“…The Black Diamond Bog date is in substantial agreement and tends to bracket Hansen's estimate; it may be younger than the other two because the sample was a composite one, or because the ash at this locality was partly redeposited by water after subaerial deposition. However, there is no independent evidence of redeposition at this locality, as there is at others (Rigg and Gould, 1957 Flint and Gale (1958) on the basis of a large number of radiocarbon dates obtained by several laboratories. The overlying Upper Salt body is postpluvial; the Parting Mud records a high lake level lasting from about 24,000 to about 11,000 B.P.…”

Dates obtained since our last date list (Yale III∗), and up to the end of 1958, are given here. All are based on duplicate measurements of CO2 in a proportional counter. Grateful acknowledgment is made to the National Science Foundation, which has supported our work through grant no. G-2278. Participation of Väinö Hoffren during 1956–1957 was made possible through an arrangement with the Geological Survey of Finland. The technical assistance of Julius Kovats has been invaluable.

“…Even Flint (1971) does not challenge this concept, although he does give a realistic assessment (p. 658) of its degree of reliability. One of the few challengers has been Richmond (1965Richmond ( , 1970, who proposed equating the Illinoisan with the Elster (Mindel) rather than the Saale (Riss), a view supported here.…”

This date list contains the results of measurements made during 1961, 1962 and 1963. The method of counting, utilizing acetylene gas, remains essentially unchanged, except for the addition of some solid state electronics. The method of computation, using the Libby half-life of 5568 ± 30 yr, is continued. The error listed is always larger than the one-sigma statistical counting error commonly used, and takes into account known uncertainty laboratory factors, and does not include external (field or atmospheric) variations.Unless otherwise stated, collectors of all samples are members of the U. S. Geological Survey.
