Volunteersv Bring New Term Alcohol World Of Sight To Many "a"'on's "?• 1 ' Drug Problem Alcohol remains the nation's number one drug problem, according to a psychiatrist who heads the Veterans ad­ ministration's alcohol and drug dependency treatment in Minneapolis, Minn. Dr. Richard 0. Heilman said alcoholics outnumber all other drug dependent people by 20 to one. Among the young, alcohol is still the most commonly used drug by a ratio of at least two to one, he pointed out. I!!!!!!!! This ratio will not be significantly altered until society radically modifies its drinking attitudes and prac­ tices, Dr. Heilman told a group attending a three-day seminar at the Minneapolis VA Hospital. Describing alcohol as a "powerful mind drug," Dr. Heilman said that anyone who responds positively to the question, "Is your drinking ever different from what you would like it to be?" probably is an alcoholic. He said other clues are gulping drinks, drinking alone, preoccupation with being able to drink the next time, in­ creased tolerance for alcohol, use of alcohol as a medicine, blackouts when there is dif­ ficulty recalling some of the events of the previous evening, and efforts to protect the supply of alcohol. Dr. Heilman is a faculty member of the University of Minnesota's School of Public Health and Department of Psychiatry and is a psychiatric consultant to Hazelden, a treatment center at Center City, Minn. He formerly was director of the alcohol and drug program at Willmar State hospital. Fathers are people who expect their sons to work like they never did.

Why Pay More WE BELIEVE IN OUR DOLLAR What do you do if you're eight-years-old, have no old eyeglasses to give, but feel strongly you want to help other people see better? For Harriet, a third-grader in a suburban school, the solution was simple...she sold some of her toys. • That's how "New Eyes For The Needy", a volunteer Short Hills, N.J. organization, wound up with $13.75 in the mail one day. What makes the happening even more unusual is the fact that in its 40-year history, "New Eyes" has never had a fund drive. It solicits, instead, old eyeglasses, precious metal scrap, silverware, dentures with bits of gold and silver, and antique and costume jewelry. The glasses, almost a million pairs received last year alone, are graded and sorted and bring new sight to im­ poverished people all over the world. The precious metal scrap is melted down, and the money from the reclamation, plus the Sate of usable jewelry and silverware, goes to"NewEyes" funds established in eighty hospitals all over the country, Canada and Puerto Rico to pay for new prescription glasses, or if needed, artificial eyes. That's where Harriet's $13.75 went. The plastic framed glasses are used to fill orders from medical missions in such far off places as the Philippines, Guam, and Africa. Though "New Eyes" has an international reputation, few know it is run by a small group of about 250 persons ~ mostly housewives. When the organization was incorporated in 1947, its entire treasury consisted of 47 cents. Nobody can really say how many lives have been brightened because hundreds of thousands of strangers have thoughtfully sent their old eyeglasses to "New Eyes". But every now and then the mailbag provides a clue: "You have made this a beautiful new world for me. Again I thank you and all who made this wonderful miracle available." Maybe the next miracle will come from you. The address is New Eyes For The Needy, Short Hills, N.J. 07078. The One And Only ! ! I CANADIAN CLUB Fifth n&BM (mi a i^wuon *** CAUON SV CMiMj!
