  We investigate light hadron spectroscopy with an improved quenched staggered
quark action. We compare the results obtained with an improved gauge plus an
improved quark action, an improved gauge plus standard quark action, and the
standard gauge plus standard quark action. Most of the improvement in the
spectroscopy results is due to the improved gauge sector. However, the improved
quark action substantially reduces violations of Lorentz invariance, as
evidenced by the meson dispersion relations.
