Underneath the Sterling C. Evans
Library is a collection of various
skins, skulls and skeletons. It is the
Texas Cooperative Wildlife Collec
tion, which scientists use to compare
and contrast mammals’ physical
structures.
Now, new data will allow scientists
to discern genetic differences as
well.
Taking samples of frozen tissues
from some specimens in the collec
tion will complement the traditional
taxidermic preparations of the
mammals.
Wildlife sciences lecturer Paisley
Cato said the tissue samples-
eluding heart, liver and
will be used to examine thedit
of mammals. “It’s like a thn
mensional library,” she said.
Among tissue study tech®
are chromosomal banding,w
volves treatments of the ch®
somes themselves, and
sis — putting an electrical
through a protein sample.
The tissues will be frozen inu
cold freezers which are fill
liquid nitrogen and kept at ...
grees Celsius, Cato said. Frs
prolongs the life of the protti
the tissues. Without freezing,thi
sues would decay and experm
tion would not be possible, sheis
Spring season brings
trouble with asphalt
on Texas highways
AUSTIN (AP) — Bill Ward says
the biggest one he saw was out near
Yoakum back in 1981, and it blocked
a whole highway.
“It was so big you could fit a city
bus in it and, if I’m not mistaken, a
pickup truck was stuck at the bot
tom,” Ward said. “You could say it
was a pothole of Herculean propor
tions.”
Blacktop rarely unravels to the
point described by Ward, coordina
tor of the Transportation Research
Center at the University of Texas.
The former Highway Department
official said “the whole road just dis
appeared” when a sulfur mine un
dermined the asphalt.
Sooner or later, however, every
motorist experiences the sickening
feeling of bearing down on an axle
snapping, wheel-warping, hubcap
stealing pothole at 60 mph.
Spring is pothole season and re
pair crews are up to their asphalt in
alligator cracks — as blacktop frac
tures are known.
There is good and bad news
where the rubber meets the road.
Engineers have thoroughly re
searched the dynamics of potholes
and scientists are applying the
knowledge to create a new genera
tion of paving materials. But con
struction and maintenance costs are
becoming so high that politicians
may balk when it’s time tol
maintain highways.
The Federal Highway
tration lists 285,962 miles
ways, roads and streets in
more than in New York and
nia combined. If stretched
end, the state’s pavement
reach the moon and complete
bit.
Keeping Texans rolling isefl

and city agencies spent tnort
$900 million to patch an esti®:
90 million potholes across the
during fiscal year 1986.
John Cagle, a spokesman fi’ ii
Texas Highway Department
“People think that once a high' .
built, it’s forever, like the : -
in Egypt, but we are continual
building.”
Cagle said an average sttf ;
asphalt lasts 20 years. And To? |
