Mid-Atlantic Ridge two summers ago. Ophiolites are a complex family of magmatic rocks originally formed at great depths in some ancient or recent oceanic areas. But why devote a major scientific meeting to a study of ophiolites? Actually, this family of rocks is one of the most fashionable areas of study for con- temporary geologists because there is a feeling that ophiolites can give information about the way in which the deepest zones of the earth's mantle were formed, as well as information relevant to major geo- logical phenomena, such as continental drift, sea- floor spreading, and other important astronomical implications. Besides, as it was discussed at the Conference, many major economical deposits are tightly connected DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME PUBLIC NOTICE Citizens are reminded to SET CLOCKS BACK ONE HOUR AT 2 O'CLOCK AM.

Such research may re- sult in a clearer picture of the way in which the earth's crust evolved. The Penrose Conference involved not more than thirty-five experts in ophiolites from the United States, Russia, France, Italy, Switzerland, Holland, Brazil, Venezuela, Australia and Tasmania. Dr. Loubat explained that the general feeling at the end of the Penrose meetings was one of enthusiasm and belief that new discoveries of great scientific impact would result from the fruitful exchange of ideas of some of the world's leading geologists.

Dr. Loubat is currently engaged in a very careful examination of ophiolites found in the Pre-Cam- brian Shield. These rocks were formed eons ago when they were part of eventual volcanic ridges along the floor of a very old ocean.
