DINOSAUR EGG FIND NOT UNEXPECTED Scholars Knew Discovery Would Be Matter of Time, Says Scientist. Pinding of dinosaur eggs in Montana, just reported by geologists of Princeton | University, is a long-expected discovery, according to Dr. James A. Gidley of the | the problem of how the dinosaurs came to their end with the advent of the age of mammals. Some have held that the small, alert, warm-blooded crea- | tures, the ancestors of the dominant life on earth today, put an end to their great rivals by sucking their eggs. They had better brains than the reptiles and moved more quickly and efficiently But the probability is, Dr. Gidley says, that this had very little to do with it. The extinction of the dinosaurs came about over a period of several | million years simply because the climate and the character the country | | changed. For millions of years they had lived in the dense, hot marshes and | their systems had become adapted to | certain kinds of food. When the | National Museum.
