Harry Potter and the lost desert grave of a teenage British hero For 65 years the family of heroic boy soldier Private Harry Potter had tried des- perately to find his final resting place. All they knew about the 16-year-old who had lied about his age and marched off ready to fight for his country in 1937 was that he had been killed and buried somewhere in Palestine. But now his grave has been rediscovered by devotees of an entirely different Harry Potter - the boy wizard from J. K. Rowling’s world-famous books. And Pte Potter’s grave has been transformed into a shrine for J.K. Rowling enthusiasts from all over the world. So many flowers and messages have been left there that the inscription detailing the fate of the real Harry Potter - killed in action at Hebron, Israel on July 22, 1939, aged 19 - has almost become obscured. The headstone was first noticed by local admirers of J. K. Rowling’s creation and word quickly spread in Israel, where the books and films have becom: mensely popular. The news about Potter's grave was soon picked up by the local paper and, back in England, attracted the attention of the soldier's nephew, Alan Hinton, 54, who had been carrying out Internet searches for information about his uncle. Now the local mayor has invited Pte Potter’s family to visit so they can finally pay their last respects. The family is pleased the story of Pte Potter's life is at- tracting so much attention, even if the interest was sparked by a simple coinci- dence of names. Pte Potter was actually just 18 when he died, having lied about his birthday ‘to join the Army at the age of 16 in January 1937. After a few weeks’ training with the 1* Battalion, the Worcestershire Regiment, he was assigned to its Mo- tor Transport division and sent to Palestine, where a rebellion had broken out against the British mandate. Ten months later he is believed to have been shot by a sniper, although his parents were never told the exact circumstances of his death. Attempts were made to dissuade Harry from joining up, but the high- spirited teenager had a good practical reason for wanting to leave home: with three sisters and four younger brothers, the family’s three-bedroom house was uncomfortably overcrowded. His sister, now 82, said: “Harry wanted to see a bit more of the world. He'd left schoo! at 14 and worked for six months fixing roller skates, but then joined the carpet factory to bring in a bit more money.” * Private)Pte=kazlegény2a Pte Potter’s body lies in 2 Commonwealth war cemetery near Tel Aviv, the capital city of Israel, He was buried with 6,000 other war dead and of- ficials had until now been unable to pinpoint the location of his grave for the family The family has another reason to be glad that the grave has been found. Now Pte Potter can be remembered properly. They were disappointed when they asked for his name to be engraved on the war memorial in his home town and their request was rejected because the soldier had died five weeks before the outbreak of the Second World War. 4.

Lazy Finns developed the first ice skate 5,000 years ago to save energy Archaeologists have been puzzled about why people started skating for a long time. Now, new research has offered an answer. “in central and northern Europe 5,000 years ago people struggled to survive the severe winter conditions and it seems unlikely that ice skating developed as a hobby,” said one of the researchers. “As happened later with skis and bicycles, lam convinced that people first made ice skates to limit the energy required for their daily journeys.” The scientists put their theory to the test and made replica skates modelled on examples held at museums. Volunteers on ice rinks in the Alps had their heart rates, oxygen intake and skating speeds measured while they tried out the primitive skates. From these data, researchers were able to calculate energy consumption and the efficiency of their skating. They discovered that being able to skate over the frozen lakes in ancient Finland saved 10 per cent of people's energy.
