STORY LEFT BEHIND Des Moines, Iowa-(UP&-Fred Ormand, inmate-reporter for the Iowa State Penitentiary magazine, Thursday walked away from the prison farm when he had been temporari ly assigned to gather informa tion for a feature story. New Explanation In Formation of Continents Voiced By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor New York -0IPI1- If you be lieve there has been much moving about of the land on this earth, you'll be pleased with a new explanation of how the continents got from where they used to be to where they are now. The explanation sounds rea sonable. It also is subject to proof or disproof. Indeed, Us author. Prof. J. Tuzo Wilson of the Institute of Earth Sci ence, University of Toronto, predicted the old scientific controversy on the question of "continental drift" is going to be settled soon. Reasonng from a large num. ber of established facts, he figured North and South America, Europe, Africa, Aus- tralia, India, and Antarctica farmed a single land mass some 130 million years ago. Off to the east and north was another land mass which now is the core of Asia. Disturbances in the earth's to 1&3 WAR. 22 1 55-64.731 776-77 yf TAUfUS gk APR. 21 I MAY 21 ri. 7-io.ifui UAV 22 .

Volcanic forces played through, this seam, forming an ever-widen ing ridge along its entire length. Cross-seams and then cross- ridges broke through from un derneath all along this length. particularly at the ends which were subjected to a wedging force. The result was that the gigantic land mass was ripped into pieces and forced by the rising ridges in what are now ocean basins to drift apart The beginnings of Australia broke away from the southern end. Antarctica broke away from Australia and drifted southward. Then India also broke away from Australia and drifted until it collided with the Asia core with such force Mount Everest and the other Himalayas were heaved up by compression. Africa parted from what is now South America, Central America and the southeast United States. The beginning of Greenland drifted eastward from North America, Iceland broke off. The remainder of this fragment was Europe which kept on drifting until it collided with Asia. Depends, on Ridges Wilson labeled this a hy pothesis. Its. value in the 30- year-old controversy is that it depends on more than the mere "matching" of present- day ragged coast-lines, such as those of western Africa and eastern South America which match rather well. It also depends on ridges along the ocean floors. Those which are known to exist give credence to the hypothesis. Others have to exist If Wil son's reasoning is going to stand up. He predicted where they should be and It is up to earth scientists to find out if they're there. Earth science is now mak ing rapid advances in knowl edge of the earth's interior, the ocean floors, and the vary ing patterns of magnetism of rock formations. All this com bined with coastlines "match ing" and other older informa tion should soon settle the continental drift controversy once and for all, he said. 'Cleopatra' Premier Draws Cheers, Brickbats New York (UPIt Cleopatra, the $40 million film gamble came to Broadway Wednesday night for a celebrity-packed woria premiere that had a Broadway mob of 8,000 cheer ing and critics reaching for both superlatives and brick bats. The street crowds reduced Broadway traffic to two lanes and brought 125 police to the scene to maintain order Mounted police had to charge surging fans three times to keep them behind barricades. The noisy excitement at tendant on the long-awaited debut of the four-hour film the longest and costliest i movie history-was music to the ears of 20th Century-Fox executives, who risked the fu ture of their company on the super-spectacular. The studio lost $39 million last year and will have to gross $62 million on Cleopatra ' just to break even. The unanswered post - pre miere question was Is it that good?" Some critics of the film, starring Elizabeth Tay lor, Richard Burton and Rex Harrison, found it "well worth waiting for" and "generally brilliant and satisfying. But others described it as "an ex travagant exercise in tedium," unable to involve the view er's emotions" and "dramati cally pallid." The mob which swamped Broadway for three blocks in the area of the Rivoli theater had hoped for a surprise show ing of the on-and-offstage lov ers. Miss Taylor and Burton, but they stayed in London. Eugene - Four archaeologi cal research teams from the niversity of Oregon will be in the field this summer con tinuing survey and excavation work in Oregon and Alaska, according to Dr. L. S. Cress man, head of the anthropol ogy department. A group of 18 or 19 stu dents under the direction of David L. Cole, curator of the University Museum of Nat ural History, will leave later in the month to continue the university's ten-year excava tion project along the Colum- ia' river from the John Day upstream to McNary dam. They will be working un der a $23,000 grant from the National Park service, which is responsible for the salvage of a reasonable sample of archaeological material from areas to be x inundated by dams built under federal license. This year the group will complete a project on the Oregon side of the river in Wildcat canyon near Quinton nd begin work in a new area on Blalock island near Boardman. The project is in its sixth year. In another salvage opera tion, a university team will be working for the third and last year in the Salt Caves dam area on the Klamath riv er near the Oregon-California border. Residents Reminded Of Fireworks Law With the coming of the Fourth of July, the Medford city fire department has re minded Oregon residents of the laws governing fireworks and their display. Oregon law prohibits the sale, use, or explosion of any fireworks in the state. The law docs provide, how ever, that public attended fireworks may be displayed, provided that a permit be ob tained from the state fire marshal In Salem. Exceptions to the term "fireworks" re small paper caps used in toy pistols and sparklers. Violators using fire works without permits may be fined up to $500 and sen tenced to six months in jail.

The Copco division of the Pacific Power and Light com pany, which is building the dam, is supporting the project with an $8,000 grant. During the month of June, Dr. Wilbur A. Davis, assist- nt curator of the Museum of Natural History, is running an archaeological survey of the El Paso Natural Gas com pany pipeline right-of-way from Eugene to Grants Pass. El Paso is bearing the full cost of the survey., Oregon Park During July and August an archaeological survey of Cra ter Lake National park and the Oregon Caves National monument will be conducted This first year of a proposed three-year project is being supported by a $5,000 grant from the National Park serv ice as part of its Mission 66 program. These two areas have not been explored archaeologlcal ly before. Purpose of the sur vey Is to find out if there are any promising sites for exca vation within the park and monument boundaries. Don E. Dumond, assistant professor of anthropology, has left lor Alaska where he is supervising flying in food and equipment to the Katmai Na tional monument on the northwestern side of the Alaska Peninsula. He will be followed in a few days by a group of five students. The group will work under a two-year $57,600 grant from the National Science founda tion and a $6,000 grant from the National Park service. In addition to continuing excava tions begun in 1960 and 1961 under a previous NSF grant, they will survey the Monu ment area as a basis for ex cavation work next year. Savings Bond Safes In Week Total $4,206 Savings bonds sales In Med ford for the week ending Fri day, June 7, amounted to $4,- 206, local banks reported. Total sales since the begin ning of the Freedom Bond drive on May 1 total $55,- 156.25 in Medford, which is almost half of the goal at tempted by saving bonds lead ers of $105,000. , Winema Forest Sets Fireman Training Klamath Falls - Sevenmile Guard station next week will be the scene of the Winema National forest's annual Fire man Training camp.
