To find out, a Daily reporter made the trip down past the woodyards and the depot house on the other side of the Main Street tracks. Here is what she found: By SUE LEINOFF My search for the facts be- hind the disappearance of the mysterious saddleback frog be- gan and ended at the University of Michigan Amphibian.Facili- ty. Behind a door marked CROAK at the building on 3rd St. and William a man wear- ing a Hoppity Hoopfr*watch greeted me. He turned out to be Prof. George Nace, housing di- rector of a unique dormitory sheltering generations of frogs and various other amphibians. Together, we hopped down. Iaisles containing the latest in fashionable housing. As frogs must eat only living food, filets of flies, succulent sow bugs and appetizing Acheta domesticas (field crickets). not to mention munchy mosquitoes, are raised at the facility. The crickets re- side in . highrise cardboard apartment houses. while their neighboring, flies live commun- ally in screened-off cages. Mos- quitoes have their own colony, within flying distance of a pri- vate blood bank - a few Japa- nese quail who serve as donors. Fattening the insects up re- quires feeding them a balanced diet. Even flies in the larvae stage are indulged - with a diet of moistened sawdust, Fris- kies dog food mix, and raw liv- er, helping them grow into juicy maggots. The frogs themselves live in troughs, furnished with pieces of broken pottery which allow them their privacy. With an in- door swimming pool, the frogs can dive off their front porch to take a dip, then crawl back onto rubber matting in the mid- dle of the trough to dry off. In- door plumbing is naturally pro- vided for by the Facility. GOOD BETTER System No 1 include s a Garrard autoniatic turn- table with base; cover and a V-i3magnetic cart- ridge.

Why is t Prof. Nace has been working with frogs and other amphib- ians - among them albino ax- olotls - for about 15 years. His research is aimed, among other things, at -finding cures for cancer. His frog collection includes Japanese species, Mexican va- rieties and plain old run of the mill all-American frogs. His re- search is international in scope. In my searching I had not found the saddle-back. It was not on the shelf with the jars of tadpoles. Neither was it around the corner alongside the juvenile leopard frogs.

If you will remember, the in- famous frog had been discover- ed by a scientist at the Univer- sity of Miami in Ohio, an al- bino but for his saddle-back of pigmentation. They said he was a frog in a billion. He was dis- patched by his finder - one Mr. Guttman, thus the name Guttman saddle-back frog - to Prof. Nace. But recently the saddle-back, the victim of mod- ern research - well, he croak- ed. But before ascending to the great frog heaven in the sky, the saddle - back fathered a rainbow of babies. My quest had ended. I .had not found the saddle-back, or at least I hadn't found ,him alive. But I had discovered his, prog- eny-weird pink and blue pastel colored baby frogs thAt might one day escape from Nace's lab- oratory to leap and frolic across meadows and ride the wild lily pad as their father did.
