MOVING into the tube,
frequently stepping all over
the air conditioners, came
the workers" You could
feel their excitement. They
carried tiny orange pellets
of pollen, stored up in a sad
die bag arrangement on
either side of their waists,
probably picked up in a gar
den near Chevy Chase circle
from some hardy chrysan-
themums.
Into the sticky hive they
plunged, burrowing around
for space. Then it happened.
A worker went into a
strange, depraved dance,
humping other bees and gen.
orally upsetting the decorum
Of the hive.
A naturalist explained this
was a "bee Dance" a way of
telling the other workers
where and in what direction
all that pollen lay.
The workers live through
most of the winter hut only
last for six weeks in the sum-
mertime.
They are unable to do
much work when the tenn
perature drops below so de-
grees. Scientists give their
body temperature at 81
degrees.
The queen was spotted,
surrounded by adoring fol-
lowers. 1t looked like a cam
paign picture. She may have
been laying eggs-she is
capable of 1000 a day-but
seemed more inclined to en-
Joy all the attention. The
workers clean the queen at
fixed intervals and, Scien-
lists say, by touching her re-
ceive a hormone which pre-
vents them from laying eggs.
Among queens, this is prob
ably a well-kept secret.
Soon the queen wedged in
to a cell. She was a large
lady stepping into a row
boat.

developed, has some of the
best adult entertainment in
town.

would either be eaten, or
stung in such a way as to be
placed in a suspended state
of a MIN a tion and then
tucked next to a wasp egg in
a wasp's nest. At birth, the
young wasp would find a
well-stocked deep freeze.
The incident-it did not
make yesterdays newspapers
happened outside one of
the windows of the Rock
Greek Nature Center, an at
tractive building in the mid
die of the park, just above
Military road.
The Rambler had had a
hazy notion that most ma
ture centers concentrate on
small plant life, forcing one
to sit through lectures on the
Importance of moss to the
balance of nature. He had
not intended to visit the CEN
ter. But then he heard about
the bees under glass.

Learns
About the Bees
BY JOHN McKELwAY

Inc wasp wobbled in like
a World War I bomber.
1t was fat and black and
trying to look mean when it
ran into the glass and spun
down on the window sill. It
picked itself up and headed
for the honey bees.
There was a fleeing strug-
gle at the entrance of the
plastic tube. The bee had
made what might have been
an attempt to buzz the wasp
"a futile If brave buzz. The
wasp clutched the bee to its
underbelly and of the two
went into the vastness of
Rock Creek Park.
A naturalist explained the
bees future prospects. It

THE BEES, also under the
auspices of National Capital
Parks. are in a room filled
with light and containing ex-
hibits on geology, weather,
snakes, frogs, turtles and
some fish. The room is also
filled with small children
most Of the time.
From the hive, there is a
plastic tube leading to a hole
in a window pane. This is
the entrance to the hive.
And from here the bees, after
a pause, take off into the
world beyond, searching for
what pollen or nectar might
still be available before the
arrival of winter
The bees have no privacy
at all but do not seem less
Industrious out of any en-
barrassment they might feel.
By now, perhaps, they are
used to people standing for
hours under their spell,
watching their every move.
1t may be the best place to
waste time in Washington.
Up the plastic tube, facing
down toward the hive, were
maybe 100 bees assigned the
task Of air conditioning. Sta
tionary, they kept. their
wings fluttering in a great
effort to keep air circulating
in the hive. They seemed to
have rest periods, now and
then. If there was a boss, he
was not obvious,

NEW YORK. Dec. 80 (AP).-
Allegheny Corp. has thrown its
weight behind the New York
Central Railroad in the latter's
efforts to merge with the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad.
This put Allegheny in oppo-
Sition to the Chesapeake & Ohio
Railway, which seeks to affiliate
with and eventually merge with
the BIO. The C&O has re-
fused to consider a Central pro-
posal to merge all three lines.
Allan Kirby, president of
Allegheny, said the big holding
company had purchased more
than 100000 shares" of BIO
common stock.
Allegheny controls the New
York Central. Mr.. Kirby. the
the largest stakeholder in AL
leghany, is also a director OF
Central.
THE acquisition has been
made for investment purposes,
and for the further purpose of
aggreSsively protecting Allie
ghany's interest in the New
York Central Railroad" Mr..
Kirky said.
Allegheny Corp. is itself en-
gagged in a fight with a group
headed by the Murchison
brothers of Texas threatening
to wage a proxy contest.
