Antarctic Holds Treasure of Drugs To Be Tapped

WASHINGTON LR - The Ant arctic may hold a treasure of wonder drugs, waiting to be tap ped
 This is the view of Dr. Albert Crary of the National Science Foundation.
 One of the nations foremost Polar scientists, Crary is fresh ly returned from long term serv- ice in the cold lands.
 In a talk Wednesday to the foundations headquarters staff, Crary said the possibility that the Antarctic holds an antibiotic treasure is suggested by the fol- lowing:
 "We have found that animals in the Antarctic are relatively free of bacteria, and it has been suggested that this may be due to the possible presence of anti biotics in algae plants there. This should be followed up"
 Algae are tiny fungus-like plants that grow in the sea or on moist ground, and often occur as scum atop millponds and other quiet waters of the world. Some are edible.
 Crary, chief scientist of the U. S. Antarctic program, declared that of all the scientific disci- plines represented in the Antarc- tic biology is the most abused and under-rated" in terms of getting financial support and at tracting specialists.
 That the Antarctic offers a rich field for biological research is not generally appreciated, he in- dicated.
 Crary threw cold water on theories that the Antarctic might would hold rich and economically minerable mineral treasures.
 less something startling comes to light which is not now evident" he said, q don't think any commercial uses will de- velop from the geology of the Antarctic"

District police and firemen
are also bound to the strict
no-gift rule. Similarly, Mont

discouraged from individual

But in most area police and
fire stations, gifts for all"
either fall into a maybe" or
acceptable category.

an appreciation gift of a basket
