One Binge Only Growing Up Experiment;
Do It Again, You Accept Consequences
By DELOS SMITH
United Press Science Editor
New York CU.R) To be drunk
once in a life-time could be "a
growing up experiment, like
smoking behind the barn."
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

one of the basic theses of psy

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

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.
Estimates for the entire 12
months range around 20,000,000
as compared with the record

"Where You Are Paid

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.
