Former student heeds call for help from Africa
By BRENDA DURR Staff Reporter
Far from the well-fed Americans and the fertile Kansas farm lands, Frank Janzen will travel to the arid land of Somalia, east Africa where there are 3.5 million people, most of them starvig.
"They're about six months late with this and the U.N. is probably screwing this up. The Peace Corp is slow but not that slow," said Janzem, 38, who applied for the United Nations-Peace Corp job of taking care of the land in sending it to family and war in eastern Africa.
"I APPLIED FOR this particular thing in November expecting it to come through in January," sid Janzen, who will be leaving in early August. "It's been several months and that's part of the reason why I haven't looked for a way to go back overseas because I only ate Africa."
Bureaucratic problems are nothing new to Janen, who worked for the Peace Corp from 1978 to 1978 in Senegal, west Africa, and then worked for a U.S. agency in foreign aid.
"Frank and world traveler" or "weird Frank," as his friends have nicknamed him, has traveled by Volkswagen bus through Europe into Asia and has worked on a freighter out of Africa.
Janzen recently worked as a Headquarters volunteer in Lawrence listening to telephone calls.
"Not many Americans would work as a Peace Co-
operation, even if they gave $2,000 a month." J. March
"It's uncomfortable for Americans to live that lifestyle."
JANZEN'S OWN LIFESTYLE is Spartan.
Most of his furnishings came with the small cement-block apartment he lives in, the most space he's had in years.
Janzen shuna cars and has never bought a
television. His only valuable possessions are his
Bible.
His radio was stolen before he left for Senegal.
Janzen said he would have bought a new radio but decided since he was going into the African bush country he would have to learn to live without such advanced technology.
however, upon reaching Senegal, Jansen was greeted by music coming from thatched huts because almost all the natives had transitor radios.
Jansen sees himself as a buffer between the West and the Third World.
"THERE IS A lot of unfearing aid," he said;
"high-price technology to build water and irrigation systems and housing projects. Many are well-informed by technical help and I try to be a buffer."
But after his volunteer experiences in other countries, Janzen says the United Nations is set up like an international charity organization with short-term solutions to long-time problems.
"This program is a form of international welfare," he said. "If nobody gave aid, the country would be forced to solve its own problem. And if they wouldn't have food or clothing, the people would be more militant and would be forced to solve problems."
The idealism some people feel when entering the Peace Corp is best forgotten in lands that hold differing cultures and outlooks of life, he said.
"Peace Corp volunteers who are idealistic
drop out or lose their idealism," he said. The only way to adjust to a situation is to become hard and disillusioned—I guess hardened by certain social customs."
JANEZ GREW UP learning about different customs in exotic places. His father, a civil engineer, traveled from Brazil to Saigon, living the longest, five years, in Chanale, Guinea.
"I enjoy traveling. I kind of think of it as an adventure." Janzen said.
He said he spent six of the last 12 years out of the country.
After getting some dismal grades, however, he enlisted in the Army.
Janzen, now sporting a grey streaked beard, trimmed-to-the-neck head length, and black-do in life," said Janzen, whose first thoughts of the Army were to quickly attacking the missile crisis.
"After a year in school I wasn't doing well so I joined for three years to know what I wanted to do in life," said Janen, whose first thoughts of Cuba because of the missile crisis.
Instead, Janzen went to California to the Army foreign language school and was later stationed in Germany for two years. He then returned to New York to work and took his only office job as a social worker.
"I graduated in '88 and went to work as a welfare caseworker back in the days when they

privately owned and had been regularly inspected.
"I dancing to music, for example, you supply lots of energy and the vibration is going to get large, and you have more energy than the ground," he says. "You have things happening like bridge collapses."

would take anybody with a college degree," he said.
ALTHOUGH RESULTS OF THE investigation may be unreliable, experts have to decide about the causes.
"It was long hair, beard, necklace and baskish, oumid and LSD." Janzen said.
One of Janzen's friends on the trip lived on a diet of bread and bananas for 50 cents a day. Small, cubical hotel rooms also rented for 50 cents.

But for the past two years, Janzen has been living in lawrence, the place he said he felt most
"I was more wrapped up at having a good time at KU than the protest movement," he said.
"One thing that happened was I have got
closer to people here in Lawrence than ever

"IT'S ALMOST AS if I have a pattern, a pattern that I don't want to enslave me. A pattern of no longer than two years in the states and staying out of the states one more year. I've been thinking the next time I go it'll be for three or four years."

However, if Janzen should ever decide to stay in one place, he may take up writing.
"I may end up tired of travelling and write my memoirs," he said. "It's not finding the time. I was planning to write a year ago, but last fall I went to college. The class and I were elected to the Student Senate."
But as one friend remarked to Janzen about his traveling; "Frank, you're still living out your novel—having adventures instead of writing them."
Budd said he felt tired just thinking of the hectic schedule of the 12 to 14 hour days during the past two weeks. But he said he was going to visit all 16 countries in the year.
"This was a learning experience for me," he said. "I returned believing that I better understood the public expectations of KU. I also prepared to assume the position of chancellor."

I looked to my left and saw Ron standing by me, his hands outstretched, were accounted for, and we all appeared unhurt.

Jackie and Ron returned. There was nothing they could do to help, so we prepared to leave.
