READER’S DIGEST recenily
issued a challenge to high schools
across Canada .— to develop the
best student-run program against
teenage drinking and driving.

Through a grant from the
Reader’s Digest Foundation of
Canada, a total of $100,000 in
university scholarships will be
awarded — $5,000 to each of 20
winning schools whose students
develop the best programs to stop
their peers from drinking and driv-
ing or from getting into a car with
a drinking driver.

The high school challenge has
rallied support from numerous
educational, civic, safety and
community organizations. The
Canadian Association of Prin-
cipals has agreed to administer the
program. Other groups, including
the Canadian Association of
Chiefs of Police and the Addiction
Research Foundation, will par-
ticipate on the judging panel.

“The idea is simple,'’ says
Ralph Hancox, president of the
Reader’s Digest Foundation of
Canada. ‘‘We think that harness-
ing the brains and creativity of
teenagers themselves is the best
way to get on top of the problem.

“And it’s a serious one. Accor-
ding to figures from the Traffic
Injury Research Foundation,
motor vehicle accidents are the
leading cause of death among
people under 25,’’ Hancox ex-
plains.

Participating schools are free to
enter any program that students
feel will work to stop drinking and
driving. Programs must have been
conducted and reported to
Reader’s Digest by March 2, 1987.
