Sea Otters To Be Transplanted Along Alaska Coast
CPart I'D

imals life history IS needed be- fore intelligent efforts can be made to apply management prac- tices. In the case of the sea otter, this study has increased cOnsid- erably in late years through the efforts of wildlife refuge biolog- ists. One of the things learned, for instance. is that the sea otterS cannot live except along certain ShorelineS. They need to live in an area where the water is com paratiVely shallow, as off shelV- ing beaches. In such areas the sea urchins live, upon which the otters feed mainly. There also needs to be kelp beds in which the otters can rest, play and hide from killer whales.
 Killer whales and man are the sea otterS' two worst enemies. The otters are constantly alert for them, occasionally shading their eyes from the glare of the sun with their paws to look for the single large fin of killer whale cutting through the water or to spot mans boat approaching.
 The sea otter has so many of the characteristics or manneriSmS of people that he is often called "the child O fthe sea" or "Old man of the sea" The two names are not at contradictory as they first appear: while the 55-inch long, 50- pound adult looks like an old man, with grizzled hair on head and shoulders and a full, bristly mus tache, he likes and plays like a ] child. Although not as 1.-the swimmer as the river otter, the sea otter undulates through the water with scissors kick, now and then rolling over on his back to kick himself along with one foot-his fore paws complacently resting on his chest.
 The otter'S chest also serves as his table. On it he spreads sea 1 urchins as he tears them apart. While nibbling one tasty bit, he is apt to lose another to the float ing sea gull that lazily sWims about the table" looking for an unguarded piece of food. After finishing lunch, the otter rolls over a few times and scrubs him self on the head and neck with his paws.
 No mother of the wild is more careful of her young than the sea otter parent with her single kit or pup. A large share of the time, the ! little otter rests on his mothers chest, receiving more than an op- timum of kissing and fondling. In an emergency, the mother tuckS her pup under one arm and dives into the jungle" of kelp to seek | safety. The female sea otter is 1 also like human mother in that she will not hesitate to spank her little one on occasion. Should the pup, while learning to swim, fail to dive under a crest of a break ing wave, he could be killed on the rocks. Until this lesson is learned, the mother will thrash her crying pup-although it no doubt hurts her worse than it does him.
 Early American biologists and naturalists, like Ernest Thompson Seton, reported that the sea otter was homogeneous. Following the

Appeals Court 10 Hear
Virginia Poll Tax Case
BY the Assoeiafsd Press

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. ia
case in which an Arlington Negro
woman is contesting the consti-
tutionality of the Virginia poll tax
law is scheduled to be heard dur
ing the October term of the Fourth
Circuit Court of Appeals.
The appeal was filed after Fed
eral District Judge Albert v. Bryan
on July "a granted a motion to
dismiss the suit brought by Mrs.
Jessie Butler against Mrs. Mary
A. Thompson, central registrar OF
Arlington County. the State Board
of Elections and others.
Judge Bryan held that the con-
stitutionality of the poll tax had
been upheld by the United States
Supreme Court in 1887 and by the
Federal Appeals Court for this
area.
Mrs. Butler charged she was not
allowed to register on December
Is, 1949. She admitted she had re-
fused to pay her poll tax, contend
ing the tax violated the State Con-
stitution of 1867, a congressional
act of 1870 and the 14th and 18th
Amendments to the Federal Con-
Stitution.

The Midnight Merry Co Round:
Right now the entertainment at
the Sazerac Room has been en-
trusted to Helene Emee, a sizzling
young singer who is not unknown
around these parts. She is not
unknown, either, around san An
tonic, Mexico City or Acapulco,
those being three of the places she
has been since she last was in
Washington. Miss Emee is, as the
song says, thin where a girl should
be thin and well, she is a
good looking doll, all right. and
she can be romantic with romantic
numbers, torrid with Latin num-
bers and Partisan with Partisan
numbers (from "Pigalle" to La
Vie en- Rose" to give you an idea
of her range). When Miss Emee
swings that blond name around
and lets go she really gives song
the works. That man who
once said that Pianist Jean
Rainey had better extend her
repertoire in order to please the
cocktail hour trade is now ready
to eat his words. Miss Rainey, a
pretty young girl bound to succeed
in this business, now knows any
manner of popular ditties, as she
will be glad to demonstrate at the
Neptune Room. New addition

who has been concertizing in this
