33 Initiated Into Sigma Xi Tuesday At Annual Banquet
A study of the individual differences of men as a method of gaining an insight into human nature was stressed Tuesday by Dr. Roger J. Williams, director of the Biochemical Institute at the University of Texas.
Dr. Williams spoke at the annual banquet of Sigma Xi, national honorary science fraternity in the Student Union. His topic was "Chemical Anthropology-An Open Door."
Role Of Chemist Stressed
Dr. Williams pointed out the role of the chemist in trying to unravel the secrets of man by giving examples of how chemists have discovered basic differences in the makeup of man and how these differences influence him in his habits.
Dr. Williams cited the problem of alcoholism—as an example.
"It has been established that deficiencies in the diet of an individual will lead to a craving for alcohol" he said. "If the body is continually deprived of this dietary deficiency, a certain portion of the hypothalamus of the brain is damaged and does not function correctly. It cries out for more alcohol—much in the same manner as a diabetic person craves sugar."

Thirty-three members were initiated into the Kansas Chapter of the Society of Sigma Xi.
