Young Fossil Hunters. A group of boy paleontologists from Hayward, Calif. search gravel stratas in their hunt for fossils. Every Saturday the young scientists, ranging in age from nine to 20, go looking for fossils in the California Hills. They have found many valuable specimens. Their latest find is the skull of a million-year old extinct camel. They gave dug up enough specimens to be written up in a 300-gae thesis at the University of California.
