To be drunk more than once in a life-time means that although the drinker knows the conse quences of drunkenness, he is willing to accept them. From this basic reasoning, sci entists at Yale University's lab oratory of applied physiology de veloped an interesting experi ment which may or may not be a mirror for some of us. They took 50 men and women and gave them psychological tests which revealed what kind of men and women they were, thirty-four turned out to be "within normal limits" emotion ally, or, at worst, were burdened only with "mild maladjust ments." Use Two Groups By this, the scientists meant the men got along well with women, and vice versa. They had no "severe neurotic traits." If they had emotional problems they handled them well. These men and women were put into "Group One." The other 16 were revealed to be "deviant or disturbed person alities." They were persistently unhappy. They didn't get along too well with the opposite sex. They were "overwhelmed by personality problems." These 16 formed "Group Two." All 50. were then investigated exhaustively. T h e re were no marked differences generally be tween the two groups. But mem bers of Group One had slightly more education and a higher percentage of them were mar ried. Members of Group Two were less healthy. This, the sci entists said, "is consistent with 1 VY2 SPECIALS FRIDAY AND SATURD AY - APRIL 8 AND 9 LIBBY'S Orange Juice 46 oz. cans 3 cans ROSEDALE SLICED We have a Good Supply of the 'Famous PURETA Ready-to-Eat 59V PINEAPPLE No. I Flat cans FRESH LINK one of the basic theses of psy chosomatic medicine, that a rela tionship exists between physical disease and emotional disturb ance." No Teetotalers As to "drinking habits," there were no teetotaler among them, nor was there a single out-and-out alcoholic. Over the long haul, members of each group con sumed about the same amounts of alcoholic beverage and of the same kind. Incidentally, all 50 Spring Increase In Employment Said To Be Slow Salem (U.R) The spring pick up made slow p r o g r es s last month with only about 3600 workers finding jobs, according to the State Unemployment Com pensation Commission. With 48,100 persons still ac tively seeking work, it was the smallest March gain since World War II. Eleven of the commission's 26 offices reported higher employ ment than at this time last year when 52,100 were without jobs. But Portland, Hillsboro, Coos Bay, Eugene, Klamath Falls and The Dalles noted the usual sea sonal revival. More than half of the jobseekers were "in the Salem and Portland metropolitan areas. Expansion Held Back Continued cool weather held back expansion in lumber, con struction and agriculture. The number of unfilled job openings increased 285 to 1010, higher than a year ago but considerably below other recent April figures, Claims filed by insured work ers have eased off gradually in recent weeks with nearly 30,000 still appearing weekly at local offices. The number Is slightly below last year but above others at this period. Compensation Lower - Compensatixn paid-tOr4h..e : un employed last month was $2,747,- 965, about 24 p e r cent lower than in 1954. It also was under the $3,587,497 benefits in March, 1950, and in 1946, but higher than in other post-war yrs With three months remaining, payments for the 1954-5 benefit year now t o t a 1 '$16,243,903, slightly below the 1953-4 figure.

Main Medford "Where You Are Paid To Save" were Italian-Americans the lab oratory is engaged in a long-term study of the drinking habits of Italians and Italian-Americans because, traditionally, they are wine drinkers, consider wine to be food rather than drink, and gave a remarkably low rate of alcoholism. In their break-down of drink ing habits, the scientists found nothing to distinguish the "with in normal limits" people from the "deviant or disturbed per sonalities," until they got to the question -of how many times the men and women had been drunk during their lives. Of the people who were "with in normal limits," 82 per cent had never been drunk or had been drunk only once. Of the "deviant or disturbed personal ities," 56 per cent had been drunk more than once. Mathe matically, the ratio was around three to one. This, the scientists pointed out, was decidedly "sta tistically significant." The report was made by Dr. George Lolli, who is director of the Yale Plan Clinic for Alco holics, Dr. Edith S. Lisansky, and Grace Golder.
