The author of "The Bermuda Triangle" said yesterday the mysterious disappear- ance of hundreds of ships, planes and people in the area celebrated as the Devil's Triangle and the Hoodoo Sea should be explained a year and a half from now. He added that the explanation could well involve " an electro-magnetic complex built by the lost civilization of Atlantis still functioning on the bottom of the sea." Charles Berlitz, author of the bestseller, said a joint scientific study being under- taken, by the United States and Russia called Project Polymode, should solve the mystery of more than a hundred ships and planes and thousands of persons who ap- pear to have been swallowed by the sea since 1945. The study is scheduled to get under way next year and will be one of the most extensive ver done in the area which runs north from the Bermuda Islands to Miami and extends south from Puerto Rico, Ber- litz said. It is set to conclude in 1977 He explained that recent searches for oil in the area already have indicated the presence of "The super antediluvian civili- zation that we have come to call Atlantis." "There are unexplainable walls and cir- cular constructions, harbors and roads," Berlitz said. He believes the area may contain an electro-magnet built by the same advanced civilization which is re- sponsible for the disappearances. He also supports the theory that the identical civilization built the Great Py- ramid - "the Egyptians only Inherited it," he says. Began Research In 1945 Berlitz began his research of the Trian- gle in 1945, after five Navy torpedo bomb- ers disappeared on a training flight along with a flying boat sent out to se~rch for them. Vanishings since then have mcluded large cargo and passenger planes as well as a 425-Ioot freighter. Present indications are that a plane disappears every two weeks in the Trian- gle and small boats vanish at the rate of one a week, Berlitz said. He added that government coverup of the incidents has amounted to "a cosmic Watergate." . Interviewed yesterday before presentmg a lecture at the University of San Diego, Berlitz was asked if he thought the recent group of persons who disappeared on a reported UFO venture might have been swallowed in the Triangle. "There are no limits to the wild theories that will eventu- ally have scientific explanations," he said. "And science does not rule out extra or ex- terre tial."

ART ARENA Wood sculptures on view at USD

Each brings a personal style of creation and indi- vidual message, but to sin- gle out a few: Meyer shows toy-like wood carvings, painted and many polished, of reclining figures in miniature. He also is represented with a primitive Noah's Ark with little animals, a ruler in a tower overseeing his people and a sensitively carved figure of an old man hang- mg from a tree. There is skill in the simplicity of his subject matter and his car- vings. Goad, a blind wood- carver, shows both spiritual and humorous works. Con- centration is on depiction of rabbits and the crucifix. He depicts the basic, primitive form elimiting cluttering detail. Though simple in subject matter, these fig- ures are readily related to and gain strength in the crude simplicity. A b1blical, story-telling approach is taken by Pierce who activates figures in r0 lief in his wood carvings. Also on view are oil paint- ings on gourds and a wood- en stump, thread paintmgs and carvings of canes with snakes winding around them. A translation of the sym- bolism and conception be- .hind many of these primi- tive sculptures may require

By JAN JENNI 'GS TRIBUNE ArtWrUer An exhibition of wooden contemporary folk car- vings, pnmarily from the Appalachian area, is being presented in Founders Gal- lery at the University of San Diego. Entitled "American Pnmit1ve Sculpture," the exh1b1t was part of the inau- gural exhibition for the new .\tuseum of Craft and Folk Art in Los Angeles during the summ r. Part of the collect10n was exhibited last spnng a_t Rockefeller Plaza in ew York City. Accompanying the exhib- it is photographic documen- tation on Appalachian folk sculptors and their environ- ment by Joseph \1unson. Many of the wood carvers are from Kentucky. This exhibition offers a sometimes humorous. sometimes religious and sometimes decorative intro- duction to the American primitive sculpture. Much symbolism 1s involved. Among wood sculptors represented are John Meyer, Ernest Goad, Elijah Pierce, '.\1.ary Hall, Mary Borkowski and Ben Miller.

Trejo's works must be viewed closely to believe that he creates his decep- tive effects strictly with drawing, no other media. The meaning of many is mysterious, but this is an artist of such abundant tal- ent that it is likely that whatever he put together would involve, almost hyp- notize, the viewer in thought and m visual appre- ciation.
