Mystery meat is out Mexican is in That could mean a welcome school Martin said the government chose Philadelphia for the experiment in part because the school district already recognized the link between good nutrition and the educational and athletic achievements of its students The efforts of restaurateur David Suro also helped bring the experiment to the city "I have kids in school Its not fair to keep exposing them to unhealthy food" said Suro who owns a Mexican restaurant and helped sponsor the chef's visit double-checkin- d after week" possi- bly within a month said Christopher Martin regional administraLA's Food and of the Nutrition Service the agency that administers school meals d 1 : ' 1 ' ' ' I a go in Marino a biogeochemist fresh from Harvard's department of Earth and planetary sciences said a highly regarded and diverse group of outside scientists has agreed to evaluate Biosphere 2 in terms of how it could be best used as a laboratory for research in each of their specific disciplines Their report will be considered by Marino project's science staff prodbablhy in December Then a long-terplan for the 314-acrminiature world will be developed Marino said Marino was brought in to run the project in an April 1 takeover by its financial backer Texas billionaire Edward Bass Since the takeover virtually every manager and executive tied to the old regime has quit or been fired The project has been blasted by many established outside scientists including some who agreed to join the Scientific Advisory Committee designed two years ago to rescue the project's plummeting scientific credibility Again last year when Jack liss a credentialed multidisciplinary researcher was brought in to head up the science program Biosphere 2 officials said the project was straightened out Corliss has declined to criticize the project's ousted leadership in detail but says he was unhappy e with the management's commitment to getting Biosphere 2's science program on a legitimate track Corliss remains on the project's science staff To date there has been virtually no publication of significant scientific work by crew members and scientists involved in the first three years of the project Last year as the first crew's r stay drew to a close Bio2 sphere officials tried to downplay the apparent lack of significant scientific work by saying the first session was mainly a "shake- J - -- -- 111 a' A' t - iio "-- ' - 13 - i i - 4nr"- - i ' ' ' ' Amy court-ordere- d ' k a 5 ! e A B 1 D 11 - ' ' c ' 4 k ' Ark )A - tmse - mnonrINI '''l '' ' ' 1 mrAk stirraczk t vt L rt Vrw 1 peilet s' -- 111N I mhIg sultps At ti r31 '' ' i--y ji41vl vtay '- 14 I to:1 tatii Ft: ''atsA &A t I) leA f E" 5)17) 4 - A 4 0 i ?4‘- rf' - l't ! : A rsr1' It k It k (d' - 1 1174i I le1 ' s?
