OF By Alfred Berihmet (united Press Staff Corresponent) new YORK (UP ) valuable, not only to the dlnosaura whose gaa tronomto efforts they once aided, but also to the modern paleontologist, re the gastrollths, or "gizzard atones," of the prehtetorto monsters unearthed by Dr. Barnum Brown, These gastrollths were polished In the corps of dinosaurs over 130,000, 000 yeara ago. Eminent In paleontologtcal work nd conspicuous for his productive excavations in the United States, Dr, Brown brought to light large col lectlona of these curious and en lightening "gizzard stones," during his latest Montana expedition. To describe the gastrollths as gema would not be an exaggeration, for. while many are ordinary members of ths llthologlcal (stone) world, hundreds of them are carnellan a gem stone. The gastrolltha shown to the United Press correspondent by Dr. Brown In hla office at the American Museum of Natural Hie. tory, ranged In size from that of walnut to that of an average Ink bottle. The carnellan variety were polished to a gleam, Dr, Brown call ed attention to the fact that, In contrast to this high polish the stones (some consisting of glass, about as hard aa carnellan) found to the crops of chickens, are etched end dull. The explanation for the finding or the gnalrollths In groups Is that, as they were disgorged by the dinosaurs, they sifted through IN. ths soft silt down the harder slant' ing bedrock underneath: according ly numbers of thrm amassed In sep arate deposits. Not all the atonea found were disgorged, however. la Illustrated by a group which were found near the location of the dlnosaura crop with the skeleton. In addition to their general In- tereet, these "gizzard stones" have provided a means of reconstructing the topography of Montana aa It was when dinosaurs roamed through primeval swamps and across arid plains. What the general character of the terrain was, may be quite accurately hypothesized. Knowing through geological evidences the particular quality of each successive stratum of rocks end clays, the paleontologist by calculating the particular bed where the gastrollths are found, may restore and retrace the approximate height, character, etc., of the ground sa it existed over one million centuries ago. When queatloned aa to the au thenticity of the gastrollths, Dr. Brown recalled the skeleton aggre gation and cited as further proof the fact thst they were not trans ported to their ultimate destination through any natural agency, audi as wster streams, etc. The mode ol conveyance, explained Dr, Brown, km purely mechanical.
