Two priests whose crusade against drugs has brought death threats against them have called for the drug testing of all students, teachers and administrators in the Roman Catholic school system in Chicago. Father George Clements and Father Michael Pfleger issued the call to Cardinal Joseph Bernardin as he attended a news conference at which 142 priests from across the archdiocese pledged to help rid neighborhood stores of drug paraphernalia. Clements and Pfleger have actively campaigned since last April to halt the selling of drug accessories such as pipes used to smoke marijuana and crack cocaine.
