Animal man
Henry Fitch, professor of systematics and ecology, holds a red-sided garter snake, one of the animal inhabitants of the University of Kansas natural history reservation. Fitch, superintendent of the reservation, has lived there, studying the animals, for 30 years.
The $90-acre tract, about six miles from campus, is a natural laboratory for animal natural history. Fitch says the location close to campus allows many professors to use the reservation as a teaching aid. It has been preserved in its wild state to encourage small animal life. "Here the animals have priority," Fitch says.
Fitch also keeps busy laying and setting his traps. As he walks around the reservation, he holds up several traps he has designed and made to catch animals for observation. The trapped animals are returned eventually to their natural home.
Preserve . . .
During the winter months, when there is little activity on the reservation, the Fitches go elsewhere to study wildlife.

As a result of the efforts of many students on the evening of April 20, 1970 in the saving of furniture, art objects and invaluable service to firefighters during the Kansas Union fire, some insurance carriers decided to present to the Kansas Union a gift in the amount of $500. It was suggested that the Student Union Activities Board seek those students deserving of being awarded scholarship/awards from the gift.
