has been established by Sam Fran

his pet event, putting the shot. Al-
tbo Sam's best distance, 51 feet

relays, this meet was the first trial
of the year and so far Francis has
failed to better that put. However,
this record stands up thruout the
nation as the best effort on the
part of any weight man.

scorer in all the meets this year,

NEBRASKA STUDENTS TAKE
PILLS FOR COATING TESTS
Pills or tablets, whether they be
tasteless or coated with a thin
layer of sugar, are disliked by the
adult as well as the child. But sev
eral University of Nebraska stu
dents forgot this childhood buga
boo and without coaxing of any
sort, offered themselves as sub
jects to be used in a laboratory
investigation set up for the pur
pose of testing the efficiency of
pill coating. They swallowed pill
after pill, from the smallest variety
to the largest capsules. Every
known type of enteric coating ma
terial was tested on pills and tah
lets of various sizes and shapes
in an attempt to find the exact
point of disintegration.
The procedure used was inter
esting and effective. Tablets were
compressed from granulation
masses prepared in the pharmacy
laboratories, which tablets con
sisted chiefly of barium sulphate,
a substance impervious to the
X-ray. Under the direction of Prof.
F. S. Bukey of the pharmacy staff,
assisted by Phyllis Rhodes, Mar
jorie Brew, Charles Bliven, and
Lucille Mills, all graduate students
from Lincoln, the subjects were
given the desired number of pills,
generally four or six. The first
picture was taken in about two
hours followed by others at two
hour intervals until disintegration
was complete.
To date Bukey has taken more
than 1,000 radiographs and the ex
periments have already exploded
theories still popular in this field
of science.
"Many different materials have
been used in the preparation of
enteric coatings, but many are of
little value," says Professor Bukey.
Keratin, a tablet coating made
from protein material obtained
from horn and feathers has been
used extensively and is the best
enteric material of a nonsecret na
ture today. Shellac is another sub
stance which is said to have value
as a pill coating, but our examina
tions prove that it is of no value.
In a similar fashion the university
pharmacists have been able to cor
rect a fallacy handed down for
more than 85 years, namely, the
high efficiency of Balsam of Tolu
as a protective coating for pills.
Radiographs have shown this coat
ing to be as impervious to the
fluids of the digestive tract as lead
shot.
"The question of how long a
tablet will remain in the stomach
has been a disputed point for many
years, according to the Univer
sity professor. "We found that the
same individual reacted differently
on succeeding days to the same
sized tablet. Medicaments of this
type might remain in the stomach
two hours today and eight hours
tomorrow while our records show
that pills remained in one stomach
for 36 hours. Generally speaking,
the largest number emptied be
tween 2 and 7 hours.
Tablets taken in the morning
passed out of the stomach in less
time than those given at noon. As
nearly as it could be calculated the
average emptying time was three
hours for morning, five hours for
noon and seven hours for evening.
which is probably due to the fa
tigue of the subject as the day
progressed. The size and shape of
the pill and the type of enteric
coating have no effect on the
length of time it remains in the
stomach."
Professor Bukey is continuing
this line of research on two com
