SCIENCE SEEKS TO FINO EARLY AMERICAN LIFE Prehistoric Man May Have Existed Here Millions Os Years Aro By 11. (). Thompson. VP Stuff Correspondent : penvpr, Colo., Jan. 1" < « >*> «<•»«"• ( , IH are digging Into the earth in „., ny Heetions of the western plains , lintry , seeking more light on fairly v ll established contentions that preman existed In America milliens of years ago. ■l'h work being done contradicts to a rent extent the common belief that th., life of man in America did not approach the antiquity found in Etrope. Harold J. Cook, honorary curator of paleontology at the Colorado Museum ,f Natural History, gave a synopsis scientific achievements in this region when he addressed the < ,dorado Wyoming Academy of Scienat Denver University. During the Pleistocene age. we have ample evidence that various i.n-es of bison invaded America from "via", he said. “In fact, Asia is now pneiaby admitted to have been the center of development and dispersal L mammalian life throughout tertiary times. ■ Now. with all these things in mind, is it not logical to lielieve that early .man, developing under such conditions, could migrate into America kpdte as well as the game he hunted, ht any time they could get here?’’

Finds In Texas Following out this line <>f thought, Dr. Cook told of recent discoveries tending to substantiate the theory. At the town of Colorado, In southwest Texas, were found skeletons of a new type of extinct, flat-horned bison, and remains of two races of elephant, u ' large camel, various extinct horses I and other typically pleistocene mam mala.” "In taking out an articulated skeleton of one of these flat-horned bison," Cook said, "representatives of the Colorado museum found three arrow i heads definitely associated In the matrix with <♦ and under conditions . that preclude the possibility of error. They were undoubtedly shot into that very buffalo." At about the same time fossil remains f a large extinct bison were found near Folsom, N. M. "Tlte American Museum. New York. | was invited to participate in the work 1 this past summer," said Cook, "and did so. Here, associated with the bison, sixteen flint points were found of an absolutely new type and of the finest grade of workmanship known in flawed stone. "Fortunately, four of these were exposed undisturbed in position, where fpund during the course of these excavations. There is no question of definite-association here'of these flint points with a race of extinct bison. Train Hurls Auto Forty Feet; Driver Escapes Death Indianapolis. Jan. 10 —(UP)—Ceci!
