A Yale Expedition.

A scientific expedition is being formed at Yale to go West this summer. About twelve Yale instructors and students will take part in the expedition, which will leave late in August. The party will make the Grand Canyon of the Colorado in Arizona the main object of the trip, but will also visit the San Francisco mountains and the petrified forests of Arizona. Another Yale party is already on its way to the Canyon. The object of the expedition is mainly to study the geology of the Arizona regions and also to hunt for fossil remains.

Archaeological exploration will not form any part of the work of the expedition.
