University of Nebraska

No.5 1988 FRONT COVER

The design is illustrated by Jim Kalisch and while it is reminiscent of the old, its message is up-to-date. In the year 1888 Lawrence Bruner began his career with the University of Nebraska. His dedicated service and contributions to the Entomological Profession, the University of Nebraska, and citizens of the state, nation, and world still benefit us today. PREFACE

It is with great pleasure that we publish Part Two and complete UN-L Department of Entomology Newsletter No.5. While Part Two has progressed more slowly than desired the overall task has been quite pleasant because of everyone's cooperativeness. We very sincerely mean everyone - staff, students and alumni. A few individuals deserve a special thanks for their help in organizing and/ or writing: Hal Ball, Fred Baxendale, Jack Campbell, Larry Godfrey, Gary Hein, Ack Jones, Z B Mayo, Leroy Peters, Brett Ratcliffe, Wes Watson, and John Witkowski. An extra special thank you is due for Jim Kalisch who designed the covers and is responsible for the pictures that appear in Part Two.

This newsletter is for you, our readers, wherever you are. Newsworthy events are happening to each of us each day although the days sometimes seem routine and mundane. We do want to hear from you and please be assured that we all feel that 12 year intervals between newsletters is much too long. There is a fine line somewhere in time where news ceases to be news and becomes history. We shall not cross that line again.

The Department of Entomology, University of Nebraska-Lincoln is now beginning its second hundred years. We are thankful for each of you that are or have been a part of the Department, whenever or for however long.

George R. Manglitz, Chair Department Newsletter Committee

i Greetings, PART TWO:

Sounds like a sequel doesn't it! However, I'm sure that you will agree that this sequel is as enjoyable and informative as PART ONE. George Manglitz and his Newsletter Committee have done an excellent job. We have enjoyed hearing from many of you since Part One was mailed last Fall and I'm sure you will enjoy, as much as I have, getting an update regarding the activities of colleagues, friends, staff and students.

Al though it has not been long since you received Part One, there have been several significant happenings since that time. George Manglitz retired this past Fall but continues to be active in our teaching program and Departmental activities. George assures me that his retirement was planned and that trying to get many of us to meet our deadlines in order for the newsletter to be finished on time had nothing to do with his decision to retire. Hal Ball will retire in May of this year but also plans to remain active in Departmental activities. I want to take this opportunity on behalf of everyone, to thank and congratulate both George and Hal for their accomplishments and help throughout their careers here at the University of Nebraska and indicate that we look forward to their continuing contributions to the Department.

On January 1, 1989, Roger Gold became the full time Director of the UN-L Water Center and resigned as Head of the Entomology Department. We benefited greatly from Roger's leadership and wish him well in his new position. We have just hired a new faculty member, Dr. David Stanley-Samuelson. He is an Insect Physiologist­ Biochemist and will be on board April 1. We are currently recruiting for an Insect Ecologist and for a Department Head. Other than these items, not much has happened since the Part One was mailed!! We enjoy hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Z B Mayo Interim Head ACTIVITIES OF THE DEPARTMENT

RITEBSIOB REVS Fred Baxendale

There have been innumerable changes in Extension Entomology since the last Departmental newsletter. In July 1983, BOb Roselle retired after nearly 31 years of service. Bob left behind a nationally recognized Extension Entomology program and a record of accomplishments for the rest of us to emUlate.

Dr. Fred Baxendale was hired in March 1984 to fill the vacancy left by Bob's retirement. Fred is a native of New York State and received his degrees from Cornell and Texas A&M University. At the present time, Fred has a 75% Extension and 25% research appointment and serves as Project Coordinator for the Statewide Extension Entomology program. His research acti vi ties involve insects affecting turfgrasses and horticultural plantings in Nebraska.

The Spring of 1983 saw our long time Extension Technologist Tim Miller completing his PhD degree and leaving the University of Nebraska. Tim is currently employed by American Cyanamid as a Research and Development Specialist. Tim was replaced by Steve Danielson in the Fall of that same year. Steve had spent the five years prior to joining our staff as an Extension Agent in Hitchcock County. He earned his BS and MS degrees at the University of Nebraska and Oregon State, respectively. From 1983 to 1987, Steve held several important positions in our office including Extension Technologist, Interim IPM Coordinator and Acting Extension Entomologist. After completing his PhD degree in 1987, he was hired on a full-time basis as an Assistant Professor and Extension Entomologist in the Department of Entomology. Steve's present appointment is 75% Extension and 25% research. His research emphasis is in the area of forage entomology.

In January 1985, Marilyn Weidner replaced Lisa Lane as our Extension Secretary. When Marilyn became Office Manager for the Department of Entomology in February 1987, she was replaced by Kitti McKee who is currently our Secretary. Mary Belson joined our secretarial staff in November 1988 as the IPM Secretary.

In August 1985, Dr. David Keith left for a one year sabbatical in Morocco where he investigated sources of Hessian fly resistance in wheat. Dave returned to Morocco as Chief of Party for the MIAC Morocco Dryland Farming Project in 1987 and is expected to rejoin the Department of Entomology in 1990 or 1991. While Dave Keith was on leave in Morocco, Steve Danielson was named Acting Extension Entomologist. This left the Extension Technologist position open

and Jia Kalisch was hired to fill the vacancy. Jim has remained in that position and has become one of the best in a long line of outstanding Extension Technologists.

Dr. Lloyd Andersen retired in July 1986 after 31 years with the University of Nebraska. Lloyd is remembered for his work with the Nebraska field crops IPM program and his affiliation with the Nebraska Independent Crop Consultants Association (NICCA). Lloyd's position was filled by Dr. Bob Wright who was appointed Extension Entomologist and State Field Crops IPM Coordinator in March 1988. Bob's PhD degree is from North Carolina State Uni versi ty, and he was responsible for the Cornell University Potato IPM program on Long Island, New York before accepting this assignment.

In February 1988, Dr. Gary Hein jOined our staff as the new Extension Entomologist (50% Extension and 50% research) at the Panhandle Research and Extension Center at Scottsbluff. Gary received his PhD from Iowa State University in 1984. His research and Extension activities focus on small grain insects including the Russian Wheat Aphid as well as on other insect pests of importance in western Nebraska. Gary filled the vacancy left by Art Hagen, who moved to North Platte to become the Extension Pest Survey Coordinator. Art's responsibilities include coordinating insect, plant disease and noxious weed survey efforts for the State of Nebraska.

Most recently, Dr. Ackland Jones accepted a 30% Extension and 70% teaching appointment. Ackland is responsible for the 4-H Entomology and youth programs. He also provides a welcomed source of expertise on the insects associated with ornamental trees and shrubs.

The rema~m.ng outstate Extension staff consist of Dr. Jack Caapbell and Ronald Sey.our at the West Central Research and Extension Center in North Platte, Dr. Leroy Peters at the South Central Research and Extension Center near Clay Center and Dr. John Witkowski and Keith Jarvi at the Northeast Research and Extension Center near Concord, Nebraska.

TEACHING NEWS

Ack Jones

The biggest change in the teaching program since the last newsletter has been in the undergraduate curriculum. We no longer have an undergraduate major in entomology. Since the Fall semester of 1987, the undergraduate curriculum offers an inter-disciplinary major in crop protection. Students in this curriculum must take a common core of selected courses in agriculture, biological sCiences, and physical sciences and meet the requirements of an option (concentration) in either entomology, plant pathology or weed science. Actually, the course reqUirements for budding entomologists changed very little, but we lost some identity and our undergraduate program has suffered. Our graduate teaching program has been strengthened by requiring certain fundamental courses and a written examination over "basic" entomology. All students must now take a course in the biology and classification of insects. In addition, from a menu of physiology, morphology and ecology, MS students must take at least one course and PhD stUdents must take at least two. Beyond those requirements, a student's supervisory committee still reigns supreme in selecting coursework to fit the individual student's needs.

There have been several changes in teaching faculty. Tom Helms left UN-L in 1977. (For an update on Tom, see Notes from Alumni and Former Staff.) Tom I s teaching duties were assumed by Ackland Jones (PhD, Iowa State) in 1978. Lance Meinke (PhD, North Carolina State) joined us in 1984. Lance teaches an undergraduate course in pesticides and a graduate course in pest management systems.

Tom Holtzer (PhD, North Carolina State), who joined the Department in 1977, left in August 1988 to become Department Head at Colorado State University. The search for an insect ecologist to fill the vacancy left by Tom's departure is in progress.

Larry Godfrey (PhD, Kentucky) is here on a post-doctoral research fellowship, but that did not stop us from drafting him last semester to teach our undergraduate course in pesticides. Larry is married to Kris Elvin Godfrey (PhD, Florida) who is in molecular biology in the School of Biological Sciences. This semester, in addition to her regular duties, Kris is teaching a biocontrol course for this Department. We are grateful to Larry and Kris for letting us exploit their expertise. Our stUdents have benefited enormously from their efforts.

4 Activities or the Department (Cont'd.) - Teaching

The teaching program also continues to profit from the Department's relations with the USDA entomologists on campus. George Manglitz has taught host plant resistance since 1968. Although George recently "retired," he is still working and we fully intend to have him continue teaching. Phil Scholl (PhD, Wisconsin) originated a livestock insects course in 1981. After Phil transferred (he's now at the U.S. Livestock Insects Laboratory, Kerrville, Texas), the course was taught by Ackland Jones until 1987 when it was replaced with a course in medical­ veterinary entomology offered by the USDA's Jim Petersen (PhD, Utah) who came here in 1981. Without the cooperation of these USDA personnel, we simply could not offer graduate level courses in these subjects.

Especially notable personnel changes since the last newsletter are the retirement of Bob Staples and the imminent retirement of Hal Ball. Bob retired in 1987 and Hal will retire in May. Both served over 38 years in the Department and their combined service time is greater than the combined time of all the remaining regular teaching faculty. The search for Hal's replacement has been completed and Dr. David Stanley-Samuelson (PhD, UC- Berkeley) will join us this Spring. Bob Staples' teaching duties have been allocated to Ken Pruess and Ackland Jones.

RESEARCH HEWS

Z B Mayo

The list of publications at the end of this newsletter will give you a good idea of the productivity and direction of our re­ search program since 1976. Therefore, I will not talk about specific programs but spend most of this time bringing you up-to­ date regarding personnel and major program changes since 1976.

Since 1976, four research Faculty have retired, six have ac­ cepted positions with other institutions or agencies, and sixteen new Faculty, Adjunct Faculty, or Courtesy Faculty have joined our Department. As mentioned previously in Part One or Part Two of this newsletter, Bill Rogoff retired in 1980, Dick Dickason in 1984, Bob Staples in 1987, and George Manglitz in 1988. Tom Helms accepted a position with Monsanto in 1978 and is presently Assistant Director of the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station. In 1982, Phil Scholl transferred to Lethbridge, Canada to administer a fi ve year joint U. S. -Canada cattle grub project and is now at the USDA-ARS Livestock Insects Research Laboratory in Kerrville, Texas. Dean Kindler transferred to the USDA-ARS Cereal Crops Research Unit, Stillwater, Oklahoma in 1987. This past year, Tom Holtzer accepted the position of Head of the Department of Entomology at Colorado State University.

Despite these major losses to our research program (and Department), we have been able to continue to grow as a Department since 1976. Roger Gold jOined the Department in 1977. From 1977 to 1985 he was Director of Environmental Programs and maintained a teaching-research appointment in the Department of Entomology. His research area of emphasis is Urban entomology. Roger continued his research program during his tenure as Department Head (1985-1988) and we hope he will be able to maintain his research program now that he is Director of the Water Center. Ackland Jones joined our Department in 1978 on a 70% teaching and 30% research appointment. His research emphasis was on insect problems associated with shelter belts. Ackland's research appointment was changed to Extension youth programming in 1988. Shripat Kamble joined the Department (Courtesy Appt., his actual appointment i~ in Environmental Programs) in 1978 as Pesticide Impact Assessment Coordinator and now holds a 25% research appointment. Urban Entomology and pesticide impact assessment are research areas of emphasis. Fred Baxendale joined the Department in 1984 and now has a 75% extension and 25% research appointment working in the area of

6 Activities of the Depart.ent (Con't.) - Research

management of pests of turfgrass and horticultural plantings in Nebraska. Lance Meinke also joined the Department in 1984 and presently holds an 80% research and 20% teaching appointment. His areas of research emphasis are ecology and management of Diabrotica sp. In 1985, Steve Danielson joined the Department and now holds a 75% extension and 25% research appointment. His research focuses on the ecology and management of forage crop insects. Gary Hein joined the Department in 1988 and holds a 50% extension and 50% research assignment. Gary's research areas will include the Russian wheat aphid and sugarbeet pests. Our most recent appointment is David Stanley-Samuelson. David will jOin our Faculty on April 1 and will work in the area of Insect Physiology and Biochemistry. Larry Godfrey is presently a post-doctoral research associate in the Department working in the area of insect­ plant stress interactions.

In 1978, the USDA-ARS Midwest Livestock Insect Research Unit was established and in 1981, the USDA-FS Rocky Mountain Forest Experiment Station entomology program was moved to UN-L. These programs have not only added scientists to our Faculty via Adjunct Faculty appointments, but have also expanded the scope of our research programs. The focus of the Midwest Livestock Insect Research Unit is biology, ecology, and management of insect pests of confined livestock and has two entomological sCientists, Gus Thomas and Jim Petersen, assigned to the unit. Gus Thomas is Research Leader for the Unit and conducts research on the ecology of stable flies associated with confined livestock. Gus transferred to Lincoln from Columbia, Missouri in 1982 and became Research Leader in 1985. The primary emphasis of Jim Petersen's research is biological control of house flies and stable flies as sociated with confined livestock. Jim transferred to Lincoln in 1980, from Lake Charles, Louisiana. Mary Ellen Dix and Judy Pasek are entomologists with the Rocky Mountain Forest and Range Experiment Station here in Lincoln. Mary Ellen transferred to Lincoln from Bottineau, North Dakota in 1981. Her research is on biology and management of pests for the protection and improvement of trees in the Great Plains. Judy transferred to Lincoln from Ogden, Utah in 1982 and is presently conducting research aimed at developing technologies for detection and control of major insect pests of trees in the Great Plains.

In addition to the new University Entomology and USDA FacUlty mentioned above, there are several other Entomologists located in other University units or state agencies. They make significant contributions to Departmental programs and hold either Courtesy or Adjunct appointments in the Department. Tony Joern has been a member of the UN-L Biological Sciences Faculty since 1978 and is involved in research on the biology, ecology, and population

dynamics of grasshoppers. Mark Harrell joined the Faculty of the UN-L Forestry, Fisheries, and Wildlife Department in 1980 and con­ ducts research on biology and control of the Zimmerman pine moth and other insect pests of forests in Nebraska. Wayne Kramer has been a Medical Entomologist with the Nebraska State Health Department since 1985. He is working on the temporal and spatial distribution of Nebraska Culicoides and other pests of medical importance.

I think you can see that in addition to our continuing research programs, our Departmental research programs have grown considerable since the last Newsletter was published in 1976.

MUSEUM REVS Brett C. Ratcliffe Division of Entomology University of Nebraska State Museum

Our systematic entomology collections now number about 1.75 million specimens from all over the world -- quite a difference from their humble prairie beginnings 110 years ago. These collections rank among the top 20 in North America in size of holdings. They are used extensively by the scholarly research community to study insect and arachnid biodiversity. In fact, if all of our loaned material was returned at the same time, we probably would not have room to house it.

The collections, located in Nebraska Hall on the City Campus, continue to grow as a result of local collecting by both professional and amateur entomologists. Every once in awhile a gift of specimens is presented. Some of our recent gifts of note were former chair E. A. Dickason's weevils and reprints (upon his retirement), George Mangli tz' s reprints and miscellaneous insects (upon his retirement), Steve Spomer's continuous flow of butterfly specimens, Roscoe Hill's reprint collection, Jose' Lopez's Brazilian Scarabaeinae, and Ken Fender t s (Oregon) synoptic collection of North American Cantharidae. It is interesting to note that Fender, who lived near Mt. St. Helens, decided to put a set of his specimens in a "safe inland" locality right after the volcano exploded in 1981. Upon being reminded that Lincoln was only 50 miles away from one of the Soviet Union's priority targets in this country in the event of a nuclear exchange, Fender laconically replied that then it wouldn't matter anyway.

By far, however, the majority of our new specimens come from the collecting that we are doing in the Museum for various projects. For the past 16 consecutive years Ratcliffe has either lived in or traveled to the New World tropics to conduct research and collect. This has included trips to Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica. Panama, Colombia, Peru, and Brazil. His current research projects in Latin America concern the dynastine scarab beetles of both Panama and Costa Rica, the dung feeding scarabs of Amazonian forests, and several cooperative projects with colleagues in Mexico. Mary Liz Jameson just completed her Masters thesis that deal t with a group of Central American ruletine scarabs. She was able to use her Departmental research assistantship largely in the Museum, thus giving the Department its first student in systematic entomology in over ten years.

9 Activities or the Dept. (Cont'd.) - Museum

In 1984 we secured a $25,000 grant from the Institute of Museum Services, a federal agency, to upgrade the storage facilities for the pinned collection. This involved the purchase of new cabinets and unit trays, and the subsequent change in the arrangement of the collection from an alphabetical system to a npseu~0phylogeneticn or catalog arrangement. In 1987 a second IMS grant was secured in the amount of $10,000 to upgrade and curate the fluid holdings in the Division. New cabinets, unit trays, vials, ahu stoppers were purchased and a new system of arrangement and labeling has made the material in the collection far more accessible than previously. The fluid collection has grown significantly in the past four years because of the deposition of large amounts of material by the Nebraska Department of Environmental Control as a result of their water quality surveys.

The reprint collection now numbers approximately 10,000 titles concerning mostly systematic entomology. Card files completely cross index the holdings by author and subject, and the reprints themselves are housed alphabetically by author. Our ultimate goal is to get the titles and subjects of the reprint collection computerized for research and rapid retrieval of information. We want to extend this to the collections as well in order to know what we have, where it is in the collections, the collecting data associated with it, and its loan history. But first we need a computer.

The Systematics Research Collections of the Museum hold an open house every October where all the divisions have some of their most spectacular treasures on display. The Division of Entomology is one of the more popular collections visited by the public due to both the beauty and unfamiliarity of insects to most of the lay public. A major temporary display on insect coloration was held in the Spring of 1985 in the Museum's public galleries in Morrill Hall. Morrill Hall is now undergoing a $4.5 million renovation scheduled for completion at the end of 1989. Our ul timate goal is to have several displays devoted to insects and their biology.

THE LAWRENCE BRUNER ENTOMOLOGY CLUB REVS

Wes Watson

Most of the Bruner Club members are students, although club membership is open to anyone with an interest in entomology. Presently the club has 25 members. The Bruner Club was established to "foster interest and understanding in the science of entomology and related fields." The club members promote entomology to the community through various public oriented services. Members have been involved with entomology presentations to public schools, the State Fair, 4-H annual conferences, and for other special groups. Club members assist extension personnel with the FFA competition, and tutor students in the introductory entomology classes. Socially the Bruner Club helps strengthen the relationships between students, faculty, and staff through planned social and recreational events. The Bruner Entomology Club funding comes through various enterprises including T-shirt and hat sales, and honey sales to the UN-L Dairy Store.

Current Club Officers are:

ENTOMOLOGY AT THE RESEARCH 1RD EXTENSION CENTERS

SOUTH CENTRAL RESEARCH 1RD EXTENSION REVS

Leroy L. Peters Clay Center, Nebraska

The South Central Research and Extension Center (SEREC) is the newest of the Uni versi ty' s Out-State Centers and serves 20 South Central Nebraska counties. It was established in 1968 and an entomologist (me) was hired in 1972. The entomologist's appointment is 50% research and 50% extension.

My research program has covered such insects as sorghum greenbug (control), corn rootworm (larval control), and chinch bug (control) on corn and sorghum. I also participated in the Burlington Northern Foundation Water Quality Project at SCREC, working on the movement of insecticides through the soil.

The extension entomology program at SCREC covers all aspects of people's problems with insects. How to control, when not to control, etc. I'm also responsible for the State-wide program on stored product insects, which gets me out of the Center from time­ to-time.

PANH1RDLE RESEARCH 1RD EXTENSION REVS

Gary L. Hein Scottsbluff, Nebraska

The extension entomology program in the Panhandle focuses on several of the main crops grown in this area. The major crops grown in the irrigated areas of the Panhandle are sugarbeets, dry beans and corn. The main dryland crop is wheat, with significant acres of millet also being grown. Rangeland is also a very important part of agriculture in the Panhandle. Some emphasis is also being placed on vegetable production.

Research efforts are currently being focused on wheat and sugarbeets. Research into the Russian wheat aphid is underway, with studies into insects response to several cultural practices in the area and into developing economic thresholds for this insect. The sugarbeet root maggot is a sporadic insect in the Panhandle, but the resulting damage is devastating. Research into trying to identify where this insect will be a problem and how to manage it are underway. An additional insect, the sugarbeet root aphid, is of unknown importance in sugarbeet production. Research to determine its impact on sugarbeet production is underway.

John F. Witkowski Concord, Nebraska

The Northeast Research and Extension Center was established in 1956 by virtue of the gift to the University of Nebraska of a 320 acre farm by the C. D. Haskell family. Al though Agronomy, Animal Science, Forestry, and a few other positions were in place by 1960, an Entomology pOSition (50/50 research/extension) was not established until 1975. An Integrated Pest Management extension assistant position was established in 1978. Both positions are presently filled by their initial appointees, John Witkowski and Keith Jarvi, respectively.

13 Activities or the Dept. (Cont'd.) - Research and Extension Centers

The two positions form the nucleus of a comprehensive entomology research and extension program directed at meeting the needs of Nebraska agriculture and specifically the needs of local clientele. The Entomology extension position description dictates providing leadership in developing district programs in insect pest management with major emphasis in the area of pests on corn, forage legumes and soybeans, with minor emphasis on livestock and urban insect problems. The research appointment carries responsibilities to develop applied research programs on corn insects and insects affecting forage legumes and soybeans. This program has evolved into a comprehensive program investigating the biology and control of the European corn borer, bean leaf beetle and other selected insects of Northeast Nebraska.

The Integrated Pest Management (IPM) position is part of a statewide federally funded project stressing education in IPM techniques. The major focus of the program has been to encourage clientele to use field and feedlot scouting as a primary source of information for pest management decision making. Clientele are trained in scouting methods in lab sessions and in follow-up field sessions. Information on pest conditions are distributed through a variety of media sources. Although classified a 100% extension position, research is conducted on corn rootworms and bean leaf beetles.

LIDAED GAMES TEAM NEWS

Larry Godfrey, Coach

The Linnaean Games is a question/answer competition among graduate student teams from the Entomology Departments at the ESA meetings. The friendly competition started in the North Central Branch in 1982. In 1983, the Linnaean Games started at the National ESA meeting among representatives from the branches.

The Nebraska team has competed annually at the NCB-ESA Linnaean Games. In 1988, our team, comprised of Rich Clopton, Barry Pawson, Wes Watson, and Tom Weissling (with Frank Shotkoski as alternate), finished second in the NCB-ESA competition. The Cornhuskers defeated Kansas State in the first round and lost to Minnesota in the finals. The second place finish earned our team an opportunity to compete at the National ESA meeting in November 1988. The team, with Matt Byers and Krista Hanner substituting for Tom Weissling and Frank Shotkoski , respectively, lost a first round game in a close battle with Texas A&M. "Win or lose" the Nebraska team always proved to be the most entertaining. The NCB­ ESA meeting in March 1989 will be the next Linnaean Games competition.

The Cornhuskers Team that we're particularly proud of.

ROGD GOLD MOVES UP

As was reported in Part One of this newsletter, Dr. Roger E. Gold was appointed Interim Director of the Water Center on July 1, 1988. At the time of that interim appointment its duration was announced as one year. However, Roger did such a good job that before the end of 1988 the Board of Regents had taken action to make his new position permanent and in addition named him as Director of Environmental Programs. Roger was associated with the Department since 1977 and was Head since 1985. We shall miss the close associations we had with Roger in the past. We wish him well in his new assignment and expect great things to happen with the Water Center and Environmental Programs under his leadership.

16 RECENT RE'tlREHENTS

GEORGE R. HARGLITZ retired on September 2, 1988 with 38 years of federal service, the last 30 being served in the Department of Entomology UN-L. George was a research entomologist with USDA-ARS and concurrently an Adjunct Professor. George and Henry Stevens (see below) moved into the forage insect laboratory upon its completion in July of 1958 and worked there until their retirement. George's research covered most of the insects attacking forage crops but with an emphasis on controlling those insects by utilizing host plant resistance. He began teaching "insect control by host plant resistance" on alternate Falls in 1968 and has continued this teaching, even past his USDA retirement. His present position as Chairman of the Department Newsletter Committee strongly indicates his desire to continue an active association with the Department.

Henry Stevens (left) and George Manglitz at the retirement reception held for Henry on December 19, 1988 at the East Campus Union.

BERRY J. STEVENS retired on December 31, 1988 with 32 years of federal service, the last 30 being served in the Department of Entomology UN-L. Henry was an agricultural research technician for insects with USDA-ARS at the forage insect laboratory (see above). Henry counted a fantastic number of insects during his 30 years at FIL but will be remembered even more for his tremendous store of practical knowledge which enabled him to design and build just the right cage or piece of equipment which was always being needed by George, other faculty and students working at FIL. Countless numbers of seed were planted by Henry, both in the field and in the greenhouse and he took great pride in maintaining plants, insects and buildings. Henry's working environment has shifted off campus, but we expect him to be an occasional visitor for years to come.

17 Recent Retirements (Cont'd.)

WILLIAM H. -BILL- ROGOFF is not a very recent retiree but mention of his April 12, 1980 retirement was inadvertently omitted from Part One. Most of Bill's illustrious career was completed prior to joining our staff in 1978. Nevertheless, we are proud of Bill and fondly remember his brief association with us. After obtaining a BS from the University of Connecticut, a MS from Yale, and a PhD from Cornell Bill served as a medical entomologist with the US Navy, in the South Pacific, during WW II. Post war service began with the University of California, then South Dakota State University and finally USDA- ARS. It was a USDA transfer that brought Bill to Lincoln when the Livestock Research Unit was re-established here. Bill's career was capped in 1982 when he was the recipient of the ARPE Distinguished Award recognizing his distinguished service to professional entomology. For several years after his retirement Bill was frequently on campus and at his desk. He and his wife Esther subsequently moved to California.

Fred Baxendale, Assistant Professor and Extension Specialist: I was raised in Upstate New York and received my degrees at Cornell University and Texas A&M. I am married to the former Joan R. Brazington and have two children, Heather and Michael. My hobbies include, but are not limited to, gardening, camping, running, photography, woodworking and refinishing antique furniture. I also spend a considerable amount of time attempting to keep the elements on the outside of my home, a structure which lends new meaning to the phrase "handyman special".

Since joining the Department as an Extension Specialist in March 1984, nearly 60% of my efforts have been devoted to field crops Entomology. Other areas of emphasis have included horticultural entomology including the Backyard Farmer program, 4-H and youth programming and apiculture. From August 1985 until September 1986 (while Dave Keith was in Morocco) and again beginning in August 1987, I assumed the role of Project Coordinator for the State Extension Entomology program. In July 1988, my

23 Personal Notes (Cont'd.) - Starr

appointment was changed to include a 25% research component. My research involves the development of integrated pest management strategies for the insect and mite pests associated with turfgrasses and horticultural plantings in Nebraska.

I design and construct research equipment and for several years have designed and built furniture for the offices and labs in the Department including Entomology, Environmental Programs and the USDA area of the Department.

Larry Godrrey, Research Associate: In my "spare time," I participate in several sports with basketball and racquetball being the primary ones. I also enjoy macro photography, stained glass art, and refurbishing antiques. My wife, Kris, along with our big dog, enjoy taking vacations to the mountains, particularly the Colorado mountains and the "mountains" of beautiful southern Indiana. I enjoy doing a little insect collecting at these various locales.

The majority of my Departmental time is spent conducting research in the applied insect ecology area. I am particularly interested in the interactions among the European corn borer, drought stress and the corn plant. I also taught the Introduction to Pesticides and Their Use class in the Fall 1988.

Roger E. Gold, Director or the Vater Center and Environ.ental Programs: Interests outside of entomology include: sports (golf, softball), fishing (both locally as well as in Canada), hunting (birds and big game), restoration of cars (antique and sports models), and the practice of Magic. JUlia and I have three sons, Shane, Ryan and Christopher.

One of the highlights of our recent past is that Julia designed and had built our new home. This was quite an undertaking, but we are now settling into the new "home place."

My interest in urban entomology continues, primarily with involvements of graduate students. Our research has emphasized the control of cockroaches, but a recent development has led our group to work with chigger mites. A portion of our research continues with pesticide exposure evaluation, and laundering procedures to remove pesticides from protective apparel. My new assignment as Director for the Water Center has been challenging and time consuming, but my interests in entomology is kept ali ve, primarily through my technician and students. I

From 1972-1984 my primary research responsibilities included supervising the Entomology Field Laboratory at Mead, Nebraska; and research studies emphasized the development of biological, ecological, and management information for soil inhabiting arthropods associated with corn production, particularly corn rootworms. The overall goal of the program was to develop information to include in a comprehensive Integrated Pest Management program. In 1984, I returned to my original area of research training, insect genetics. My present research program deals with genetic factors involved in the development of new aphid biotypes and insecticide resistant strains of aphids with emphasis on the greenbug. My teaching responsibilities include an Introductory Insect Pest Management course and participation in the Department Graduate Program.

Research: Current emphasis has been placed on the ecology and management of Diabrotica species. The concept of encapsulating volatile corn rootworm (CRW) semiochemical/insecticide mixtures in starch matrices and then utilizing the resultant slow release granular formulations to suppress beetle populations is being studied. The ultimate goal is to utilize CRW behavior to develop new, more biorational CRW management programs. The biology and distribution of D. longicornis is being studied and cuticular hydrocarbon analysis is being utilized to develop a diagnostic tool to separate the sibling species D. longicornis and Q. barberi. Factors that interact with CRW larval damage to determine final corn yield are also being studied. In collaboration with other scientists, simulation models are being developed to quantify the effects of CRW damage on corn yield under various conditions. A project has been initiated in collaboration with the state IPM program to improve adult CRW scouting procedures and CRW insecticide treatment thresholds in different areas of Nebraska.

It's been eight years since I left East Campus and the Entomology Dept. They have gone by quickly.

I joined Iowa State Uni versi ty Extension field staff after receiving my MS I was stationed at Davenport and involved with the IPM program in seven counties along the Mississippi River. Not only did I supervise various Extension IPM field projects but also worked cooperative projects with Dow Chemical Co. and APHIS. All this lasted 3 1/2 years.

I then transferred from Davenport to Council Bluffs in and assumed Area Crop Production SpeCialist duties covering 10 counties in Southwest Iowa. At this time one of the Davenport secretaries and I thought it would be a good idea if she came along. She did. Angie, 19, and Mike, 14, also made the trip. We Iive in a small bedroom community near Council Bluffs - Treynor. I have become very entrenched in the American Way. Marriage, kids, house, two cars, mowing the lawn, painting the house, remodeling, shingling, plumbing, school programs, junior and senior high sports, braces, family dog (spoiled), so on and so forth. Angie is now a freshman at the Uni v. of Northern Iowa and Mike is quarterback for his eighth grade football team. It I S been interesting. I have also joined the Treynor Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department. It takes a lot of time and the hours can be disagreeable, but it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. In Extension you think, you believe, you're helping people. With the fire and rescue I know I am.

from Council Bluffs to Atlantic and the area I cover grew from 10 to 18 counties. Through all this we have stayed in Treynor and I simply commute.

Since I left UN-L I have been drifting further and further away from insects getting more involved in the total picture of ag production. I have found it more interesting this way, putting all the pieces together rather than dealing with a singular piece. I have learned a lot in the last eight years from the diversity and this keeps the interest level high. Recently, I, a county agent and two people with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service received a competitive grant from the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture. So for the next two to three years I'll be evaluating various aspects of low input farming at DeSoto National Wildlife Refuge. There are not very many places you can listen to geese fly overhead while pulling a soil sample or harvesting a corn plant. I think I'll like this one.

Other than work, I've gotten into woodworking and am slowly teaching myself to build furniture. Also I build, fly and crash radio controlled airplanes.

It was a very pleasant surprise to receive Part One of the Entomology Newsletter and I will be looking forward to Part Two. Seeing the pictures and reading about old friends was great and I applaud all the effort that has gone into the publication.

As most of you know, I returned to work in 1984 in the Dept. of Ag Economics and retired from there in May of 1987. Since then I have been helping my son who purchased the Wahoo Newspaper and also finding time for golf and taking trips here and there.

My best wishes go out to all of you and continued success in the Department of Entomology.

Right now at work I'm busy with budget bat tIes and marketing of extension programs. We got Russian wheat aphid in the Fall of 1987 - it should be interesting to see how this develops here.

OUtside of work my major interests after my family are the early history of the Pacific Northwest, backpacking in the Eagle Cap Wilderness, fishing for trout, steelhead and salmon, hunting pheasants, hunting grouse and hunting elk. The quality of the paradise we live in is evidenced by the fact that we had a young mountain lion 1 block from our house in town last year.

Congratulations to the Newsletter Committee for the excellent quality of Part One. I look forward to receiving Part Two. Your effort in completing a newsletter, which always seems to end up as a much more arduous task than one anticipates, is appreciated by those of us who are former students. I received the last issue of the Newsletter in 1976 while at the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines. Newsletter No. 5 found me in the bayous in 'cajun country' where we have resided since 1985. A part of us is still on the 'Ag Campus' in the form of our daughter Shawn who is a grad student in Home Economics.

As a freshman Entomology major during the 1939-40 academic year, I worked in the Dept. as a NYA program leader. The summer of 1940 found me joining Roscoe Hill at the then Scottsbluff Exp. Station for what else but to assist in potato flea beetle research. It soon became apparent that Roscoe lacked or professed to lack the necessary mechanical skills to maintain the spray equipment. That fell to me and thus I became convinced that the engineering profession was a better choice for me. Still maintain a keen interest in the biological sciences.

Maybe ranching sounds about as far from the field of entomology as you can get but that's really not the case. In addition to the routine entomological problems that one runs into on the range, I also serve as leader to a group of "Buggy Beetle" 4-H'ers and am hopefully fostering a bunch of "bugging" entomologists!!!! One of the girls has received reserve champion at the State Fair for two years in a row and is a real enthusiastic "bugologist". In addition to this role, I also have served as supervisor/scout for the local crop protection district and an the unofficial consultant for the county agent and local farmers and ranchers.

Extension work takes care of much of my spare time. I was recently elected to serve as the 1989 Co-chairman of the Logan County Home Extension Council and am presently the president of the McPherson County 4-H Council and Secretary of the local Extension Board.

Somehow I do really find time to get the ranch work done too!

When many of us think of the Department of Entomology at the University of Nebraska, we automatically think of Roscoe Hill. Through his efforts and leadership, the Department prospered and grew. All of us benefited because of his efforts and accomplishments throughout his 44 years as a member of the Department. Because of the important influence he had, either directly or indirectly, on our lives and careers, many of you have asked about establishing a Memorial Fund to honor Roscoe. In fact, several of you have already sent contributions to initiate the establishment of the fund. Therefore, we are initiating formal procedures to set up an endowed fund in Roscoe's name. The specific use for the fund can not be determined until we know how much money will be available. However, we anticipate that the fund will be used to establish scholarships in Roscoe's name.

Please send your contributions to the Department of Entomology made out to the Department of Entomology Development Fund, specifying that it is to be used to develop a Memorial Fund for Roscoe E. Hill. Once we have about five thousand dollars in the fund, we can set up a separate special endowed fund in Roscoe's name.

This fund will greatly enhance our educational efforts and will also be an excellent opportunity to honor Roscoe for his accomplishments in making us a high quality Department of Entomology.

55 FlBAL THOUGHTS

This editor feels that the issuance of this newsletter in two parts helped to fulfill certain special requirements, i.e., publication in our 100th anniversary year. However, it is not my recommendation to issue another two-part newsletter for at least another 100 years. Furthermore I feel strongly that our intervals between newsletters, of up to 12 years is definitely excessive. An annual newsletter would be ideal but a newsletter every two years may be the best compromise between this ideal and our past operating procedure.

My final word of advice is to encourage all of you who are no longer located on the East Campus in Lincoln to keep in touch with us. Hopefully you will be getting a request for an update of your activities within the next two years. Please respond promptly. Also if you know a current address for any of the following individuals please let us know immediately.---G.R.M.
