* Dead Sea Scrolls a hoax?

Page 19 has half a column taken up with a report headed: "Bible Scroll 'Find' Suspected As Hoax" "Dr. Zeitlin of Dropsie College Splits With Other Scholars on Dead Sea Discovery". This is a report on the recently-found Dead Sea Scrolls and curious that this report focuses on a scholar who believes them to be a hoax, ending with: "...It seems that the entire find is not an important discovery, but possibly a hoax." (see images).

Complete in 42 pages, very nice condition.
