SAN FRANCISCO, April 17 M"
A sea lion who Uvea near the San

The sea lion Is one ol the big nerd
Utat inhabits aeal rocks, a few yarn

Where "BusUr" that's what Cliff

Spectator can't agree on whether
he's wearing It by choice, or can't
get Uie Uilng off.
Other seals at first shunned Bus

enviously at his new collar.
The 8PCA, coast guard and navy
all pondered Uie problem of what
will happen to Burner now, but
reached no conclusion.
Dr. Robert T. Orr, curator of
mammals of the California Academy

Buaur will get along all right any
