Snyder wanted TO point out the whooping

experiments In crossing ice worms with
the hardy granite grub. As students Of
worms know, ioe worms live In the ice in
the Arctic regions and come out for air and
warmth only when the temperature gets
below minus 80 degrees. Their commercial
value lies In their power OF covering them
selves with coating of artificial ice TO keep
the cold out when they do leave the natural
ice in which they breed.
But in temperate zones the ice worm dies
even when inside the ice. owing to the heat
getting through the crystal surface and
cooking them. This Is why we see the tiny
streaks of air holes far inside the cube Of
ice resting in a Scotch highball. The long,
needelke air holes we're once the homes OF
Ice worms that have died of heat inside tho
ice when they ruthlessly were snatched
from their far northern homes and carried
sell their beautiful crystal coverings for
gain.
But Charley Snyder ia confident. so he
said yesterday, that he can cross the ice
worm successfully with the harder granite
grub that is rapidly destroying the natural
pink granite of The Bronx. For some
time Charley tried to get some of the granite
grub worms by blasting with giant pow
uer. but in every case the blast practically
destroyed the grub worms.
But Ill succeed yet" Charley said yes
terday as he sprayed the throat of the
whooping crane with IA garden sprinkler.

"Only last week hit upon u scheme to
get at the granite grub without blasting
with giant powder. Fortunately the best
granite grub worms live in the smaller
ers with the hay fed TO the hippopotam and
as the hippopotami grind away at the hay
they crack the boulders and dsgorge the
fragments meaty with grub. from their
lips: for hippopotamus will not eat worms.
He will eat devilled crabs or shad roe and
bacon but never worms. Now clasping
