KU Students Say Vista, Peace Corps Worthwhile
By CATHY BROWN
Students at the University of Kansas seem to feel that the peace corps and Peace Corps are worthwhile, but it is unclear as to what they are unacceptable as to.
The results of a random interview of KU students indicated that those who were not discussed among students, there was still a great amount of confusion.
Cited as reasons to participate in volunteer programs after graduation were the current need for more and increased awareness of the needs of people in the United States, and growing distinterest in school.
A number of those interviewed said they felt that the Peace Corps and what they were effective at doing were their greatest deal of personal satisfaction.
A few students agree with Ann Dunfield, fourth year pharmacy major from Kansas City, Kan., who said she felt people were more informal about Vista and San Antonio than the Peace Corps. Others said they would prefer working in their own country rather than abroad.
Several others said they had friends or relatives who had participated in these programs and were satisfied with their experiences.
Some complaints were the amount of "red tape" involved once they were in the program and the uncooperative attitude of some of the people in the country in which the volunteers worked.
"I just wish it wasn't so difficult to get a draft exemption," Jay Pherigo, Los Angeles sophomore, said.
Clark Coan, dean of foreign students, handles distribution of literature and questions from students about such programs.
Several students, however,
said that although they had
considered joining one of the
state colleges, a state college
concern was a financial one.
Among students at KU, Coan said, interest in the Peace Corps seems to have increased.
"As a sociology major I'm really interested in these programs," Gail Vassals, Shawnee, Miss Saunders would be difficult to decide what to do when you started getting job offers."

Smith had noticed a greater maturity among students after receiving his first large number of war veterans, an but analogy to the Vietnam War could not be made, he said. "We don't identify veterans in his classes."
The church realistically wants to avoid repetition of its hostile
"The classes seem much the same as they've always seemed," Richard S. Howey, professor of economics, said.

Senator James Pearson said today that he joined with more than 30 senators as co-sponsor of National Sickle-Cell Anemia Act.
This socialist movement presents a problem because the church's indirect association with the previous Christian democratic government, which is based in France, but there are four ways the church has adapted to the political change Sanders said.
Blood Disease Bill Sponsored By Pearson
"The deadly effects of the disease are known to most of us," he said. "One in ten black Americans carries the sickle-cell trait. This legislation would provide long needed funding for research into this tragic disease." Pearson wrote in a statement released today.
A group of black students at Wichita State University have contacted more than 3,000 black citizens provided with them and screening and counseling services. The results of that project led to a greater number of those contacted were discovered to the sickle-cell trait.
B Pearson, R-Kan, said that the pearson would provide the $22 million for faculty screening and counseling programs that would be operated by local groups familiar with the program. This would enable the individual seeking information to help put away fear and ignorance associated with the study.
Projects of this kind indicate that there are now organizations limited only by funds, which are ready to volunteer for the fight against child neglect, said. "I personally believe that we in the Senate would be remiss not to provide the funds necessary to bring these primary efforts to a successful conclusion," an Senator Pearson.

HOWEY NOTICED a different situation after school after WWI. They were in a different kind of situation from the men returning to work.

Some veterans lose some of their self-motivation and others have more drive after being told to do more. She said she attributed the lack of motivation on the part of some returning veterans to "a human condition that was better after more academic work." Veterans seemed to be more mature and knew better what wanted out of school, she said.
MRS. GREEN pointed out that he students to military service. She had taught no one who was in school to avoid the draft, she

"Students are more concerned now about the world in which they live. The Vietnam War has made attitudes much more attentive, it" he said.
The evidence for concern is greater now than it was at the height of the war, Wilson said. The Vietnam War, he said, had been one of America's all of America's problems. Wilson also noted that the 18-

The leadership of the church also has in recent years come to understand the contradiction between its hopes society and many of the poor.
The bishops now accept support for socialism as one among their main objectives. Sanders said, and some priests and laymen are in tandem with them they believe support for Allende and socialism be the only
Birth control by effective means (birth control pills, intrauterine devices, and other contraceptive methods) or Catholic church. But in Latin America the Catholic church is no obstacle to artificial means of birth control.
Most Latin Americans are not "good" Catholics, because they are either ignorant of or do not understand the important leaders within the churchure the need for family planning, or "responsible parenthood," despite their effort against effective methods.
In the five nations that Sanders examined, including Columbia, Peru, Bolivia, and Chile, were International. Planned Parenthood Federation chapters. The organization also gives birth control information along with maternal health care.

There is not a serious awareness among blacks of Brazil as to a major race problem, and they are stereotyped to stereotype blacks among whites in Brazil and Colombia, which have the two largest black populations in Latin America," Sanders said.

"The United States must understand the diversity of nations in Latin America in 1971, and realize that there is no single solution to their problems." - Billy Collins. The United States should provide and encourage economic aid regardless of political ideologies.
Sanders said.
"The basic forces underlying Latin America today are nationalism and development. These factors explain the difficulty understanding these."
The national hero of Brazil, Pole, a soccer player, is black but this does not alter the basic sadness of the blacks, Sanders said.
In 1947, he returned to the United States and entered Harvard University as a fellow of the Institute of Current World History and studied the history of the Far East and the Chinese language.

Journalist from Asia Reports That China Could Feed Itself
Ravenholt speaks Danish, Swedish and Chinese fluently.
"YOU CAN'T DEAL with world problems in adequate detail through the limited space of a magazine or magazine," Ravenholt said.
Ravenholt says the main accomplishment of AFCFS is that "it gives the students a service to serve to keep faculty and students informed on the latest developments."

The car was driven by Cynthia Appley, Akron, Iowa, junior. A damage report was not immediately available.
Ravenholt's most recent written report for the AUFS deals with the ability of one billion Chinese to feed themselves.
Ravenholt became friends and often had tea with He before he became the teacher. He fluent in many languages, Ravenholt told them so they would be able to see other people.
According to Ravenhott, the corre­
correspondent is getting to know
people before they get into power.
Such was Ravenhott's case with
the police.
Ravenholt, said that, theoretically, it was possible for the Chinese to feed themselves, "providing the diet remains as it traditionally has been, one wherein animal protein is at a stake." We know of only a small portion of all food comes directly from the vegetable kingdom."
