2 NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1940. L TOADS REAK FAST O MANY ‘YEARS (Continued From st Page) tists of the Museum of Natural his- tory today consigned the story of three Oklahoma toads sail to have | lived in a state of suspended anima- tion for three or four centuries. “Just another of those old toad traditions,” said Doris M. Cochran and Dr. Remington Kell toad experts. They agreed the three toads found in the Oklahoma Indian mound probably were a species of “‘bufo compactilis,” the burrowing toad, or “scaphiopus couchii,” the spade foot {oad, both occurring often in Okla- homa. Burrows at First Frost “They go down every year before the frost hit said Dr. Kellogs, ‘and it doesn’'t take them 300 years to get there He explained that these toa burrow down backwards to great depth, the dirt falling in over the heads as they go. Once under- ground, they can suspend animation for some time, he id, but “not to the extent some archacologists. who can't all be experts on natural history, are willing to accept.” “Some careful experiments been conducted along this line,’ Kellogg. “Toads were confined especially constructed blocks of limestone and and these blocks were buried thr feet deep in the garden. The toads confined with sandstone were found dead when the boxes were opened at th end of 13 months. Those con- fined with limestone died before the end of two years. However, been experimentally shown a toad can Jlive a year sealed up within a Dblock of limeston Can Fast For Some Time “It is known the toad can for some time without food, but the duration of an enfo starvation depends largely temperature, that is, on v not the toad is kept in Hibernation.” With regard to longevity, Kellog mentioned “one account, no doubt authentic, which concerned a toad accidentally killed when it was known to be 36 years old. He la- belled “more interesting than real- istic” accounts of toads thought to be 200, 300 and 400 years old. ‘PUBLIC ENEMIES’ ve id in in on the ther or a state of FEAR NEW DRIVE (Continued From First Page) ‘Accardo. A moment later he, cardo and four men who appeared to be bodyguards, walked out of the ‘bureau. “We public enemies must stick together,” Mangano laughed, as they walked away.

He re- plied that the gangsters might, but the law never would.” Loesch said Capone now comes {o the Loop at least twice a weelk, al- ways accompanied by eight or more bodyguards “The bodyguard is not to protect him from arrest”” Loesch added. “It i3 to protect him from the guns of gangsters.” Capone's “collector,” as sick often Is called, faces legal trouble both as a vagrant and. paradoxi- cally, for failure to pay his full in- come tax. is se sion as ack Gu- GOLD STAR MOTHERS WILL G0 T0 BOSTON (Continued From First Page) representation from this city these 15 will rem tion while 14 w during the big Those who will attend the days are Mrs. I3 wbrell, Mrs. A Jackson, Mrs. F.

Athletics Warm Up The excitement, glamor and offi |eial dignity attached to the world' |series opening battle were replaced by the matter-of-fact prelude to just a ball game, as the Athletics trotted out to warm up for their attempt to make it two straight over the Si. Louls Cardinals. The prospects of a somewhat | warmer and more comtfortable day were for another capacity crowd of nearly 33,000 and & right handed pitching duel between George Earn- shaw, the formee Swarthmore eol- |lege flinger, and Charles Flint Rhem, the somewhat erratic but nevertheless brilliant speedball toss- er of the Red Birds.

Max Bishop, the leadoff man and star second baseman, pounded the first offering of the young battling drill pitcher, Krause, up against the porch of a house in 20th street, fac- ing the right fleld wall. Al Sim- mons, a home run hero yesterday, propelled the ball with considerable vehemence into the left field stands, where some 3,000 bleacher custom- ers were already on hand, hours be- fore game time. Doubt as to Mack's pitching se- lection was dissipated when BEarn- shaw took part in the batting prac- tice and manifested every symptom of being about to take on the enemy. George Walberg, big left hander, also engaged in the workout, but then shagged flies in the outfield as an indication that he was not a likely starter. Hoover Box Still Draped Although President Hoover had gone on his way to Ohio after wit- nessing the opening game, the presi- dential box remained draped in its special bunting. The Cardinals came out Wwith plenty of pepper for practice, dis- playing no signs of being down- hearted ever their first setback. “We figure to get a better share of the breaks and win today,” said Mangger Gabby Street. “That will send us to St. Louis on even terms. with the advantage of playing the next three games on our home grounds.” Before he went back to the bench, Simmons poled a line drive into the left fleld stands that hit and bruised a spectator who falled to dodge quickly enough. It was a terrific wallop that sailed into the crowd without much arching. 3 Chick Hafey, the bespectacled Cardinal outfielder, got the range of the fences when the National leaguers in their gay red and gray uniforms took batting turns. ‘Watkins in Right Field With Earnshaw slated to oppose them, the Cardinals planned tao start George Watkins, a hard lefi handed slugger, in right fleld in- stead of Ray Blades. This was the only prospective shift in either Nne- up. The crowd, with topcoats and furs still a necessity as somewhat chilly blasts swirled _through the ftands, came ip slowl)_to the accompani- ment of brisk tunes from the out- field loudspeakers. Babe Ruth at- tacked the amplifylng horns with line drives on two occasions during the past season but they survivel this, apparently none the worse for wear, Manager Street took no chances ofi his riva] switching from Earn- shaw to Walberg and had a left hander doing duty for a good share of the batting drill. It looked like good insurance anyway, for the Cards are certain to see plenty of additional southpaw firing before the series is aver. Grove said he was ready to go right back in himself, if Mack need- ed him for any rellef duty later in the afternoon but it seemed Robert Moses was entitled to a day off.

LONERGAN NAMED - FOR CONGRESSMAN (Continued From First Page) no hits, no errors, one no errors, none announcement of his candidacy was forthcoming. He is said to have taken the attitude that if the party wanted him he was available but he did not care to enter a contest. Lonergan has always been a fa- vorite with the New Britain elec- torate, notably among ex-service, men in whose behalf he worked un- ceasingly while a member of con- gress. The last time he was elected was in 1918 when he defeated Mayor George A. Quigley of this'city. He carrled New Britain by 298 votes, according to the voting machines, exclusive of the soldier vote which was cast wherever the service men happened to be stationed. Although definite plans have not been completed, Lonergan will un- doubtedly make a strong fight in New Britain as well as elsewhere in the district as he is one of the best campaigners in the democratic party. His opponent, Col. Clarence W. Seymour, will also speak in New Britain during the campaign and will have a strong organization throughout the distriet.
