Feb. 26 Piltdown Hoax Goes On View: There is still no evidence to suggest that any particular person was responsible for the faking the remains of the Piltdown Man. This was stated by Dr. G.R. de Bear, director of the British Museum of Natural History. A special exhibit of the remains was opened to the public today. The question of who was responsible for faking the lower jaw and teeth, alleged now to be those of a modern ape to make them look as if they belonged to the earlier known thinking man, was nothing to do with the British Museum, said Dr. de Beer.
