Falkenbach, senior field man for the American Museum of Natural History in New York, spent last week studying the exhibits and collections in the museum. Rearrange Floor. To accommodate the visitors, the university plans to rearrange the lower floor of the hall. A dis play room with mounted birds and mammals will occupy the lower floor this fall. Half of the room will be occupied by an anthropol ogy display with relics of ancient peoples. The other half will con tain a systematic display of mod ern vertebrates. One of the finest new fossil ex hibits is that of the ground sloth (pronounced with a long "o") in the west corridor on the main floor. These remains were found in Garden county, Nebraska, in 19.1i?, by a university museum party. Mingled with these fossil ized bones were those of the giant camel, largest ever mounted any where, which is also on display. Sloth Exhibit.- The ground sloth exhibit is of paitieular interest because it is the only one ever known to be found in the Great Plains. It stands six or seven feet high, with long claws and powerful teeth. But Dr. C. Beitrand Schultz, director of the museum, says it is small compared with its enormous, room size successsor. Ground sloths are now extinct, though they are related to the tree sloths of South America and the armadillos of Texas and Mex ico. The sloth on display is prob ably of the type that migrated from South America when the continents were joined by land several million years ago. After getting into North America these ancestral types developed into the giant sloths of later eras. Exhibit of the sloth was made possible through the Charles Fl ick rfund, and it was mounted for the museum by Henry Reider.
