I
Live Animal To
Make Space Trip
In Missile Cone
Miami, Fla. (UPD A live
animal, probably a monkey,
will make a 10,000-mile an
hour trip through space in a
Jupiter missile nose cone soon
as part of the nation's man-in-space
project, it has been
disclosed.
Maj. Gen. John D. Medaris,
commander of the Army Ord
nane Missile Command at
Huntsville, Ala., said the crea
ture would be sent up beyond
the edge of the earth's atmos
phere within 60 days.
Orbit Not Expected
Medaris said an effort to re
cover the cone would be made
so doctors could determine
how well the animal with
stood the space voyage.
The animal-carrying Jupi
ter is not expected to go into
orbit like the Discoverer sa
tellite fired last month. The
Jupiter probably will travel
straight along the Atlantic
tracking range in a flight of
about 20 minutes.
The Army conducted a si
milar experiment in a launch
ing at Cape Canaveral last
Dec. 13.
A tiny squirrel monkey
weighing less than one pound
survived the 1,500-mile
flight. But the monkey,
named Little Old Reliable,
was lost in the Atlantic when
efforts to recover the Jupiter's
nose cone were unsuccessful.

Ever Hear the
Talking Eggs?
I haven't the slightest idea
what they "who are about to
be born" have to say to one
'another.
But there is little doubt
that they actually do con
verse with one another in a
strange and seemingly mean
ingless "cheep" talk (the
"talking eggs" I mean) and
their "conversation" in a nest
confuses me. ;
It always happens but usu
ally there is no human ear
present to hear. We are too
busy, we humans, to take the
time to listen to the peculiar
peeps, cheeps and chirps that
are the tiny, faint indistinct
voices of chickens or any
other birds, just before they
completely break out of their
natal enclosures..
For weeks it has ben com
pletely silent in the nest.' In
side each fertile egg strange
and uncanny things are hap
pening. Liquids, separated by
thin, lifeless membranes, are
arranging and" organizing
themselves ,into bones, feath
ers, nerves, digestive systems

and organs vital to every liv
ing being.
At some certain , stage the
solidified and organized li
quids come to life. Now in
side Jthe shell there, miracu
lously occurs a living bird.
A creiature endowed with all
the instincts . and behavior
patterns of its countless ances
tors. ,,
, Along with all its other in
stincts, the one . predominant
now is the urgency to escape
from its limey enclosure and
to "converse" with its nest
mates. It must be so, for
when the first egg pips and
the tiny piece of shell falls
away, leaving an opening to
the outside world, a faint
cheep issues from, the egg..
If one listens close, an an
swering cheep comes from an
other , egg, then another.
In the nests of the wild
birds there are usually but a
few eggs. The first one that
pips issues a cheep that is a
"language" understood by its
brothers and sisters; here
there could be little confu
sion. But take a hen's nest,
or an occasion where artifi
cial conditions are imposed
by humans. This could tend
to complicate the issue and
create a "babble of tongues."
Confusion
A large number of eggs in
an incubator, with hatching
chickens unrelated to one an
other, or in cases where tur
key, duck or other eggs are
included, would bring about
confusion. The "language
barrier would seem unsur
mountable unless the lan
guage of the unhatched and
the about-to-be-hatched is a
universal tongue.
The first egg hatched, in
either a nest or an incubator,
might say: "I whammed my
bill against the cover and I
smelled fresh air." The un-
pipped egg, right alongside,
might reply with a cheep very
r faint and indistinct because
the chick here is still "out of
this world," and say, "I've got
to get out, it's awfully stuffy
in here."
, Looking at it from my hu
man viewpoint,vthis may not
be the conversational trend
at all, but Of this much I am
sure, every egg that-it about
to be hatched; every bird
about to be born, certainly
"talks" to its nest-mates. The
language of the "talking eggs"
is a faint voice but a voice
nontheless.
