Dogs Ahead of Us

Dogs probably wagged friendly
tails or barked at the first American
settlers who landed on both the At
lantic and Pacific coasts, because,
although cattle, horses and other
domestic animals were introduced
to this continent from Europe, the
dog was here ahead of us, comfort
ably established in many a tepee,
asserts a writer in the Washington
Star. Dogs owned by the Indians
were about the size of small col
lie; were usually white and had long
coats. They have virtually disap-
peared, and the Mexican hairless
and chihuahua are the only so-called
native dogs in existence, although
they, too, may have been import
ed. All other dogs known as Amer
lean have been produced from ex-
periments with breeds not native to
this continent.

CHEMISTS TOLD OF
HORMONE ISOLATION
First Discovery of Male Sex HOrmone
Produced by Woman De-
Scribed at u. N. G.

Chapel Hill, April 13.-(AP)-The
first isolation of male sex hormone
produced by women and the astound-
ing discovery that this feminine
chemical is a more potent influence
toward male characteristics than
mans own natural hormones was re-
ported to the American Chemical So
ciety here today.
The discovery was interpreted as
meaning many of the aspects of sex
are more chemical and less physical
than has been believed. The new
point of view is that the important
hormone controls of sex or chemical
reactions Instead of the chemicals
themselves that permeated the Ibody's
tissues.
The report was made by a group
of Pennsylvania State College chem
lists, the same men who last summer
succeeded in artifically making the
