Abstract: A butt assembly for a fishing pole comprises a generally cylindrical elongated member having a male rotary connection at the upper end thereof for connection to a female connecting sleeve of a fishing rod. The upper end of the butt is keyed for aligning the rod when connected to the butt. The lower end of the butt includes cross shaped notches for being received in a gimbal which prohibits twisting while allowing a back and forth movement. A segment is defined in the butt near the upper end thereof for receiving a reel housing. The segment is located at a distance from the upper end of the butt, i.e., the end where the rod is attached, for positioning the reel housing as is conventional in the industry. The segment is an arcuate segment having a contour for closely matching the profile of the reel housing positioned therein. The reel housing is secured within the segment by a reel block. The reel block is disposed on the butt at the opposite side from the segment and secured to the reel housing by posts.

Abstract: Micromonospora inyoensis strain 155OF-1G NRRL 5742 is incapable of producing antibiotics unless an aminocyclitol is added to the fermentation medium. When such a compound is added, antibiotics are produced, said antibiotics being analogs of known aminoglycoside antibiotics differing therefrom with respect to the aminocyclitol subunit.
