To talk about the rest of us.

Geology Class Visits
Penna Crystal Cave
Mr. Zerbe's geology class made a
trip on Tuesday afternoon to Crystal
Cave, Pa., where they enjoyed an in
teresting tour through the cave. The
guide helped add color to his explan
atory remarks by an effective use of
his Pennsylvania Dutch accent.
The cave was found in 1871 when
a group of men accidently discovered
it while blasting for limestone. Geol
ogosts believe that the cave was
formed in the glacial period, many
years ago, when rushing water
washed away the loose strata.
The trip was made by automobile
with six cars leaving from the Wal
nut :Street Building at 1:00 p.m. Prior
to departure, a member of the Ha
zleton Police Department halted
highway traffic, making it possible
for the group to leave together.

iCampus.

was conducted by Miss Garbrick on
