Space Man Will BE Like You

space" is not very likely creation. Two
eyes are better than one for the purpose Of
Judging distance and shape, but three
would not be better than two. The same
goes for ears. You might argue that more
eyes and ears would be useful as spares in
case of accidents. This is logical, but
earth organisms at least do not run to
spares. We do not know the reason for
this but it is logical to assume that life on
other planets would not have developed
along different lines.
]. The eyes and ears are near the
5rain. Information gathered by eyes and
ears must reach the brain quickly in order
to be useful. This transmission by the
nerves is slow. Therefore the sense organs
must be close to the brain to shorten the
time lag between information and reaction.
8. He has ''hands'' and fleet" We
know that our spaceman will walk erect.
In order to survive, any being must be
able to move around. But in order to
build he would need something resen,-
bling our hands. Somewhere along the
line of his development he would have
had to free one pair of legs to allow them
to become hands. The only way to do
this is to learn to stand. Also il is almost
certain that once on his back legs he
would develop bending fingers and an
opposabIe thumb. To produce a high
state of technology he would need to be
able to pick things up. to be able to grasp,
hold, push and pull. Why not tentacies.
such as on an octopus? Because tentacles
can pull, but cannot push effectively.
Now that we've drawn a rough portrait
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-11-10

of the Man from Planet x, is there any
thing we can guess about Planet x itself?
Here again the answer is familiar one;
his planet is probably very much like ours.
We would probably be able to live on it.
First Of all, Planet X can't be much
larger or much smaller than Earth. If it
were much bigger the gravity would be so
crushingiy great las on the planet Jupiter

that life. let alone intelligence, would
never even get started. If it were too
small, it would not have sufficient gravi-
rational pull to hang on to its gases like
the planet Mercury and there would be
nothing for anybody to breathe.
The planets atmosphere. too, would
be much like ours. There are only two
chemical combinations that are complex

News Notes

r. w. Dennis, chairman Of the
Noble ASC county committee,
announced that eligibility re-
quirements for receiving a new
wheat allotment in 1858 are as
follows: CD the applicant must
derive more than 500 of his
livelihood from the farm, (2)
the applicant can not be operat-
ing another farm for which a
1858 Wheat Allotment will be
established, go the county COM
mittee determines that the plant
ing Of wheat would not produce
a crop or would cause an ap-
preciable erosion hazard, (4) the
owner makes the application for
an allotment and the operator
is declared ineligible under rea-
sons (D and (2).
Dennis said that according to
Soil Bank regulations New
Allotments" are not eligible to
be placed in the Acreage Reserve
therefor, the benefit of an aIot5
ment would be that of emitting
a grower to price support on the
wheat he produces providing he
stays within his allotment.
Application blanks may be
secured at the Noble ASC county
office and must be filed not later
than July |, 1857.
