Pgg^^JjORTHWESTJjERALD Section B Tuesday, August 13,1965 Advice By Abiga i l Van Buren • for wile wants to get married and stick him with a ready-made family, then boom! it's all over! Abby, that's not true. There are some women, like myself, who would Just like to go out with a member of the opposite sex once in a while. If marriage is in the cards, then it will work out. If not, well, it was fun while it lasted. So where does a decent woman meet a decent man? Don't suggest church; 1 don't belong to one. LONELY IN LEHIGH, PA. DEAR LONELY: Here we go again. Decent women meet men where decent people go to entertain themselves, do volunteer work, Im­ prove their minds and bodies, enjoy sports, music and theater, and even to worship the Lord, whether you belong to a church or not They also meet through the thoughtfulness of friends. • • • Century Bound Seniors are safer confined indoors ByBurtGarnett Scripps Howard News Service The news from Miami is that very elderly people are the favorite victims of the current crop of criminals -- especially purse snatchers and robbers. It is not safe, authorities say, for elderly people to go about by themselves -- even in daytime. Oldsters haven't the strength to resist, and often, when attacked, can't yell loud enough to obtain help. People who are informed about criminal behavior say that Miami isn't the only place where old persons are in danger. Several years ago, when my wife and I were walking in downtown Key West, a young fellow grabbed Betty's purse and ran off. I was too startled to do anything at first, but I soon yelled, "Stop, thief!" Several people looked at me, and I pointed at the fleeing youth and two or three people said, "Get the police!" After awhile, policemen showed up and wanted to know what the purse snatcher looked like, how much money was in the purse, where we lived and what we were doing in this part of town. I We were within about 300 yards of home. We had been at Mallory idock, looking at the sunset. After about a week, a policeman called us. •He said the purse had been found under a vacant house. Several identifiable papers and cards were in the purse, but of course no money. JWe were in our 70s, but neither we nor our neighbors were afraid to go out at night, and the street robbery was a rare thing. None of our acquaintences had been victimized and most of our neighbors didn't bother to lock their doors. I think the local crime rate rose when the Southernmost City began to be besieged with "hippies." My condominium is surrounded by fence, and gates limit entry. We oldsters are disposed to stay home or limit visits to others in the compound. I suppose we're fairly safe, as long as we stay home. ..

A medical expert says using them is like playing Russian roulette. An­ other medical expert calls them the street drugs of the future. 'They also are legal. They are all talking about "de­ signer drugs" -- the synthetically made, highly potent, inexpensively produced, enormously profitable narcotics that appeared in Califor­ nia six years ago and now are on the brink of going nationwide. . "Potentially, it's a frightening nrqblem," says Dr. J. William jLangston, .chairman of the depart- ihept bf .neurology at Santa Clara Valley Mwittal Center in San Jose, Calif. That potential became a night­ marish reality for the more than 100 people who have died from design- erndrug overdoses in recent years. At. least seven other people who had a 4ad batch of drugs in northern California three years ago are now showing symptoms of Parkinson's disease, which normally afflicts the elderly. "Designer drugs open up a 20th Ceqtury Pandora's box of high-tech defcth and addiction," says Sen. Patila Hawkins, R-Fla., who recent­ ly held a congressional hearing to look into the problem. The Job for law enforcement au­ thorities now is to try to block de­ signer drugs from doing what LSD did in the 1960s and PCP did in the 1970s, that is, spreading from Cali­ fornia to the rest of the nation. Marriage is convenient DEAR ABBY: I have been married for near­ ly three years to a very beautiful 23-year-old woman. I am 30. Our marriage hasn't been "perfect, but I considered it better than average, with one exception--"Betty" has no interest in sex. Once every two or three months is enough for her; then she acts like she's doing me a favor. When I try to discuss it with her, she gets angry. Despite our differences, I have given her all my devotion and a very comfortable life with all the material things a woman could want--a lovely home, clothes, Jewelry and a car of her own. Two weeks ago I discovered that Betty had been seeing a married man. I was shocked and hurt. When I confronted her, she admitted it, and told me she'd never been physically at­ tracted to me; she married me because I had money and she wanted to get out of her parents' home. She says she "loves me"--but not in a physical way. Betty doesn't want a divorce. She says she's strongly attracted to the married man and will not give him up. She insists tffat she wants to save our marriage, but needs to see her lover twice a week. I find this totally absurd and unacceptable. Abby, is this marriage worth saving? HURTING HUSBAND DEAR HURTING: You didn't have much of a marriage in the first place. By Betty's own admission, she used you. You may qualify for an annulment. DEAR ABBY: Everybody writes to you to get something off their chest; well, now it's my turn. Does anyone realize how difficult it is for a woman with a child to get a date? Once a man finds out a woman has a child, he assumes she High-tech drugs going nationwide The job will not be easy, and ultimately may be impossible. "I think certainly it will spread unless we cut it off. This is one fad I'd like to stop in the bud," says California Attorney General John Van de Kamp. Designer drugs -- a term coined by Gary Henderson, of the Universi­ ty of California-Davis department of pharmacology -- are made by taking the formula of a controlled narcotic and changing it slightly. Because authorities must specify the make up of drugs they want declared illegal, the analogs -- or "chemical cousins" -- fall out of the reach of the law. In the past, by the time authori­ ties got through the lengthy process of identifying and outlawing one synthetic drug, a new analog was on the street. The concept of designer drugs is not new. Analogs of mescaline ap­ peared in the late 1960s, and chemi­ cal variants of methaqualone, PCP and amphetamine have surfaced in the last decade. All eventually were outlawed. The term designer drugs hit the national vocabulary recently with the July 1 banning of MDMA, a speed-related drug known as "Ec­ stasy." But there are more danger­ ous -- and in certain cases still legal -- heroin substitutes on the street. "The novel aspect of the current wave of designer drugs," Drug En­ forcement Administration chief John Lawn told Congress recently, "is the production of very potent analogs of synthetic narcotics which have been substituted for heroin." The Lady a native of Jersey RIVER EDGE, N.J. (UPI) - A newly discovered document conclu­ sively proves the Statue of Liberty is actually located in New Jersey and not New York, a New Jersey state historian says. "There can be no argument any­ more whose Jurisdiction Liberty stands in," Kevin Wright said Sun­ day. Wright is a historian for the New Jersey division of Parks and Forestry, and curator of the Steu­ ben House museum in River Edge. Wright said he has uncovered an official treaty between New York and New Jersey, signed in 1889, that proves Miss Liberty stands square­ ly within New Jersey and rightfully belongs to the Garden State. The.historian's assertion is the lStBSrin a long-running dispute be­ tween the two states over the bronze statue on Liberty Island, 300 yards off the coast of New Jersey and about 2 miles off New York. New York officials, basing their legal arguments on an 1834 docu­ ment, have long claimed Liberty Island as their own. New York also lays claim to nearby Ellis Island, once the gateway to America for millions of immigrants from around the world. "The current legal dispute con­ stantly quotes an 1834 document -- an anchronistic treaty," Wright charged. The statue has a New York postal address, is protected by New York police, and pays her state and local taxes from tourism funds to New York. Her symbol adorns New York o f f i c i a l d o c u m e n t s a n d advertisements. t
