Those Who Reve|
In Cold, Dislike Heat
Lack Sweat Glands
Scientific Journal
Describes Persons Who
Can Enjoy Snow Bath
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Human polar bears" who revel
in winters subfreezing weather
and have to spend summers hottest
days immersed in tub of cold
water were described yesterday in
the Journal of Heredity.
Such persons have extreme diff
Guilty in keeping cool enough, re-
ported L. c. Glass and Darrell H.
Yost of the University of Idaho,
because they have no sweat glands.
Thus they might take a snow bath
in the nude and be quite comfort
able.
Perspiration is the principal
method of keeping the body cool in
hot weather and maintaining the
normal body temperature When
these glands do not function, the
temperature of the body runs dan
gerously high, even high enough to
cause death. The critical tempera-
ture of life is about LOT degrees and
above that point the cells of the
body burn themselves up.
Only One to a Family.
However, when the temperature
of the air begins to slide down
toward zero, the polar bears" feel
comfortable without an overcoat be-
cause their internal heat is not
radiated away by the imperceptible
sweating which occurs in most
people even In freezing tempera-
lures.
The sweatless condition is ap-
parently inherited by only one mem
Der of each generation of an afflicted
family, the Idaho scientists said,
and no treatment except keeping
cool in hot weather is known.
The sufferers, also, often are I'M
able to shed tears; they have fire.
quent severe headaches and violent
stomach disorders. The skin usually
is glossy and dry; they frequently
never develop teeth and may pe en-
tirely bald.
In Normal Bodies.
In normal bodies, cold tempera-
lures contract the blood vessels of
the skin and slow down the heat
output of the body. AS the tenn
perature rises, sweating increases
until it reaches a point where the
sweat glands automatically are
closed by the body and the internal
heat increases to the point of heat
prostration.
The temperature regulators Of
the human body are almost uncan-
nily sensitive in controlling normal
heat output, DR.. H. c. Bazett of
the University of Pennsylvania re-
Gently told the symposium on tenn
perature held by the American
Institute of Physics in New York.
The tiny nerve fibers in the skin
which measure cold will detect
temperature change of four one
thousandths of a degree, he said,
while the heat receptors" of the
skin are four times as sensitive.
These receptors adjust the sweat
glands.
DR.. Charles Sheard of the Mayo
Clinic, Rochester, Mimi, said the
fingers and arms respond first to
changes in temperatures to keep the
heat of the body regulated and that
the toes and legs act as a Sec
ondary thermostat" in controlling
the heat.

Both Yulo and Paroles are not pro-

Spanish War Closes Amid

to Madrid. Three-Year
Civil War Ends.

MADRID, March %. - Nearly
100000 half-famished surviv

troops in Madrid's streets tonight
in celebration of the city's sur

Nearly three years Of SPANS
little world war;" which had
threatened to engulf all Europe,
was at it's end. All that remained
for Generalissimo Francisco
Francois nationalist was to mop
up wedge-shaped area extend

terranean coast.
Valencia, Alicante, Jaen, AL
meria and other Republican CT
ties had yet to surrender formal
ly and Internationally but resis-
lance there, as in Madrid, was
shattered and the War-Weary peo-
pie wanted peace, whatever the
price.
Leaders Flee.
Their leaders were fleeing,
seeking haven abroad. Their SOL
diers were surrendering by the
thousands.
General Jose Miaja, who STALL
ed Francois African Moors at the
gates of Madrid on a cold Nov
ember day in 1886 and who pro-
claimed that the capital would be
''the tomb of fascism," had fled
to the coast when the nationalist
marched in triumphantly.
Miaja was reported from Val
encia to have ordered all Repub-
lican soldiers to surrender and
avoid useless bloodshed." The or
der applied to the 10th army de-
Tending the Mediterranean coas-
tai sector.
Franco, who was at a field
headquarters near Guadarrama
about 20 miles north of Madrid,
prepared to serve a new ultima
tum on the remainder of the Re-
publican zone.
1t was reported that Miaja
might be rescued from Valencia

Eastridge Fined
For Hit-And-Run
Accident Happened In Edge
of Town Saturday. Sheets
Is Also Fined.

Floyd Eastridge, of Hemlock,
was fined $500 and cost in the
mayors court here Monday
morning on a charge of hit-and-
run.
The accident occurred Satur-
day afternoon here in the edge OF
town. Smiths large transfer
truck had slowed down and had
given the signal for a left turn
across to the Warrensville high
way when Eastridge pulled out
from behind the truck and ran
into an approaching car driven
by E. L. Price, of Creston.
Eastridge and several women
who were in his car, hurriedly
left the scene of the accident and
later officers caught and locked
him in jail. Why he ran seemed
to be a mystery as the accident
was not very serious and no one
was injured badly. Harrison
Price, who was in the other car,
sustained a cut on his nose. With
him were j. L. Roark and H. j.
Price, all of Creston.
Eastridge, it was stated, had
been working in Virginia and had
Virginia tags on his car.
Russell Sheets was also tried
Monday and fined $50 and cost
on charge of driving while un-
der the influence of intoXicants
and possession.
The case of Charlie Howell and
Bower Galloway, charged with
an affray, was continued another
week.
In last weeks paper it was in
advertently stated that Bower
Campbell, of jefferson, was in
volved in this case. The Post does
not know of any Bower Camp
bell living in jefferson or near
