DINOSAUR'S FATE " PROBABLY SOLVED Princeton Expedition Finds » Tooth Near Fossil Remains | - Princeton. N. J, Oct. 13 (P—A| sell-tale little tooth discovered near some dinosaur egg shells in Mon-| -.tana gives an insight into the pos-| ssible fate of the earth’s largest race of animals, the extinct dinosaurs. Discovery of the eggs, the first «.found on this continent, and of th=| -tooth nearby was announced today by Dr. Glenn L. Jepsen, head of the Scott fund expedition of Princeton -amniversity. They were found near “Red Lodge in southern Montana last ‘summer. | The tooth was in the same geo- logic formation with the nearby egi shells, an indication, said Dr. Jepsen, that its owner may have been morc | or less contemporaneous with dino- | saurs. | . The unusual and important as- _'pect of this, he said, is that the| tooth owner was a mammal, an ani- mal type usually credited to a later age than dinosaurs, and a creatur ©of higher intelligence, supposed to have developed after the dinosaurs became extinct. Small In Size This Montana mammal was coni- paratively small, a new mammal Aype, probably belonging to the Mar- supiala. This is one of the lowest orders of present day mammals, to which belong kangaroos, opossunis, wombats and bandicoots. The presence of the mammal tooth so near the dinosaur eggs sug- | gests that the unexplained catastro- phe which wiped out the dinosaurs about 75 million years ago may have been collislon with the superior mammalian intelligence. Though the biggest dinosaurs were 80 feet long, the little Montana mammal would need only to know how to steal and eat the eggs to win the race for existence. The eggs are fragments, not more than an inch in diameter, and nearly one-eighth of an inch thick. They are black, rough and pitted. Dr. Jepson said the shells of which they are pleces may have been larger than those of the first dinosaut eggs ever found, which Roy Chapman An-| drews plans to return at some future date to search for complete eggs. Recent findings of dinosaur bones 16 year old son of Mayor J. Hector |yolume and tracks indicate that these rep- tiles once spread over a large part of the United States. These traces have been found in Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Connecticut, Texas and New Jersey. At Bigelow brook near South Manchester, Connecticut, a New Haven railroad bridge abut- ment rests on a rock which scien- tists have identified as containing dinosaur bones.

CURED LEPERS REFUSE T0 LEAVE THEIR COLONY Rehabilitated Mcn Come Back ta Plead Readmission—Some Retuse Point Blank to Leave ‘Washington, Oct. 13 (A—The re- habilitated leper who longs for his colony, instead of wanting to live in the work-a-day world, is one of the puzzling problems of the United States public health service. Instance of a cured leper, who had twice paid his way from a dis- tant city to Carville, Louisiana, was reported to public health headquar- ters here today by the medical officer in charge of the Carville colony. This particular discharged patient was reported a malcontent during his hospital life, but was anxious to make amends in the hope of re- admission for permanent residence, though no longer diseased. The medical officer told of other cured lepers who insisted on return- ing to the colony physicians for treatment of their afiments, instead of consulting local physicians in their home towns. And he described one case in which a man,, ‘com- pletely cured and in the pink of condition,” refused point blank to leave when discharged. The medical officer said the prob- lem of what todo with the paroled leper is under serious consideration by many institutions. Some permit readmission for observation, others insist that they shift for them- selves.
