PREHISTORIC BIRD
IS FOUND IN KANSAS
THIS BIRD HAD TEETH BUT NO
WINGS AND WAS FIVE FEET
IN LENGTH.

Lawrence, Kan-(By A. P)-One of
the two specimens in the world OF
birds teeth was found in the chalk
beds of western Kansas and has been
preserved at the University of Kansas
museum, according to Prof H. =.
Martin, curator at the museum, who
found the specimen The other speci-
men is at the Yale University museum,
The Kansas fossil is of the Cretaceous
period about 25 million years ago.
Ten teeth are included with the fossil
This is the second oldest known
type of bird life, according to Profess
sor Martin It is the most complete
specimen that has been preserved.
The bird was of the Hesperornis
family It was five feet long, had
short yertebrae tail and possessed no
wings. 1t was marine bird and re-
sembled the modern penguin.
"The earliest specimen Of bird that
has been discovered had teeth" says
Professor Martin "This earliest type
lived in the Jurassic periOr, some 80
million years ago, and specimens have
been found in the lithographic lime
stone beds of Germany. This type of
bird was about the size Of a crow and
had sharp, pointed teeth and a verte-
brae tail longer than the body, like
the Dinosaur."
The specimen preserved at the Uni
versity of Kansas is more valuablel
than any other, according to Profess
sor Martin, because it gives clear
idea of the i-plumaceous featheryi
covering which the bird possessed. No
other known specimen gives this evi-
dence.

bilities as a distance runner were
well-known to close followers of dis
tance running who have seen him per-
form during the past two years. He
had one fault which prevented him
from coming to the front much more
quickly, his early pace was far too
slow. But now that he has learned to
go out and follow a faster pace and
with the help of more competition,
Buker seems to be capable of far
better two-mile performance than he
showed at the Penn Relays.
