Mr. DiNGELL. Dr. Dixy Lee Kay, Department of Zoology, Uni- 

 versity of Washington. Under the circumstances, the Chair will 

 recognize ^Ir. Pelly briefly. 



Mr. Pellt. I already personally told Dr. Ray I was proud and 

 pleased that she is going to appear before this subcommittee. I would 

 like the record, however, to show that it was the intention of the chair- 

 man, Mr. Miller, to have the subcommittee visit the University of 

 Washington and I hoped, too, the Friday Harbor Oceanographic 

 Laboratory last fall, but we were prevented from doing so. 



A^Hiile I think Mr. Bauer was able to get to the campus of the 

 University of Washington, the rest of us were not. I hope we may 

 put on our itinerary for the months ahead such a "vasit because I know 

 that the University of Washington and the scholars and scientists 

 connected with it are well known and recognized by this committee 

 in the oceanographic field. 



Again, I am very delighted to welcome you here, Dr. Ray, and hope 

 to return your call in the near future. 



Dr. Ray. Thank you very much. 



STATEMENT OF DR. DIXY LEE RAY, DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY, 

 UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON 



Mr. DiNGELL. It is a privilege to have you with us. Do you have a 

 prepared statement? 



Dr. Ray. Yes, I do. It is rather a long statement and, if it is satis- 

 factory to you, I will briefly summarize the main points, unless you 

 would like me to read it in its entirety.
