one stone actually was sent to the
Massachusetts Institute of Technol-
ogy for analysis.

laboratory that when the secretary
of one researcher expressed doubt
that the stones came in the hail, she
was shushed up as not realizing the
importance of the find, and SCI
entists were reported bidding to the
householders as high as IS for one
stone. Many, it was laid, sold for
so cents.
The mystery, however. was unex-
pectedly solved last night when
snoopers discovered dump of the
'hailstones" not far from the lab
oratory.
1t seems that they are made of
ordinary glass and are used in cer-
tain grinding processes. When scar
red. they are disposed of at the Ana.
costa dump. Small boys in the
neighborhood did the rest, scattering
the marbles" over the lawns after
