6-Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, May 26th, 1982 Giraduates Miss Lisa Irene Hamre, daughter of Rod and Diane Hamre of Orono, gradluated on Saturday, May 15, 1982 from Sir Sanford Fleming College in Peterborough. Lisa graduated with honours from the Correc- tional Practices Program, Law and Security. Speaks at Clarke on Drug Abuse By: Wendy Procher Norman Panzica was ap- pointed by H.0. Kniapper, area superintendent of Nor- thumnberland and Newcastle Board of Education, to make a presentation on Druig Abuse locally. On Wedniesdlay, May 12, P'anzica w-.ho is a senior con- sultant 10 the Counicil on Drug Abuse spoke with students at the Pines Senior Public School anid also at Clarke High School. Thec range of students graded f'rom grades rive to thirteen. Later that evening he spoke at an open public meeting at Clarke High School and everyone was welcome. The Counicil on Drug Abuse, C.O.D.A., is a full- fledged, non-profit, fedierally-chartered agency which presents programrs of preventive education, design- ed for Canadians who direct- ly or indirectly are involved in drug abuse. This agency was behind Knapper in per- suading Mr. Panzica who has a degree in psychology from McMker University, to ad- dlress schools in the area. Mr. Panzica discussed situations with the audience and explained the way things are. Everyone seemed to be very content in isteninig, for there always seemed to be silence when Panzica spoke. There are miany things to be said about drugs or alcohol but these main.points were the answers to the cer- tain questions that the au- dience was not clear about. Firstly, Panzica explained that coffee does flot make a drunk - sober, it simply results in having a wide- awake drunk. Narcotîcs, will nleyer be legalized, the government is emnbarrassed for éven think- ing of such a thing. One drug is as harmful as the other. One j oint of marijuana.has the same effect on a person's lungs as 24 cigarettes. If a person simply goes to sleep after just mixing alcohol (which is a downer) and drugs (which is anl upper), the resuits in the mior- ning will be shaky hands for one tling. The reason for this effect is that the upper and the downer are pushing against each other. The downer soon wears off leaving- the upper which is still reacting, in your system. Mr. Panzica wasn't at the schools to tell the students what is "wrong or right" or "1good or bad" or even what you "should or shouldn't do." He simply wanted to clear up any confusion to and to explain the effects and harm that drugs and alcohol can do to a person . Panzica has been very suc- cessful onthis topic as since 1960 he decided through ex- perience that he personially would begin to help drug ad- dicts and over the early years, by bringing a total of 51 ad- dicts into his own home, he achieved a sum of 49 suc- cesses.
