Customs seize 77 SAN ANTONIO (AP) — A two- alarm fire forced the Los Angeles Lakers to evacuate their hotel Mon day night. Firefighters put out a small fire that started in the basement of La Mansion Del Rio Hotel, along the San Antonio Riverwalk. The Lakers were staying there for Tuesday night’s game against the San Anto nio Spurs. The fire was mainly an inconve nience, and no injuries were re ported. Although all of the hotel’s nearly 200 guests had to huddle outside for about an hour, the smoke cleared and they were allowed to re turn to stay the night.

Scientists from the University of Texas -Dallas uncovered the fossil in Big Bend National Park in far southwestern Texas, bordering Mexico along the Rio Grande River. The bones are either those of an un usually large member of a dinosaur fam ily known as alamosaurus or an entirely new species, according to James Carter of UTD’s department of geosciences, who found the first fossilized fragments of the animal’s neck. Either way, they lit the classification of a “superfamily” of herbivorous di nosaurs called sauropods, which have a long neck, a tail and a small head. “Never before has an articulated neck of this length and quality of preservation been found anywhere in the world from the Cretaceous Period,” Carter told T/ic It is extremely Dallas Morning New. rare ” UTD’s Homer Montgomery and his students had been excavating the remains of a juvenile alamosaurus since 1995 when, at a nearby site. Carter discovered e\ idence of the larger specimen. The Cretaceous Period extended from 65 million to 135 million years ago and was characterized by the develop ment of flowering plants and the disap pearance of dinosaurs. The largest dinosaurs vanished early in that period and it was believed all had died out by around 100 million years ago. Carter said. “That would rival the giant dinosaurs thought to be extinct b\ the end of the early Cretaceous Period, some 32 million years earlier.” A method of removing the bones has not been determined; and the National Park Sen ice is conducting an environ mental impact study. “We will do an assessment and look at the options.” said the park service’s Mark Flippo. He said officials were considering lifting the bones out by he licopter. Tired of asking^" MOMr / for moniy? Westgate (Golden Corral Shopping Cefiter) 701 Univ.
