Pot and Booze Down But Drug Danger Rises in Teens
A federal Household Survey shows fewer teens using marijuana and alcohol in 1996 while more adolescents try hard drugs like heroin. About 13 million Americans used drugs monthly in 1996, up slightly from 12.8 million in 1995, with heroin use rising sharply among 12 to 17 year olds and cocaine use edging up among ages 18 to 25.

Teen drug use drops while heroin message urged
The report notes teen drug use overall fell to nine per 100 in 1995 from 10.9, with alcohol and smokeless tobacco down and first-time drug use nearly doubling from 1991 to 1995. Shalala credits programs with reducing tobacco use while warning against heroin glamor. Officials say Household Survey is one tool among others for measuring national drug use.

In Phoenix, Assistant U.S. Attorney George Cardolia argued Gov. Fife Symington knew the errors and outdated data in his financial statements. He portrayed Symington as a highly educated real estate developer who closely monitored loans and could not claim ignorance. Jurors were to hear closing statements as the trial neared juror deliberation.
