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.

deepest interior opened a very
long seam beneath this huge
mass in a generally north-
south direction. 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.

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

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

The group will work under
a two-year $57,600 grant from
the National Science founda
tion and a $6,000 grant from

tions begun in 1960 and 1961

they will survey the Monu
ment area as a basis for ex
cavation work next year.
