FAIRPLAY, COLO. - Eleven thousand feet up in the Rockies near here, a 2,000-to- n ship is in a "sea" of her own floating creation. The vessel Is a steel dredge and her skipper is a gold miner. The ship is moving slowly across a flat glacial basin by digging out the earth ahead and filling in the lake behind. Every cubic yard of earth scooped up is screened and panned for gold through sluices inside the dredge. Working around the clock, the dredge weekly eats away three-fifth- s of an acre of gold bearing earth to a depth of .70 feet, for a total of some 100,000 cubic yards. And some weeks it takes In enough to clear expenses. To operate its 800 h.p. genera- tor, the dredge uses over 500,-00- 0 kilowatt hours of electricity every month. This Is enough to meet the domestic requirements of the near-b- y metropolis of Denver for nearly two weeks. Many 'Old' Violins Thought Valuable Prove Disappointing MILWAUKEE, WIS. -- Plenty' of hopes for easy money are dashed In the history headquarters of the public museum. By phone and In person Milwau- keeans call the staff to get estimates on the value of their violins, Indian head pennies, manuscripts and spinning wheels. Not many leave the office prospective millionaires, staff members say. Too many times the articles, turned up in attics or In other remote comers of the house, are neither rare nor in demand. Most have a price but usually It is a low one. Take Stradivarius violins. Inquiries about them usually turn up in numbers following' publicity about valuable newly found fiddles, according to John M. Douglas, assistant in the history department. "A person who has a violin in his attic remembers it has an old wooden case, cracked and aged looking and that it belonged to his grandfather, Douglas said. "That automatically makes it very valuable It comes as a shock to him to learn its only worth $20 or $25." - The majority of owners are convinced when staff members tell them they have copies but someo out thinking they still have the real thing, he declared. Frequent Inquiries also are made about old Bibles, said Eldon jG. Wolff, acting "'curator of history. Usually the book has no value as an antique, he said. "In early America, families moved around a great deal," he explained. "If they saved anything at all, it was the family Bible. As a result theyre very common. In fact, .they are the most common of all books." Few of the numerous Indian head pennies that reach the office have any cash-i- n .value, Wolff said. "Folks have an exaggerated idea of the value of antiquity, be explained. "They get to talking and one tells another: This thing must be worth a lot of money The a in thought grows and, almost themdream world, they convince selves that this article must be very valuable. . iMtawWI Jr. cause you life em so Operatic Star 0 Toasted fresh and sweet for folks eat Kelloggs Corn Flakes fast as we make em!
