CARL HEMINGWAY I got quite a shock from the ending of the movie that preceded the late news last Friday night, I only saw the last ten minutes or so. Apparently, the two leading male actors were seeking the same com- munity objective by different methods and there was considerable strife. However, they finally co-operated and the effort was suc- cessful and it all .ended with one player saying to the other "Let's go. buy you a cup of COFFEE!" Shades of the early twenties and the O,T.A,! I wonder how many programs I've seen end with "I'll buy you a drink". I had just returned home from a showing of the Appleton- Linklater film on Drug Abuse in the Clinton High School that is being sponsored by the County Health Unit under the direction of Dr. Mills. This, I suppose, made the "coffee" bit more noticeable. Was it just an accident or could it be an acknowledgment by the film makers that there are some people who don't use alcohol to end every event? Could it be that the serious drug problem facing so many Of our. young people has caused adults to take a second look at the exam- ple they are setting? That the drug problem is serious was made abundantly clear by the statements of Dr. Mills, based on the information he was able to gather during the discussions he had with high school students this past week during the course of the film presentations. When we were told that drugs - marijuana, which is pictured as being quite mild, even to the point of being harmless, yet can be highly potent, comparable to "hard" drugs, depending on form and location of growth, LSD, Mescaline, DMT, STP, Amphetamines, Barbiturates, Morphine, Codeine and Heroin - are available in the. corridors not only in our high schools but even in our public schools, we find it hard to believe. When we are told, according to student estimate, from 70 to 90 percent of the students have at least experimented with one or more of these drugs we find it still more difficult to believe, I was ,quite impressed by the Art Linklater presentation of the problem, It- was not spectacular or sensational, • It was the humble, sorrowful and informative story of a man who lost a daughter through just one party and one experiment with LSD. The result was suicide due to a flash-back months later. We have two problems. First, all of us must learn as much as possible about drugs and the symptoms of their-use aleig with,tregtrnents available. 11 Second, we must find out what it is in our society that is en- gouraging so many of our young people to turn to drugs to escape from life. Time is running out. The next victim may be your child or mine. LET US MAKE' YOUR OLD FURNITURE BETTER THAN NEW!
