Benson, dean of the College of Engineering. He said the overall program involves nine specific research projects dealing with water quality prob lems and analytical and labora tory support for District 7 of the TWQB field program. The area includes the counties of Harris, Fort Bend, Brazoria, Montgomery, Austin, Waller, Chambers, Galves ton and Liberty. The Texas Engineering Experi ment Station (TEES) is respon sible for carrying out the terms of the contract; TEES will util ize several departments and lab oratories in the College of Engi neering. Of the total grant, $176,642, will be utilized for research and $73,358 will be utilized for analy tical laboratory support. The pro gram will make extensive use of A&M’s three water quality re search vessels, the Duet, Mariner and Excellence. In addition, the field laboratory at Morgan’s Point and the water quality laboratories of the Civil Engineering Depart ment will be utilized. In the overall TWQB program, the dean said three projects will provide information and technol ogy for use by regulatory officials in setting, revising and upgrading water quality standards which are required in the decision process. Three more projects will deal with water quality problems in specific areas: temperature, con servative materials, organic nja- terials and others, such as phos phates. Two projects will deal with the measurement of pollu tants. The ninth project, Benson said, will specifically evaluate current standards and provide factual data for development of improved standards regarding effluents from waste water treatment fa cilities. In several cases, the projects parallel ongoing research to bring considerable additional effort and resources to bear on given prob lems. In summing up the total program, Benson added: “The subjects of air and water pollution have become foremost in the minds of Texas citizens. This emphasis is new and to some extent emotional. Frankly, little is known about the whole sub ject. For example, the discovery of mercury in fish has triggered much activity, perhaps justified, perhaps not. The important point I wish to make is that the prob lem of pollution should be ap proached with solid facts. What are the pollutants ? What quanti ties are harmful to people, wild life, and other things? What is the real source of pollution ? What are the economics of the situa tion ? “TEES has worked in this area for some years. We feel we have some capability and understand ing of the problems and look for ward to supporting the Texas Wa ter Quality Board in its efforts to provide realistic standards and to help improve the quality of water for the people of Texas.” A WILLAMETTE RIVER salmon starts up a fish ladder completed in 1970 as part of a $3.5 million fishway at Wil lamette Falls.

(AP Wirephoto) Treasure hunters discover ingots in Oklahoma LAWTON, Okla. <7P> — Two Lubbock, Tex., treasure hunters say they have found metal ingots bearing cross and crown symbols and buried two feet deep in a cave in the Wichita Mountains. The ingots have been shipped off for testing and analysis, but the Texans believe they may have discovered a buried treasure of silver or other precious metal. The men are Bill Ferrell, 43, a service station operator, and Don Cagle, 25, both members of the Lubbock Treasure Hunting Club. They said they dug up the in gots Friday in the rear end of a cave west of Meers. The metal bars are about an inch thick, small enough to fit in the palm of a man’s hand, and weigh sev eral pounds each. Ferrell said he and his com panion found some adobe-like molds also buried in the cave. The metal bars could be from the early 1909s, Wichita’s pros pecting era, or possibly could be of Mexican origin, said Steve Wilson, librarian at Museum of the Great Plains, and an author ity on Wichita’s mining history and treasure legends. An examination by experts might reveal the origin of the symbols on the bars and reveal their age, type of metal and com- BATTALION CLASSIFIED WANT AD RATES One day Stf per word 4<t per word each additional day Minimum charge—lot \ K FOR SALE 1970 Yamaha 176MX, 28 h.p.

Texas Ave. College Station mercial value. Ferrell showed two ingots to reporters. He said “no comment” when asked how many ingots he had found. He declined the offer of a Lawton metallurgist to test the ingots. He said he wanted to go no further in describing the site or discussing his find until he has looked into state and national antiquity regulations, had the metal assayed, negotiated with the land owner and con sulted his lawyer. He expressed fear that other treasure hunters might stampede to the site if they knew the loca tion. The ingots are dark in color but are of a rather soft mate rial that shines brightly when scratched by a knife. Ferrell said he made his dis covery while using a flashlight and a metal detector in a cave that has an entrance about six feet wide and seven feet high and that is 70 to 80 feet deep. “I detected metal under the sand near the back of the cave,” Ferrell said. He said he and Cagle used a small shovel and pick and a small icepick for prob ing, and discovered the metal bars about 24 inches under the cave’s floor. The symbol on the ingots is a crude cross, and a crown or half moon topped by several small dots or blobs of metal. All the symbols are of raised metal pro truding above the level of the rest of the metal bars. Farrell said they “stumbled onto the cave” after climbing in the mountains about three hours. He said it was the first time he had hunted treasure in that area.
