CHICAGO, February 2.-Harry
O'Laverty, whose wife charged
him with cruelty, today answered
her bill for divorce with a cross
bill in which he enumerated the
things he could not do.
"She would not let me smoke,
drink, chew, swear, go to the
movies, attend the theater, play
cards or do anything a man
wants to do-and besides she
made me agree to live with my
mother-in-law," he complained.
He said he signed an agree-
ment to live with her mother
and his wife signed one allowing
him to sinoke-but his mother
in-law objected when he tried it.

EVOLUTION CONCEPT
SHAKES APESOUT0F
HUMANFAMLY Tree
Anthropologist Believes Man
Originated on Open Plat.
eaus, Not In Jungles
BY HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE

Dies Moines, Iowa, Dec. 26.-lR-
A new concept Of evolution. n that
attempts to shake apes out Of the
human family tree without altering
other ideas Of Darwin, vas laid be-
fore the American Association for the
Advancement Of Science last night.
It's author. Dr.. Henry Fairfield Os-
born Of New York, retiring president
of the association. said:
II am entering q field where I am
almost alone. I am adopting q new
concept in holding that mans origin
vas not In the warn, forest, as OAR
win suggested. but upon the open
p~lateaus, without the easy shelter,
without the food source that comes
readily In most tropical forests, and
without the means Of retreat from
danger afforded In forests BY climb
Ing trees.
THE concept which I am defend
ing is one that man could not have
risen-his brain could not have de-
veloped-without severe struggles fol
existence. against enemies, to get food
and to cover his body. Since the
forest is proverbially q deterrent to
civilization, We must find for mans
development q stimulating atuao6-
phere, such as We live under today.
1T Is highly significant that tho
cro-magnon man Of Europe, whose
brain size Is above the average Of
moderns. lived In highly unfavorable
glacial conditions. Contrast this with
the fact that during q different Pc
Rod, when living conditions In Eu-
rope were easier. the neanderthal
man, 3 lower type In intelligence,
flourished. I think this bears out my
plateau hypothesis"
In q screen DR.. Osborn showed pic
lures OF ape and human hand and
foot development to demonstrate his
belief that apes could not have flour
ished In the open country where man
lived. He said there Is reason t.
think man may have lived In the
open since soon after the close Of the
Eocene period, an era estimated us
ually as abe ut 100000 years ago.
II am trying" he said, ito defend
the much despised cave man. ! am
trying to redeem this whole story Of
the rise Of man. and to put It on the
lofty plain where It belongs. And ]
am trying also to show that the main
branch Of the Darwinian hypothesis
Is buttressed by incontrovertible evt-
dence. differ with him on ono
point. We are forced to reconsider
Darwin.s concept Of the primitive ape
man as inhabiting . warm. forest
clad land"
