BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

Why one gets drunk quicker on
an empty stomach was explained
to the National Academy Of Sciences
today by two Yale University doctors.
1t is because the intoxicating ef-
fects of alcohol are, up to certain
limits, in roughly inverse ratio to the
amount of sugar in the blood stream,
Drs. Howard w. Haggard and Leon
A. Greenberg of the New Haven
faculty found from experiments with
rats.
But we have evidence" they said
in their report. that men react
similarly"
Their findings seem to be a COM
plete contradiction OF the frequent
warning that mixing sugar and
whisky is one of the surest ways
to acquire a hang over, since one ex-
aggerates the effects OF the other.
They explained that getting
drunk-which Is step on the way to
getting dead drunk and then most
thoroughly dead-is due entirely to
the concentration Of alcohol In the
blood supply to the brain. They dosed
their rats to the irrecoverable ulti-
mate Of drunkenness.
When there was q tenth Of l per
cent of sugar in the blood, they found,
it required close to 10 milligrams of
alcohol per cubic centimeter of blood
to kill a rat. Twelve milligrams were
required when the blood sugar con-
centration was doubled. Only seven
proved fatal when it was reduced to
seven-hundredths of per cent, veIy
close to the vanishing point. But the
protective value Of sugar has It's
limits, and no increase was found
when the concentrations were raised
far beyond any normal probability.
Like Fuel in Furnace.
They interpret the phenomenon as
somewhat akin to adding fuel to the
furnace. Grain alcohol is burned in
the body. Sugar is the physiological
coal. The more sugar present, up
to the point where Tire furnace gets
all clogged up. the more effectively
the alcohol is burned. 30 that 1t can
no longer get to the brain.
They found that methyl alcohol. q
much worse poison than grain al
cohol, Is not reduced by the presence
Of sugar. The same WAS true for
ether, the physiological nechanism
for whose effect Is much the same a
that for alcohol. The reason, they
deduced, Is that neither Of these SUBJ
stances Is burned, but pass out OF
the body in the same form In which
they entered.
The Yale doctors were led to make
these rat experiments, they explained
by observations that victims Of dia-
betes, in which the blood sugar Il
abnormally high, did not get drunk
very easily. After getting . shot Of
insulin, however, the diabetic passed
out" with fewer drinks.
The relative effect Of slipping and
gulptng also was investigated in these
experiments. They found that the
rate 1T which alcohol enters the sys-
TEN IS equally important with the
amount taken in determining tho con-
centrations in the blood, and conse-
quently the degree and speed OF
drunkenness.
As . by-product Of these expert
ments, they reported, they have de-
ve3oped for the 1lrst time methods Of

Ruth Scannell Captures Lead
Creates Upset In Flashing Ahead Of Ceorgie Rizk

There's Q little biue-eyed girl lead- ing a'couple of fighting boys in the Most Popular Baby Contest today. Talk about closet Only Q snsdgin, the rierest fraction, separates the three leaders, tool .s
 But Ruth Ann scannell, twenty two months old, daughter of MT. and Mrs. M. J. Scannell of School street, has done what she prom dsed--beaten the boys to the lead.
 Perhaps 1t was Opportunity Day that did 1t. You know, subscrip- tons received Thursday and until noon today counted 300 votes in- stead of the 200 which they now count again. Maybe Opportunity Day was what Ruth and the other girls who showed large gains yes- terday were awaiting.
 Girls Gaining
 These girls don't like to miss a bargain you'll agree. Even if the girls in the Contest are too young to 90 shopping, their mothers know a good thing when they see 1t.
 So here's the count of the three leaders:
 Ruth Ann scannell ....... .1S,SOO George Risk .............. .12,oSO Randall Saunders ...,..... .12,66O
 Not 1000 votes difference between them, you see. And there are thou- sands of votes to be checked and counted under the Opportunity Day rules. These will be confirmed to- morrow.
 Surprising gains were made by many contenders. Take Randall Saunders, eight months old son of MT. and Mrs. Henry Saunders of

strange to say, they were not sub
stantiated by the actual play.
In the first game the college boys
outplayed the professionals by wide
margin, although the score was 0 to o..
In the second game the pros did have
little the better of the scoring, 5
to O, but the margin was not great
enough to discredit college football.
And last year it was Z to in game
in which the college side had all the
better of the first half and might
have done as well in the second half
if they had not gone back to the
field SO overconfident they became
careless.
Honor and Fun.
It is, of course, an honor for any
player to be elected to the college
squad in national poll that draws
millions of votes and apart from the
honor, it is a lot of fun. The boys
are taken to Chicago, royalty enter
tanned, submitted to the best coach
ing available, thrust forward as heroic
figures in one of the most colorful
spectacles in the world of sport and
permitted to play just one more game
in the college spirit before leaving
football behind them forever or sign
ing contracts with professional teams.
Another Star Game.
In the meantime there is another
All-Star game on the schedule. 1t
is the annual game in which the best
players selected from seven Amer
lean association teams play the first
place team. This year it will be played
in Columbus. The All-Star squad of
IA baseball players will include seven
from Minneapolis and two from st.
Paul.
Thus, the Twin Cities virtually
monopolize the All-Star lineup with
nine of the IA eligible players. The
Miller stars are Carl Reynolds and
Dusty Cooke in the outfield; Harry
Taylor, Andy Cohen and Red Kress
in the infield; Johnny Peacock, catch
er, and Charley Wagner, pitcher. st.
Pauls contributions are Henry Stein
hacker, outfielder and John Pasak,
catcher.
