SAlt Lake Phone Call 
21 October I 96 U 
John called concerning the following* 
1) Confirmed that the 39 is scheduled for November only* 
2) Tentative plans are now for the SHEARWATER to go into the yard in January 
and February* In this case the 39 would be available for grid work - apparently 
an alternative grid however* 
3) Plans are presently for the SHEARWATER in December grid work* 
It.) I hope we resolved the problem of Perkins (Bishop Museum) representing 
P.M.U. 6. He is listed aboard the SHEARWATER and has his equipment aboard. 
We are assuming that Capt. u oloway has made arrangements for his flight to 
Kwajelin but I will check* 
£) John is sending Kwajelin a request for access to other islands for our 
people to check the bird life. •

6) Spit Lake is very disturbed about one part of the November report. They 
are quite vexed about Fred’s complaints on the time necessary to collect 
sera and at the same time the groat amount of time spent in the cat eradication* 
^s we know the sera of predators is much more valuable than much more sera 
from the birds themselves. I will write Fred and see if he can get more this 
time. I hope S e lt Lake doesn’t get to the point where taey send an agency or 
military man to collect sera. Fred is umappy enough about the two extras 
this time/
