Stoyanow, University of Arizona ‘geologlst believes the recent dis- |covery of a dinosaur skeleton in ]soumeaslern Arizona may prove of igreat value to modern prospectors hunting “lost veins” of valuable ore. The find, he said, will afford practical aid to miners, dealing |with the vagaries of rock strata, jumbled in prehistoric upheavals. The skeleton was the first proof |that the geological formation the area where the bones lie was jof the cretaceous period. Prior to {the discovery many geologists be- lieved the area was of the tertiary period millions of years later. Dr. Stoyanow explained the value of the discovery to miners thus: “Often a vein of ore will run out; that is, the geological period for- mation in which it existed is broken off, and the vein is ‘lost’ If the | miner knows to what period the vein [belonged and can then find within a reasonable distance strata of the same period, he stands a good {chance of recovering the vein or finding familiar ore formation Science Traces " Growth Through ngs ,_'" Teeth CHICAGO, April [21. - Teetl | rings, enlighten scientists on the mystery of growth. Dr. Isaac Schour of the University of Illinois says every person carries his own growth record in his “baby |teeth,” a ring in the dentine and |enamel. The ring is found in all ,|teeth in the process of formation when the individual is born, but not !in later, permanent teeth. Dr. Schour claims these rings are permanent and indelible records of the change from the passive pre- natal life to the independent life | following birth and that this should help scientists determine the lamount and quality of development in each period.
