Strong U.S. Influence In Sweden Says '51 Grad There On Fulbright
"There is a strong American influence in Sweden," Clinton Foulk, '51, Fulbright scholarship student to Sweden, said in a recent letter to Wilbur Goodseal, College junior.
"I bought a new radio here," he said, "and the second day I had it. I turned it on to the Swedish government program, and there were Red Ingle and Jo Stafford singing "Tim-tay-shun."
He said the two things "being sold in a big way" on the radio there were Soviet communism and American capitalism.
"A good half of the movies that have played at the Lund theaters since I came here, have been American movies." Mr. Foulk stated.
"The language is a real problem," he continued. "All the lectures in Swedish I understood about five per cent of the first lecture I attended, but I think I can understand about 50 per cent of what is said now."

He added that this is no problem socially, since all the students at the university understand English, and want to practice it instead of letting him practice Swedish.
He said that the classrooms are conducted differently from the way
Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy and five faculty members of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Public Information will appear on the program at the 25th annual convention of the National Scholastic Press association.
Six From KU Attend NSPA
they are here at the University "They have the most peculiar institution here," he said, "called the academic quarter, which means that if a meeting or lecture is scheduled for 4 o'clock, it doesn't begin until 15 or 20 minutes later.
Chancellor Murphy is scheduled to address the group. Members of the journalism faculty who will conduct sectional meetings and the subjects to be discussed are: Dean Burton W. Marvin, "The Editor and His Job"; Emil L. Telfel, "Editing Your Copy"; Miss Frances Grinstead "Let's Vary Our Features"; Victor J. Daniell, "Finding a New Angle in Sports"; Elmer F. Beth, "Effective Editorial Writing."
More than 1,200 high school journalism students from all over the United States are expected to attend the meetings which will take place Friday, Nov. 23 and Saturday, Nov. 24, in Topeka.
"The students gather in the room about 10 after 4 and wait for the professor. When he comes in the door, everyone stands up, and when he nods, everyone sits down again."
"As for interrupting him in the middle of a lecture," Mr Foulk said, "it would be blasphemy. I believe I'd almost as soon interrupt a preacher in church and start arguing theology with him."
He said that there isn't nearly as much paper work and record keeping in Sweden. "There's no dean to call you in if you cut class too often," he said.
He added that the rector's office was only open two and a half hours a day and that, as far as he knew, there was no registrar.
Mr. Foulk was a major in astronomy and a member of Phi Beta Kappa, national honor society. He is taking advanced study in astronomy in Sweden.
Browns Near Sixth Title
Owen long has been rated the defensive genius of the National Football league, but the Browns shut out his young Giant team, 10-0, Sunday in what could prove to be the most decisive game of the season. The victory boosted Cleveland's lead over the runner-up Giants to a fat game-and-a-half in the American conference.
New York—(U.R.)The Cleveland Brownis may be ready to roll to their sixth straight championship because Coach Paul Brown beat Coach Steve Owen of the New York Giants at his own specialty—defensive football.

Boy Looks After 10 Children After Parents Die In Wreck
By Jerry Moore
Written for the United Press
Leonard, Mich.-What happened to me and my brothers and sisters,
I don't want to happen to any other kids.
I am the oldest in my family and now I have 10 brothers and sisters to take care of because my mother and father are dead.
Mom and Dad went out happy the night before the accident. I talked to them before they left about the car, about the kids, and things in general. They left and I never saw them alive again.
They were killed when their car crashed with another car full of teen-age kids.
I don't want a tragedy like that to happen to any other kids. Everyone should drive carefully. There should be no speeding or drinking.
I have a big responsibility now. I think all kids my age should have a responsibility, too. Especially when they are driving a car.
This was the first time our family was together. We had been living with relatives and some of us in a public home until about six weeks ago when we moved to our first real home together here.
I am going to do everything I can to help keep us together. 'I will even take my brothers and sisters into my house when I get married.'
Jeffrey, my three-year-old brother, asked me the other night if Mom and Dad were all broken up and if they were coming home again. I said I didn't know and changed the subject.
The little kids knew something was wrong the morning after the accident, but they didn't know for sure and I had to tell them.
Mom and Dad were always close
to us. Dad always played Canasta with me and some of the others at night. I always helped out financially whenever I could.
