Personality liO
Linkletter
Hollywood television
personality and anti-drug
crusader Art Linkletter said in
Lincoln Thursday night that
"people abuse" is the main
factor behind the drug abuse
problem in the U.S. today.
Linkletter, whose
20-year-old daughter
committed suicide 18 months
ago during an apparent LSD
flashback, said "families are
giving a lower and lower
priority to their children
today. You can't buck the fact
that in every house there is a
TV in the front room, and
while it's on members of the
family don't talk to each
other."
Headlining the Lincoln
YMCA's 200th anniversary
dinner at Pershing Auditorium,
the 58-year-old entertainer
said, "kids are getting things
today. They aren't getting
people.
"They're getting things like
freedom, that they don't want
and are too young to know
what to do with. They're given

wonder kids try drugs'
so much so soon that they're
used to instant gratification."
Linkletter said some young
people have looked to drugs to
get over the rough spots that
occur when "instant
gratification" isn't available.
"It's no shock that kids try
drugs," he said. "On TV, radio
and in the press they've been
told that no matter what the
problem, relief is just a swallow
away.
Children have grown up
overwhelmed by the amounts
of drugs available, he
continued. "They've seen their
parents' medicine cabinets
filled with pills."
Linkletter said that after
such a background, children in
the "chance-taking" teenage
years are taking chances not
only with the traditional
cigarets and alcohol but also
with "Russian Roulette" in the
form of drugs.
Linkletter singled out the
recording industry's "acid

rock" artists for special blame
as a group urging young people
to get into drugs.
He said the Beatles bragged
about smoking marijuana just
before being honored by the
queen. "Popular idols in the
recording field have lived a
drug culture life," he
explained. "It's a good way to
thumb your nose at the
establishment. Like
missionaries the singers get on
stage and yell, 'are you high?' "
Linkletter said Timothy
Leary's LSD gospel spread
from his disciples in
universities down to high
school students.
"It only takes an amount of
LSD the size of a grain of salt
for a trip," he said. "And
sooner or later one trip will be
a bummer."
Linkletter started his drive
against drug abuse after his
daughter jumped to her death
from her apartment window.
"She had her whole life
before her," he said. "She was
a happy child, loving and
loved."
She committed suicide
during a flashback from LSD
she had taken at a party a
month earlier, he said. "She
was not a drug addict. Peer
pressure is a terrible, terrible
pressure."
Linkletter said he did not
cover up the reason behind his
daughter's death because "only
by sharing knowledge about
drugs can families, parents, and
communities fight the
problem.
He said in the last 18
months he has become an
expert on drugs. "Perhaps if
one child is saved by my
coming here tonight it will be
yours, just as it might have
been mine."
