ALCOHOL AND YOU (28 minutes, color, 1969). Produced by Max Miller for Avanti Films, Bailey-Film Associates, Los Angeles, California:
“This film establishes that young people are growing up in a drinking society in which it is easy for them to slip into the attitudes and drinking patterns of the one-in-fifteen drinkers who become alcoholic. Well known physicians provide concrete illustrations of the health hazards and emphasize that excessive drinking will produce the same physiological and social deterioration as alcoholism.”

Bet you want to hear a sample, ya? Steno-Disc No.506 is a good ‘un. On Track 4 a guy quits his job at the Globe Sales Co. and gets hired by a competitor. He doesn’t bother to give his name to his boss, Mr. Carl Fox, but I assume Carl figured it out when the guy didn’t show up for work on Monday.
There’s a three-car pile up on Track 10. Some guy who just quit his job went on a bender and ended up in court.
Some reasonably priced copies of several editions are available at Discogs.
The woman on the covers of the series? Carol Burnett.
