Australia's skin divers are turning explorers. Members of one of Australia's quickest- growing sports, finding that spearing fishi underwater did not provide all the thrills they wanted, have offered their services to science and the police.
The skin divers have lugged their bulky underwater breathing gear hundreds of feet below the earth's surface to probe the blackness of secret rivers and have carried tape recorders to the bottom of the sea to record the singing noises made by fish.
Then, in a grimmer role, the their way along its cold sides same explorers have pulled the for two minutes, which thus

At the fisheries research centre, at Cronulla, Now South Wales, scientists have found the divers valuable allies.
They have brought back from the ocean bed weird recordings of the underwator noises made by fish, and, watching and photo- graphing fish in their own en- vironment, the explorers have given scientists samples of the shellfish which commercial varieties of dish feed on.
In return, the scientists have given the divera valuable "fish" Information which has helped the sport of spear-fishing ira Australia,
