One Judge Cites Another
For Contempt Of Court
BY the Assoeioted Pres.

TULSA. Okla. Dec. 31.-A Tulsa
common pleas judge blamed &
"regrettable show of temper" fol
an outburst yesterday in which he
cited a fellow judge for contempt
of court.
Common Pleas Judge H. E
Chambers summoned another
common pleas judge. Leslie w
Lisle. before his bench yesterday
scolded him severely and cited him
for contempt of court. He assailed
Judge Lisle for taking over one OF
his cases Thursday.
I'm citing you for contempt OF
court" he stormed in open court
I'm going to give you five days
in jail. You got your name in the
papers. I worked all day yesterday
and didn't get mentioned"
Judge Lisle stalked angrily from
the courtroom after the TRADE and
told reporters he would ignore the
incident.
Later. Judge Chambers said he
was fighting mad because Judge
Lisle had taken over one of his
cases during the lunch hour yes

The sex hormones. DR.. Witschi
believes, do not act directly in this
sex reversal role but activate some
other substances.
Sex Patterns Learned.
Sex patterns in all human soci-
cites are learned, rather than in
stinctive. said DR.. Ralph Linton OF
Columbia University, discussing
the Kinsey report from the view
point of the anthropologist.
Man." he said. lis an anthro-
piod ape trying to live like a
termite.
"The evolution of mammals has
been characterized by ever in
creasing sacrifice of instinct to
learning ability. BY the time pri-
mates emerged. instructive behav-
ior seems to have been reduced to
a minimum while the instincts
which survived were of the simplest
sort. They were related to the be-
havior necessary to the individuals S
survival in the earliest stages OF
existence before he had time to
learn. At the human level it seems
exceedingly doubtful whether there
are any instincts which are opera
tive after infancy. All human
beings owe most of their behavior
to instruction by or imitation of
other individuals"

NEW YORK, Dec. 3l.-Less than

hormone preparation. methyltes-
tosterone. in a quart Of water will
cause female tadpoles to become
male frogs.
This remarkable phenomenon
was reported to the American AS

Science here yesterday by DR.. Emil
Witschi of Iowa State University.
Experiments with a variety of
female hormones. however, indi-
Gated that it was impossible per-
manently to change males to fe-
males. They will only delay the
development of the frog after it
has arisen from the tadpole stage.

The experiments, DR.. Witschi
said. support the hypothesis that
there exist no purely male or fe-
male individuals among verte-
brates from fish to man. but that
all possess the characters of both
sexes. In any individual. one set
of characters outbalances the
other. determining the apparent
sex.
In higher vertebrates, he pointed
out, the balance to one side or the
other is well established but in

Shortage Threatens
BY the Associotsd Press

BUENOS AIRES, Dec. 31.-An.
other big city has its tongue hang
ing out.
Buenos Aires, third largest ir
the Western Hemisphere. faces 8
water shortage as serious as New
York's.
Argentina's Minister Of Public
Works threatened yesterday to put
in individual water meters If the
city's 3,150,000 residents didn t
stop wasting water.
He said about a third Of the
average 106 gallons a day each
person uses in the city is wasted
New York residents used a
daily average of about 125
gallons each until current con-
servation measures cut it to
around 80 gallons)
The threat of waterless days
here was all blamed on the dollar
shortage, making it impossible for
the country to import needed
pumping and well digging equip
ment.
The minister thought 1t ere
markable" that New York with all
its dollars should have such a
problem.

tering explosions and a mass OF
flame turned an oil refinery into
an inferno in which three men
were fatally burned yesterday.
A near-panic ensued among res
idents of southwest Detroit
neighborhood as 80 units Of fire
apparatus fought a huge orange
blaze leaping 600 feet in the air.
The fire swept the Aurora Gas
oline Co. plant. Half hundred
policemen aided f1remen in keep
ing the blaze from spreading to
20 nearby refinery tanks contain
ing 100000 gallons of gasoline.
In addition to the three men
dead, five men required hospitali-
cation from burns.
Herbert Wright, 80, father of
five children. was found dead in
a cracking plant shed. Two other
employees, Michael Rusnick, 33,
and Arland Murphy, SO, died of
burns in hospitals early today.
