Members of the city council and school board at Frederic- ton, the province's tal, have said they were shoc! at an increase in drinking among the city's school students. Few organizations in New Brunswick have attempted to battle the teen-age liquor prob- lem, but Dr. J. E.

The Times and Transcript survey--dealing with a cross- section of youths -- indicated most drinking teen-agers got their first taste of alcohol at about 15 years of age. Half of them obtained their first drink from friends, 20 per cent from illegal outlets and most of the remainder from government stores. Most of the youths said they drank on weekends, but six per cent said they drank on a daily basis, About 75 per cent said they had been intoxicated at least once. About 10 per cent said they frequented taverns and a like anfount said they he If there fs an increase in drinking among teens, what are BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE the reasons? "I think most are curious to find out what effect Uquor has on them," said a_ teen-ager uestioned in the Times and ranscript survey. "Others are dared to drink. If they don't they're left out of the group." "If I drink it's usually caused by trouble or moodiness," si another. "I do it to relieve the tiredness."' "There's an increase in drink- ing because there is too much advertising of liquor and be- cause of a lack of education as to the effects of liquor and how to drink properly," one youth said, Angus (Gus) MacFarlane, di- rector of athletics and physical education at Mount Allison Uni- versity, Sackville, N.B., said the time has gone when society can give sheets of factual in- formation about the problems of alcohol to teen-agers and expect them not to drink, "The bright, intelligent young people of our day have all the information that is necessary," Mr, MacFarlane said. 'They need the sincere interest of older people, They need help from their teachers, parents and friends if they are going to learn how to handle liquor. "The facts are available to all these kids. But facts don't mean much to most of them, They're influenced by people." drank at home. AJAX (Staff) -- A 72-year-old Ajax woman was the victim of a $785 fraud last weekend. Ajax Police withheld the woman's name to save her embarrass- ment, At 1 p.m., Thursday she re- ceived a telephone call from a supposed "bank investigator' who informed her that the Bank of Montreal in Ajax had been under surveillance by them because they suspected irregularities and felt that some employees had been stealing money from some accounts in- cluding her own. The teleph caller ri ed that she withdraw $785 from her account, being careful not to spoil the fingerprints and swore her to secrecy. She was informed that a bank messen- ger would call for the money and that it would be returned to her account after it was checked. The caller advised her that she would be informed at 7 p.m. Friday that her money was rs back in her account. When the Ajax woman re- Ajax Woman Defrauded Of $785 Bank Account ceived no call, at the specified time, she informed police, By this time the fraud artists were undoubtedly well on their way. The lady described the mes- senger who picked up the money to the police as being in his late 40's, with a swarthy complexion and a heavy build, about 5 feet 8 inches tall. Ajax Police Chief C. G. Dunn informed the banks four months ago about the procedure the criminals were using to de- fraud elderly persons of their ioe usually between $400 and how the knowledge of the vic- tim's bank account came to the attention of the criminals.

You will have two weeks and no longer." Two Oshawa youths pleaded not guilty of consuming liquor' while under age.
