Receives Scholarship in U. of I.
Norman. Okla., August 22.—Mr.
Hermann Douthitt, a young grad-
uate of the University of Oklahoma,
has attracted considerable attention
recently by his original work in the
study of parasites infesting rodents.
During the summer he has been
capturing various animals belong-
ing to this species and has recently
found two or three forms of parasi-
tes that were not known before this
time. He is doing his work under
j the direction of Dr. Ward, the head
of the Department of Zoology at,
the University o f Illinois. Mr.
Douthitt attracted the attention of
; Dr. Ward and won his favor last
! spring while he was completing his
I work in the University of Oklahoma.
He sent several specimens to Dr.
J Ward some of which were new and
later on, upon application, he was
j granted a scholarship under Dr.
[ Ward at the University of Illinois.
I He goes there next fall to take up
j his graduate studies. His work
this summer is merely preparatyry
to the work he expects to do there
next fall.
He has been doing collecting in
Oklahoma in the neighborhood of
J Norman, Barnes and Altus. He
! expects to do further collecting at
I Sulphur. Durant and Alva, after
j which he will go to St. Louis for
| the rest of the summer. In his
work in the field he tries to get a
good number of specimens from the
various animals, obtaining if possi-
ble 50 of each kind. Only a small
part of the animals have parasites
—probably one-third, and probably
no more than one-tenth have tape
worms. He found one gophor that
had nearly 50 tape worms. The
animals when captured are exatnin-.
ed for parasites. If any are found
they are preserved and sent to 111-
inois for later use. When first ob-
tained they are put in mercun:
i hloridi-. [f they an- small they .;* <-
small they are merely put in a b
tie and shaken but if they are largt
they have to be put in a pan where
they ran be straightened out and
the solution i- poured oyer them.
This solution hardens them. After
a few weeks they are transferred to
a solution of alcohol which pre.-'-r\vs
them until they are wanted tor
further use. Mr. Douthitt'- special
work next year will be a study i f
these parasites, their structure and
the relation of tie different forms.
