. . .”Photos”part of this great institution's history,"said Maura Mulvihill, senior vice presi-dent of National Geographic's imageand video archives.

"We think of ourselves as the unsungfathers of modern photojournalism,"she added. "I don't think people areaware of what a massive instructivearchive this is."

Proceeds from the Dec. 6 auction, justweeks before National Geographic's125th anniversary, will go for the pro-motion and preservation of the archiveand "the nurturing of young photogra-phers, artists and explorers ... who arethe future of the organization," Mulvihillsaid.

National Geographic sponsors andfunds scientific research and explo-ration through its official journal, Na-tional Geographic Magazine, whichreaches 8.8 million people worldwide in36 countries and in 27 languages. Thesociety reaches millions more throughits National Geographic Channel, books

and other sources. While National Ge-ographic is known today for its photog-raphy, early magazines were filled withartwork.

Among the fine art being offered is anoil painting by Tom Lovell of Gen.Robert E. Lee's Civil War surrender atAppomattox. It's expected to fetch$20,000 to $30,000.

Bob Knight selling rings, medal at auctionNEW YORK — Hall of Famer BobKnight is selling his championship bas-ketball rings and Olympic gold medalfor what he considers a very good rea-son: the education of his grandchildren.A collection of the former coach's mem-orabilia will be auctioned by SteinerSports Memorabilia. It's part of a salethat features the jersey Yankees pitcherDon Larsen wore while pitching a per-fect game in the World Series.

"John Havlicek and I were just talkingone day about all the stuff we had ac-cumulated over the years," Knight saidMonday from the Denver airport, refer-ring to his college teammate at OhioState who went on to a Hall of Famecareer with the Boston Celtics. "As wetalked we decided the money couldbevery useful to put our grandchildren

through college."

The auction, which has already startedfor some items, runs through Dec. 5and will feature Knight's rings from histhree NCAA championship teams at In-diana — the undefeated 1976 seasonand the ones from 1981 and 1987.

The company will also sell a sports coatand a warmup jacket given to Knight ascoach of the gold medal-winning U.S.Olympic team in 1984.

"I've got stuff I didn't even know I had,"Knight said. "I don't put anything up inthe house. If you came into the houseyou would think I was a mailman. And Idon't even wear rings."

Knight is aware of the enthusiasm of

the memorabilia market.

"Sports people are nuts," Knight saidwith a laugh. "Look at how much theywould they pay for Babe Ruth's cap orHonus Wagner's card? I guess theseare people who want to own things,things that are the results of whatsomeone else did in sports. I was verypleased there was a market for some-thing like this that my grandkids — Ihave two grandsons — and my wifehas a niece and nephew, who wouldget good use out of this."

Knight, who set a Division I record —which has since been surpassed —with 902 wins at Army, Indiana andTexas Tech, was asked if there wasanything that wouldn't make it to theauction floor.

"I have some things Ted Williams gaveme," Knight said of the baseball Hall ofFamer. "He was very special to me, soI will never part with those things."

Moon rocks, chunks of Mars auctioned in New York

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Meteoritesfrom Mars and the biggest piece of theMoon ever offered for sale went on theblock on Sunday in New York in whatorganizers billed as history's largestmeteorite auction, which brought inover $1 million.

More than 125 meteorites were offeredin the private sale. The most expensiveitems on offer were four pounds (1.8 kg)of Moon rock that were once embeddedon the dark side of the Moon before anasteroid sent them hurling into space.They sold for $330,000 after the auc-tion's end.

The most hotly contested lot was a sliceof the Seymchan meteorite, pieces ofwhich were found in Siberia in the1960s. The 9-inch-tall (23-cm-tall) slice,embedded with olivine crystals, wentfor $43,750, about 12 times its esti-mated sale price.

Items that failed to sell included a largefragment of the Tissint meteorite ofMartian origin that fell in Morocco lastyear, and an iron meteorite resemblinga howling face that was found in theKalahari Desert in southern Africa. It

was valued at $175,000 to $225,000.

Meteorites are priced for their size, rar-ity, beauty and provenance. Someitems sold for as little as a few hundreddollars.

Buyers are typically willing to pay morefor bits of rock or iron known to haveoriginated on the Moon or Mars. Lunarmeteorites are particularly rare, he said,with only about 135 pounds (61.2 kg) ofthe rock known to exist on Earth.

"It is the oldest material mankind cantouch, the raw ingredients of the plan-ets," Pitt said in describing the appealof collecting meteorites.

A piece of the so-called Peekskill mete-orite, which was caught on camera 20years ago burning through the sky be-fore smacking into a Chevy Malibu inNew York, sold for $16,250.

One buyer paid $1,375 for a piece ofstone involved in the only documentedfatality caused by a meteorite when itcrashed down in 1972.

"It was a cow," auctioneer Ed Beardsleysaid. "It was pulverized. It was quick."

Smashed Nirvana bass up for auction The remnants of a smashed bass gui-tar from Nirvana's Smells Like TeenSpirit video are to be sold for up to$32,000 next month.

It will be sold by Christie's in London onNovember 29 at an entertainmentmemorabilia auction which also in-cludes Indiana Jones's whip and theHoly Grail used in the Last Crusadefilm. Bob Dylan's high school yearbookwith a personal message written by himwill also be among the lots.

The band's Krist Novoselic's bass isseen being trashed by his Nirvanabandmate, late frontman Kurt Cobain,in the celebrated promo for the Seattletrio's first hit.

Novoselic bought the Zen-On bassfrom a pawn shop prior to the 1991video shoot knowing he would bash itto pieces during filming.

The body of the guitar was salvaged byone of the teenage extras in the film,which saw the the band play in front ofan audience in a dark moody studioflanked by black-clad cheerleaders.

Christie's estimates the guitar will sellfor $19,000 to $32,000.

Indy's whip, originally donated by film-maker Steven Spielberg for a 2001charity auction, is expected to fetch upto $19,000, while the Grail is estimatedto go for up to $4,500.
