Dr. Miller, who helped excavate the fossils, said such discoveries need not be rare. Numerous fossils will start turning up once people realize that many areas of Utah are rich in bone deposits. camels, mammoths, Alter the mammoth find was made public. Dr. Miller said several persons called him to report fossils they had found while camping, hiking, hunting, or working on construction projects. ground sloths, giant hoaxers, bison, muskoxen, mastodons, and cats, the Brigham Young University scientist said.

Dr. Miller said anywhere the ground is broken is a potential spot for fossil finds An alert observer can make some surprising finds in gravel pits, at excavations, in cuts for road construction, on emxled land, and in building ex- cavations, he noted. "These are valuable materials which help scientists determine past climates and learn more about life forms that inhabited the stale during the Pleistocene epoch, he said. Unfortunately, many fossils are relegated to garages and basements or they end up as door stops or paperweights where they are of no use ter scientific research. 30S.(ii' Gary GourEy Jf-ry Gour'.ey Lloyd .I'lin.--i ii Mountain State- - Water Work'.

A newr effort to reach and retain these previously mute sources is being made during the Bicentennial.

Though developed primarily for high school teachers and students, the booklet arid the program are available to anv interested group or individual.
