On Wednesday, October 17, at 2 o’clock members of the Zoology and Botany classes will make a Field Trip on the "Se-Bot-M” boat to the Marine Gardens beyond Cape Florida.
During this trip members of the Advanced Zoology classes will use the Miller-Dunn Divinhood while collecting specimens on the floor of the bay. A representative of Pathe News will accompany the expedition and make moving pictures for News Reel Release.
The regular price for the trip is $2.00. Inasmuch as the boat is chartered for the day, the price is put at $1.00 for University people making the trip. Other students having the afternoon free and desiring to make the trip are permitted to come for the same price. Payment must be made in advance to either-Florence Muser or J. F. W. Pearson.
The boat leaves the city docks, across from the Everglades Hotel, at 2 p. m. sharp.
