Film features TAMU shark research center
A Texas A&M University biology
professor. Dr. Herman Kleere-
koper, and the school’s shark re-.,
search facilities will be featured in a
Public Broadcasting System film
Sunday (June 13).
The hour-long presentation was
originally filmed by the British
Broadcasting Company for their
“Horizons” science series which has
already been aired in Europe.
It will be shown as part of the
“Nova” series for PBS Sunday, June
13, at 7 p.m. on KAMU-15 (12 on
the cable).
Kleerekoper said the film deals
with shark research at a number of
institutions and that a substantial
part is about A&M. It includes his
research on the monitoring of
locomotion and response to food
odor conducted in the university’s
4,000-gallon, 256-square-foot tank,
equipped with 2,000 photoelectric
cells to detect movement by a shark
and relay the information to a com
puter.

real Pandora’s box?
SUPER SAVINGS
By JOHN TOWER
U.S. Senator for Texas
WASHINGTON — In Greek
mythology, the gods presented the
first Woman, Pandora, with a
leantiful box, but forbade her ever
oopen it.
Pandora’s curiosity eventually got
k best of her, and one day she did
| ipen the box. Out flew plagues in-
mmerable, sorrow, pestilence and
nischief.
Pandora’s box was a myth, but
Congress is presently preparing a
eal Pandora’s box with the esoteric
lame of Senate Bill 1284.
S B. 1284 is really five bills in
me, an amorphous conglomeration
af virtually every pea-brained no
ion about antitrust ever proposed
aCongress. If enacted into law, the
jamage to our economy would be
ncalculable.

Title I is the bill’s “declaration of
policy.” It lists Congressional find
ings with respect to the relationship
of industrial concentration to vari
ous purported economic ills. The
principal finding is that there is di
minished competition and increased
concentration in the marketplace
today, which has contributed sig
nificantly to inflation and un
employment.
The trouble with Title I is that it
asserts as fact some highly specious
economic theories. There is no con
sensus among economists either
that the economy is any more con
centrated or less competitive than it
was 50 years ago. Nor is there any
evidence that such industrial con
centration as exists has contributed
to inflation.
Title II would expand the power
of the Justice Department to con
duct antitrust investigations. It
would give the Department more
wide-ranging investigative authority
than it has via the grand jury pro
cess without affording those subject
to the inquisition even the slender
protections of the grand jury. It
would in effect permit the Depart
ment to coerce information from
any person, anywhere, about virtu
ally any subject, with virtually no
protection for those whom the De
partment chooses to victimize.
Title III is comparatively innocu
ous, a collection of miscellaneous
amendments of varying impact and
importance.
Title IV is probably the most
dangerous provision in the entire
bill. It authorizes states to sue on
behalf of consumers for antitrust
violations even if the state has not
been injured by the violation,
eliminates the requirement in law
that “fact of injury” be proven with
respect to potential claimants, and
permits the state to take over the
unclaimed portion of the damage
fund.
Title V is a promerger notification
provision which would in effect give
the Attorney General unilateral
power to veto any merger without
any judicial finding of illegality.
Pandora made a grave mistake
when she opened the attractive
package the gods had given her.
Hopefully the Senate will profit
from her experience.
