1909

Three University of Kansas professors, Dr. James Naismith, physical education; C.B. Root, his assistant; and Dr. Chambers from the medical school, tackled the subject of whether alcohol should be given as a stimulant to "dope" an athlete before a game.

Stimulants tested so far were alcohol, strychnine and spirits of ammonia.
