STONE YIELDS A FISH
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 29. (/P)—A
fossil fish, believed to be 2,000,000
years old, and belonging to the old
est known fish family, the ganoidei,
has been brought to light by the
chisel of a stone cutter in a yard
here.
The fish, which was petrified, was
found in a block of limestone. It was
ten inches long and perfect in every
detail, even showing the color of the
flesh and the scales. Differing from
other specimens of the granoid family,
the fossil is rather round and stubby.
