      Hundreds of rocks are displayed in the mineralogy department laboratory of the Royal Ontario Museum as Dr. Joseph Mandarino, head of the department, talks with 13-year-old Steven Berdock. Steven began collecting specimens two years ago and is proud of the display he has at home. The museum's collection is one of the fienst in North America and among the best ten in the world.

      Don't worry, they're pickled. Dr. E. J. Crossman, head of the Royal Ontario Museum's department of ichthyology and herpetology, checks two sharks he has taken from an alcohol solution. He's making the checks as the museum moves 1 million fish specimens to a warehouse during renovations.

      But not for us: The Royal Ontario Museum's chief archeologist, Dr. A. Douglas Tushingham, points out part of Iran's royal collection from a book he co-authored. If they were to go on sale, the ROM would not be in the market for the priceless treasure. It couldn't even afford the sparkle from one of these emeralds, he said.

      Nobody likes hearing what Ted Delahay thinks - at least not right now, because the Canadian-born New York financial analyst and consultant expects a collapse. He says U.S. government probably will soon be backing price supports, rather than price cuts. Canada, he fears, is to receive an economic jolt.
