Director Tani Adams said the environmental group, in coop eration with the Texas Consum ers Union, decided to compile the weekly list because of con sumer interest in the amount of ethylene dibromide in food sold in Texas. “What we’re starting today is a consumer food alert to tell consumers about any product found by the (Texas) Health Department to contain EDB,” said Carol Barger, director of the Texas Consumers Union. She said the list will be avail able to the public and super markets, and the grocery stores around the state will be encour aged to post it. “It’s not secret information,” Barger said. “They’re just not making it routinely available.” Adams said the Texas Health Department is identifying only those foods that contain EDB levels that exceed state stan dards, which some environmen talists and consumer groups say are too lax. Adams said other states have set stricter standards that, if used in Texas, would lead to the banning of many products now on Texas supermarket shelves. The Texas Health Depart ment has tested 705 grain and citrus products for ethylene di bromide and determined that 400 products contained levels of EDB ranging from 1 part per billion to 29,000 parts per bil lion. But Adams said only 48 products have been recalled un der state guidelines. In the first bulletin issued by the Pesticide Watch, more than 400 products, ranging from oatmeal cereal to cake mixes to Florida oranges, were identified as containing levels of EDB. dards for human expojJ EDB, which has been* used on grains and cirtrm the 1940s. tocnoL SHt 00 A The board adopted (tj gency standards in Fefe The bulletin identified the manufacturer, the product, in cluding lot numbers, the type of pesticide and amount. that reflect those recommt, by the federal Enviroi Protection Agency.

The book, to be titled “Vi sions in Spring," will be released May 26 and is described by its publisher, the University of Texas Press, as a “haunting” and “lyrical” work that ad dresses loneliness, desire and other “basic human emotions.” The poems marked the tran sition of the Nobel Prize-win ning author from poet to novel ist and was his last major work of poetry before publishing his first novel, “Soldier’s Pay.” Faulkner, best known for the novels “Absalom, Absalom!” and “The Sound and the Fury,” bound the poetry by hand and presented the 88-page volume in the early 1920s to his future wife, Estelle Franklin. ■ger- : A PUG ex He look the volume toa!! a !jf s ^ e . w '^ 1 United Pi Around The World With MSC Travel TRAVEL EMPHASIS WEEK March 26-30 March 26: Preparing For Travel 7:00 p.m. Room 401 Rudder March 27: Import Fair 10-2 MSC Europe On Your Own 7:00 pm.
