Alcohol warning labels to appear soon
By Melanie Matthes
Kansan staff writer
Labels on alcohol containers will warn consumers of the dangers of drinking under a new federal law that will take effect in November.
The law was passed by Congress in February and by November will require that warning labels from the Surgeon General be placed on all vehicle cargo containers, said Tom Hill, spokesman for the Department of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
The label will be similar to the warning labels that appear on cigarette packages and packages of food containing saccharin and will warn users of the effects of alcohol, he
said.
The temporary warning states, "("1) According to the Surgeon General, women should not drink alcoholic beverages during pregnancy because of the risk of birth defects. (2) Consumption of alcoholic beverages impairs your ability to drive a car or operate a vehicle with problems." This warning must be no smaller than two millimeters.
A temporary warning is being used by some alcohol producers until the official warning is formalized Nov. 18, Hill said.
Hill said that the words of the temporary warning probably would not be changed in November but that
the size requirements could be changed in response to concerned consumer groups.
The warning labels will be required on all beverages containing more than .5 percent alcohol by volume, including most alcoholic beverages except one or two brands of wine coolers, he said.
He said many consumer groups were concerned that the warning was too small and that the print was not legible.
"The size that has been temporarily approved is the same for the saccharin warnings," Hill said.
ing labels on some brands of beer and on Jack Daniels whiskey. The warnings are on the bottom of the back label, and the print is the same size as the rest of the print on the bottle.
Dan Blomgren, owner of Blomgren-Johnson Retail Liquors, 1410 Kasdol Drive, said he had seen warn-
He said the labels reminded him of the warnings on cigarette packages and did not stand out considerably.
Chuck Mager, owner of The Free State Brewing Co., 636 Massachusetts St., said he was not certain what effect the law would have on his brewery because the beer he sold was not packaged.
"I am not certain that we'll be affected by the law other than the effect on people's thoughts regarding the health benefits of drinking," he said.
Hispanic students to take part in symposium
By Jennifer Metz Kansan staff writer
Seven students from the KU Hispanic American Leadership Organization will participate today in the fourth annual Kansas Hispanic Youth Symposium at Wichita State University.
The symposium encourages high
school students in Kansas to continue with higher education, said Shelly Fraga. HALO treasurer.
"I'm a firm supporter of the symposium," she said. "It brought me to KU, and made me decide where to go."
Organizing members expect nearly 600 high school students from all grades to attend the symposium,
students for the challenges of college. Role model sessions and college preparation workshops will be part of the symposium.
Fraga said. Most participants are Hispanic, although Black students and Asian students have participated in the past.
The theme for this year's symposium is "Sl, Se Pueado," or "Yes, You Cans."
Members from HALO hope to inspire high school students with interest in higher education and promote KU at the same time, Cervantes said.
Angela Cervantes, symposium HALO participant, said the symposium would help prepare high school
