DENIES PLEISOSAUR IN EXISTENCE TODAY
Prof R. C, Moore, State Geologist Says Such a Theory is Preposterous
EXTINCT 10 MILLION YEARS
Chuburt, South America to be Explored for Ancient Animal, Anyway
That the much-touched "Pleiosaur of ages ago should be alive and easily existent in South America is preposterous in the opinion of Prof. R, C. Moore, geologist. "The remains of the Pleiosaur are not found in the later rocks," said Professor Moore this morning.
"That particular animal became extinct some nine or ten million years ago. However, in so far as hair and skin of some animals of recent geological time have been lately found, it is clear that the extinction of a Giant Sloth could be alive in the unexplored and uninhabited parts of southern South America."
- Bones of very large animals have been found in the rocks of South America which evidence that these animals have disappeared from the earth but recently, geologically speaking.
The report of the existence of the Pleisaurus in South America came from Buenos Aires and the report adds that an expedition is being fitted out to penetrate the Territory of Chubut, near the Andes Mountains, in search of the ancient beast. Following on the heels of this report came another, from the navy yard at Philadelphia, where the remains of a shipman an animal of the description given outlined against the skyline while his vessel was off the coast of Argentina.
An Englishman named Sheffield claims he caught a glimpse of the Plesiosaur while hunting in the Andes, which report seems to substantiate the assertions of others having seen the animal during the last year.
Prof. Clément Onelli, director of the Buenos Aires zoological garden, recently stated that at least one of the animals, generally considered to exist only in fossil form, is actually alive in Pataconia.
"Some one has been reading too much of Conan Doyle's *Lost World*" was the way Professor Moore hit his opinion of the story this morning.
RECOMMEND NEW HOSPITAL
Nurses Move Out to Provide More Room
At a meeting of the University committee on Health, Hygiene and Housing, Saturday morning, the recommendation was made that an adequate building be provided for the University Hospital. At the present time the hospital is located in a former private dwelling, as are all the other buildings, and because, and very difficult to make them suitable for hospital needs.
According to the report of the staff, 8200 patients have been treated since September 12, and of this number, 190 have been bed patients confined for a period from one day to three weeks. Last week the hospital was so crowded that the nurses moved out to provide room for patients.
The committee believes that in view of the small charge made for service, the work of the hospital has been excellent, and that the only real need is for proper housing facilities. They made no attempt to produce a comprehensive plan for a building because their recommendation must first be considered by the Chancellor and Board of Administration.
