DoodIings on Cliffs
Puzzle ArchaeoIogisfs

LAS VEGAS, NEV.-Archaeolog-
ical sleuths are facing a perplex-
ing "whodunit."
The mystery concerns numerous
doodlings found on the steep cliffs
and rock-streWn floor Of nearby
Keyhole canyon in the heart Of the
Mojave desert.
Two diversified schools have their
own solution, but both agree these
latest finds of the primitive art Of
leaving a mark, date back at least
1000 years.
The doodles, or petroglypus-as
the more technical folk call them
have intrigued archaeologists and
students of Indian lore ever since
their discovery.
One school, headed by DR.. George
Baldwin, archaeologist with the ma
tional park service, says it was the
work of the Patayans who disap-
peared from Nevada culture around
1900 AID.
On the other hand, DR.. Robert
Fenlon of Boulder City, New, con-
tends the petroglyphs are the work
Of the little men," The little"
men," DR.. Fenlon asserts, we're

two feet tall, who we're the leading
citizens of the area in the first CEN
