There Dr. Carl « Hartman, former pro fessor of zoology at the University of Texas, will watch the development of | the simian nervous system from its| beginning to and after birth of the| young Macaque. It is hoped the results of these studies may be applied to some of the unanswered questions concerning hu man behavior, since the physical de. velopme=nt of the monkey is regarded as approximating the physical devel opment of man more sely than that animal.
