Biologists Delve Into Latin For Mouse Lore Twentieth century scientists conducting experiments on animals have a forerunner in St. Albert the Great, say Biology majors who will present a panel on St. Albert, Nov. 14, at 4 p.m., in Room 607. Alicia Villarreal, chairman, will discuss the life of St. Albert, and Carol Ann Chodzko will present an outline of the theoretical parts of his De Animalis, an octavo volume of about 700 pages. This zoological treatise, once considered a mere translation of Aristotle, is enormously expanded by St. Albert, who rearranged the ancient work, criticized it, and added his own wide observations, derived through a lifetime of study and travel. De Animalis discusses anatomy, embryology, and physiology. It ranges into applied science, de scribing the falcon and falconry, and includes a long essay on the hi irse. The latter part of the book is a bestiary, or list of animals, includ ing all the known and rumored animals of the world, arranged in alphabetical order and described briefly or in detail. Dolores Wach owiak will discuss it. Carmen del Castillo will read St. Albert's description of the mouse, a 200-word passage translated from the Latin by Mary Ann Ba nich. Carol Brust, and Constance Englert. It represents all the pub lished information about the mouse in the thirteenth century. At present, published knowledge of the laboratory mouse, if brought into one place, would probably make a small library.
