GEOLOGY FIELD TRIP

Dean Shepard's geology class took
its first field trip October 26. Co.
ing to a point about nine miles
southwest of Dixieland on the old
San Diego highway, the young
biologists studied variety of gov
ernment survey marks.
Some of the geological features
noted on the trip included the up
turned sandstone strata extending
across the valley, the different sizes
of sandstone concretions which
earned for that location the name
of Cabbage Patch" While in the
vicinity of the old beach line, they
discovered two or three species of
fresh water shells, and little far
ther on found more evidences of
ancient marine life. The class con-
siders the trip very successful, and
looks forward to many more as
enjoyable.
