You May Forget; Or Not

By JOHN BARBOUR NEW YORK thing you've ever thought. done. or aaid—a complete 0 every conscious moment -— is logged in the comprehensive com- titer of your rain. You'll never be able to recall more than the tinest fraction of

‘ times last year's budget, and the . it to memory. But you'll never

lose it. either—not this side of earth.

These are the findings of Dr. Wilder Penfield. director of the Montreal Neurological Institute.

The brain's ability to store ex- periences. many lying below con- sciousness. has been recognized for some time. But the extent of this function. as report r. Penfield. is startling.

HOLDS DETAIL

"(he must conclude." he says. "that there is. hidden away in the brain. a record of the stream of consciousness. to hold the detail of that stream as laid down during each man's waking. conscious hours.

"Contained in this record are all those things of which the in- dividual was once aware; such detail as a man might hope to re- member for a few seconds or minutes afterward. but which are largely lost to voluntary recall after that time. The things he ig- nored are absent from the rec- Dr. Penfield told the National Academy of Science he came across the phenomenon in work with epileptic patients over the last 20 years.

He cites the case of a 14-year- old girl whom we'll call Barbara.

“She was complaining of seiz- ures during which she sometimes fell unconscious to the ground in an epileptic convulsion." the doc- tor said. “But immediately pre- ceding such an episode she was aware of what seemed to be an hallucination. It was always the same. an experience came to her from childhood." I-‘RIGHTENING EXPERIENCE The experience was one of right. She would be walking through a meadow with her brothers who had run ahead of her. Behind her came a man. carrying a bag. He .told her he had snakes in the bag. She be- came scared and ran ahead to her brothers.

It was a true occurrence and for some years afterward she had nightmares about it. Finally

Notice; But It Registers

FRIC-HT R CUR8 I

Stimulating Barbara's brain at- another point made her think al lot of pie were shouting at« her. Three times without advance . notice Dr. Penfield stimulated‘ the same area again. Each time Barbara broke off her conversa. tion to tell of hearing the voices. of her bmthers and her mother. Each time she was frightened. |

After several operations. Bar. bara was cured of epilepsy. But. her case had provided Dr. Peril field with his second experience with such memory behavior. He has recorded many similar in; stances since these first occur rences in the 19305.

One patient heard music play lng—a definite piece and arrange ment.

Each time a certain point in the brain was stimulated she was even able to hum along with the orchestra she heard.

In the great majority of cases. Dr. Penfield explained. the re called experiences were not con nected with previous epileptic at tack.

Each point seems to have a place on the brain's recorded strip of time." Stimulated at two points very close together. a young boy heard his mother talk- ing on the phone. A little later when the electrode was set down between two points. he heard his mother talking to his brother. NOT MEMORY

Dr. Penfield found thgt two points could not be activated at the same time—so there was no confusion. Further. he said:

This is not memory. as usually use the word. although may have a relation 0 it. No man can recall by voluntary ef fort such a wealth of detail. A man may learn a song so he can sing it perfectly but he cannot recall in detail any one of the many times he heard it.

Most things that a man is able to recall to memory are genera izations and summaries. If were not so. we rnlght find our

selves confused. perhaps. by too great in richness of detail." ‘

Dr. Penfield recalled that Hip: pocrates, the father of medicine. believed the brain enables a man to think. hear. and see—and tell ugly from beautiful. bad from. i

ood.

His own findings. the neurosur gcon said. might be a step to; ward answering how the brain» does these things.

When we make a decision or are called on to relate an ex; perience. there is a key some where in the temporal lobes off ‘he brain which siwftly scans the, past. allowing us better to judgci the present.

Old faithful John Wayne broke up the youngsters by coming in aeco in the poll. which he headed in 1950. 1951 and 1954.
