Simulation
will measure
bomb effects
United Press International
WASHINGTON — A non
radioactive, simulated nuclear
bomb will be exploded at the New
Mexico test range Wednesday to
check the blast and heat effects on
military equipment and buildings.
Plans for the controlled, above
ground explosion at the white
sands Missile Base were
announced by the Defense Nuc
lear Agency Tuesday.
The explosion of 620 tons of
ammonium nitrate and fuel oil
mixture will simulate a onekiloton
nuclear blast. A kiloton is the
equivalent of 1,000 tons of TNT.
“There will be no radiation pre
sent since the explosion will be
generated by non-nuclear mate
rials,” a Pentagon announcement
said. “The thermal effect will be
created by burning powdered alu
minum with liquid oxygen.”
Similar tests were conducted in
1979 and 1978, but an agency
spokesman said this experiment
will mark the first time the effects
of both blast and heat will be mea
sured.

ST. LOUIS — A Caribbean cor
al reef is growing in Missouri, a
part of the country more condu
cive to producing corn than a
thriving saltwater ecosystem.
The reef is the newest exhibit at
the St. Louis Zoo and Director
Richard D. Schultz says the zoo’s
prompt response to a query by the
Smithsonian Foundation made it
possible.
“Last summer the Smithsonian
put out letters to about 23 major
zoos, aquaria and science
museums, and said they might
have funds available for anyone in
terested in producing such a reef, ”
Schultz said.
The Smithsonian has a pro
totype reef at its Museum of Natu
ral History in Washington and was
planning to combine its own funds
and expertise with monies from
the National Science Foundation
to help create similar reefs else
where.
But the federal funds dried up
when the Reagan administration
clamped down on the budget.
Only the St. Louis Zoo beat the
cutback in finances.
“We didn’t stutter about it,”
Schultz said. “I talked to some
other zoo people and they were
interested but just hadn’t done
anything about it. We simply
acted promptly and we re the one
that ended up with if.
“We re just as excited as we can
be about it.”
The reef is in the zoo’s Aquatic
House but it’s not just another fish
tank.
A wave generator simulates the
motion of the currents that wash
over a reef, circulating oxygen and
nutrients the living organisms
feed on. A rack of halide lamps
turn on and off sequentially to
generate the appropriate cycle of
sunrise, noon, dusk and night.
Temperature and salinity con
trols are in a room behind the
2,500-gallon exhibit, and an algae
scrubber is above. The exhibit
actually includes two tanks — the
reef and a sandy lagoon area with
sea grasses — joined by pipes that
allow fish to pass through.

OFFICIAL NOTICE TO STUDENT CONCERNING
TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITY STUDENT RECORDS POLICY
Annually, Texas A&M University informs students of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of
1974. This Act, with which the University intends to comply fully, is intended to protect the privacy of
education records, to establish the rights of students to inspect and review their education records, and to
provide guidelines for the correction of inaccurate or misleading data through informal and formal hearings.
Students also have the right to file complaints with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act Office of
the Department of Education in Washington, D.C. concerning alleged failures by the University to comply
with the Act.
Local policy explains in detail the procedures to be used by the University for compliance with the
provisions of the Act. Copies of the policy can be obtained at the Office of the Registrar, located in Heaton
Hall on the Texas A&M University campus.
Questions concerning the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act may be referred to the Office of the
Registrar.
DIRECTORY INFORMATION
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 permits a university to establish certain
categories of information regarding students as “directory information,” and to then disclose this informa
tion to third parties without the student’s prior consent. However, prior to releasing directory information
concerning a student, the University must have afforded the student the opportunity to indicate that he
does not want directory information concerning himself released without his prior written permission.
Texas A&M University proposes to designate the following personally identifiable information contained
in a student’s education records as “directory information.”
1. The student’s name
2. The local address, home address including country, and the telephone numbers of the student
3. The date and place of birth of the student
4. The names and address of the student’s parents
5. The student’s major field of study
6. The student’s class schedule
7. Participation in officially recognized activities and sports by the student
8. Weight and height of members of athletic teams
9. Dates of attendance, degrees and awards received
10. Previous educational agencies or institutions attended by the student
11. Sex, nationality, race and age of the student
12. The student’s photograph
13. Achievement awards or honors
14. The student’s class standing
15. Parking permit information
The University will release “directory information” to third parties unless the University receives timely,
written objection to such release in accordance with the procedure herein described.
Students who wish to have “directory information” withheld must complete the appropriate form in the
Registrar’s Office by Friday, September 18, 1981. Students who have requested information withheld in
the past must renew their request each year within the first three weeks of the fall semester.
The student must realize that approximately one month is needed to remove this information from
materials already in circulation. However, the campus directory is printed only once a year, and after
printing, no information can be removed.
The student is responsible for renewing this request each September, and the validity of the requests
extends from the date of the request to the following September 1st.

“The biggest thing the Smithso^i
nian contributed was the collec-Jj
tion of the coral, ” Schultz said £
“That’s excruciatingly expensive-
to collect. They had to take a shipj
down to the Caribbean with'-'® •
bunch of divers who knew exactly
what they were collecting and how
to preserve it. ”
The living coral is the element
that allows the exhibit to be a cojm-I
plete “microcosm.”
“It’s a complete food chain,’>
Schultz said. “An enclosed system^
in which we grow algae and there’s'
something that eats the algae and'
something that eats the thing that'
eats the algae. That makes it a real
fascinating thing to look at and a7
tremendous research tool.”
