I CLAIM THIS LAND FOR THE
More Students Get into ACTION
By ANN GARDNER

The number of KU students entering the Peace Corps and VISTA has been rising over the last three years, according to Richard Garbell, area manager for the U.S. WARNATION, the agency that combined Peace Corps, VISTA and other service programs.
ACTION representatives will be on campus Feb. 11-15 to talk with seniors and graduate students at the University of Kansas and their representatives will be in the Kansas Union and in the placement offices of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences of Business, Engineering and Education.
Garbell said the number of KU applicants hit a low point in 1970 and had been increasing steadily since then. Applicants have been available positions but in the past, he said.
** ACTION WILL have inquiries from about 650 KU students this year, Garbell said. About 400 will be concerned with the Peace Corps and about 250 with VISTA. The inquiries will result in about 120 applications for the Peace Corps and 75 for VISTA.**
About 65 per cent of KU applicants are accented by ACTION, Garbell said, and
about 25 or 30 per cent of those eventually will serve in ACTION. Many students don't enter the program, he said, because they file an ACTION application along with applications for other employment and schools before making a final decision.
Although Garbell expects a good turnout at KU, next week, interest in the placement of its new job will be high.
Mildred Young, placement officer for the Business, said, "They're lucky if you can go in and see it."
YOUNG SAID that small numbers of people interested in ACTION had been a result.
"There have been very few at the business school," she said. "Competition is pretty great in the business school with other firms."
Although the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has no accurate record of the number of students interviewing, placement officer, Gladys Padgett said, there will be very few who will sign up for interviews.
"here in the college, they won't have more than a handful, four or five," she said. Herold Regier, placement officer for the School of Education, also said that records of student interviews were incomplete. Although only two students had signed up
Regier estimated that five or six students from the School of Education joined ACTION each year.
for interviews, Regier said, the ACTION representatives will probably talk to students who don't have appointments.

The troupe is now considered by many critics to be one of the best classic ballet companies outside New York because of its unity of action and its virtuosic performers.
Hillcrest
The troupe's repertoire includes such classical ballets as "Cinderella," "Nutrracker," "Swan Lake" and "Sleeping Beauty," which premiered in October 1671, in obserance of the inaugural session of the Academy, Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
The jovial young lady checking up on her balance reads like a scene from any soap opera.
However, add a touch of magic and a wicked toymaker named Dr. Copellius, who evily plans to transfer the soul of the fiance to a doll, and the scene becomes the most enchanting and captivating performance formed at 8 tonight in Boch Auditorium by the National Ballet of Washington.
