Baldauf said that this was part of a continued program of the Department of Wildlife Manage ment to study the fishes and crustaceans in the Trinity River area. He said this investigation was performing a dual purpose; that of studying the life in this particular area over an extended period, and of giving students the opportunity to conduct research on a timely project. One important aspect of the Trinity Bay study is the effect dredging and commercial shipping might have on the immature com mercial species of fish which fre quent the brackish waters of the bay. The young of many important commercial species, such as men haden, croakers, and shrimp, come from the Gulf of Mexico into this and certain other bays along the Texas coast for a period. After using these bays as nursery grounds, the fish return to the Gulf to reach maturity.

He left the campus recently for a Thursday date with the sailing vessel Te Vega in Ceylon, large island just off the tip of India. The cruise ends May 1 in Mada gascar. Kornicker’s specialty is geologi cal oceanography. Aboard the two- masted, 134-foot Te Vega, he will collect ostracods, microscopic crus taceans. “I’ll be after the living materials. The distribution and ecology of the ostracod is useful to geo logists studying ancient rocks,” Kornicker said. He explained that be learning more of the contem porary ostracod, its distribution Bible Study Slated The First Baptist Church of College Station is holding a Bi ble study this week on the Book of Ephesians.

The students are members of the Saddle and Sirloin Club, which sponsors their stock showing ef forts at the Houston, San An tonio and Fort Worth shows. The experience has paid off since the club started the project in 1956. Exhibitors in the organiza tion have returned from the shows with an impressive array of cham pionships and high place ribbons. At Houston this year, the Ag gies will have one Hereford steer, two Angus steers and a cross bred steer. The students do not exhibit breeding animals.
