saving a 6-foot British soldier from

SIeepIess Sentries
In Brain Regulate
Breathing Process
One Controls Inspiration
And the Other Expiration.
Scientists Discover
BY THOMAS r.. HENRY,
Star Staff Correspondent.

CHICAGO, April 1.-TWO Sleep
less sentries in the watch tower of
the brain regulate breathing.
One controls inspiration and the
other expiration.
Localization of these two vital
brain centers was reported before
the American Physiological Society
here today by Drs. Lindsay E. Beaton
and H. w. Magoun of Northwestern
University.
1t long has been known that
breathing is under the control OF
a tiny area of tissue In what is
called the "olivary nucleus" in the
medulla oblongata, the bulge at the
top of the spinal cord which marks
the beginning of the brain. This
acts automatically and is not under
the control of the will.
Breath Starts Automatically.
A person cannot commit suicide
by holding the breath. The lungs
inhale oxygen which combines with
carbon in the tissue, by a very simi-
lar process as that in which it COM
bines with coal in a furnace, to
produce the slow fire of life. An
excess of the mildly poisonous gas
carbon dioxide is formed. The
breathing center in the base of the
brain is very sensitive to this gas
and starts the breathing process
at once when 1t begins to pile up
in the tissues.
Drs. Beaton and Magoun explored
this tiny breathing center with an
electric current. They found a
little strip of tissue less than a
tenth of an inch wide which, when
ever stimulated, caused air to be
inhaled. In a narrow ribbon sur
rounding 1t an electric stimulation
causes the breath to be exhaled.
Location Varies Slightly.
They carried out their experiments
with monkeys and cats under
anesthesia and found that the
location of the two breathing centers
varied slightly between the two
animals-evidence that nature has
experlmented with II IN the eYOlu-
ton of the species.
In further experiments on brain
localization reported by Drs. Clinton
N. WoOlsey and Edward M. Walzl of
Johns Hopkins University it was
determined that every musical
vibration is heard in separate area
of the brain.
They traced nerve fibers from the
cochlea, or organ of hearing in the
inner ear, to the auditory center OF
the top of the brain which lies Just
above the ears. These fibers were
stimulated by electric currents and
the paths of the currents traced.
1t can be determined, they said
that each sound vibration stimulates
only one nerve ending in the inner
ear. Since the tests showed that
each fiber led to a different place
it was deduced that there is a brain
area specialized for every note of
the scale.
The "ear for music" presumably is
a fine development of these differ
ent areas.
