We present results for the hadron spectrum of quenched lattice QCD on an 1 g 3 X 4 2 lattice at /3=6.2. We compare r =f Wilson fermions with quark masses in the range m , / m , = 1 to 5 to staggered fermions with m , / m , = f to 2. In the overlap region we find that the spectra agree, and that both yield a 1 = 2 . 5 GeV, if we use m , to set the scale. We also find that the flavor symmetry of the staggered fermions is restored to a greater degree than at lower 8. However, for both types of fermion, the nucleon to p mass ratio comes out too high, never dipping below 1.5. We show the advantages to be gained with staggered fermions by using operators nonlocal in time. Using these operators we uncover a second problem: an anomalously light flavor-nonsinglet scalar. We also present results for the r + -i-rO electromagnetic mass splitting and for the Landaugauge gluon propagator. -HADRON SPECTRUM O N A N 1g3 X 42 LATTICE 2815
