DR. PATTEN TO COLLECT SCORPIONS IN COSTA RICA

Dr. William H. Patten, chairman of the department of Biology sailed early in February for Costa Rica, where he will journey as far as possible into the jungles of the interior in search of scorpions and amphibians for material for research work in embryology in which he has been engaged. In addition to making the collection for his own study, Dr. Patten expects to secure a large collection of marine formations for the Butterfield Museum.
