Howard Carter pre­pares lo breach the final barrier between the modem world and the single-most coveted prize in archeoloKy: the tomb of an Eayptian pharaoh intact and un­touched tOr thousands of years. The discovery of Tutank.harnen'5 undisturbed burial chamber pro­VIded an unprecedented glimpse into an ancient civilization that contmues lo tantalize people in a manner that transcends mere histoncal interests.

Now explore the timeless al­lure of a culture in wh1ch every­one, from farmer to pharaoh, beheved that eternal life was not an abstraction. but a natural right. Learn how ~rcheologists are penetrating long-buried mys­teries. from the science of pre­paring a mummy for eternity, to the art of composing a love let­ter in hieroglyphs, to the tech­nology capable of raising the rargest stone buildings ever erected by human bemgs.

Mayor Judith Davis seconded this concern. calling attentton par~ licularly 10 the problem of ._.. ing on Soli Conservation Road.

Unfortunately, accordmg to Aynn. such a solutton for pc­des(nan access between the two secuons would be too costly to cons(ruct-estimated at some $3 lO $5 million ..

Councilmember Thomas X. While wondered whether a round­about as a mode of traffic calmmg m•ght be a po!.S&ble wlutKlO at the mam pedeslnan cros:-.ovcr pomt on Sotl Conscrvat•on Road. (Since the only cafetena ts located m a buildmg on the weMern campus. much pedestrian traffk flow~ be· tween the two sires.)

Mayor Davts suggested that many Goddard employees may be interested 10 learn thai l.'Ommuting to the facihty by Metro will be· ~omc easier w1th the mauguralltJn of a new bus line. Pnnce George's County"s TheBus. which will lake riders dn"Cctly from the Greenbelt Metro station to and from Goddard.

To a question by councll~mcm­bcr Rodney Robert!. concerning injuries on the job, Oiaz acknowl­edged lhat a fire had occurred at one lime in one among the 33 lxuldings on the properly. ahhough no one: was injured. He sa1d that "an adjacency study" was ongoing to recharacterizc the entire physi­cal plant m terms of the poss1ble presence of hazards in the vicinity of personnel.

Wildlife Far from space age concerns

was the continuing Issue of Wild-· life. When Goddard was first con­sorucled. a small herd of deer liv­ing 10 the adjM:enl woocis was en­dosed within the security fence surrounding the facility. By

presenl Cllimoa. the deer popula­tion is now too large by about 100 per cent This increua the possibility of Lyme diS<OK out­breaks. but from the point of VlCW

of the deer themselves, too liulc forage exists. They are "under­feedina:· Diaz said, especially be­cause of lhis year"s drought. and many will not survive.

How can (he problem be solved? Diaz said thai his staff has consulted wtth experts at the University of Maryland and wilh BARC. which suffers from a simi­lar overpopulalton. Currently no decision has been made about whal lo do. AITIOfl8 oplions bei"l! considered is the possibilioy of a conlrolled hunt

Concerning tick conaol, MJoyor Davis suggested they look onto a measure being undertaken with success at BARC that IJ"M)Ives ex­perimental deer feedm. This pro­ces!l has reduced rhe tK:-k popula· tion by some 90 per cent, Dav1s retxmcd.

Currently Goddard's office on the environment is engaged tn drafung an environmental assess­ment of 1ts propcny. Once com­pleted, 11 wJII be released to the pubhc. Diaz. commented that the particular des.i&n effort to hormomze the cas< campiiS build­ings w1th the surrounding em~~ron­ment has made this assessment more urgent.

Councilmember Alan Turnbull urged greater coordinalion among ohe several nearby federal agen­cies. which he c.alled "a federal wedge poup."' Locoted odjocenl lo one another, these include, in addition to BARC and Goddard, the Patu"ent Wildlife Rese.trch Cenocr, the Soil Conocrvation Ser­vice, the Secret Service (which is localed on an enclaYC off Muirkirlt Road wiohin the original BARC grounds), and fl.

A trap could not weigh more than one pound rXX" use any chemicals or ck:clricny. It had to be a certain size and be en'w'iron­ment.ally frimdly.
