STRUCTURAL HOMOLOGIES 055367
This program presents physical evidence of structural homologies among many types of vertebrates, insects and plants, and explains why these homologies suggest a common ancestry. It uses fossils to show the development of specialized structures from simpler forms, and demonstrates that what may appear to be a new or different organ may be a variant or modification of something existing in an ancestor. The program presents evidence for co-evolution from examples where entire orders of organisms dependent on one another have developed corresponding structural modification.

STUDIO SYSTEM, THE PART 2 OF 13 056563
Hollywood filmmaking is a rich and thriving art form, but it is also an influential industry - an elaborate money-making machine serving a worldwide market. For much of its history, American film making was a manufacturing system based on the model of mass production. The prog- ram probes the economics of the American film industry by focusing on Paramount Pictures, one of the oldest, largest, and most successful of Hollywood studios. Using Paramount as a case study, the program pro- vides both a survey of Hollywood's industrial past, the era of self- enclosed communitites run by domineering movie moguls - and a window on today's film making environment.

SUE THE DOCTOR? 055310
The practice of medicine is being affected by physicians' fear of malpractice suits. Doctors now must practice as if they will be second guessed by a lawyer and a jury. This tape follows real medical cases step-by-step, stopping at each decision point to discuss the malpractice risks. Nationally, the rate of malpractice suits has increased threefold in a decade and jury awards are averaging almost one million dollars per case, five times higher than they were ten years ago. Lawyers state that the increasing number of suits is justified by medical incompetence. Is this concern forcing doctors to be more careful, or just forcing up the price of health care?

SUGAR AND SPICE 055954
Are we correct in thinking that all people are born equal? There is a growing body of evidence that men and women do not have the same brain structures which may account for some of the differences in behavior between the sexes. As infants, females are more sensitive to touch and sound and more attuned to people than male babies. That these differ- ences exist at such an early age suggests that male and female behav- ior patterns have more to do with nature than with nurture. Scientific studies conducted on laboratory animals and humans show that sexual "wiring" is caused by the particular mix of hormones to which the fetus is exposed in the womb. When the mix of hormones goes wrong during gestation, a variety of different behaviors can result.

SUPERSENSE: MAKING SENSE 055516
Do animals think in some human sense of the word, or are they totally instinctive creatures? This program examines this age-old question. The consensus is that animals do seem to combine learning and instinct A cygnet instinctively knows to follow the first moving object it sees --its mother. When wildebeest migrate to greener pastures, the smell of rain may serve as a guide, along with a strong instinctive drive. But a collective learned wisdom also seems to be transmitted to young herd members as part of the process. Other famous migrators supplement directional instinct and sensing abilities with visual-mental mapping.

SUPERSENSE: SEEING SENSE 055519
This eye-opening program explains how and what animals really see. While it is true that all animals produce visual images by gathering light, their eyes are quite specialized according to need. Thanks to a high concentration of light-sensitive cells on the retina and to stereoscopic vision, humans can perform extremely precise tasks and judge distances accurately. Like humans, gorillas enjoy full color and high resolution pictures, the latter of which result, in part, from a brain that can fill in missing visual information. Yet, a great many birds, insects, fish and mammals are capable of visual feats no human can match.

SUPERSENSE: SENSE OF TIMING 055518
Nature is full of uncanny examples of the rhythmic cycle of life. Some varieties of birds, fish and crabs lay their eggs on virtually the same day every year. Honey bees arrive at flowers just as their petals open, and they can keep track of nine such openings a day. On the average, human females menstruate once per lunar month. Can all such coincidences be accidental? Not according to this fascinating pro- gram! Viewers learn that animal timing is very much controlled by precision-made internal clocks, timepieces set by the rhythms of a natural world, but whose organic mechanisms are not yet well under- stood.

SUPERSENSE: SIXTH SENSE 055521
Human beings perceive the world through the five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. A sixth, or extra sense of perception has long been suspected and conjectured about, yet substantive proof has not been established. This fascinating program points out that in animals, a sixth sense is much more verifiable. Because animals don't possess a large, human-like brain, most compensate with at least one heightened sense. Birds, for example, have exceedingly good vision; dogs can smell up to a million times better than humans; insects are extraordinarily sensitive to sound.

Almost everyone has heard about dog whistles that produce sounds no humans can hear. This program shows that the story of how animals produce and use sound goes far beyond the common canine example. A great many land, sea and flying animas have hearing and sound produ- cing abilities far exceeding what most would ever imagine. Because so much animal sound cannot be detected by the human ear, many animal communication secrets have been unknown until fairly recently. Now we realize that animals navigate, hunt, find mates, track each other and protect themselves by using sound in many amazing ways.

The salmon that travels hundreds or thousands of miles across the ocean to return to the exact location of its birth to spawn and die does so through its sense of smell. Certain birds like pigeons and petrels use smell to navigate and hunt out prey. Some mammals use "alarm" smells to warn of danger, and moths release an aphrodisiac scent as a precursor to mating.

SWEEPERS OF SQUARES, THE 055746
The death of Poland's President Bierut and the rise to power of Soviet Premier Nikita Krushchev brought an end to an era. Sensing a change in the air, intellectuals led student uprisings. A strike in Poznan led to the Soviet decision to support Wladyslaw Gomulka as a compro- mise to further military intervention. During Gomulka's reign from 1956-1970, many state farms were abandoned, political prisoners were released and most of the terror and ideological frenzy was curbed. But structural reforms of the Party and the economy failed to take place. Later uprisings in the late 1960's led to military actions and a new wave of anti-Semitism.

TEACHING INDIANS TO BE WHITE 056526
Schools are where children are taught to integrate into society, and schools represent a major problem for native children, whether they are religious schools with native teachers; residential schools, which tear children away from their families and traditional values to turn them into the white man's conception of civilized people; or public day schools, where native children find it nearly impossible to balance the white view they are taught in school with the language and values they learn at home. Result: the Seminole of Florida resist being integrated, the Miccosukee decided not to fight but to join, and the Cree took back their own schools.
