Brain 'Thermostot Rules Body Heat
BY THOMAS R. HENRY

Man has a complex "ther-
mostat" in his brain. 1t keeps
his body temperature within
safe limits under any ordi-
nary conditions. If he gets toe
cold, equilibrium is restored
by such reactions as shiver-
ing; If too hot, by reactions
like sweating. These are con-
trolled by the thermostat.
They are automatically set
into action.
This is reported by DR..
T. H. Bensinger and his as
sociates Of the Naval Medical
Research Institute.
Automatic Controls
First, there is a heat
maintenance center" in the
area at the base of the brain
known as the hypothalamus.
When the body temperature
drops below normal it relays
impulses with increasing fire.
quency from heat-reception
nerve endings in the skin to
activate various body proc
esses of heat production.
This center itself is not SEN
sitive to direct heat changes.
In the same area of the
brain, however, is a heat
loss center" which acts as a
terminal receptor for tenn
perature comparable to the
retina Of the eye, which is
the receptor organ for light.
This organ" DR.. Ben
Finger reports, controls not
only the direct responses to
heat by vasodilatation and
sweating but also indirectly
by impulses sent to the heat
maintenance center.
THE result of this three
fold function is a thermo-
static performance Of aston
ishing power and precision.
This heat-loss center should
be added to the short list
Of mans major sensory re-
ceptor organs"
TOO often external condi-
lions or workloads demand
a rate Of heat loss so excess
sive that even a maximum of
sweating and peripheral blood
flow could not meet it. Also
the air may be too humid to
permit complete evaporation
of the sweat gland product.
"On the other side, a cool
environment may force inter-
nal temperature below the
set point. These extremes are
avoided by higher nervous
activity - that is warming
oneself by deliberate move
ments or finding shelter"

people of Berlin are very
courageous" he reports.
They have not panicked and
are not personally fearful Of
the Russians or the East Ger
man Communists"
Senator Douglas found
that the construction Of the
wall was not really suspected
before it was actually begun.
I'm my opinion we should
have made some effort to
stop the wall from going up"
He insists that had we taken
such a stand against its con-
struction by the East German
Communists, we would have
forced the Russian Commu-
nistS, who have had the East
Germans doing their dirty
work for years, to come into
the open. "In the Judgment
Of many" he reports, they
would have backed down at
this point"
The wall he describes as
brutal" 1t is of concrete,
Z feet high and topped with
broken glass and 2 or 8 feet
Of barbed wire. Since its
erection, the Communists
have brought about a reign
Of terror in East Berlin, and
in East Germany. Before
the erection of the wall,
which amounts to a prison
wall, this was not possible.
Three million East Germans
have detected since 1916, and
the OBJECTIONS were gradually
denuding the Communist
controlled territory.
Reciprocal Rights
Senator Douglas points out
that we have the right of
access into East Berlin and
that Berlin is under four
power control, but that the
Russian-d dominated East Ber-
lin sector has been gradu-
ally closed off and the wall
has been the latest device.
The Russians have the right
Of entry-as one of the four
powers controlling Berlin,
into West Berlin. They ex-
ercise this right every day.
They send in troops to guard
Spandau Prison. A Soviet
officer still sits as one mem
Der of the Air Safety Com
mittee at Tempelhof Air
Field, and troops come to
guard the Soviet War Me-
mortal. Without saying it
exactly, the Senator hints
that If we are pressed too
hard in regard to entry into
East Berlin, we should retail
ate in kind.
In Senator Douglas opin-
ion, If we fail to stand firm
and West Berlin should be
taken over by the Commu-
nists, we would be confronted
by the same issues on the
borders of West Germany,
and then at the English
Channel. The Communists
would take over all Germany
and the NATO alliance
would be ended. The Hi
nois Senator is not an advo-
cate Of war. He has seen
war at first hand, serving in
the LIST Marine Division in
the Far East during World
War II. He was twice wound
ed, at Peleliu and Okinawa,
reached the rank of lieuten-
ant colonel and was awarded
the Bronze Star for ''heroic
achievement in action" He
remains strongly opposed to
peace at any price, and in
his opinion we would be pay
ing too high a price If we
backed down in West Berlin.

EnroIIs 5000 Adults
BY JOHN ROSSON

Joseph A. Wright. 80, already
a graduate engineer. decided
last week he'd better take a
course in the mechanics OF
space flight.
Without it," he says, II feel
like I'm getting behind in my
own profession"
BY contrast, Mrs. Amy A,
Braddock, whose children are
nearly grown, decided to take
shorthand and become a part
time housewife-secretary.
Both found what they want
in the way Of courses in the
largest all-encompassing adult
Education program in the
Washington area.
Operated in nearby Airing
ton and covering most Of Nor
thern Virginia, the program
boasts a total enrolment OF
5000 adults. all of them seek
ing furtherance Of their formal
educationS.
The Arlington program is
unusual.
Programs Merged
To avoid cross purposes, the
county school systems adult
education program has been
merged, so to speak, with the
University Of Virginia's North
ern Virginia Center for Ex-
tension and Special Studies.
Each maintains q separate desk
for the most part, with q
different set Of adults. but the
boss at both desks is the same
man, 3S-year-old Dean E.
Brundage, former paratrooper
and graduate Of Princeton.
Mr.. Brundage can offer an
applicant an intensified course
in anything from sewing a
bedspread to the hazards Of
rocketry.
With o staff Of 80 clerical
helpers and some $50 care
fully chosen instructors, Mr..
Brundage is busy registering

students for spring semester
classes which get underway

erative setup.
Why?
While there's no overlapping
in the two programs s,55 he says,
many ventures can be under
taken which combine facil-
ties Of both institutions-the
county and the university
and the relationship between
courses can be clearly defined. /"
Effectiveness Claimed
This arrangement. worked
out during his yeoman service
with both institutions, makes
for q more effective approach
to adult education In It's en-
tirety, he adds.
Typical Of this flexible ap-
proach is Mr.. Brundage's lee
ture series starting next month
on the Civil War Centennial.
A schedule Of well-known
speakers and rare exhibits in IL

in the Falls Church High

@, Do you know Of any
scholarships available in the
field Of elementary education?
My son is interesting in en-
tering this field. Is there a
place for men in the grade
schools? He viii need financial
help.
A. You ask two questions,
really. One: Are scholar
ships available? The answer
is yes. Write to the United
States Office Of Education,
Washington 25. D. c., for its
book on scholarships. Also,

ships.
Your second question: Should
men go into elementary school
teaching? My answer is a
decided yes. At present only
Is per cent of the elementary
teachers are male, a better
relationship would be $3.50.
AS we get more men into the
teaching profession, particu-
larly in the lower grades. we
will strengthen the entire pro-
fession. Besides, young chill
dren need both male and
female teachers. There is a
