Reuben 



Lasker : 



A REMEMBRANCE 



1929-1988 



THIS ISSUE OF THE Fishery Bulletin is in 

 memory of Dr. Reuben Lasker who, until 

 his death, was Chief of the Coastal Fisheries 

 Division of the Southwest Fisheries Center, 

 National Marine Fisheries Sewice. The contri- 

 butors and I feel both a debt of gratitude and a 

 strong bond of friendship to this scientist who 

 profoundly influenced our investigations, our 

 careers, and the field of marine larval ecology. 

 Our regret is that Reuben will not see this 

 tribute.
