ARTICLE'S AUTHOR NOT GIVEN CREDIT

I READ with interest your Jan. 4 article, "Alcoholism in women," provided by the Women's Advocacy Coalition. While very informative, it did not give credit to the author, Gail Burress.

Ms. Burress is the director of Bethany Hall, a residence for women recovering from drug and alcohol dependency. She is a shining example of staff members who have given support and help to more than 600 women during Bethany Hall's 20-year existence.

As a member of Bethany Hall's board of directors, I know how qualified Ms. Burress is and would hope you can give credit where credit is due. Thank you.
