Students warned about drug abuse Spelling bees have been a challenge for students since the days of the one room schools. Naples Elementary students experienced this test of knowledge Wednesday, March 6 and finished up with four students to send to the district bee set for March 13. Those who spelled their way to winning win-ning were: 1st place; Allison Kinsey of Mr. Farnsworth's 5th grade class, 2nd place; Heather Schwarz of Mrs. Gindler's 5th grade class, 3rd place; Tony lannuccilli of Mr. Nelson's 4th Dr. Don Black, a 25 year veteran in the field of adolescent psychology, pulled no punches in his presentation on the perils of alcohol and drug abuse given at the Junior High-Middle High-Middle School Wednesday. Dr. Black was brought to the school at the request of Macey Buker who arranged the program as an Eagle Scout project on drug awareness. Macey is also overseeing the preparation and distribution of a booklet on drug awareness that will soon be distributed to the students for their use, and to be shared with parents. Buker is a member of troop no. 775. His troop leader is Lou Jensen. Through Buker's efforts and the help of his teacher, Mr. Gerke, the American Education Systems Speakers Bureau sent Dr. Black who is with Brigham Young University-Education University-Education Program and a professional profes-sional counselor, as the keynote speaker for two assemblies. Dr. Black's message encompassed: encompass-ed: the consequences of drugs, case studies, attaining and maintaining self esteem and ways to overcome the denial and hiding of substance abuse by Utah families. He said the response from the students was excellent, and he was impressed with the behavior and maturity of the young people at the school. Dr. Black said he has become increasingly in-creasingly alarmed by the violence and fantasy that is interwoven into peoples lives from the constant portrayals por-trayals in television and movies. He feels this constant bombardment is creating a nation of people immune to human feeling. He said light is being made of murder, vicious acts of violence, drug abuse and moral decadence which seems to be making it acceptable accep-table behavior. His hope is hat peo-' ' pie " will "become 'deternuned " and strong in their stand against this type of media portrayal and that they will be very careful in the choice of influences in-fluences allowed in their home. f ' !

Teachers, Mrs. Powers and Mrs. Giese have projects in the works and others planned to enhance their African studies. Mrs. Powers students have completed paper mache masks in the past week depicting depic-ting part of the culture of some of the African tribes. Both classes have seen movies on the country, prepared and studied maps, investigated the religions, culture,' music and language of Africa. The students said before they studied the country, they thought Africa was a big jungle full of tigers and elephants. They say Egypt, the Nile River and Sahara Desert were all exciting things to learn about. They showed great concern for the starving in Ethopia who are victims of a drought. Mrs. Giese's class is looking forward for-ward to a visit next week from Henry Crellin, a sociologist who lived with an African tribe. He will share his ex-periences ex-periences and knowledge with the students, teach them some African games and more. Some of the 4th grade girls were especially intrigued by the jewelery. body painting and costumes of African natives.
