Meteorite Search Is On This is Oregon’s Year of the Meteorite. H e a d e d by Dr. Erwin F. Lange, Portland State College Professor of General Science; Hollis M. Dole, State Geologist, State of Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries; and Phil F. B ro g a n , Bend, s c ie n c e w rite r and Pacific Northwest Director of the A - merican Meteor Society, the committee hopes to bring to light undiscovered meteorites. The public w ill be asked to cooperate in the y e a r - lo n g search. Meteorites may exist in wheat field mounds, in rock fences, on the open range, and even in private mineral col lections. In some states, the plow has uncovered more m e t e o r it e s than any other Instrument, The committee sponsoring the Year of the Meteorite hopes to enlist the aid of many people in the statewide search fo r these rocks from space, now of much interest as man pre pares to land on the moot) and probe the planets. “ It is hoped science teachers all over the state w ill discuss m eteoritic properties with stu- dnets, and w ill make the pre- lerr.lnary examination of sus pected specimens thought to be different from o r d i n a r y rocks,” D r. Lange said. If the science teacher is hope ful a new meteorite has been uncovered, the information can be forwarded with a small sam ple to any member of the com mittee. Dr. Lange has a lead a rt icle in the current issue of THE ORE BIN, Department of Geology and Mine rad Industries publication, dealing with met eorites including their ident ification. Oregon has had four authen tic meteorite d is c o v e r ie s . These included the 15.5 ton Willamette iron, largest yet found in the United States.
