Prof.Ketzel Provides Insight Into Pakistani Way Of Life
The American married man who has a habit of stepping out on his wife for a weekend would find Pakistan to his liking. In that country it is legal for a man to have not only a wife in town during the week but also a maiden for the weekend who would live in the country and never see the other woman.
This neea was illustrated by Clifford Ketzel, associate professor of political science, yesterday at the Faculty Club.
PROF. KETZEL presented himself in native Pakistani habit and had his two "wives" with him for his talk which was accompanied by slides.
One of the wives wore a black burqa, a habit that completely veils the woman. Prof. Ketzel said she would be his town wife, more sophisticated than the other. The woman in the white burqa would be his village wife.
Prof. Ketzel was a Fulbright professor in Pakistan last year.
PROF. KETZEL taught at the University of Peshawar, which is near the Khyber Pass. Mrs. Ketzel and their three sons went with him.
Peshawar has about 150,000 people. Prof. Ketzel said, "although you'd never believe it driving through it." Most of the cities in the area are divided into the old city and the new city, he said.
The predominant religion is Islam, but there are some Christians, Prof. Ketzel said.
He also showed pictures of a number of mosques. As he showed one of them, he remarked:
"YOU FIND most of the Christians at the lower economic level, however," he said.
"While we were there, the trick-shaw or quickshaw replaced the tonga," he said. The trickshaw is a small passenger bus, holding three or four people.
"If you want to go to a place and be popular, take a microbus (a small bus), Prof. Ketzel said. "My wife and I were invited to tribal dinners, special services and such because we had transportation."
"I found that most Moslems were not any better Moslems than most Christians are Christians. This mosque was not very full that Friday."
PROF, KETZEL said the principal mode of transportation in Pakistan was the tonga, a two-wheeled carriage run by manpower.
THE SANITARY conditions were less than ideal, Prof. Ketzel said, as there was no sewage disposal of any kind. "It is not a desirable life from a westerner's point of view." he said.
"We measured our baths by the number of buckets," Prof. Ketzel said. "If one person took a bath, he
could have a six-bucket bath. But if two took a bath, each could have only three buckets." he said.
Prof. Ketzel said he found English was spoken all over Pakistan, as well as native languages.
"MOST MOSLEMS, if they can afford it, send their children to a primary and secondary school where the main language is English, because you can't get very far over there without English," he said.
Prof. Ketzel found the Pakistani tobacco shops especially agreeable, he said.
"One of the nice things about Pakistan is that there is a cigarette for every pocket book," he said.

Explanation of Voting Procedure
In the sample general election ballot at left, the voter has selected John D. Doe as his first choice for the ASC. Dorothy Darling is his second choice, and Johnathon Anybody is third.
This ballot will be counted in the following manner: Doe will be given one vote. If it is necessary to re-distribute the ballots in this district, in order for the various candidates to receive quota, this ballot may be re-counted, this time counting the second choice as a first place vote. This would happen only if Doe had been declared elected or defeated. The ballot might be re-distributed through all the choices on the ballot, if necessary, to obtain quota for one of the candidates still in contention after the first few counts.
It is extremely important, therefore, to mark as many choices as there are names on the ballot, since an election may be decided by one fifth-place vote.
Excerpts from ASC Elections Rules:
1. It is illegal for a student to vote more than once in the general elections.
