Si Eugen Witwer — Harold Kerr ‘Chris Yates _ Boys and girls socce Dear Sir: 846-5092 846-5412 846-5138 (New smaller zone boundaries: This letter i is in response to the article printed i in the Janu- ° ary 25th issue of The Terrace Standard entitled “Drug use _ ‘.. rising among young and that has police worried”. In the article. you describe the harsh. effects. of crystal meth on its users. While I agree that crystal meth is an ex- | tremely dangerous drug. I disagree, with the photograph that - ‘ was above the article. _' Not,once in the article was there any reference to mari-..- juariz anywhere i in the article at-all. i think this is very’ mis- _ leading. " While most people know w hat pot looks like. some might think that crystal meth is made from marijuana. This is obvi- “ously completely untrue, And besides. why group two com- ~ pletely different drugs ‘together? . - It’s hard to even compare \ weed to meth. It's like trying to compare apples and open: heart surgery.
