FISH FUN:
Local Aquarium Yields
Interesting Experiences

WHO GETS
THE
MILLIONAIRE?
Four Pretty Sisters
in a Gay Marrying Mood!

By LANE VANDERSLICE
For a fish, it's fun being tanked.
It's also fun being in the aquar-
lum business according to Frank
McCormick, '55, a former psy-
chology major at the University
and owner of a local aquarium.
"My interest in tropical fish be-
gan when I bought a plant to
decorate my room," he said.
Adds Fish
"The plant looked bare so I de-
cided to buy some fish and a bowl.
I got very interested in the fish, so
interested that it was costing me
too much money to buy them at
retail prices," he mused.
"So, when the chance came along
three years ago to purchase the
aquarium, there seemed to be no-
thing to do but buy it. You might
say the fish had me hooked," he
smiled.
The aquarium has provided him
with many interesting experiences.
Last summer he took a trip to the
Guianas in search of animal life.
Tarantulas Popular
Among other things, he came
back with some tarantula spiders
which, for some reason, have
seemed to sell very well at the
University."I'm out of them now,"
he mourned, "but I hope to get
more in soon."
Tarantulas are not the only rare
creatures that can be obtained
at the aquarium. Baby elephants,
tigers, or any animal which a per-
son's taste and pocketbook per-
mit can be ordered from the
bearded aquarium owner.
For people with weird senses of
humor, piranhas, legendary in
practically all jungle epics can be
obtained for a modest $2.50 and
up. "Hardly any troupe at all."
McCormick relates. "They'll eat
just about anything-hamburger,
batter, other fish . ..."
Some unusual specimens which
McCormick has on hand include:
blind cave fish from Mexico which,
having lived in caves for their en-
tire lives, no longer have eyes; fish
which resemble sticks, a Sumatran
catfish which looks like a diminu-
tive sea monster, and a fearsome
looking porcupine fish whose only
means of defense are his looks and

the ability to blow up to five times
its normal size.
Fish Forecast Weather '
McCormick commented that the
recent tornado warnings were al-
so forecast by his weather fish, so-
called because they have bladders
which expand and contract with
atmospheric changes.
His fish come from almost every
country in the world. Java, Bor-
neo, South Africa and South
America are some of the romantic
sources of the fish.
Interest in obtaining a source of
supply for tropical fish led to his
trip to the Guianas, near the spot
where Life took pictures for its re-
cent rain forest article.
No White Men
For two weeks of his trip, he
and his two companions didn't see
one white mart. "We were in places
down there where white men had
only been one or two times before,
he said.
While in British Guiana they
participated in a monkey hunt. An
unusual sport, it can get quite
involved.
During the night, when all the
monkeys were asleep in a tree,
McCormick and his friends cut
down all but one of the surround-
ing trees. They then tied a rope
to a prominent limb on the sec-
ond tree.
Monkeys Miss
When the monkeys woke up and
jumped for the limb, McCormick
would pull the limb away and the
monkey would fall into the wait-
ing arms of their guide, who tried
to stuff the monkey into a bag as
fast as possible.
"Sometimes the monkeys would
come so fast that our guide would
have monkeys under his arms and
between his legs," McCormick
laughed.
In a few years, McCormick hopes
to go to. Asia, again combining
business with pleasure.
"Besides being fun," he summed
up, "the aquarium has provided
me with the means of doing a
great many things that I would
not have been able to afford oth-
erwise."

IFC Gives
New Honors
At Banquet
Outstanding contributors to Mi-
chigan's Intrafraternity Council
were honored for their work at
IFC's Fraternity President's din-
ner last week.
The newly established Rushing
Counsellors Award was presented
for the first time to Cory Randell,
'58, Leonard Shlain, '58, and Ted
Rennell, '58.
Selectihn of these three men was
made on the basis of at least 30
hours devoted to the counselling
program; recommendation by the
IFC Rushing Chairman; and ap-
proval by the executive commit-
tee.
"The award was instituted to
provide more incentive for our
rushing counsellors," Rob Trost,
'58, IFC president said. "It has
helped greatly in strengthening
the program."
Gold Key awards were presented
to five men who had either served
two yeat-s on the executive com-
mittee or had been an IFC offi-
cer.
Timothy Leedy, '57BAd, Michael
Barber, '57, Robert Trost, '58, Wal-
ter Naumer, '57BAd, and Malcolm
Cumming, '57BAd, received gold
keys.
A certificate of merit "in recog-
nition of his achievements on be-
half of IFC" was presented to
Dean of Men Walter B. Rea. H. Se-
ger Sleifer, national secretary of
Chi Psi fraternity, also received a
certificate of merit.
Silver key awards were given on
the basis of one year service on the
executive committee or for com-
mittee chairmanships.
Those receiving silver keys were:
George Googasian, '58, Bob Stahl,
'58, Fred Wright, '59. Rick Levitt,
'58, Mike Jackson, '58, Stew Gor-
don, '58, Abba Friedman, '59, Ed
Zeerip, '58BAd, and Jim Martens,
'58.
Former Junior IFC President
Kent Vana, '59, and Fraternity
Buyer's Association officers Vic
Carlson, '57BAd, Bob Talley, 58,
and Fred Sheldon, '58, also re-
