BRITISH WHALE SKELETON TO BE SEEN IN HARVARD MUSEUM

From the British Museum to the Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology has come the fifteen-foot skeleton of a False Killer whale, a species known to science until fifteen years ago only by its fossilized skull.

Since then it has been found singly from India to Norway, but in 1927 a group of over one hundred turned up on the northeast coast of Scotland, where the Harvard specimen was recovered. False Killers have the great teeth of the real Killer and live on cuttle fish, but their dorsal fins are much smaller.
