Still No Explanation For Man's Capacity
Stanford University, Calif.—(UP)—Science still is unable to explain why some persons can drink heavily while others cannot, according to Dr. Henry Newman of the Stanford University faculty.
Experiments have been made at the university to prove or disprove every thesis that has been advanced on the subject. They were all found untrue.
"Many people," said Dr. Newman, "believe an habitual heavy drinker can 'take it' because alcohol passes more slowly into his blood stream. But experiment showed that the chronic drinker's blood absorbs alcohol more rapidly.
"Many believe that alcohol goes more slowly to the brain of the heavy drinker, but our workers here found it goes more rapidly.
"Others suggest that the habituated drinker remains sober because his body burns up the alcohol at a high rate of speed. But our experiments showed alcohol is burned up in bothateur and professional drinkers at exactly the same rate."
Dr. Newman holds that the only possible explanation is that the chronic drinker has acquired some mysterious "tolerance" to alcohol, a mechanism that permits him to absorb alcohol without showing its effects.
