...feet below the surface. The strata are of the Pleistocene age, antedating the last great ice age, which ended at least 15,000 to 20,000 years ago. Several trained scientists happened to be near, including Dr. John C. Merriam, President of the Carnegie Institution; Dr. Robert T. Hill, geologist; Dr. William A. Bryan, Director of the Los Angeles Museum; Dr. Chester Stock, of the department of paleontology, University of California. Their reports seem to indicate that the remains are not only the oldest of the prehistoric man in America, but that they belong to the "true men," i.e., contemporaries...
...Brea ranch, near Santa Barbara, Calif. Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, of the Smithsonian Institution, recently punctured all discoveries hitherto as not more than 5,000 years old. A human deposit of the late glacial period, found near Trenton, N. J., however, is considered genuine by many paleontologists. Dr. Hill and his colleagues are men of excellent standing. The location of the fossils might be due to slides of more recent strata, but Dr. Hill says there is no possibility of such geologic intrusion there, as there was at Santa Barbara. Drs. F. W. Hodge, W. K. Gregory and Clark Wissler, leading...

The absence of K. N. Hill, who is at the Infirmary with the grippe, gives the coaches an opportunity to try out the two Sophomore hurlers, both of whom did well in the practice game last Friday. Puffer in particular has shown flashes of considerable promise. With the exception of the pitcher, the Crimson line-up will remain uncharged...
Encouraged by the B. U. victory, Coach Slattery will send the same lineup on the field this afternoon at 4 o'clock in the second clash of the season. K. N. Hill or Brown will be on the mound and Cheek will again be at the other end of the battery...
