Dinosaur daily life shown

OTTAWA (CP) — The names slip easily off Dale Russell's tongue — even if they do sound like a menagerie collected from the Saturday-morning cartoons.

reptiles still roam in the fertite recesses of his mind

“A day in the of a gatorlizard would not be terribly frenetic,’” he says, surrounded by fossils in the National Museum of Natural Sciences’ paleobiology laboratory

“It wouldn't eat every day, for one thing. And because of its size, it would probably take several hours for it to move 20 yards.””

You couldn't call the gatorlizard a go-getter, says Russell, whose wit is as dry as the bones he digs up.

Russell came up with new names like gatorlizard and cowturtle so that the general reader could avoid the Latin and Greek tongue-twisters. But he had another reason too.

“The vernacular names . . . reflect the reptilian and mam malian characteristics they probably exhibited, as well as the appearance of

Meet the cowturtle: a plant-eating animal with no body armor, generally about the size of small cows. ‘‘Their bodies were barrel-shaped and they probably walked with a turtle-like gait The large heads’ended in a toothless beak, although a large upper body tusk was often present on each side of the mouth.

Russell’s book is a journey, era by era, through the-Mesozoic period about 250 million years ago. He begins with the millennia before the dinosaurs, then adds a chapter on the Triassic when crocodile-like reptiles were domin: nt.

Russell moves to the Jurassic era, the heyday of the Brontosaurus, then shifts to the Cretaceous, the period frozen in the rocks of Alberta's

Badlands when Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops strutted like Hulk Hogan and Rowdy Roddy Piper.

Russell’s prose is complemented by artist Eleanor Kish’s portrayals of the dinosaur age, and by dozens of maps and photographs,

Russell closes the book with his own theory about the extinction ef the dinosaurs. They and 90 per cent of other life on the planet died after a comet slammed into the earth, he believes.

**Whren the comet crossed the orbit of the moon,"’ Russell writes, **it was moving at a velocity of 30 kilometres a second and the end of the Cretaceous was three hours away.

**It seemed to hang in the sky like a second moon, or the eye of God, but no dinosaur looked at it with under- standing

Path work completed

By JOHN CHARTERS

Visitors to Zuckerberg Island Heritage Park can now walk comfor tably to the south end of the island (Rocky Point) to sit and if they wish, picnic.

The Castlegar and District Development Board crew paid a return visit on Thursday and not only cleaned up the slash cut by a Rotary-sponsored team on Sept. 9, but completed work on the lagoon path, including the in stallation of log seats at the end of the point

The area provides a sandy place for children to play in aind the logs provide a barrier to prevent children from fallilng into the lagoon improvement channel financed by B.C. Hydro. The new path, which goes right around the point, now gives a new perspective and dimension to the lower end of the island

Doris Sweeney, Castlegar and District Heritage Society director an- d island supervisor, has spent many hours with community service workers, grooming, landscaping and preparing the park for the extra help. She expressed great satisfaction with the work done by the trail crew and hopes to have them for one further day to complete this year’s program by burning the slash piles under the direc- tion of Castlegar fire chief and heritage director Bob Mann

He estimated that with between 150 and 175 recognized groups applying each year, the annual tab could come to about $3 million.

Reid, also the minister responsible for B.C. Lotteries Corp., said any non- profit community organization raising money for health and welfare programs could apply, and would be no spending ceiling

He also said the provincial gover nment is thinking about extending the same kind of fund-raising grants to be performing arts organizations but that charity casinos and bingos would not be eligible for the

The central values of Christianity, according to Loenen, are loving your neighbor, telling the truth and, especially, respecting the individual.

The constitution review committee responded to protests from a ‘‘strong element of Christian people within the party,”’ said Loenen, a member of the Christian Reformed church:
