Through Roof

     CANON CITY, Colo. (AP) - A meteorite, nearly six inches long and four 
inches wide, fell through the roof of Jack Steven' garage.  Stevens thought 
it was just a rock and was about to throw it out when sheriff's officers 
persuaded him to call experts.
     Scientists from the American Meteorite Laboratory in Denver confirmed 
that the rock was a meteorite.
     Part of the meteorite will be sent to the Smithsonian Institution in 
Washington and other pieces will be given to the United States Geological 
Survey.
