It's easy with the Sea Grant booklet, 

 Seashells Common to North Carolina. Us- 

 ing the photographs and drawings pic- 

 tured in the booklet, folks can determine a 

 shell's common and scientific name and 

 learn about its range and habitat. 



For a copy of this 36-page illustrated 

 guide to more than 100 of the state's 

 shells, write UNC Sea Grant. Ask for UNC- 

 SG-72-09. The cost is $2. 



Many people agree: 

 North Carolina's coastal 

 waters are in trouble. 



Rivers, streams and 

 sounds are choked and 

 poisoned by the residues 

 of man's progress. 



But there's hope. Through several media 

 outlets, people are learning about the 

 problems facing the state's coastal waters. 



Coastwatch is a free newsletter. If you'd like to be added to the mailing list, fill out

WRALTV's latest documentary, "Troubled 

 Rivers," and Glenn Lawson's new book, 

 Troubled Waters, are two of the most re- 

 cent offerings. 



"Troubled Rivers" examines the Neuse 

 River, a major North Carolina waterway 

 that receives many pollutants during its 

 long journey to the Pamlico Sound. 



A videotape version of "Troubled Rivers" 

 is available for teachers. The tape can be 

 borrowed from WRAL at no charge or pur- 

 chased for $10. Contact Phyllis Parrish at 

 919/821-8646. 



Like the WRAL video, Glenn Lawson's 

 book takes a look at North Carolina's 

 coastal waters and reports the feelings 

 and fears of the people who work and 

 play there. 



For copies of the book, send $10.45 to 

 Hadnot Creek Publishing Company, 3223-5 

 Highway 58, Swansboro, N.C. 28584.
