Show Use of (alcohol and drugs in Nebo District Jimmy Stoivort dona his papers to BYU December 26, 1984 - The Springville Herald Five Childhood By Michael Olson Nebo. District studetnts on the whole, use alcohol and drugs slightly less than students throughout the state, and students in Utah use them slightly less than students throughout the nation. That was the message delivered during the last week's Nebo Board Meeting when the results of a survey taken last April were reported by Dr. Steven Bahr, who had helped administer such surveys to seventeen Utah School districts at that time. Bahr reported that the survey was completely anonymous and is highly accurate in its information according ac-cording to strict guidelines used in testing its results. Nebo had not conducted such a survey since 1972, and the new one shows a decrease in alcohol use but a slight increase in the use of marijuana and cocaine. Throughout the state, sixty thousand students were polled anonymously and voluntarily. "I feel it is high calibre information and is reliable," said Bahr. He noted that, if anything, the numbers are conservative and could actually be slightly higher. Those numbers include the following: Across the United States in 1983, 70.4 percent of high school seniors report having used alcohol within a month of the survey. In Utah, 37.3 percent of the seniors report having used alcohol within the past month; and in Nebo District, seniors report 34 percent use of alcohol within one month of the survey. Cigarette use among seniors within one month of the survey was reported this way: In the United States 29.4 percent had smoked, in Utah 13.4 percent had smoked, and in Nebo District 10.9 percent had smoked cigarettes. Marijuana smoking is slightly more frequent across the board, continuing to look at use within a month of the survey. In the U.S. 29.7 percent had smoked marijuana; it was 18.6 percent in Utah, and 16.4 percent in Nebo District. The survey also shows some use of such drugs as amphetamines, barbituates, tranquilizers, cocaine, heroin, inhalents, LSD, PCP, and pain medications. The small percentages per-centages of seniors who report using these drugs is similar to the small percentage reporting so across the nation and in Utah. Dr. Bahr said there were some social correlations apparent in the survey. For instance, students who report having used marijuana within a month of the survey are also students who report having difficulty communicating with Servicemen's news notes Army Sgt. 1st Class Paul L. Wright, son of Chester E. and Mary D. Wright of Mapleton, has arrived for duty at Fort George G. Meade, Md. Wright, an earth-moving equipment equip-ment platoon sergeant with the 76th Engineer Battalion, was previously assigned in Fulda, West Germany. He is a 1963 graduate of Springville High School. Airman Richelle M. Burger, daughter of LeRoy J. and Janice L. Burger of Springville, has graduated from Air Force basic training at Lackland Air Force Base, Texas. During the six weeks of training the airman studied the Air Force mission, organization and customs and received special training in human relations. In addition, airmen who complete basic training earn credits toward an associate degree through the Community College of the Air Force. She is a 1984 graduate of Springville High School. Proof that America had an early love for chocolate lies in the fact that the country's fist chocolate mill was erected in Massachusetts in 1765. The word astronaut comes from the Greek word for "star" "astron" and the Greek word for "sailor" "nautes." Thus, astronaut literally means "one who sails among the stars." euro parents. Thirty-one percent of those who said they had tried marijuana said they couldn't communicate with their mothers. Fifty percent of those who said they used marijuana also said their parents did not usually know where they were at night. Thirteen percent of those who used marijuana said their parents did keep track of them. Pupil services Coordinator Bill Rust said he was surprised by the number of students who reported they had been in a car driven by someone they thought to be drunk. Fifty-four percent of the students had reported so. Dr. Bahr also said his surveys indicate a progression in the use of alcohol, tobacco, and drugs, that the use of certain ones leads to use of others. He said a study of that progress in could be useful in helping curtail some abuses. Superindendant J. Wayne Nelson said the information would be shared with principals and that the District would continue working with other agencies, such as the Timp Mental Health Clinic, to become more aware of related problems.

Primary THE NEW YEAR The New Year lies ahead of us, like a field covered with untouched snow. We will make our own trails across the unmarked expanse, find our own ways into the future. We can wait until others make trails for us, but then those trails might not lead where we want to go. We have the freedom to chart our own course, and the guidance from above to make sure that course is a good one, if we will but heed the whisperings.
