Fish living in ponds are often
found gasping for oxygen this time
of year, because late August and
September are months of oxygen
shortage in Texas ponds.
“During late summer, the
accumulation of nutrients from
the growing season coincides with
the hottest water temperatures,”
said Dr. Ken Johnson, fish disease
specialist with the Texas Agricul
tural Extension Service. “Both
conditions reduce the oxygen
level in the water,” he said. TAES
is a branch of the Texas A&M Uni
versity System.
Microscopic blue-green algae
also flourish, and ponds become
colored on sunny days when these
tiny plants rise to the surface,
Johnson said.
Good pond management can
minimize the hazards of oxygen
depletion.
Many pond owners now have
meters to monitor oxygen levels.
These surveillance devices are
helpful when raising fish at full
capacity limits of ponds.
“Wise owners will check their
ponds at dawn to see if fish are
gasping at the surface. If this is the
case, emergency corrective action
is necessary. Aeration by
splashing and establishing a cur
rent in the pond is the best bet,”
Johnson said.
Twenty-one percent of the
atmosphere consists of oxygen,
which dissolves when it hits the
waters surface. The rest of the ox
ygen in water comes from under
water plants that release oxygen as
they undergo photosynthesis (the
food-making process of plants).
Since photosynthesis depends on
light, plants produce oxygen only
during daylight hours. This cycle
plus the total supply of oxygen to
water is affected by a variety of
factors.
Pond owners wanting more in
formation about oxygen depletion
can get a copy of the leaflet, “Ox
ygen in Fish Culture Ponds,” at
the county extension office.

Prof a pro after 25 years
Working with students is a re
newal every year, says a Texas
A&M University electrical en
gineering professor who has com
pleted 25 years of service.
Will Worley, an associate pro
fessor, came to Texas A&M 41
years ago as a student. He left the
campus for military service in
1942 and returned four years later
to get his electrical engineering
degree.
After working for Graybar
Electric Co. for several years,
Worley began teaching at Texas
A&M in 1956 and has taught ever
since.
“So many people just dream
about the grass being greener but
don’t have the opportunity to do
anything about it,” Worley said.
“But I made a drastic change (to
teach) back then and I have been
very satisfied.”
Worley teaches electrical
machinery and economics of en
gineering as well as a course about
circuits. But his fellow teachers
also credit him with being the one
person who knows how to handle
student problems.
“I guess it’s because I know
where all the bones are buried,”
Worley said. “I know the registra
tion process and how to get a stu
dent through course changes and
other problems.
“Last summer I registered ab
out 200 freshmen and in four or
five years, I’ll be the last one to
line them up when they cross the
stage to get their diplomas,” he
said.
Texas A&M has made tremen
dous changes since Worley came
here two generations ago. He said
he misses the closeness that ex
isted when there were only 6,000
students, but said he likes the
changes.
A master swimmmer, Worley
and his wife, Kitty also participate
in many community organiza
tions. Mrs. Worley has completed
25 years as a Spanish teacher in
College Station public schools.
Worley is also active in theatric
al work through StageCenter, a
local drama group.
“I guess my wife and I will retire
together one of these days,” he
said. “But it won’t be for quite
some time. We enjoy working
with young people. ”
Lost frisbee leads boys
to $1,200 treasure find
United Press International
MIAMI — Two 11-year-old
boys who went scouring for their
strayed frisbee happened onto a
more valuable find — $1,200
worth of stolen jewelry.
Tom Golik and John Hum
phreys were tossing their frisbee
in an open field in suburban South
Miami Saturday afternoon, when
the disc sailed off target.
The boys searched for it in
nearby underbrush where they
found a box containing the
jewelry.
Golik then called authorities.
The jewelry was part of $12,000
worth of rings, chains, bracelets
and diamonds stolen in three
apartment burglaries in a two-day
crime wave at a South Miami con
dominium, Det. Allen Wilcher
said.
“I hope they catch the crooks,”
Golick said.
“He helped us out quite a bit,”
Wilcher said. “He turned the in
formation in to us and it gives us a
good start on putting an end to
these crimes.”
