Debating on the subject of
whether or not the City Basketball

the majority OF amateur basketball
players in the city at the present

The theory so confidently asserted
in many sections, and believed TO be
beyond question, that alcohol in small
doses has a tonic action on the body
giving it additional strength and vi
gor. has no support in modern re-
search; but, on the contrary, its So
called good effects are found 10 be due
to its narcotic action and sleep pro-
ducing properties. The progress of
science has made it possible to meas
ure and test the power and strength
which comes from drugs and food on
the body, and alcohol, judged by this
standard, and by the modern instru-
ments of precision, is found to be a
narcotic.
Thus, for example, a man, temper
ate and well, is carefully measured
from day to day to determine the ca
pacity Of his senses-sight, hearing
taste, smell and touch; also his mus
cular power, fatigue sense, rapidity of
thought, memory and capacity of en-
durance. When these capacities are
determined from an average Of many
days examinations, a basis of COM
parisor is formed. Then the man is
given a half ounce Of spirits, usually
ethylic alcohol in water. for the rea-
son that this form of alcohol is the
purest and most uniform of all spirit
drinks. One hour after the use of the
alcohol he is measured for the pur-
pose of determining what effect, if
any, the spirit has had on these vari-
Gus functio S. 1t is found that they
are all depressed and lowered, the
senses are diminished in acuteness and
capacity, and this can be stated in fig
ures. Thus, the eyesight is diminished
in acuteneSS to the extent of so many
inches of feet, the hearing the same
The muscular output is lowered by so
many pounds, and the fatigue point is
increased, showing diminished capac-
ity for exertion and endurance. The
brain has lost its quickness and moves
more slowly, and this is measure BILE
in seconds. The power of comparing
one thing with another is diminished,
and the percentage of mistakes in
memory tests have increased to nearly
double, and so on with every function
OF the body. The hearts action has
been raised, but has fallen as far be-
low the normal as it was forced above
it. These facts are all strikingly con-
hrmed in intoxicated persons, but 1t is
news to most people that a small dose
OF spirits has precisely the same eff
fect, only differing in degree-T. D.
