DR.. Roland w. Brown, paleontolo-
gist of the geological survey work
ing with the fossil collections of the
Smithsonian institution, has set
aside from time to time curious
impressions on sandstone which
presumably were made about 200
million years ago by wind-blown
palm leaves in the soft ooze of far
scattered sea beaches.
He could not identify them and
finally came to question whether
they were made by any sort of
leaves. Exploring all probable alter
natives he has finally determined
that they were made by the egg
capsules of fossil fishes of an
ancient sharklike family whose

Keep a sponge and a wide
mouthed, covered jar in the bath
room. When washing delicate neck
wear, place it in the jar filled with
suds and shake. This saves wear
on fragile lace and fabric. 1t saves
soap, too, because of the small
amount of water-and also because
you can reuse the suds. Just pour
some on the sponge to wipe finger

U5SR 0BSTRUCT5 PEACE MEASURES
 CHARGES HOOVER

SAN MARINO, Calf, Aug. 27.- Former President Herbert Hoover believes Soviet Russia is "obstruct- ing all peace measures and all pro- gress toward peace"
 Charging Russia is strengthen ing it's hold from the Baltic States through the Balkans, Hoover said in an interview yesterday thai the Russians want time completely to consolidate Communist control of people in those states east of the iron curtain and in Manchuria."
 They are eliminating all dissi- dent clements" he added. They are setting up concentration camps in each of those countries and de- porting many to Siberia"
 Hoover, who recently returned from 95-day tour of the world surveying famine conditions for President Truman, pointed to the current situation in Yugoslavia.
 We spent perhaps $300,0O0,00C on Yugoslavia as a gift in agricul- tural implements and food. It seems a pretty poor return" he sad that they shoot down our airmen.
 One thing can be said for the Yugcslav people. The fact that we contributed anything to UNRRA or to them is unknown to anyone in Yugoslavia. It is a Communist state with a completely controlled press.
