Director named for
student services
Joe Wade has been named act
ing director of the Office of Stu
* dent Services at the University
for the 1976-77 academic year.
Wade, who has been associate
director of the office since July, will
assume added responsibilities in
the absence of director Shirley
Wilson, who is currently serving
as acting dean of students at the
University.
A member of the University staff
since 1973, the new acting direc
tor holds B.S. and M.S. degrees

Helicopter OK’D for
BLM management
Use of helicopters by the
Bureau of Land Management aj a
tool for management of wild horse
and burro herds has been ap
proved by a Senate-House con
ference committee, according to
Sen. Mark Hatfield.
Use of aircraft to round up the
animals has been prohibited
under federal law.
Hatfield, a member of the con
ference committee which consid
ered the bill, said that use of
helicopters would facilitate and
cut the costs of managing the wild
horse herds.
He said that hearings to con
sider further changes in the law
affecting wild horses and burros
would probably be held next year.
Wild horse and burro manage
ment was considered as part of
the Bureau of Land Management
Organic Act which was approved
Tuesday night by the conference
committee.
SWOMSI sets
course registration
Classes are being offered by
the Southwest Museum of Sci
ence and Industry (SWOMSI) in

enue and Willamette Street.
Research project
receives funding
EUGENE — Renewed funding
for a project which could have sig
nificant medical potential has
been received by John Keana,
University associate professor of
chemistry.
The $27,100 grant has been
awarded by the National Science
Foundation to enable Keana to
continue his research project,
“Synthesis of Molecules Likely to
Interact Strongly with Nerve."
Keana and his research group
are attempting to artificially pro
duce the chemical tetrodotoxin in
the laboratory. This chemical is
derived from a poison found in the
Japanese puffer fish and the
Western American newt.
Tetrodotoxin is an organic
molecule which is both a poison
and a painkiller. As a painkiller,
tie chemical could have wide ap
plication for medical purposes.
Although 400 times more
poisonous than strychnine, de
rivatives from tetrodotoxin can be
an excellent anaesthetic. By creat
ing the chemical synthetically,
Keana can enhance the desirable
properties of tetrodotoxin.
Also valuable as a probe, tet
rodotoxin enables scientists to
study the chemistry of nerve im
pulses and their generation and
transmission Tetrodotoxin effec
tively blocks the entry of sodium
into the nerve but allows the pas
sage of other ions.
