found by students and their in
structors, which may turn out to
be new species.
A. p. Moran, Ocean Springs,
president of the county board OF
supervisors, tells n and all: 81
am dead serious when / say that
the laboratory is one of the most
important things that has hap
pened to the Gulf Coast in years.
"Once the lab has gotten into
routine operation and the federal
fish and wildlife service has sent
the research traWler here, the
economy of the whole section will
be in for a boost"
Mr.. Moran believes that all con
cerned should work toward max
ing the LAB a regional effort
through the cooperation of all the
Gulf Coast states.
Director of an establishment
such as the lab must be a patient
and Woodworking chap. DR.. Cay
lor answers that description. A
native of Bullock county, Ala
bama, he did not finish high
school until he was % years old,
Reason: His father died when he
was two, and young Caylor had
to get his schooling in between
jobs.
Despite this handicap, he man
aged to work his way through
Mississippi State and go on to
Louisiana State for a dortorate.
He is a sturdily-built. b~espectacled
man, with a preoccupied air. And
no wonder, for he himself admits
he's chief porter, housekeeper
and Waterman as we'll as director
at the lab.
