Degreasing continued

[Kenelm Philip]

	The 'total immersion' method of degreasing works fine on spread
specimens. Neither ethyl acetate nor white gasoline will relax specimens.
The only problem, as I mentioned, is getting these fragile objects into
and out of the solvent without damage from surface tension. I immerse and
remove them with the plane of the wings perpendicular to the liquid sur-
face.
