Professor Clements presented his subject, “The Geologic Hto* tory of the Channel Island Region of Southern California,'' as being a progress report on the \ continuing study of the geologic history of this region.
“This is a type of work that Is never finished,” he said, adding that his own knowledge was gained to a great extent from the work of previous scientist? and undoubtedly others would be 1 ready to take up where he left off.
Slides showing the floating laboratory. Velero III and the important part it played in the ac-I cumulation of the data neces-j sary for his study were presented ; during the lecture.
Using a type of core drill patterned after that developed by the Scripps institute of oceano-j graphy, samplings of the ocean bottom from all over the channel island region extending 150 miles off shore from Santa Barbara south to San Diego were taken and studied on board the Velero III.
Fossil and plant evidence gained through this procedure are reasonably conclusive proof that at various stages in the geologic development of this region, the shore line has receded and islands off shore have submerged only to rise again during a later era.
