Members of organization
provide each other strength

Members of Aleoholics
Anonymous have but one pri-
mary purpose — “to stay sober
and help other alcoholics
achieve sobriety.”

From its beginning in 1935,
AA. has grown from two
members to more than 1,000,000
in about 28,000 local groups, in
about 92 countries.

In the early years, A.A.
members were most often in
their 50s, Today, with the
fellowship more widely known
and the problem of alcoholism
more clearly understood, the
average age has been lowered
considerably. Many A.A.'s are
in their 20s, some in their teens.

The basic unit of A.A.
organization is the group, which ®
holds meetings at regular inter-.
vals during the week and estab-
lishes contact with alcoholics
who seck help. Some A.A.
mectings are open to the public.
Here, one or two recovered
alcoholics usually tell their ex-
perience and give their inter-
pretation of the A.A. program.
The mecting may be followed
by a social hour with refresh-
ments.

Closed meetings ace open
only to people who have a
“desire to stop drinking.” Small-
er in size, they are likely to
feature a round-table discussion
of particular aspects of the
recovery program. They are
designed to help members whe
have questions or problems.

A.A. does not accept out.
side ibuti of

As a movement, A.A. is
perhaps notable for several
features of ils structure and
relationship with the world in
general:

1, It is a movement with-
out personal leadership at the
local, national or international
level. A.A. has no president or
other titular head. While every
member is free to interpret the
recovery program according to
his own likes, no individual can
speak for A.A, as a whole.

2. The movement. is com-
pletely self-supporting, declin-
ing lo accept outside contri-
butions in any form. Strict
adherence to this policy has led
the trustees to reject thousands
of dollars in gifts and bequests

— from members, as well as
non-members.

The society has tradition-
ally avoided the accumulation
of property in any form, beyond
prudent financial reserves to
assure continuation of its world
services.

3. Traditionally, alt mem-
bers seek lo preserve personal
anonymity at the public level,
for other A.A.’s. Even when a
member us s specialized
experience as an alcoholic (in
the alcoholism field, for ex-
ample}, he avoids identification
with A:A.

4. A.A. has no connection
with any other movement and
takes no position on issues
advanced by others, It - has
never expressed either appro-
val or disapproval of the so-
called temperance movement;
for example, A.A. co-operates
with many of the public and
private agencies concerned
with the problem of

“The waste dumps are

were born of these mines,”
the inscription adds.

The big mines staked on

Jim. Fishwick is a crea-
tive weatherman,

For instance, . he's coy
enough to call himself a
weather techniclan. This re-
moves the probability of him
being blamed for rain when
he's screamed sunshine. '

Fishwiek, a federal ex- >

;vironment ministry employ-
ee on contract each summer
‘to the Forest Service, can
even predict the effect of
weather on regional fires.
Fire suppression crews

sapped from battling an-*

unusually high number of
fires this year, won't like it
but he isn’t promising im-
mediate: rain relief.

The .dry. spell and the
likelihood of it adding to the
countless number of blazes
reported to date, explains
Fishwick, is due to a massive
ridge of high pressure that’s

refused to budge. And the

system promotes lightning
activity accused of inciting 83
fires last weekend.

This fact is part of the
weather forecast puzzle Fish-
wick pieces together daily to
post a forest fire danger
rating from low to extreme.

The rating process be-
gins each ‘morning when he
checks into the Castlegar
weather station. He leaves
bundling a heap of ‘weather

- maps and copious details of
the atmospheric temperatur-
es and humidity.

At Nelson, Fishwick
uses the data to determine
the characteristics of wind

A complete list of wes-
ther indices have replaced
the crystal ball as a yardstick
to forecast the relative dry-
ness of forest fuels."

“An index like.one used
to ‘measure the moisture
content of surface and under-
lying forest fuels can help me
predict what a fire would do
when lit, how it will spread
and it's intensity,” says Fish-

long enough for him to say, . wick.

“The forecast is reasonably
accurate, especially the 48-

been doing this, this is the

This information can be
used by the ranger to know

It would take an awful

-lot of rain before rangers
could even temporarily moth-

While Fishwick’s fore-
cast is as accurate as it could
be he has been.wrong often
enough for him to say,
“Whenever I make a forecast
