40 J(iurn:il of Entomology and Zoology 



In connection with the ecology especially, more oti-shore collecting 

 was done than e\er before. A number of longer trips were foinui 

 interesting and \aluable. I.aguna at all times offers attractive walks 

 and many short trips were taken by all classes. Some of these were 

 for a few miles along the coast, back in the hills or by water or land 

 for a considerable distance. 



The rocks and co\es were again explored, yet much remains 

 unknown. Many new specimens to the locality were found, some of 

 these were from deeper water, rare fish, large sea cucumbers, a 

 large number of strange crabs and many other smaller but no less 

 interesting creatures. 



As in the past, a number of workers from other institutions used 

 the private laboratories. The eight research rooms were in use 

 most of the time by those doing more advanced work. It is expected 

 that there will be a number of advanced workers from the northern 

 and eastern universities during the coming season. For the first 

 time the laboratory is provided with a satisfactory lighting system. 

 Electricity is now established at Laguna Beach and the laboratory 

 and tent city are well provided with an ample lighting system. 



Ihe tent city and dining hall will again offer accommodations 

 at reasonable prices. The cost of tuition is $7.50 general charge 

 and $3.00 an hour per hour taken. By an hour is meant the equiv- 

 alent of an hour's work in a regular college semester. There are 

 eight private rooms for special investigators.

 ton, Pomona College, Claremont, Cal. (Laguna Beach, Cal., from 

 June 26 to September 20.)
