C. Biolo Catfish are good eating, accord ing to a university biology pro fessor. Dr. Harry Freeman, a specialist on South Carolina fish, says that the common varieties of catfish, which form a great part of the catch in this state, are excellent food despite stories to the contrary. Writing on how to identify the different kinds of catfish in the current issue of "South Carolina Wildlife," Dr. Freeman suggests that the prejudice against eating them arises from their repulsive 'physical appearance, their scaven ger habits, and their protective spines, which have a small poison gland at the base. "Catfish all have three spines which serve as defensive devices," Dr. Freeman says. "One spine is found on each pectoral fin and one on the dorsal or back fin. When the catfish stabs a fisherman some of the poisonous fluid may enter the wound and cause a stinging sensation. No real harm comes of this. The danger lies in getting the wound infected and in not properly treating it. "It should be emphasized that the flesh of the catfish is perfectly good for eating, since the gland is removed when the fish is skinned." North American catfish are easily distinguished from other fish by the absence of scales on the body, the presence of six bar bels or feelers on the front of the head, and the presence of an adipose fin on the back of the fish near the tail, according to Dr. Freeman. If the entire length of the adi pose fin is closely attached to the back, then the fish is one of the madtoms, which are never over yesterday afternoon at President Russell's office to discuss the housing situation. Representatives from all 13 fraternities were to be present as well as alumni and na tional executive secretaries of two of the fraternities. After brief discussion, IFC voted to award the Intramural Trophy during halftime of the Carolina-Virginia football game. The iward has been presented at halftime of the Big Thursday game in the past.
