Laboratory. i
An article appearing in' the cur
rent issue (March 18) of Time,

interesting comment on their work

"Triturus viridescens is a U. S.
newt which spends the first three
to six months of its life as a water
larva, then in some parts of the
country at leasts-comes out to take
up residence on land. On land the
newts are bright red in color, are
known as "red efts", During this
phase they are immature and can
not reproduce. After three or four
years, they go back to the water,
slough , off the red skin of adoles
cence, assume the olive-green garb
of adults, acquire the peeled tan
of an acquatic animal, and 'tackle
the business of parenthood. Ques
tion : What impels them, after so
long a time on land, to go back
to the water? Scientists of an older
generation would have answered,
"Instinct".
"Biologists Edwin Eustace Reinke
and Claude Simpson Chadwick of
Vanderbilt University and the
Highlands (N. C.) Biological Lab
oratory nabbed some North Caro
lina specimens of T. viridescens in
the immature, red eft stage and
implanted bits of adult pituitary
gland in their muscles. Within six
days the newts went into the water
and assumed the adult body color
and tail .shape. Thus it seemed that
the pituitary provided not only the
necessary' physiological changes for
acquatic life but also the water
drive" or impulse to seek wa(er
"In mammals the pituitary, that
master gland, secretes a half-dozen
or so hormones (no one knows ex
actly how many) which influ
ence growth, body heat, blood pres
sure,' milk production, maternal 'be
havior, etc. Sometimes the pituitary
achieves; its ends by stimulating
other glands, such as the sex glands
or thyroids, to produce hormones
of their own.
"To make sure that neither the
sex glands or thyroids are involved
in the newts' . water drive, Reinke
and Chadwick removed the sex
glands from some red efts, the
thyroids from others, both the sex
glands and thyroids from still oth
ers, and then repeated the pituitary
treatment. These creatures, the in
vestigators reported last week in
the Journal for Experimental Zo
ology, went back to. water just the.
same, though some took as long
as eight days and made many hesir
tant passes at the water before get
ting in for good. It looks as if only
pituitary could drive a newt to
water. - .

Egg Are Cheap Now,
Nutritious Always
Next to milk, eggs are the most
perfect single food. "Eat eggs for
health always, and eat eggs for
an economical dish at this season
of the year," advises Miss Sallie
Brooks, assistant extension nutri
tionist of N. C. State college.
The home economist endorsed
the "Springtime Egg Festival"
which is being conducted this week
by producers and consumers, with
the support of thousands of mer
chantsincluding the Southeastern
Chain Store Council Another per
iod of the Festival will be the
week of April 11-18.
M iss Brooks pointed out that
more than half of the total egg
crop ot the year is produced in
March, April, May and June
"When production is at the peak,
prices quite naturally are at their
lowest, so that the family can now
revel in eggs have them in some
form at every meal." she said.
Citing-the nutritive value of eggs
tor persons of all ages, Miss
Brooks said: "Of all the natural
foods, eggs are the best source of
vitamin D, with the exception of
tisn oils. or this reason, children
who aTe given eggs from infancy
are better" fortified against rickets
than those who do not have them.
tggs also provide vitamins A.
B and G, and they are an excel
lent source of iron, and a fairly
gooa source of calcium and phos
phorous. The protein and fat in
eggs arc easily assimilated by the
As a suggestion on egg cookeiy,
the nutritionist pointed out that
high temperatures make the white
of the egg tough. When the egg is
doiico, me part where the white
and yolk come together often de
velops a dark green color. This
may be decreased, if not eliminat
ed, by cooking the egg as short a
time as possible, and by cooline at
once under water.
