For those of you who get or can get the LOS ANGELES TIMES, the 18
September issue contained a lengthy article on Africanized bees in south
Texas, including information on colony extermination.
 
   The main emphasis of the article was on the activities of Jim Sopczyk
(alias "Jim Subject").  Also included were mentions of Anita Collins and
Frank Eischen of the Weslaco Bee Research Laboratory (in the town where the
American Bee Research Conference will be held next month).
 
   Can anyone get me in touch with Jim Sopczyk?  We corresponded with one
another two years ago (after another ABRC conference), but the address I
had for him is no longer valid; neither is he listed for a phone in
Weslaco.
