(/P) -- The 42-foot skeletion found near Columbia glacier last month and subject to much controversy, learned and otherwise, since, is going to the United States national museum in Washington, D. C., even if it's only a whale. It was officially pronounced a "rare example of pike whale" in a message from the Smithsonian institution, revealed here today by the forest service. Officers of the institution requested the forest service to ship the skeleton to Washington. Pictures and descriptions of the specimen have been widely broadcast since it was discovered encased in ice on Glacier island. Part of the body, bearing heavy hair, was preserved and led to reports that it might have been the skeleton of a hairy mammoth or some other prehistoric beast.
