OBSERVES SIGNS OF PRE-CAMBRIAN LIFE Prof. Sir Edgeworth David Says Evolution Goes Back 600,000,000 Years previous theories and calculations by scientists about the daww of life on the earth may be upset by Prof. Sir Edgeworth David, of Sydney, world famous geologist. His discovery in rocks taken from Mount Lofty and Fliners Ranges of South Australia, of perfectly presery- ed remnants of animal life millions of years older than any so far classi- fied by science, is of enormous inter- est and reveals that evolution may date back to a much earlier period than was supposed. The earliest forms of life that had been classified, occurred in rocks of the Cambrian period, which available date suggests to have settled 500,000,- 000 years ago. An American geolo- gist who died last year, Dr. C, D, Walcott, had discovered in Montana a few obscure fragments which prov- ed that remnants of animal life might he found in rocks older than the Cambrian, but these specimens were so fragmentary that it was impossible to classify them, even roughly. Scien- tists wondered what form of life had taken hefore the Cambrian period, but were left with guesses, Recent Discovery Suddenly Professor David stepped into a new world. For 30 years he has heen searching for ancestors of the Cambrian period, but it is only within the last few weeks that he has found traces of life nearly 600,- 000,000 years ago. Through a powerful microscope he continued his observations incessant- ly. Founding his hopes upon what science supposed of the period, he was looking for white shells, His discovery of fossils perfectly and ex- quisitely colored was a surprise, The fossils range over a stratum at least 10,000 feet thick, This fauna must, therefore, have existed for many millions of years, and as it was a marine fauna spread over approxi- mately a million square miles in Aus- tralia, it must have crossed the Paci- fic and other contemporaneous oceans, It has heen supposed the strata in which the remains are fossilized were non-fossilliferous, but Professor Da- vid believes that every cubic inch of the limestone and clay shale rocks will he found to contain innumerable remains, 1 (1927) Essex Coupe Chadburn Motor Co.

Less than 24 hours after he killed 10 members of his own race, Ying was captured near Nevada City and Tetumed here to stand trial for mur- er. In a jargon he told officials the story of events that were climaxed when he killed more persons than any murderer of California's history. Real- 0 Joe Tanko and Floyd Hall, youth- ul desperadoes who terrorized . the state for many months. "I just like Tanko and Hall--very very sick," he complained before he started the weird recital of love for a young Chinese girl, the antagonism f the girl's relatives and his strange reams of their attempts to poison im. "T no eat Chinese cake," Ying told authorities. "I know who want kill e. I kill them first." Ying, who is 29 years old, was under the effects of drugs when he started his crimes, Sheriff John Thornton, of Solano County, said he learned from his prisoner. Fell in Love Several months ago Ying fell in love with Nellie Gee, 16-year-old daughter of Wong Gee, patriarch of the Chinese fruit picking camp here. Gee, his wife and three small children izing his position he likened himself | were the first to be killed by Yings "revenge," Thornton said, ellie was seriously wounded. Wong Gee did not like the romance and ordered Ying to leave, the sher- iff said he had learned. The suitor did not bother the girl any more and sought solace in oriental drugs, whence came the ideas that his hie was in danger, Thornton claimed. After Ying had killed six members of the Gee family he murdered Yong Fong, Wong Win Fong, Chew Yue and Low Check and fled in an auto- mobile.
