Many may have been stopped by three big hurdles—money, time and techni cal hurdles which are always en visioned when stories of explora tion and explorers, such as William Beebe and Roy Chapmen Andrews are mentioned. For those, there is a great deal of encouragement in news that you don't have to possess those three things at all to go exploring for fossils because they might be right in your own back yard! Go back a short space of time— say, a few million years—and see what conditions were in your back yard. "Skippy" the Scallop Picture a blazing sun shining on a broad, mirror-like sea. Far be- ' low the surface, zooming from one ' spot to another, is a little organ ism that closely resembles our present-day scallop. Not to be too I scientific, we'll call him "Skippy." : It so happens that "Skippy." be Ing a very active little scallop, ; reaches that stage in life when his usefulness is over and with one final spurt, gives up the ghost and sinks to the bottom. It isn't long before the shifting silt of the ocean floor has completely covered him over. Years pass, the silt layer deep * ens and is compressed by the tons of ocean water above. And "Skip py," once a happy little bi-valve, is but a memory. Following "Skippy's" demise, after a few million years of course, the broad expanse of sea shrinks to several large puddles, two of which we now call the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. And out of the depths emerges . . . your back yard. That, in a nutshell, is the whole story. It may sound a trifle fantastic but it is the truth and easily proved. Let's take a look at the stone walk you made last sum mer, the one from the house to the garage. See that large flat rock, about the third one from the end? See the small lump? Know what it is? Right the first time! It's "Skippy." Field Stone Very Old The "Field Stone" used through out Cincinnati for walls, rock gar dens and terraces is the old ocean floor of the Paleozoic and Cam brian ages. One small piece of this sedimentary rock contains thou sands of fossilized specimens cluding "Skippy" and his cousins. You can easily pick out thé beauti ful sprays of coral, perfect impres sions of marine plant life and the fragile skeletons of minute deni zens of the deep. Each small frag ment is pure exploration for you never know just what you'll find There is always the possibility that you'll find new secrets concerning these ages of long ago. The equipment needed for collect ing these small fossils ts no prob lem, you can find it in the base ment. A hammer, a screwdriver or chisel and one watercolor brush of the cheapest sort, will do. Since this sedimentary stuff is soft, many times you can pick out fine speci mens with only a nail file. The brush will come in handy for clean ing the finer details of the speci mens. Once removed from the mat rix, the fossils can be kept from crumbling with a coat of clear lacquer. Long Miles Just Routine To Car Road Test Pilots NEW YORK.—Washington to St. Louis, 806 miles; Dallas to Denver, 803 miles; New York to Atlanta, 875 miles. These distances repre sent two or three days of tough, hard driving for the "speediest" of tourists. But for the road-test drivers, such distances are just a day's work. For example, owe group of test drivers recently set a record of better than 800 miles per day for 70 days—and that in the blis tering heat along the Mexican bor der that ranged as high as 110 de grees. Fourteen hours every day, six days a week, at speed aver aging 60 miles per hour, six cars were pushed over a 200-mile route. The pace was maintained for more than 50,000 miles—a distance equal to five years' mileage for the av erage family car. The terrific driving record was made in road-testing performance of a new motor oil developed by Continental Oil company. In a tear down of the motors at the end of the long run, measurements of moving parts under observation of technicians of the Southwest Re search Institute showed no wear of any consequence. In fact, actual measurement with highly sensitive instruments showed the wear av eraged less than one one-thou sandth of an inch on cylinders and crankshafts. Original factory ma chining marks were still visible on piston rings. Another result of the road test was the demonstration economy of operation. Gasoline mileage for the last 5,000 miles was as good as for the first 5,000—actually there was an average difference for the fleet of only 4/100 of a mile per gallon, or 184 feet.
