Reggie McKenzie, founder
of the found tion which bears
his name, w on h nd t the
Highland P rk Chamber of
Commerce monthly luncheon
meeting I st Thur day to peak
on th import nee of educa­
tion for the city's youth.
Mc enzie tied educating
youth in with maint ining suc­
cessful businesses in the city,
saying if a person cannot re d,
how are they going to under­
stand business.
He emphasized the city's
businesses need to get involved
in the education process, to
make youth understand the im­
portance of gaining one.
He said if youth are tied into
drugs and illegal, ctivities be­
cau e of a lack of educational
opportunie , this is an elimina­
tion of consumers.
McKenzie said the country
c nnot be successful with only
70- 0 percent contributing to
growth. He stated b sic
education i the key to m king
young adults contribute to
society.
He said society mu t edu­
cate youth and "plant the seed
of education" early, during
third, fourth, and fifth gr des.
Saying the effort to educa­
tion will not succeed over
night, he emphasized the im­
portance of not waiting on the
federal government to help
with the problem becau e of a
decrease in available money.
,'HE QUOTED A statistic
which reported that 20 percent
of theU .S. population does not
contribute to the Gross Na­
tional Product (GNP). With
the recession, he estimated 30
percent are not contributing.

a person is taking narcotic pain relievers. tranquilizers, antihi tammes,
antianxiety agents, or sedative-type sleep medicines, the following may
occur: headaches, rapid heart beat, confu io�. and imparied mental judge-
ment ,
According to a recent study reported in the Journal of the American
Medical Association. the use of alcohol and aspirin at the same time can
lead to unexpected increases in blood alcohol concentrations. Individu-
in the tudy were given identical breakfasts and alcohol in orange jui ceo
Some were given two 500 milligram aspirin tablets. Tho who too the
aspirin had blood alcohol concentration that were 26 percent higher than
those who did not take aspirin.
Researchers indicate lhatalthough th level of blood alcohol increase,
is not dramatic, the increase i enough to "alter person's respon time
and make the person 100 impaired to drive or operate m hinery."
Reseachers consider the findings important because food in til tom h
usually keeps blood alcohol level low . Apparently, wh_en aspirin is pres­
ent. blood level are enhanced.
