I put “the machine back into gear and finished cutting off the rest of the wrist.” Tarr ran to a nearby church where a secretary ap- plied a tourniquet and drove him to the Russell Medical Centre in Leeds. A doctor at the centre went back to the accident site and retrieved the hand. Doctors said they will not know how much use Tarr will have of the hand until nerves regenerate over the next few months, wounds in his chest and leg, a hospital spokesman said.

Explorers out of gas By ROBERT GLASS LONDON (AP) — Two British explorers literally ran out of gas near the top of the world Saturday after picka- xing a path for their snow- mobiles thorugh the Arctic wasteland in hopes of be- coming the first to cross the globe via. both poles. Anthony Preston, spokes- man for the Transglobe ex- pedition headquarters in London, said more gasoline was being flown to Sir Ran- ulph Fiennes and Charles Burton, who were expected to reach the North Pole late Saturday, more than 10 hours behind schedule. Fiennes and Burton set out on the last leg to the pole in cumnavigations have been around the equator. Fiennes, 38, a former mem- ber of Britain's Special Air Service commando unit, ‘said he undertook: the journey “for England and to prove that adventure is not dead.” The day before he and his 89-year-old associate set off from Greenwich, England, on sept. 2, 1979, the New York Times. said in an editorial they were beginning “a jour- ney of such daring that it makes one wonder how the sun ever set on empire.” Backed by contributions from more than 1,000 com- panies worldwide, Fiennes and Burton travelled by sea, land and ice across Africa, Australi: the early biles, stopping only to axe a path across the ice. They were only about 18 kilom-° etres from the pole when they ran out of fuel, Preston said. Once they reach the pole, the explorers — with. Fie- . nnes',, pet térrior, Bothy, at their side — planned a cham- pagne celebration at the des- olate milestone in their 83,700-kilometre journey. . NTURE Although several expedi- tions have reached either the North or South Poles, no one “had previously crossed both Pacific Coast of North Amer- ica, Alaska and northern Canada. They reached the South Pole on Dec. 15, 1980, and crossed Antarctica in 66 days. From there, they boarded. their support. ship Benjamin Bowring and headed up the other side of the world. Cyanide On Feb. 12, they embarked from northern Canada on the most hazardous part of: the journey, to the North Pole. The explorers were being supplied by a De -Havilland Chubb Twin Otter plane — equipped with skis — and flown by veteran Arctic pilot Karl Zberg, a Swiss-Cana- dian. In addition to food, the backtp team also brought in spare vehicles as needed. But Preston said, “Nothing. takes away from the absolute misery of the weather.” He said the severe cold causes sweat to freeze and pieces of skin and beard to lift off when they remove their protective cloth masks, Havirig reached the pole, they still must cross hazar- dous ice that could unex- pectedly melt into floes as they make their way back 965 kilometres to edge of the Arctic Circle.

New study a hoax? By GEORGE CORNELL AP Religion Writer A Duke University psy- chiatrist says he has found “striking evidence” linking the Shroud of Turin to the time of Christ, but an arche- ologist says the new study is a hoax and a disservice to both science and religious faith. An image on the shroud, kept for centuries by the Ro- man Catholic Church in Turin, Italy, is believed to show a crucified man, which some believe to be Christ. Alan Whanger, the psy- chiatrist, reported that he determined a dark spot over one of the eyes in the image was made by a coin issued by Pontius Pilate, the Roman who Chri be- The 40 researchers asked for permission to . perform dating tests, which would destroy a small fragment.

But the researchers, using various tests, con- cluded that the shroud was not a forgery, nor the work of human contrivance. i d light to confirm the coin image shows Greek lettering for “Tiberius Caesar" and an astrologer's aygur, a curved staff that he says was a symbol used only on coins issued under Pilate. Whanger says there also was one mistaken letter in the spelling on the coin — the same misspelling that occurs on other coins issued under Pilate. This similarity pre- viously was reported by a Loyola University professor, Rev. Francis Filas. With the aid of computer- enhancement methods, Whanger said he has de- termined 74 points of con- gruence between the image and Pilate’s coin issued in AD 29. Only 14 points of con- gruence are deemed legally sufficient, them with fresh water in the meantime. Hope RCMP were warning all traffic entering the area of the spill.

A pickup truck left a gravel section of the winding, hilly road at about 9 p.m., and went over a 15-metre em- bankment into the lake. The driver, Rick Shama, 21, of Richmond, swam to shore. — RCMP found the body of his 17-year-old female pas- senger Saturday morning. She has been identified as Rozzalyn Alleyne, also of Richmond. Just a few minutes after the first crash, a camper van went off a paved part of the road and over a 90-metre cliff. Raymond Ernest Good- rum, 22, of Burnaby, was killed. In hospital are Robert Murray Wallace, also 22, of North Vancouver, and Rob- ert Fryer of Vancouver.
