FARNRWORTH ANftorlalrfl Ptfm Muff Writer NEW YORK, March 13. yp) Let'a spend a few minutes today at the home of the "guinea pig" twins, Jimmy and Johnny Woods, who are leading Columbia scientists through exciting psychological experiments. Perhaps then you will understand why the mother, Mrs. Dennis Woods, enjoys getting out now and then to see the neighborhood movies. The twins have been the subject of experimentation since 20 days af ter birth. One was trained in various physical skills while the other was permuted to grow "normally." Policy Declared Goqd Dr. Myrtle B. McOraw. who has trained the one and checked bis pro gress against his brother's. Is con vinced that Infants should be stimu lated for maximum physical and mental development. Mrs. Woods, central figure In the following domestic drama. Isn't so sure. The tow-headed twins, who will be four years old next month, are the supporting cant. The father, a PWA nurseryman, and the other five chil dren are absent. Scene: The narrow kitchen of the Woods' six-room flat. Mrs. Woods, who has found time to put her hair In curlers. Is trying to do some Iron ing. Johnny, the "conditioned" twin, is trying to scale the cupboard; Jimmy, the normal, untrained one, sit quietly on a chair. Mrs. Woods: Johnny, you get down from there. You'll break your neck. Oct down and tell the man your nnmo. Johnny: (Reaching Into the sec ond shelf of the cupboard). What's his name? Why doesn't he tell his name? ftkater at 19 Months Mrs. Woods: (Proudly) Johnny was roller skating when he was IS months old. No, X cant tell much difference between them now, except that John ay la always getting into places. Johnny: Look! Letter, (He has found a bit of personal correspond ence on the second shelf. Mrs. Woods grabs It and him, puts the letter back and Johnny to the floor). Mrs. Woods: Tha neighbor girl Just brought Johnny up a few minutes sgo said he was hanging on the back of a taxi. Jimmy (amothlng his hair), why don't you talk to the man It Johnny won't? Tell him what kind of movies you like. Jimmy: Mickey Mouse and Popeye the Sailor. Popeye ate all his spin ach and knocked the bad man out. (Johnny meanwhile has started again up the cupboard. He finds a metal curtain rod and bends it dou ble across bis knee. Mrs. Woods Woods snatches It from him and tries to straighten It). Jimmy: Wipe my nose, mama. Goes for Hot Iron (Johnny skirts his mother to reach the hot Iron. He tries to Iron a hand kerchief and succeeds in pulling the cord from the overhead light socket) Mrs. Woods: No, I don't know what they do with them at Columbia. The ' nurse Just comes every two weeks and takes them for the day. Jimmy. go wash your hands. Johnny, put down that dish. They don't tell me any thing. But they take them for the day and I guess that'a something. 10 YEARS IN PEN PORTLAND. Ore.. March 13.
