Instead of confining my atten
tion to the animals at the zoo this
morning, I listened to what some
visitors said. As a result, here's
a passel of facts vs. fallacies
found at the zoo.
Fallacy: "How contented those
pheasants look, all grouped togeth
er." Pact: Few birds, pheasants in
cluded, like to live in confined
groups. Male birds stake out their
own territory, warn rivals to keep
out and announce their presence
to eligible females by crowing cr
singing.
During the mating season, most
male birds will not tolerate an
other male within a certain, self
determined area. In some spe
cies, the female will not permit
another of her sex to enter the
sacred precincts.
However, a few birds such as
purple martins, cliff swallows,
bank swallows, some herons and
most sea birds do encourage neigh
borliness. Yet, even these have
territories, small but vigorously
defended.
Fallacy: "What a shame to keep
a lion confined to suoh a limited
area." .
Fact: Among, the larger meat
eating animals, the lion suffers
perhaps less under close confine-

fullv illustrate luck of these
ment than any other for the sim
ple reason that be has a lesser
urge for movement. To put it
bluntly, the lion is a lazy ani
mal. You seldom see him pacing
restlessly to and fro in his cage
as wolves, foxes and panthers
do for hours at a stretch.
SHOULD THE URGE for loco
motion overcome him, he may
stroll up and down the length of
his cage a couple of times, but
his walk certainly has none of the
frantic urge of captive cats.
To my mind, the worst offense
committed against caged animals
are against wolves and foxes.
Fallacy: Yes, dear, the elephant
drinks through his trunk."
Fact: The elephant sucks water
up into his trunk and then squirts
it into his mouth. As for the young
'un, it uses its mouth, not its
trunk, to suck milk from its moth
er. Incidentally, the young is born
after about a 22-month pregnancy,
weighing from 150 to 200 pounds;
Fallacy: "Penguins come from
both the north and south pole."
Fact: The flightless penguin's
native habitat' is south of the
equator. There they may have
quite a spread being found on
South Sea Islands, in parts of Aus
tralia, New Zealand, and in some
parts of South America, even as
far up the coast as Peru. In the
Arctic, one finds the auks and puf
fins which somewhat resemble the
penguins however these birds
can fly, the penguin can t.
FALLACY "Yes,, darling, an!
mals eyes shine in the dark."
Fact: Animals' eyes do not shine
in the dark, they only glow when
they reflect light from headlights,
searchlights, or campfires. . The
glow is produced by a layer of
crystalline substance which re
flects light.
Unlike animals' eyes, the hum
an's have practically none of this
suDstance ana tnereiore seldom re
flect light.
In reflecting light, some animals-eyes
are redder than others.
This is mostly due to the concen
tration of blood in the eyes. Those
animals which have many blood
vessels tend to glow with a def
inite red color; those with fewer
blood vessels have a whiter glow.

slated for his first interview with

Wednesday after driving from bis

Among the obvious queries due

What does he plan to do about

since retirement of Bobby Doerr?
What about Ted Williams' plans
for retirement: Will Higgins try

Power, Punting Replacing
Two-Platoon
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Power plays and the punting
game are getting more empnasu;
this year than at any time sine
college football offenses were
thrown wide open at the start of
World War II.
In this second season of the re
turn to one platoon play, the suc
cess of a bruising ground attack
combined with an alert defense is
the one consistent thread running
through an upset-studded cam
paign. Those who watched the nationally-televised

the "new" grid game as it has
developed after the '53 season

never, shaking its long gainers
loose. Ameche slammed into the
Owls 21 times for 90 yards and
both Wisconsin touchdowns.
Power football, wearing through
Rice's shock-absorbers, paid off
when Ameche crashed ntnt tacki
for the winning score.
