BOTTLE-NOSE WHALES WILL BE MOVED TO MUSEUM TODAY

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The skeletons of the large bottle-nosed whale and its mate which were found stranded on the North Shore last week will be placed in the Agassiz Museum today where they will be added to the collection. They will be available to any students of the University who wish to see them.

The bottle-nosed whale is a very rare specie found in Arctic waters. It derives its name from its very large beaked head resembling the nose of a bottle.

The bodies of the whales were removed to the Tallow Works in Peabody where the bones were stripped and prepared for exhibition. The arrangements were made by Dr. G. M. Allen of the Department of Zoology.
