' PRIMEVAL PRIZE Local Youth Discovers Large Mastodon Tooth In Deer Creek By Bev Brook News-Review Staff Writer A mastodon lost a tooth about 20.000 years ago, but It was only recently that Larry Wheatley, 16, found it. , Larry, who lives at 2143 NE Klamath and who is a sophomore at Roseburg High School, is an avid searcher for Indian arrow heads. He also spends a good part of his time looking for fossils, rocks and other scientific objects. His recent search took him about 2 miles east on Deer Creek. There, submerged in the water on the creek bottom, he discovered the tooth which had been shed Thousands of years ago by th giant prehistoric creature. Size of Fist The incisor or molar, whichever the case might be, is about the size of Larry's doubled-up fist. To his knowledge there has been only one other found in the Roseburg area. Larry took the tooth to his for mer science teacher; John Hausot- fer, an instructor at Joseph Lane Junior High School. He made a positive identification of the tooth and said it was about 20,000 years old. The mastodon became extinct about 10,000 years ago, Larry said. According to Larry, the Masto don, a vegetarian, was a large ani mal about the size of an elephant. only shorter. It had tusks as well as teeth, and its body was covered with long shaggy hair. The tooth In question had seven "cones" or ridges which indicated that the mastodon was old when it died, said Hausotter. As the tooth wears, more tooth grows, thus forming the tones, Hunts Arrowheads Larry has been hunting arrow heads for about two years. He now has about 150. These, together with various rocks and fossils he has found, have made storage some what of a problem, Larry admits. Every nook and cranny and closet in his room is full, he said. The problem will intensify, too, since Larry said he never comes back from his forays empty-handed. He expects to varnish the tooth to preserve it. At the time of its discovery, it had to be handled I the basis of a career. FALLS OFF MOUNT WINDSOR.

When leaders were certain the bill could not pass, the rules suddenly were suspended. The House then killed the measure. Throughout the evening and night the hallways between the Senate and House were jammed with clusters of lobbyists. Some, smi.ing and relaxed were waiting to see what would happen. Others, angry, tense and threatening, frantically tried to get last-minute consideration of net measure. By evening, all that blocked ad journment was a decision on high er education salaries, and whether the Portland tuberculosis hospital should be closed. Conferees argued, pleaded, threatened.
