Well Proms come and go and this year Is one that will be remembered. . Riverside's band got into Pendleton and asked where Riverside was. There is an area outside of Pendleton known as Riverside and there's a Riverside down by Ontario. Don't know where the hand ended up but it was a week la ter that they returned to play for the Riverside High School Jr. -Senior prom, Free!! The Coal Train brought some of the best music that the Hepp ner High School has ever had for their Junior-Senior prom.

The charm that Walla Walla has with its tree shaded streets as the trees meet over head. The oasis that is Hooper, Wash., where the green of the grass and trees meet the des ert. Down town Portland and Sa lem seem to be doing away with their down-town tubs. Down town where Salem has removed their tubs, they have cut out a 3' square of sidewalk cement and planted a tree. I get real excited about Hepp ner's Centennial next year. I'm for adopting a Centennial tree and everybody plant one in his parking strip or yard. Some con sideration should be given to just what kind of tree we need to adopt for our "Centennial Tree". A fast growing tree, a clean tree, a tree without shal low roots. I'd like one that blooms, that has fruit that the birdies like. KINZUA NEWS Psychiatrist Speaks At Drug Series Greenfield Grange met Satur day night at the hall, starting with potluck supper.

If you can't profit from adver tising sompthinp is either wronH with your business or you have nothing to sell. Dr. Warren Hall, staff psy chiatrtst from Eastern Oregon State Hospital In Pendleton was the guest speaker at the last Community Drug Education Meeting. Dr. Hall works almost entirely with drug addicts and alcoholics. A very recent case was an eight year old girl who had been sniffing glue. She had been an "A" student, in school and had dropped to "D's" and "F's" when her parents suspect ed something was wrong. It ap pears now that she has sustain ed serious brain damage to the extent that she has to be instl tutlonalized. It Is to prevent tragic stories such as this and thousands more that happen each year that this series on drug abuse is be ing held. Parents as well as voune people need to realize more fully the real problem and threat to one's mental health and life that drug abuse can cause. Too many parents are not concerned until one of their children or a friend's becomes dangerously involved or hooked on drugs. But then it is usually too late. The only effective cure is prevention. Once mental dls turbances or brain damage oc curs, irreparable damage has been done, and in most cases, victims can never fully recover In visiting a government cen ter for the rehabilitation of drug addicts recently, Dr. Hall lnqulr ed about their percentage of successful recoveries. Only 6 make a recovery (don't have to return to the Institution again), and many of this 6 leave the country or change their name, so it is not really known how many make a successful come back. Alcoholism Major Health Problem Dr. Hall stated that alcohol ism has become a major health problem in Oregon. He stated that one out of every ten deaths in Oregon is due to cir rhosis of the liver, which Is caused almost entirely by drinking. He said that alcohol is an addiction that is always 100 fatal Unless the person stops drinking. "Tension and loneliness are two main reasons why most peo ple drink heavily," he said People who drink for these rea sons are really practicing 'do it yourself psychiatry and this is absolutely deadly." Another serious problem de veloping in our country is the wide use of the- minor tranquil lzers. "we' get people at the hos Dital all the time-who are dsv chologically addfeied to the use of sleeping pills, barbltuates, and tranquilizers. We put them the same ' group therapy classes as the alcoholic," Hall said. "It is the same basic prob lem of turning to drugs to meet everyday stresses and problems of life, rather than finding ac ceptable solutions." Learn to Handle Loneliness Dr. Hal lstressed very strong ly the need for prevention of drug dependence. One very im portant aspect of prevention is to help people find good, ac ceptable ways to handle loneli ness and tension. This needs to be learned at a very young age, This training should be an im portant part of the education that parents and teachers need to give more consideration to. Hall pointed out another im portant area in prevention that of instilling ideals and worthwhile goals and objectives in the minds of our young peo pie. "This will do more than anything else to give 'proof against drug addiction. Good sound Christian principles and character development will go a long way in making youth and everyone responsible, ma ture citizens. This is one area that the church can be of help in preventing drug abuse. Dr. Hall brought out the fact that the best help for people with drinking problems can be given by members of their own family and by other people with similar problems. Alcoholics Anonymous was founded upon this principle and has been a big help to thousands to over come alcohol dependency. Thought and plans are being made toward starting an AA chapter here in Heppner. The Methodist Church has consented for the AA group to meet in their facilities. (By Don Hall).
