Prof. Dorf Tells of Fossils
Prof. Erling Dorf, of Princeton,
addressed the group about the fos-
sils and their relationship to geo
logy and science. He said:
To many people the terms geo
logist' and 'fossil-hunter' are syn
anymons. While this is by no
means necessarily so, it is certainly
true that the fossil hunter and his
various types of fossils are indis-
pensable to the science of geology.
The term fossil includes any
evidence in the rocks of the exis-
tence of plants or animals in the
past. Plants are ordinarily dis
tlngulshed from animals by the
lack of ability to move and by the
presence of green pigment, chlor-
ophyll, in their vegetation tissues.
Ihe animal kingdom is further
divided into 'vertebrates' or an
lmals with a well-defined back
bone, and invertebrates or ami
mails without backbone. The in
vertebrates include the various
forms of shelled animals which
abound IN marine waters over the
surface of the earth. As the
forms die their shells become bur-
led in the mud or sand of the ocean
bottom and under prepore eondi-
lions become preserved as fossils.
Because of the widespread occur
enee of ancient marine deposits of
mud or sand over the present land
surface of the earth, the biologists
has come to utilize the numerous
lnventebrate fossils contained in
such deposits as the key to geolo-
gle chronology. Geologic chron-
ology, or the proper dating of sue
cesslve beds of rock, is indispens-
able to the proper Working out of
geologic sequences, and is also
highly essential in geologic map
ping and in tracing the structural
history of any region. In the work
whilh has BEEN done this summer
IN the region surrounding Red
Lodge the collections of inverte-
brate fossils which have been OBJ
tanned from many localities have
helped us correlate the rocks of
this region with those of more
distant points throughout the
country.
Fossil plants, including petri-
fled trunks, stems and cones, and
impressions of leaves, branches.
seeds, and flowers are by no means
as abundant in the geologic record
as invertebrates. This is due part
~ to the less resistant nature of
plant materials, and partly to the1
fact that land laid deposits of mud,
sand, or volcanic ash, to which fos-
sil plants are restricted, are of
much less frequent occurrence on
the present land surface than are

because of its belief that our activ-
tiles would aid its business.
"These We're the important I'M
DERIVING considerations. Now as to
our general plan of work.
In covering large region,
thoroughly, under modern meth
DDS, airplane photographs and good
topographic maps are essential.
We are working to get these.
Committees of specialists to
plan and guide various parts of the
work are needed. We have been
very fortunate in gaining assist
anee from many sources in this d.
rection, as was stated in the news
papers at the time of our arrival.
Graduate students are playing
a most important role in under
taking various parts of the larger
studies, and under-g graduates are
serving effectively as field aides.
For our future work we need
to arrange for the completion by
the Z. S. geological survey and
war department of Is fifteen-min-
ute quadrangles yet unflown and
unmapped, lying between the nor
theast corner of Yellowstone park
and the North of Bighorn canyon,
and between the Montana yo-
ming line and Billings. 1t is in
helping to secure these photo
graphs and maps that you and
your Research committee can be
of most assistance.
IF plans continue to develop as
they have done we will establish
a permanent colony in this region
which will serve as a base for our
field Work, and as summer head
quarters for our families and
friends. The International Sum-
mer school of geology and natural
will also plan to bring
ITS foreign guests and students
here. And if we are qualified
all who have seen this country and
have enjoyed its climate, and its
will spread the word that
for summer life and sport the
Beartooth region ranks with the
most delightful on the continent.
Those who have been here will
come back, and those who hear
about it will want to come.
Your climate, your mountain
scenery and your beautiful streams
an lakes are natural resources of
the first magnitude, and are more
over of the sort which become
more valuable with time, instead
OF less so. In the development of
these we can assist, through our
continuing activities, and needless
to say it will be a great pleasure
to us to do so.
In closing | wish to thank you
once more for your cordial well
come and for the interest which
has led to the appointment of your

Since January, 1929, Chevrolet has
produced over 100000 six-cylinder
automobiles nearly five times the
record of any other manufactures
over an equal length of time.
These 100000 buyers have chosen
Chevrolet because it offers scores of
desirable qualities not obtainable in
any other car so low in price.
Yet, despite its many fine car ad-
vantages, the Chevrolet Six is unusl-

22.-InSurgent light horse, trooping
down from the hills of Minas Geraes,
for the second time have cut the rail-
road and other communication be-
tween Sac Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
A small force yesterday attacked and
occupied Cruzeiro, junction city, about
125 miles from Rio de Janeiro. Advices
received here said the city was de-
Tended by a strong federal force un-
der Capt. Newton Cavalcanti. but did
not indicate extent Of fighting.
Raiders Beaten Back.
At inception of the revolution small
rataing force rode down from Minas
Geraes and occupied Lorena, Just south
Of Curzeiro. It interrupted rail- service
between the republics two chief cities,
but later was beaten back.
The narrow stretch of federal terri
tory between the two cities, comprising
little more than the coastal belt, is al
ways open to such attacks, any one OF
which might have most important MILF
tary consequences.
Arrival here of Getulio Vargas, CONF
manding the rebel armies, en- route to
the front, has revivified this little city.
Multitudes besteged his hotel during
the night, demanding he address them.
Vargas, who was defeated by Julio
Prestes for the presidency of the Brazil
ian Union in the last national election,
generally spurned the popular homage
and spent his time preparing plans for
his campaign along the Sac Paulo-
Parana front.
Attended Celebration.
He did, however, attend celebration
of Curityba women, where he shared
honors with Anita Garibaldi, grand
daughter of the Italian lberator.

and of citizens engaged in war prepare
tions. Among other movements is one

OMAHA, Nebr., october Ex-senator
Gerald P. Nye, Republican, North Da-

Prior to a hearing which opened at

divulge the identity of witnesses who
were to appear nor the exact purpose
OF the hearing. Last night, on his
arrival from Tennessee, he said the
Nebraska hearing. : in all probability,
would not be resumed until after the
November election.
Senator George w. Norris, Republic
can nominee for reelection, yesterday
sent letter to Senator Nye request
ing that he return to Nebraska and
resume his inquiry into the attempted
filing of second George w. Norris, q
Broken Bow, Neb., grocer, in the Re-
publican primary.
