Cruise
Actions of Velero III Cause Minor War Scare; Rare Species Gathered
SAN PEDRO, May 14— (Exclusive) — The Velero III returned from San Diego to Its berth at Terminal island this afternoon, after completing the last leg of It* 10,000-mile exploration cruise. On board was Henry M. Bruce, vice-president of the university, who met the expedition In the southern port.
Dr. Kufus B. von KleinSmid, president of the university, along with hundreds of students, was at the dock to greet Capt. Allan Hanroek and his crew.
SAN DIEGO, May 13—(Exclusive to the Dally Trojan)—The Velero III. floating marine laboratory flying the cardinal and gold of the University of Southern California, docked here this moming on Its way to lto home port of San Pedro.
Returning from a 9-week exploration cruise through tropical coastal waters of the Pacific ocean and the Caribbean sea. under the direction of Capt. Allan Hancock, the motor cruiser was heavily laden with hundreds of live zoological specimens and an equel number of preserved marina life forms.
WAR SCARE CAUSED
Members of the expedition said the appearance of the Velero III off the coast of Venezuela, coupled with recent European eventa and the actions of tha United States fleet ln Caribbean, caused a war scare at Aruba. Landing parties from the vessel, looking for specimens, were forced to submit to search by heavily-armed guards.
Although the Expedition’s boat was equipped with the moat modem aclantlfic apparatus for under-seaa exploration and collection of specimens, John S. Garth, research associate at S.C. and member of the exploration staff, reported that a balled mayonnaise Jar had been used with the best results In trapping certain rare tropical flsh. SPECIMENS GATHERED Among the land specimens gathered were a golden striped Jaguar from Brazil, a green tree snake, 0 feet long but not more than an Inch ln diameter, and birds of all kinds, Including a spectacled owl from Panama, one of the rarest of extint birds. The strange cargo, temporarily held ln quarantine, wlll be turned over to the San Diegan zoo.
Included in tha expeditions findings were: some 215 specimens of birds and mammals; 56 specimens of echlnodermata, several of which are believed to be new species; 700 specimens of algae; 440 botanical specimens Including 400 species; and 178 ethnological specimens obtained from native tribes of Panama and Venezuela.
TRIP CALLED SUCCESS Staff members say that Captain Hancock believes that this trip, his eighth major acientlflc voyage, was one of the most successful expeditions undertaken since the Velero III was launched ln 1931.
The work of the si tff wlll be finished only when t>.« many marine creatures, flowering plants, strange Insects, reptiles, and animals have been classified and placed ln the vast collections to be housed ln the Allan Hancock Foundation for Scientific Research, now being completed on the B.C. campus.
