Zuckerman has new assistant, Miss "Sally" Stanton, who is working on On Biological Theory A most interesting experiment is being carried on at Massaciiu- setts Cranberry Experiment Sta- tion this summer under the di- rection Of Dr. Bert M. Zuckerman, assisted by Miss' Sarah "Sally" F. Stanton of South Dartmouth. This is to see if nematodes which prey on other nematodes can be produced in large quan- tites in the laboratory. Some nematodes, a microscoipic ori- ganism, feed on plants, some on other nematodes. The experiment is designed to produce these nem- atodes under absolutely sterile conditions. cran- crops, Nematodes, harmful to berries and many other are very prevalent in the cran- berry bogs of Massachusetts. If these nematodes can be controlled by this biological method rather than the application of chemicals it is hoped a big forward step will be made in the field of nematology. Miss Stanton, who is 18, is a gradulate of Friends' Academy in Dartmouth, Concord Academy, Concord, Mass. and is' a student at Bradford Junior College, Brad- ford, Mass She became interested in, sci- ence and contacted Dr. Zucker- man for a summer job at the Cranberry Station. She plans to return to Bradford in the fall. Her summer job is volunteer work and willtake her full time until fall. "I am tremendously interested in science and I intend to pursue scientific work after I graduate," Miss Stanton says'.
