Since that time, he Has preserved hundreds of birds and ani mals. The den of his home is filled with ferocious and not so ferocious animals while bearskin rugs cover the floor. His most interesting specimen is a crocodile caught in the Santa Ana river near his home. The most unusual ani mal in his collection is a coa ti mondi, a snout-nosed little relative of the ant-eater. The art of taxidermy is no more intricate nor difficult to master than learning to be a good fisherman or hunter, Wischnack says, and it makes an ideal hobby for either one of these sports' enthusiasts.

Chairman R. L. Hogue, Medford lumberman, said the shortage resulted when the SP shut off cars for Oregon at such major junctions as Og den, Utah, and Portland. The committee requested SP to notify the PUC when ever restrictions are placed on receiving cars at SP gate ways. "We are receiving cars now," Hogue said, "but we're walking a tight-rope as to fu ture deliveries."

Dales Back 350 Years Taxidermy, as we know it today, dates back 350 years to India where birds were skinned, preserved with spe cies and brought to Holland where they were arranged in somewhat natural positions by wires run through the body. The oldest specimen of a mounted animal in existence today is a rhinoceros in the Royal Museum of Vertebrates in Florence, Italy, prepared around 1600. How it was done, no one knows.

During a routine collection of hagfish, Dr. David Jensen of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography here reports finding the single albino among some 500 fish. Over the past two years, he says, he has collected about 5,900 hagfish. About 20 of these were piebald with areas of pale pink skin because of re duced pigmentation. Ordinarily, the hagfish (Ep tatretus stoutii) is pinkish to purple gray with the lighter color on its stomach. The al bino specimen, described in the journal Science, is white except for a pinkish cast due to the blood flow. The pulsations of the cau dal, or tail, heart are plainly visible under the albino hag fish's translucent skin, Dr. Jensen says The hagfish is one of the most primitive vertebrate animals. llestle's Chocolate Oars e Milk e Almond Crunch Fruit-Nut Your Choice Libby's Deep Brown Pork Beans No. VA Tins DintyUooR BEEF STEW Uelveeta 21b.
