100 YEARS EXPLORING LIFE, 188&-1988 



If you are from the West Coast, you may know Pacific Grove or Puget 

 Sound Biological Station. 



This is a place like one of those. 



Take care of this place and protect the possibility for the continu- 

 ation of our peaceful research. 



You can destroy weapons and the war instruments. 



But save the civil equipments for Japanese students. 



When you are through with your job here notify to the University 

 and let us come back to our scientific home. 



— The Last One to Go 



This had been addressed to the submarine squadron occupying Mikasi 

 Laboratory. When Costello saw the poster, which had found its way to the 

 Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, he thought tlie brushed handwrit- 

 ing looked familiar and had a friend look up an old Japanese friend of his 

 from the MBL, Katsuma Dan, to learn if he had made it through the war. He 

 had. And Costello was right, the poster was Dan's. 



Katsuma Dan had come to the United States to work on a Ph.D. with 

 cell biologist L. V. Heilbrunn, even though Dan knew little English. Dan and 

 his wdfe, Jean Clark Dan, were very popular, so that the MBL community 

 sympathized as the Dan family in Japan suffered various political problems.
