Arkansans Build a Submarine to Study Lake Fish
Thomas O. Duncan and Robert M. Jenkins of the Interior Department’s Fish and Wildlife bureau describe their $10,000, 13-foot submarine. They plan yearlong studies in Bull Shoals Lake and Beaver Reservoir to uncover how fish survive and interact with predators in man-made lakes. The device will be tested as soon as Beaver Reservoir fills, then stored in Harrison during winter. Duncan and Jenkins, Fayetteville residents and biologists, expect to continue research for several years to answer why certain fish thrive in one lake and not another.

Phoenix Girls Seek New Life For Abandoned Leo Lion
In Phoenix, 12 girls aged 8 to 13 form a club to redeem Leo the abandoned lion. They plan a fundraising drive to build him a proper enclosure, raise about 16000 dollars, and stage a backyard circus and art sale to cover costs. Local zoo officials initially resisted but eventually cooperated. Leo has languished in holding due to overcrowded facilities while the girls push for his fresh start.
