Portland -(UPD- The condi tion of department store exec utive Aaron Frank was re ported improved today at St. Vincent hospital. Frank, 69, was hospitalized last Satur day after suffering a heart attack. nist from the San Diego Na tural History Museum, re ports that elephant seals have been seen chewing tobacco at one of their haunts on the coast of Baja California, Mexico. moran sam the seals on Guadalupe Island pick and chew the leaves of the Indian tobacco plant, which is a com mon weed on the Baja Cali fornia coast. Dr. Arthur L. Kelly, a stu dent of mammals at Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, said the remains of the plant, which contains nicotine, often are found in stomachs of the elephant seal. Kelly said elephant seals, which grow as long as 20 feet and can reach a weight of eight tons, may be bored or frustrated when they eat the plants. "Animals often tear at plants when their normal habits are interfered w i t h," he ex plained. "This is called 'dis placement activity.' ' "If a sea gull Is frustrated in his breeding habits, for ex ample, he will often tear at the turf with his beak," Kelly said. Dr. Moran said the Indian tobacco plant which the ele phant seals like is relatively new to Guadalupe Island and probably didn't start growing there until between 1932 and 1948. It is widespread on the mainland of Baja California. He said goats, the largest land animals in the area, won't eat it. : i Mm, . . d if-"1 - , --.
