over. contemplating the COM
parison of headline sizes and
the ratio Of space in news

refused to accept what they
saw as a measure of the rela-
tive interest in science and
culture. Or science and the
humanities.
They did see it, however, as
a contrast in the artfulneSs OF
the public relations methods
of the two groups. No one ac-

space-grabbers out of Chicago

Whatever of significance and
seriousness of purpose it did

signed to get attention in a
dull holiday news period. Also 1t

namely-that plays should be
written about this and related
subjects. After which AETA

This, Of course, was just a
thought-one of many that

Scientists Rdte
Porpoise as Genius
Among Animuls
The porpoise, a sea-going
mammal with q bigger brain
than mans, is gaining recog-
milton as a mental giant Of
the animal kingdom, the Ma
tional Geographic Society
says.
Some scientists believe this
small member of the whale
family may be the worlds
smartest creature, after man
and the chimpanzee. Some.
speculate that he might out
rank the intellectual chimp It
an I. @. test suitable for both
animals could be devised.
The average weight Of a hui
man brain is about 1,5OO
grams or a little under three
nnl1nds The familiar nnrnoise.
more accurately known as the
bottle-nosed dolphin tTursiops
truncatus). has a brain weigh
ing perhaps 1900 grams. The
porpoise also has q complex
voice apparatus, which sug-
sest that it might concelvabiy
learn human speech. A cap
tive at Marineland, Florida, is
reported to have initiated 2
brain researchers voice SO
well that his wife burst out
laughing. Then the porpoise
initiated her laughter.
investigators are Cautious
T h E relative intellectual
standing Of various animals
cannot be accurately assessed
at present, however, because
the validity Of all proposed
, 1960-02-19

tests is open to question. In
fact, psychologists do not
agree on the meaning Of intel
ligence. But most biologists
who have studied porpoises
are deeply impressed both
with the porpoise's ability to
learn-almost incredibly fast
on some tests-and the wide
variety Of its emotional re-
sponses and interests.
Porpoises, of course, have
never built a civilization. No
sea creature ever has. The
porpoise is something Of a
playboy, fond of games and
pranks. One favorite trick is
10 drop a piece of bait to a
fish and then dart forward
and snatch it from the Jaws
Of the fish. This gag can
amuse a porpoise for hours.
Another practical joke en-
.ioyed by captive porpoises is
to push a helpless sea turtle
around the tank. Porpoises
also like to balance objects on
their shouts and throw them
to bystanders. One visitor at
a marine exhibit made the
mistake Of tossing a bony fish
head into a tank Of porpoises.
He got it back in the face.
Porpoises apparently fancy
people. One joined bathers at
a South African beach, and all
lowed swimmers to hold its
dorsal fin n d be towed
through the water. Another
group Of porpoises intercepted
a football which veered into
the sea from a game being
played on a beach. The por-
poises merrily batted it back
and forth among themselves
, 1960-02-19
and swan off with the new
plaything.
Hitchhike on Waves

At sea, porpoises hitch rides
on the waves created by ships.
They do this by swimming
with their tails at an angle to
the ships bow waves to get
the full forward thrust.
Ages ago porpoises develop
ed q physical trait that man
can now put to use. Under
water vessels, such as sub
marines, h ave long been
slowed by turbulence-the
ripping Of water along the
sides Of an underwater object.
An aerodynamics expert no
ticed one day that porpoises
swim with little turbulence.
Examining porpoise $ k n
under a microscope, he dis
covered the secret: the por-.
poise has a thin layer of skin
supported by a mesh Of tubes
and columns. This resilient
surface chokes off most of the
tiny wavelets before they
break into turbulence.
Today, thanks to the por-
poise, scientists are expert
menting with imitation por-
poiSe skin made Of rubber to
use on underwater craft.

CANCoos
Conspiracy of Hearts," with
a cast headed by Lilli Palmer
and Yvonne Mitchell, is a
story of nuns at war; specifi-
cally of a group in a convent
near Florence who take on and
defeat the whole NaZi philos-
ophy, and a considerable elem
snt of the German armed forces.
Moreover, for all its war set
ting and theme, Conspiracy
of Hearts" is a film to make
the heart soar with its reminder
that humanity can be noble
as well as base.
y y
The film, English in origin,
relates the story of how the
nuns of nearby convent
emptied a German concentra-
ton camp of hundreds of ter
rified, pitiably underfed Jewish
orphans.
Northern Italy's high, sunny,
airy landscape is a perfect
setting for this drama of a
Mother Superior and her tiny
forces matching love and wits
against Nazi hate and force
in Conspiracy of Hearts" The
convent forces are motivated by
a determination that Italy's
Jewish orphans are going to be
saved from the fate that over
took their fellows in Hitler's
Germany.
Accordingly, they start drain
ing off the barbed wire areas
largely tragedy numbed tots
through one of those old,
conSpiratorial tunnels which
begins at the camp fence and
ends just outside the convent
walls. 1t is both a physically
narrowing and hazardous op-
Grafton and a successful one
until the infuriated Nazis name
a. new. tough colonel as camp
commander.
Now, the battle really be-
comes deadly, it's tactics on
the nuns part too clever and
deflantly daring to be revealed
here.
&
The genius of Ralph Thomas
direction of the screen-play
by Robert Presnell. jr.. is its
effortless modulation, the climb
of suspense so neatly Interrupt
ted by softly comic sequences.
Some of these latter are
standard, such as that of the
elderly bespectacled nun who
undertakes to repair the con-
vent trucks defective brakes
and battery by prayer. The hap
piest area of the film, however,
is one of sheer inspiration that
rings with reality.
This involves the Mother
Superior's discovery that it is
Yom Kippur and her decision
that the starving children, ad-
ding a day of fast to their
agony, shall have their own
religious service. The nuns,
asked to locate a Rabbi among
the partisans in the Florentine
hills, and to set up an altar for
the appropriate religious serv-
