Rare Fossil Deposit Found Berkeley, Calif. ilP A 250-1 square-mile area of desolate Co lombia badlands is one ox tne most important regions of the earth to paleontologists today. Recent discoveries m the upper Magdalena valley of the South American republic have been de scribed as the richest fossil find in the past 20 years. The valley, which 50,000,000 years ago was mostly a big mudflat along a ma jor river, yielded four huge crates of fossils weighing a ton and a half to a University of California expedition. The speciments, most of which are well preserved, represent 10 orders of mammals. Dr. Ruebin A. Stirton, Univer sity of California professor, said the find is important for several reasons: 1. It supplies the first import ant fossil record of South Ameri can mammals outside Argentina and is in many ways superior to tnat oi tne Argentine. 2. The record is prolific and varied, which is unusual in pale ontology. 3. It provides the first abundant record of fossil vertebrate ani mals in the tropical region of South America. 4. These remains, being taken from the migratory doorway to South America, will permit scien tists to elucidate much about the age of mammals in the continent SANTA PLANS VISIT Redmond, Dec. 9 Santa Claus" annual visit to Redmond is scheduled for 10 o'clock Sat urday morning, December 17.

Pat McCarruti, I)., Nev., Just back from a three-month tour of F.u itipc, today recommended a cut of almost $.'1,000,000,000 in Marshall plan spending In the next two years.
