It was I the first club luncheon since thej general overhaul or tne premises, i Mr. Young said the phenomenon' of returning animals to life, after! an apparent death from freezing.; had attracted the attention of i Deonle slnte the earliest times. He told of a report made by Sir John Franklin In 1824 of carp bdng frozen In the far north and. when thawed out before a fire, recovering animation. Experiments on butterflies show-led that the temperature of the body ' wat lowered and raised corresponding to the temperature of the atmosphere without apparent harm to the butterfly. Another experiment showed that the temperature of bats could be reduced to 16 degrees F. without injury to the animal. It was later dis covered that the winter sleep was due to the accumulation of carbon dioxide and the appearance of ace- jtone in the blood. Consequently !if carbon dioxide, and possibly ace- tone, were introduced Into the blood of a warm-blooded animal. It may ! be changed into a cold-blooded one. A peculiar reaction in reducing the temperature was discovered In experiments on a sturgeon. A spec ial type of electrical thermometer was Introduced Into the body of the fish and then the freezing process commenced. The temperature fell gradually until 14 degrees F. when a sudden Jump took place, the temperature of the fish rising suddenly to 29 degrees F.. remaining at I that point for a short time and then gradually going down. This i jump in temperature was found to correspond with the dllng of liquids. No actual freezing of the body took place until after t this jump. Temperature of fish could be safely reduced until the jump occurred after which death followed rapidly. From this it seemed that there was a state which was Induced by lowering of temperature In which the organism was neither living nor dead. The organizm was not dead because It can be revived. The name given to this suspended animation was "Anablasls." Dr. Borodin of Harvard described an Investigation in which he took an Alaska blackflsh out of an electric refrigerator frozen stiff as shoe leather and dropped it into water. Within two mluntes the fish began to twitch and a few minutes later was swimming about briskly. The fish had been frozen and apparently dead for forty minutes. Various reports on this subject were very confusing but conflicting evidence was probably reconciled on the theory of the "thermal Jump" An organism held for some time in a freezing atmosphere was not necessarily frozen. The point following the Jump was where freezing commences. The superficial muscles of the fish might be frozen but not the vital organs. Mr. Young pointed to the fact that many Insects and some bacteria would withstand freezing but he refused to believe that fish completely frozen could be permanently revived.
