Caption in scrapbook: Plants on a "shot" island
Biddulph, with a collection bag slung at his side, took from Engebi Island, a number of specimens of plants whose development apparently had been affected by habitation in a bomb-blasted area. In these pictures, however, he is holding aloft samples of Ipomea grandiflora, a Morning Glory, which appeared to be of normal health and development. These examples were found far from the blast area and were in great contrast to some found near the epicenter.
