Marijuana Initiative
by Jrrry liarn rr
The Citizen» Against Marijuana
legalization held a pres» conference
T uesday to announce plans to defeat the
Oregon Maniuana Initialise (Ballot
Measure 5).
Slate Representative Margaret Car
te r. Co C h a ir, C itizens Against
Marijuana legalization, argued that
Ballot Measure 5 w ill escalate the use
and abuse o f drugs "Oregon is already
dubbed as heing the gateway and oppor­
tunity tor drugs To send this type of
message further perpetuates the prob­
lems we have in the Slate lo t drug ac­
tivities "
Throughout the press conference,
opponents attacked Ballot Measure 5
They said the measure is "intentionally
poorly u o rd e d " in order to confuse
people
" I f Oregonians know what it means,
they w ill vote the measure down in
November,'* said Stale Representative
Paul Phillips Phillips, who also is co-
Chuirman o f the Citizens Against
Marijuana Legalization, said the Ore
gon Maniuana Initiative would make it
legal for anyone IK and over to grow
and possess unlimited amounts of
marijuana Phillips also said, "the
maniuana initiative is a built in dclense
for the criminals The law enforcement
officers and the courts have the burden
o f proof . " ITiis means unless a person
is caught selling and/or distnbuting,
they could claim personal consumption
and it would he d ifficu lt to disprove
Opponents ol the marijuana initiative
said it the Measure passes, it would
allow manjuana to be used in restaur
ants and while driving a car They said
there is nothing wntten in the initiative
to control where this "consum ption"
w ill take place
State Representative. Mike Burton
said Ballot Measure 5 w ill he bad for
Oiegon's business and higher educa­
tion. Burton said, "w hat happens when
we tell Japanese businessmen, who we
are trying to attract into this State, and
when we say come to Oregon because
we have the availability o f drugs and
manjuana ’ W ho's going to hire Oregon
graduates from the universities, where
we have the availability o f drugs to the
level it w ill be if this Measure is pas­
sed?"
The panel said Oregonians must join
their efforts to defeat Ballot Measure 5
Alledging proponents o f the Measure
are spending over a m illion dollars,
plus they said the National Organiza
lion for the Reform o f Manjuana 1 aw s
has targeted Portland The national or
ganization w ill hold its annual conven­
tion in Portland. Thursday through
Saturday.

Can Actually
Help You
Feel Happy
Acting the way you wish you fell —
happy, relaxed — can help you feel that
way, reports the June Reailrr' i ZJigfir
In a research study conducted at the
University o f California Schixil of
M edicine
in
San
Francisco,
psychologist Paul F.kmanand (w ool his
colleagues had volunteers make six fa­
cial expressions, each signifying a
specific emotion surprise, disgust,
sadness, anger, fear and happiness
When the volunteers looked afraid,
their bodies reacted as it they were af­
raid Their heart rates speeded up and
their skin temperatures dropped For
the most part, the same thing happened
with the other emotions
How can we pul this principle to
work in our own lives? Here arc some
suggestions
• Smile to cheer yourself up. And
make a real effort A false smile —
one that’ s too sudden, too brief, uses
the mouthbut not the eyes — doesn't
work Star, with a gentle smile and
then hmaden it into a big, glowing
grin Next, laugh Think o f some
thing funny, or read aloud a humor
ous passage from a book
• Relax Io reduce anxiety o r fear. A
common fxxly-relaxing technique is
to tense the musc les o f the hands and
gently let go The same can he done
with the muscles o l the arms, the face
and so on Picturing yourself in a
relaxing place, such as a beach, also
helps
• Took your best Io increase your
self-confidence. Primp, preen, dress
up and stand erect l.ixiking good
w ill help you believe in yourself —
and make others believe in you. tixi
• Keep cool in a crisis. To remain
calm, look calm Keep your move­
ments steady and smooth, and keep
your speech crisp but unhuined
In short, acting the pan can not only
carry you through d ifficu lt times, hut
help you earn rave reviews from those
