Special Addition: Robert S. Butsch, associate curator of exhibits, adjusts a name tag at the foot of the newest addition to the University exhibit museum, a golden eagle shot by an unidentified hunter in the Portage Lake area last summer. The wing span measured a little more than six feet. This specimen is only the 14th to be obtained in the state since 1870. It is essentially a western bird. At upper left is an immature bald eagle which has not yet acquired the famed white head feathers that give it its name. The entire exhibit case has just been remodeled and the specimens rearranged.

Touch-Up: William A. Lunk, associate curator of exhibits at the University's Exhibit Museum, touches up a display in the mineralogy room showing the changes in prehistoric seas in Michigan and their effect on the state's minerals. Lunk designed and executed the exhibit, including the three-dimensional maps at left and right. Each map was made of plaster with wax contours carefully modeled and painted and topped with a grid of threads to represent latitude and longitude lines. Each took about 10 days to make.

EN'JAW'ING HIMSELF? Ann Arbor News Reporter Fred Klein looks a bit serious - not because the jaws of this specimen may close on him, but because he's beginning to realize he can't beat the sixth graders he's competing against in the U-M Museum's treasure hunt.
