Man constructs dinosaur
from paper-mache, data
NEEDVILLE (AP) — John
Fischner’s tools are scientific data,
imagination and papier-mache. His
overriding obsession is to use those
tools to bring back to life a group of
animals long extinct — dinosaurs.
Fischner, whose home and studio
are about 35 miles southwest of
Houston, has found a niche in life
sculpting dinosaurs and fantasy fig
ures.
“I keep thinking what was it like to
see a herd of animals where each in
dividual was the size of a railroad
car, what was it like to see a predator
so big that when he ate, he was pull
ing off 200 to 300 pounds of meat at
a time,” he said, his enthusiasm for
the thought growing.
“Every time I sculpt one of these
things, I’m kind of exploring what it
would be like to see it.”
His statues are of less monumen
tal proportion. They average 2 to 3
feet in length, but meticuloous atten
tion to detail and scientific knowl
edge give his dinosaurs and am
azingly lifelike quality.
That quality has attracted the at
tention of several museums, includ
ing The Science Place in Dallas,
which will show about 15 of Fischn
er’s dinosaurs in A World of New
Robot Dinosaurs through April 9.
The show features nine new din-
sosaur robots from Dinamation, the
California company that supplied
the creatures for last year’s exhibit.
The largest is the allosaurus, a rep-
“I keep thinking what was it like to see a herd of ani
mals where each individual was the size of a railroad
car, what was it like to see a predator so big that when
he ate, he was pulling off 200 to 300 pounds ofineatat
a time. Every time I sculpt one of these things, Fmj
kind of exploring what it would be like to see it. ”

tile that is 20 feet long and 9 feet tall.
All of the creatures move and roar.
Fischner’s dinosaurs will be dis
played in miniature landscape set
tings and will complement the larger
robotic displays that will be the main
attraction of the exhibit, said War
ren Zager, associate director of ex
hibits for the museum.
Zager praised Fischner’s work.
“Fabulous stuff; the man does his
research,” Zager said. “We really ap
preciate him letting us show his art
work here.”
Three years ago, Fischner won a
contract to repair the dinosaurs at
Dinosaur Valley State Park near
Glen Rose.
The experience was overwhelm
ing, he said.
“It’s one thing to sit in here and
work on one . . .looking like a toy.
It’s something else . . . leaning inside
this mouth—head, shoulders and
waist and not reaching to the back of
the tongue,” he said.
Fischner, 37 dates his fasdnatii
for dinosaurs back to age 3, wlii
someone gave him “The World
Live In,” a book published by
magazine. A fold-out page with
tures of dinosaurs captivated hir.
he said. For hours on end, hewoiii
study the page and let his imagin
tion run. When he was 6 he began:
sculpt dinosaurs using dimesto:
clay.
At 16 he started using a cellul
papier-mache material that can
dried to a hard state. He has ref®
his technique.

Cemetery reminds Texas of port
BAYSIDE (AP) — Just north of this quiet bayside
town on Farm Road 136 is a sign that points to Old St.
Mary’s Cemetery.
The cemetery, nestled in a motte of live oak trees, has
been there for 131 years, and it’s about the only tan
gible evidence left of what was once known as the busi
est port along the Texas Coast and the lumber mart of
the Southwest.
Back down the road here in town is the John H.
Wood mansion, which was on the edge of St. Mary’s but
was not a part of the original town. It’s just that St.
Mary’s was such a thriving port in the 1870s that it
stretched two or three miles along the Copano Bay,
with the Wood mansion at the southwest end of town.
St. Mary’s almost became the county seat of Refugio
County. The town thrived from its inception in 1857
until the storm of 1886 all but did her in. The 1875
storm dealt the town a crushing blow, but the towns
people rebuilt.
By 1886, when the second devastating hurricanehi(
the upstart town of Rockport was becoming an imp
lant port. It was on Aransas Bay and much closerd*
the Gulf than St. Mary’s. To get to St. Mary’s, ships hail
to cross Aransas Bay and Copano Bay and negotiatei
long reef.
The townspeople did little rebuilding after the sec
ond hurricane. Instead, they moved away.
It wasn’t until about 20 years later that the preseni
town of Bayside appeared on the Copano Bay shore.
Today it stretches a couple of miles along the shott
and takes in part of what was St. Mary’s The pamf
town northeast of Division Street is known as the St
Mary’s addition to Bayside.
Back at the cemetery, a historical plaque tells thesis-
tor that Joseph F. Smith, nephew of Henry Smith, whi
was a provisional governor of Texas, founded the tow
of St. Mary’s in 1857. The earliest marked graves
dated 1860.
