When someone speaks about
deer. we are likely to think
of fairly large animals. such as
Virginia deer. red deer or rein-
deer. In addition to those deer,
there are several kinds which
are small during their entire
lives.
India, for example, has small
barking deer. These make noises
which sound something like dogs.
Other small members Of the
deer family are marsh deer.
water deer and pampas deer.
Pampas deer live on the pam
pas. or plains, of Argentina.
There are few trees in this area,
but the animals hide in tall
grass and behind bushes. Their
most dangerous foe is the jaguar.
Jaguars and pumas offer
trouble to the water deer of
Brazil. The small animals md

miss seeing the nose of a water
deer. Even If the deer is seen
some distance from shore. the
puma or jaguar will give up the
chase unless it Is extremely
hungry.
Various animals besides deer
keep themselves under water,
while exposing only their noses.
This has been observed in the
case of crocodiles, water buffa-
loes, pythons and elephants. The
hippopotamus is another animal
which sometimes bides in the
water.
The animals I have named are

SOVIET. We know that it has
some connection with the new

soviets (councils) elect the rep
resentatives to be sent to the
congress (Supreme Soviet. 1t

Mr.. Dale had to time and guess

Next Mr.. Dale played the king

led the ace of hearts discarding

Now he ruffed a heart, clear

followed with a good heart. Mr..
Abel ruffed with the queen of

discarded from the board and
now all the defenders could get

DUEI-One night, at a
party in Paris, Benjamin
Franklin exchanged angry
words with a nobleman. At
one point he cried out in dis
gust:
"Sir, you smell like a dead
fish!"
The other demanded an
apology. Franklin refused.
The nobleman then insisted
that a duel must be fought.
Franklin would have none of
that either.
what will a duel solve?"
he said. IF you kill me. you
will still smell like a dead
fish. And if I kill you, you
will smell even worse"
KNOWLEDGE-Charles P.
Steinmetz. the wizard of
electricity. spent his adult
life in the quest for electrical
data. To gain a little kEowl-
edge was to him worth any
sacrifice.
Once his summer home
was struck by lightning. He
hastened to the house to sur
vey the damage. He was
familiar with every object in
the rooms and was able to
trace the path of the bolt
without difficulty.
The following day. when
he returned to his Office. his
colleagues tried to console
him over his loss.
Don't console me. laughed
Steinmetz. This is the most
wonderful thing that ever
happened to me. I learned
more about lightning yester-
day than I had learned in
the past 10 years!"

of the farm into substitutes for
use in manufacturing, as soy
beans for oil and plastics. the
casein of milk for artificial wool,

The earphones were placed on
his head and he was handed a
manuscript. Laboriously and
painfully he began to read.
Then a technician threw a
switch, turning on the ear
phones.
Volume and Pitch Rises.
Instantly. the subjects voice
increased in volume and raised
in pitch. With no noticeable
interruption, one word followed
another normally as he raced
through the story.
Mr.. Click, who has been stut-
tering since he was 13, told re-
porters that when the echo came
to his ears he started to con-
centrate more on the words
printed before him. He was
unconscious of any change in
his speech.
Mr.. Click, like other sufferers,
got a kick out of watching re-
porters and other non-stutterers
with the machine.
During the test this reporter
took, he was conscious only Of
an uncomfortable shaking of the
head and hands, sweaty palms
and an effort to concentrate on
the reading. On the playback
later, he found he had practically
shouted, his voice was quavering
and his breath came in gasps.
In his case, he didn't stutter.
Subjects Are Frustrated.
Prof. Hendricks said some sub
jects become SO frustrated they

head and throw them to the
floor.
Thomas Aylward, a speech in

least affected, yet many Of his
words trailed of into unintel-
ligible sounds as he tried hard
to continue the test.
Normal speaking persons
often develop the speech char
acteristics of the cerebral palsied

Hendricks said.
These reactions are thought
to be similar to those experienced

A machine that will make you
stutter was demonstrated to
neWsmen at the University of
Maryland last week.
Scientists and research stu
dents are making normal-talking
persons stammer so they can
study this form of speech i'm
pediment more fully. They also
are trying to find out the ma
chimes effect on those who al
ready stutter.
Researchers do not yet know
what they can do with the device
and are making no claims Of a
cure for those who stammer.
Astonishing Demonstration.
But neWsmen and officials of
the university's Speech Depart
ment were astonished in the
demonstration to see a 20-year-
old student with serious stam-
mer lose all traces of the i'm
pediment.
Prof. Richard Hendricks of
the speech department, said it
Is thought that the machine
creates reactions in normal
speaking persons similar to ex-
periences of those who Stutter,
thus giving psychologists and
other scientists a wider field
for study. Some believe stam-
mering is associated in some
way with personality.
The effects the machine has
on stammerers and non-stam-
mererS are so dramatic about a
dozen State colleges and the
armed forces are experimenting
with it. Stammering is prob
lem to nearly one of every 100
school children and one with
which is million Americans are
afflicted.
Temporary Correction.

stration Alan Click, a junior
who is majoring in speech
pathology, was the student
whose speech was, it seemed,

narily Mr.. Click experiences
