| Summary: | Glacier Priest Locates Crater. GLACIER PRIEST LOCATES CRATER FALSE PASS, Alaska, July 30. (/P) —Discovery of a new inactive crater even larger than the famous Aniakchak near the tip of the Alaska peninsula was reported today by Father Bernard R. Hubbard, the glacier priest, after a month of hardships and adventure. Unprecedented floods, encounters with giant Pavlof Brown Bears, separation and near disaster befell the expedition in the unexploded region between Pavlof volcano and the tip of the Alaska peninsula. ''The most important discovery." Father Hubbard said, "was a huge blown out and greatly altered crater, another crater of the moon. The Aghi- leen pinnacles and other nearby mountains being merely radial ridges to the hole in the-earth which I estimate is much larger than Aniakchak volcano in the center of the Alaskan peninsula.
