Parker and Vir- L. Paine of Radeliffe College, [agsdchusetts. They worked with the “lateral line” sense of cat-fish. This s & sense possessed only by fish which les the animal to detect movement of the water. Of all the senses pos- sessed by man, it is perhaps nearest skin to the vestibular sense which is concerned with the balancing of the body and whose feceptor orgam is the middle ear. Process Moved Slowly. ‘This “sense” has specia! organs in the head and body which receive the water movement impulses. These im- pulses then are conveyed to the brain of the fish over a nerve trunk. The {nerves of a considerable number of large catfishes were cut just in front of by ganglion, or mass of nerve cell bodies, connected with the lateral line sense just behind the gills. Then the catfish 'were killed, a few each day, and the Healthful Property Is More Abun- dant Than in Apples, New Eng- land Scientists Find. By the Assoclated Press. AMHERST, Mass., November 27— Recognition was given yesterday to the blueberry as a food rich in vitamin C. Experiments condueted by Carl R. Fellers and Paul D. Isham of the De- partment of Horticultural Manufactures at the Massachusetis State showed the blueberry to be richer in this property than apples, and from one-half to two-thirds as valuable as oranges or grape fruit. The blueberry, eaten in large quanti- ties in New England, is credited with being a potent factor in prevention of deficiency diseases. .
