Getting help looking to help last in three editor’s note
Clark Kent, known as a showoff, battles drug and alcohol addiction. He used alcohol and cocaine after returning from service, maintained work to fund the drugs, and after a coke and booze binge felt a near heart attack in 1984 around the Cubs playoff period. He then scheduled admission to Hazelden to begin recovery.

After weeks of binge use Kent entered a Hazelden 28 day program funded largely by Hardware Wholesalers Inc. in Dixon with a $500 personal loan. He says the experience showed him that everyone there is the same and five years later he has not used drugs or alcohol.
