Jacksonville Fla., Feb 27, 1928 Monday morning daily. State's Origin Study Subject Yale Professor Attempts to Solve Formation. The Associated Press. TALLAHASSEE, Feb. 26.—Floridians may learn something shortly of the real origin of their state. Dr. Charles Schuchert, professor emeritus of paleontology of Yale university, is now engaged in attempts to solve the problem as to what agencies caused the formation of Florida as the state stands today, and when and how such formation took place. Dr. Schuchert was a recent visitor to the state geological survey where he announced the purpose of his latest study and held consultations with Herman Gunter, Florida's state geologist, and members of the state survey. It was his second visit to Florida, and after a stay of a day and a half here, he returned to his home. Dr. Schuchert, one of the most outstanding authorities on geology in the world, has been engaged for the past twenty-five years in working out theoretical problems having a bearing upon the geological history of the Caribbean sea and Gulf of Mexico, in which peninsular Florida is included. The result of his research will be presented in an address which he 's to deliver at the next meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, of which he is vice president of the geological section, to be held at New York, next December. The data he obtains will also be used in continuation of a text book he is preparing on the paleogeography of North America, published some time ago. Dr. Schuchert has been professor of paleontology at Yale since 1904 and professor emeritus for five years.
