Origin Of Speech
Laid TO Hunting

Man probably developed the
ability to talk when he stopped
being a small-game collector
and became an active hunter,
Ashley Montagu, Ph.D., Prince
ton, N. j., anthropologist, said
today.
Writing in the current Journal
of the American Medical Asso-
citation, he said it appears that
speech first developed while man
was content to catch game by
simply stalking 1t, for In stalk
ing prey It IS essential to
be quiet.
s'r IS more likely that the
early huntsmen would attempt
to make meaningful cries dur
ing the chase than during their
collecting or simple stalking OF
game" DR.. Montagu said.
''m running, and in the excite
ment Of the chase, there would
be a strong tendency toward the
violent expression Of air, which
could readily be converted into
a meaningful cry or yell. All
that is necessary is the repe-
tition and imitation of such
sounds In similar contextual Sit

feathers.
Feathers from water fowl
make better pillows than feath-
ers from land fowl, so goose
and duck feather pillows are
somewhat more buoyant than
those filled with turkey or chick
en- feathers.
Many pillows contain mixtures
Of feathers and down. A combina-
tion of 80 percent goose feathers
and 20 per cent down makes a
good quality pillow, she says,
because the combination of down
and feathers helps keep the pill
low from mating and Jumping
and makes It more durable than
down alone.
Foam rubber pillows may be
nodded in one piece, or they may
be made from two or more
pieces and cemented together.
Shredded foam pillows are also
manufactured. Varying degrees
of firmness are available, but
very soft or "limp" foam pill
lows may be hard to find.
Many pillows sold today con-
tain man-made ffbers. Both poly
ester and acrylic fibers are used
IN pillows, but the polyesters
are usually more resilient than
the acrylics, Mrs. Thomas says.
New ffbers make a better quality

Variety OF Materials
Used In Pillows

Don't expect your pillows to
last forever, says Katie Thomas,
Kent County extension agent,
home economics. Ten to IS years
is about as long as even fine
quality pillow can be expected
to stay buoyant and comfortable,
she says, and the life Of less
expensive pillows IS even Short
er.
If you bought your pillows 10
to Is years ago, you will find
many new types available now.
Most Of the cost Of a pillow Is
in the filling material which you
cannot see, Mrs. Thomas points
out, so the integrity Of the re
taller and manufacturer are es-
pecially important.
Down pillows are the softest,
as we'll as the most expensive.
Down Is the soft undercoating Of
a water fowl, consisting Of light
fluffy filaments grown from one
quill point but without a quill
shaft. Down makes a luxurious
pillow, but 1t may not wear as
well as pillow of goose

tabnShed as words. In this man.
ner a simple vocabulary would
come into being, which could
then serve as basis for fur
ther development"
Speech, or language, DR.. Mon
tagu said, formally comes into
being when two or more indivi-
duals agree to attach the same
meaning to the same sounds
and thereafter use those sounds
consistently with the meanings
that have been conferred upon
them.
When the earliest progenitors
of man were forced to take to
a hunting way Of life, owing to
the deforestation Of formerly
thickly forested areas, he said,
a high premium would have been
placed upon the ability to COM
municate by sound with fellow
hunters. This would be eS-
pecially true during the chase,
when It would be highly desir-
able to communicate changing
intentions paralleling the chang
ing conditions during the hunt,
he said. This would require
signaling of modified strategies,
he said, and this could best be
done by voice.
"In the early history Of mans
evolution, problem solving abili-
ties would have been at a high
premium, especially during the
hunt" DR.. Montagu said.
"Combined with the ability to
interpret and initiate the mean
ingful cries Of ones companions,
such a combination of abilities
would have had high survival
value. Thus, the development of
intelligence and of speech would
have gone hand in-hand with one
another. Those individuals having
the ability to solve problems
quickly and to interpret the ex-
preSSionS Of others, would be
more likely to leave a progeny
than those wanting In such a
combination of Abilities"

pillow than reused fibers. The
terms, "garnetted fibers" and
"garnetted clippings" mean the
ffbers are reused.
Another pillow material is ka-
pok, which Is the floss from seed
pods of tropical tree. Kapok
tends to mat and become hard as
1t Is used.
Feather and down pillows need
a closely woven eight-o tick
ing to keep the feathers from
working through. Be certain that
sizing has not been used In the
ticking to make 1t appear heavier.
Beware of pillows with hand
some covers and poor quality
filling. Some Of these are fairly
expensive and are a poor buy.
Read the labels carefully and
learn to understand what they
mean.
A pillow should be light
In weight compared to its size.
To be sure 1t is filled properly,
balance the pillow on your fore
arm. A well-filled pillow holds

I Four Arlington defendants
testified in their United States
District Court trial that they
were present during a fight
with three Fort Belvoir soldiers
last June 10. but that they did
not see their car pass over the
body of Pvt. Edward j. Betcher
as he lay on the ground.
Earlier yesterday Jud g e
Richmond B. Keech directed
an acquittal in the case Of a
fifth person, Thomas A. Green,
%, of the 210O block Of South
Nelson street. Arlington, who
had been charged with man
slaughter and assault.
Pvt. Betcher, 10, of Brooklyn,
N. Y, died from a ruptured
heart after being run over by a
car allegedly driven by one Of
the defendants. His death fol-
lowed a fight between the de-
PENDANTS and the soldiers.
Recalls hacking I'm
Sheila Mae Turner, 81, of the
l40O block of S south Rolfe
street, charged with negligent
homicide, said she remembered
backing up the defendants car
during the fight. She denied
knowing that Pvt. Betcher's
body was lying behind the rear
wheels Of the car. Miss Turner
said she had turned around
and looked to see that everone
was clear before she backed the
car up.
Other defendants in the Incl
dent which took place in the
270O block of Nichols avenue
Sc. are Gerald L. Jackson, %,
Of the $500 block of South
Kemper road; Leon billiard, jr.,
of the 300 block of South
K emper road and Floyd T.
Smith, %, of the 3400 block of

Union'sScope
In Picketing

The United States Court Of
Appeals yesterday held that
a newspaper pressmen's union
which struck the Miami Herald
could not picket the Detroit
Free Press, although both
newspapers are owned by the
Knight Newspapers. Inc.
The court held that the two
newspapers, although under
common legal ownership. were
for all practical purposes run
separately.
The unions dispute with the
Miami Herald. the court said,
could not be imputed as q dis
pute with the Knight News
papers and therefore the union
had no right to picket the
Detroit paper.
The case arose on August /,
1851, when the Miami news
paper PreSSmen's Local, No.
As, struck the Miami Herald
over o contract disagreement
concerning the manning Of
new presses.
The Herald was able to con-
ttnue publishing and on Au-
gust 10 the union started to
picket the Detroit Free Press,
shutting down the Free Press
until August "a when an in
junction was issued by a Fed
eral court.
The Knight Newspapers, Inc.
charged the union with an un-
fair labor practice and the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board
after hearings supported the
newspapers complaint.
The National Labor Relations
Board, which was the defend
ant in the case, found that
:'these two metropolitan daily
newspapers appear to have had
separate and largely unrelated
lives Of their own. despite theil

that there was no common
