The roct was put into the water at a depth of 
6 feet (ie bottom of 6 feet) and was from there 
carried into the shore-many fishes were killed 
Dnc the breakers were a bit rough, and as ESH 
In d to work with the photographer-no amount cf 
persuasion could get the EM out into the area 
where the fishes were-consequently the catch is 
not particularly rich in the number of species of 
specimens collected-however the series of pictures 
taken during the day may be sufficient to redeem th: 
station. 
The monitor’s Geiger counter gave Headings of 
.2 and .3 of a MR (milliroentgen) for the fishes 
and seme of the coral and such in the area-howeve: 
this is much below tolerence.
