Campers in the Biological camp on Douglas Lake will have a 30 foot gaso- 'line launch at their disposal this sum- mer if the present plan of Professor Reighard, who is in charge of the camp, is carried out. A special grant for the purchase of the boat was in- cluded in the last budget of the Re- gents, and Prof.I Reighard has put the matter in the hands of the Purchasing Dpartment.

The launch is needed to help pick up the scattered flotilla, and will expedite transportation of supplies from Topinabee across the lake. If the launch is purchased some- where along the shores of the Great Lakes a couple of students will prob- ably be employed to run the boat up to Cheboygan and thence by the "Inland Route" to Douglas Lake.
