There is a discussicn raging at presâ€" ent in regard to some pieces of Morse armor claimed to be found near Beardâ€" mcre, Ont. J. E.

Norss schclars agresd the weapons woere genuinely Viking and if it were established that they were found in Ontario, as claimed by J. E. Dodd, Port Arthur, histoery books would have to be altered to the effect Vikings came to Canada before Cclumbus discovered America, the directors said. Mr. Dodd said he found the relics at B:ardmore, in Northwestern Ontario, as far back as 1931. The claim was disputed at Winnipeg by Edward Raâ€" gotte who said he found onz of the pieces while cleaning the basement of LCcodd‘s Port Arthur home in 1928.
