Scientists have for several months tested a potato encased in an aluminum alloy container like the one which will take it into space.

The container is a Space Defense says "the possibilities of this thing are enormous. If Spudnik accom plishes what we expect, its po tential in the study of the entire area of biological science is staggering." Spudnik is designed to probe what Tine calls the "riddle of If biorythmicity, one of the five most important in biological science." Pine said biorythmicity describes the tendency of living organisms to become active at regular, predictable intervals.

It's designed to do the pumping work of an ailing human heart, for days or weeks, and then could easily be removed. And it has passed careful tests in animals, a famous surgeon said today.

The spare heart, powered by a bedside air pump, should be available for first human use within a month, said Dr. Michael E. Debakey of Baylor University Medical Center. Its first trial in a suitable patient could come anytime "within a year," he said. The plastic heart is truly a spare, to be placed between a person's ribs.
