Description: 1946 article on parapsychology by J. B. RHINE This is a 7-page article which appeared in a 1950 issue of The Saturday Evening Post magazine. The article was spread over 5 sheets in the magazine, and this item consists of only the pages comprising the article, not the complete magazine. The pages measure 10.5 x 13.5 inches in size, and are in fine condition. They present a lengthy early piece on AA, appearing more than 60 years ago in one of the countrys most popular publications. The article was written by Jack Alexander, and is titled: THE DRUNKARDS BEST FRIEND. Below the articles title, the subhead describes its content as: Nine years ago the Post reported on the then-obscure group known as Alcoholics Anonymous. Since that time these self-rehabilitated menand womenhave sobered up an astonishing number of Americas heaviest drinkers. This is how they do it. The article includes three photographs, with these captions: Alcoholism is a mysterious and repellent malady, with perhaps as many as a million victims in this country. Women account for about fifteen per cent of Alcoholics Anonymous membership, which now exceeds 90,000 and is increasing at a rate of 20,000 a year. A decade ago there were fewer than 2,000 members. Duffys Tavern is part of the drying-out ward at Manhattans Knickerbocker Hospital, where alcoholics go through a five-day rebuilding course that includes medical care and a high-vitamin diet. _gsrx_vers_1680 (GS 9.8.3 (1680))
