They are upset about teen ace drinking in southern Mor row County. They are upset because: 1 Some segment of our community is easily supplying alcohol for teens and there seems to be no control of it. 2 There is a group of older teenaee boys who are supply ing alcohol and encouraging vouncer teens to drink. 3. Some local law enforce ment officials have said they do not enforce laws pertaining to teens and drinking. They have received what they per ceive to he a clear signal from the community NOT to strictly enforce those laws. These parents are scared to speak out publicaly because thev see a group of teens who will hound and persecute their children for the parents' stand 1 think this group of teens has eotten away with this kind of behavior because this communitv allows it: Thanks to many people To the editor: We. the Morrow County His tory Book Committee, wish to thank the many people who sent in pictures and stories for the history book, those pur chasing the book, the Gazette Times and Hutch's for adver tising, and evervone else Local Pacific U. student named N.W.C.
