Bones Found
At Ashland
ASHLAND, Ore. (AP)-A three-foot-long
chunk of bone, believed
to be part of a mastodon which
died 20 to 40 million years ago,
was found Tuesday on the South
ern Oregon College campus.
Grounds keeper Dick Jay came
upon the find while digging a
drainage ditch near the men's
dormitory.
Science teachers said they think
that the school site is on the edge
of what was once a huge inland
sea and that the big elephant-
ilike mammal probably had died
after becoming caught in quick
sand. Science students started digging
at the site after Jay found the
bone. They uncovered what is be
lieved to be a tooth. It measured
8 inches by 10 inches by 4 inches.
The digging will continue.

RRs Continue Their Case
For Demurrage Fees Slash
PORTLAND (AP)-A group of
railroads continues presentation
of its case for reduced demur
rage charges at an Interstate
Commerce Commission hearing
here Wednesday. '
The railroads are asking the
ICC to extend from 24 hours to
15 days the period during which
lumber-loaded freight cars may
be in transit without incurring
demurrage charges ranging from
p-i iu so a aay.
A group of lumber operators
will oppose the plan when their
turn comes to testify. The lum
ber operators believe such ship
ping procedures contribute to the
freight car shortage.
However, lumber wholesalers
are backing the railroad request.
The wholesalers frequently start
lumber-loaded cars to the east be
fore buyers are obtained. The
railroad program would reduce
the cost of such sale-in-transit
shipments.
