*******************
Dr. Jonas discovered further connections: gynaecologists calculated the
probable date of birth from the date of the last menstruation. Seldom did
the date predicted by them coincide with the actual birth date. Dr. Jonas
gathered a great number of cases and found out that in 54% of the cases the
birth took place sooner than predicted. The difference was up to 46 days,
while in 34% of the cases the term was longer, up to 57 days. In only 12% of
the cases did the birth coincide with the gynaecologist's calculation. Only
normal newborns (normal weight and size) were included in the statistics.
Pathological cases were left out.

It was clear that the menstruation could not be used as a starting point for
such calculation. Dr. Jonas helped himself with a more objective indicator:
the size and weight of the newborns and divided them in three groups:

Oversize newborns over 3800g and over 51cm with an average pregnancy of 9
months and 13 days. Number of cases: 14%.
Average newborns between 3000 and 3800g or 45 to 50cm; pregnancy of 8 months
and 20 days; Number of cases: 76%.
Undersize newborns between 2200 and 3000g or 45 to 50cm; pregnancy of 7
months and 20 days. Number of cases: 10%.
Dr. Jonas then elaborated the so-called "Q" table for all the types of
pregnancy from their beginning according to the weight and size of the
fetus. Gynaecologists recognized this table, with Prof. Hudcovic remarking:
"Even this had to be done by a psychiatrist."

Using the Q Table, it was easy for Dr. Jonas to review some 8,000 birth as
they followed one by one at four maternity clinics and hospitals from
January till December 1960. He specified the time of conception, the gender
of conceived, their viability or non-viability. From the given material he
further derived rules governing the conception of twins, their gender, their
viability (altogether 13 combinations). He checked a great number of heavily
deformed fetuses (born headless and with other serious defects). A
gynaecologist, Dr. Jiri Malek, and an astronomer, Dr. F. Link, both from
Prague, reviewed this material.

Thereupon, Dr. Malek asked Dr. Jonas to calculate, in front of a committee
of gynaecologists, at least 50 cases of gender of newborns while unaware
whether making a calculation for a boy or a girl. Two committees were
formed: one in a maternity hospital in Nitra and one at the second maternity
clinic in Bratislava. The results were good: 83% correct! Dr. Malek invited
Dr. Jonas to the Academy of Sciences in Prague to lecture about his
hypotheses and the results of his research at the First National Conference
on Biorhythms in December 1964.

Dr. Jonas sent his discoveries to Prof. Kurt Rechnitz, the Head Doctor of
the First Maternity Clinic in Budapest, and a recognized astronomer who
understood the substance of these discoveries with little need of
explanation. Dr. Jonas soon obtained the news that the results of the local
maternity hospital confirmed his findings. (...)
