| Summary: | Glacier Starts Travels Again. GLACIER STARTS TRAVELS AGAIN FAIRBANKS, Alaska, March 25. (/P)—Black Rapids glacier, reborn and on the loose, crawled down its ancient moraine 10 to 15 feet today, plowing up the earth before it like a giant steam shovel toward the only connecting interior highway a little more than a mile away. Mrs. H. E. Revell, whose roadhouse-home on the highway is directly in the path of the capering glacier 125 miles south of Fairbanks, said she sometimes could see the glacier's forward movement. Mrs. Revell, who with her husband and son is packed and ready for instant flight should the glacier overrun the highway, said she was keeping tab on the movement by markers in the glacier's path. The glacier is 25 to 30 miles long, 300 feet high at its face, estimated to be 3000 feet high in the center. In February it moved more than a half-mile.
