They bank heavily on the re . straining' influence . of Marshal s Gregori .Zhukov, elevated to de . fense minister in this week's Moscow upheaval. 8 The World War II Soviet hero is an ardent Communist, . but he also is a realistic, pro fessional soldier. He knows first hand the part played by Allied might in internal German col- - lapse as well as .by the Red army. Experts here say Zhukov is not likely to misjudge American s abilities and intentions or go along with Moscow hot-heads who would kick off a war after reading their own propaganda on Russian might, . These quarters, however, look for a drumfire of war threats and blackmail, designed to I frighten" West Europe and wreck the German Rearmament" drive. In this segment of the admin istration, fear of German rearm ament and failure to nip it are cited as likely prime causes of the Kremlin reshuffle that top pled . Georgi M.

No matter what is blocking your progress, the "horn happy" motorist keeps bearing down on his horn. An old saying is, "The loud laugh bespeaks the vacant mind." I believe that goes dou ble for the loud horn - blower. Briefly, loud and unnecessary auto horn blowing is a moronic pastime. ' Quartettes New. Yorkers have always been the country's most enthus iastic amateur quartette singers. There was in Manhattan, in' the days beyond recall, a saloon bearing the quaint name-, of Flaherty's Harp. , At this place. the quartette singing, was con tinuous.

A human kicks it through veins at about twice that speed. All of this was performed to kick off Heart Month an aP" peal for money to finance re search on the miseries of the human heart; The little ele pnant neia up tne works and also fouled things up. "Jupiter's Darling," dressed in a red blanket ad , hating news' men and photographers, got off to a bad start. First she stuck her tongue out at Dr. John A. Reisinger, president )f the Wash ington Heart Association. A Show Off She stuck it out real far. And being 'a show-lady, she, did it again for pictures. Dr. Reisinger didn't much like it, but what could he do with all of the movie people about in the lobby of the Loew's Capitol Theater and not only the pho tographers. i.ne gooa doctor put some wires onto a complicated board and tried to get the little lady elephant to hold still for some tests. x All "Jupiter's Darling" did was wrap the . business end of her, trunk around the wires and other gimmicks and attract an audience. People were coming into .the theater to see a picture. But before they purchsed a ticket here was a -free show. It was not about to be missed. ' The man aboard to give the scientific data on the heart-beat of the elephant was a pleasant fellow named Dr. Paul D. White of Boston. He is an internation ally known cardioligist. No . Idle Sport Dr. White let it be known that listening to the slow tick of the heart of the baby elephant was no idle sport. ' The scientist, who is. inter ested in the human heart and improvement thereof, also is in terested in hearts of all sizes, including those of baby ele phants. "The bigger animals," he said, "usually have a lower heart beat. But you take the humming bird. His little heart may run along at a thousand beats per minute. But young Jupiter's Darling, she runs along well look at the tape." -: The tape on the complicated machine at the moment showed the young lady elephant heart pumping at something like 47 licks per minute. It . Isn't Nonsense . And what does all of this non sense add up to? It isn't ' non sense, really, according to Dr. White. : v. , ; : Way he looks at it,, research through animals the size of the heart in relation to the size of the body 'which it supports-rone day may come answers in thepstudy of heart disease in things like people. .
