IN SEARCH OF GLANDS
SEEKING SECRETS OF NATURE. New York. March 30. The Berkeley expedition, sponsored by the University of California, is killing two whales daily and obtaining the pituitary glands for experimental purposes. Carcases are set adrift when the tiny organ at the base of the brain is extracted. A barrel of these glands will finally be delivered to Professor Max Dunn, who hopes to separate the constituent elements, find the agency which causes proportions, and so possibly solve the secret of the structure of all anima! life.
