Abstract
GLACIALISTS will be interested in the short sketch of the drumlins of south-eastern Wisconsin contained in Bulletin No. 273 of the U.S. Geological Survey.1 It is preliminary record of a detailed study of the post-Pleistocene deposits of the district which embraces part of the ground moraine of the Green Bay glacier—in which most of the drumlins lie—and part of that of the Lake Michigan glacier, as well as an earlier Iowan or Illinoian glaciation. The relations of the drumlins to eskers and to the terminal moraines and rock mounds were investigated. The map shows most clearly the arrangement of the drumlins to correspond with the lines of flow of the deploying glacier.
