Foreign Students Get Aid In Short Course
Orientation to one world on one campus describes the goal of the University of Kansas Orientation Center July 26 to Sept. 5.
For the seventh year, 40 to 50 students from about 20 countries will have an opportunity to get their first introduction to life in the United States by living on the KU campus.
"The Orientation Center provides opportunities for new foreign students to increase their proficiency in written and spoken English, to become familiar with the customs and culture of the United States and to become acquainted with the classroom procedures of American colleges and universities," said J. A. Burzle, professor of German and director of the center.
KU's Orientation Center is one of the seven of this sort held in the United States during the summer, and is the only one in the Midwest. A budget of $13,300 has been set aside to cover expenses. The students will live in Gertrude Sellards Pearson Dormitory. Instruction will be in Bailey, and meals will be served in the Student Union.
Courses will be offered in written composition and reading, pronunciation of American English, American civilization and conversational speech and vocabulary development
Prof. Burzle said foreign students are selected by a bi-national committee made up of educators from their native country, and cultural officers of U.S. legations abroad.
Courses Offered
"Each student is selected on the bais of a written examination, after which he is interviewed." Prof. Burzle said. "The winners are then awarded U.S. government scholarships. All students who apply are either graduate students or professional people."
Experiences Outside Class Room
One of the most valuable,parts of the program is the emphasis which is put upon experiences gained outside the classroom. Prof. Burzle said. Numerous field trips, daily living and association with American students, special lectures and week- ly motion picture programs are a few of the opportunities that are offered to the students outside the classrooms.

Book Tells Youths About Occupations
"Books about Occupations," a reading list for high school students has been published by the School of Education.
The book, one of the Kansas Studies in Education which is published irregularly during the school year, was edited by Oscar M. Haugh, professor of education.
The reading list includes about 600 books on 92 occupational areas, and provides three types of materials—biographies, fiction which gives an accurate portrayal, and expository accounts. Work on the book began in 1953. The list was compiled by Mrs. Oakie Robison Gerakis and Mrs. Margaret Haggerty Anderson, former graduate students. nesday, May 1.

WARNING!
NEVER LEAVE ANTI-FREEZE IN YOUR RADIATOR DURING THE SUMMER!
One of the major causes of cooling system damage is failure to remove old anti-freeze from your radiator in the spring. Even the best "permanent" anti-freeze is designed for one full winter season only. After your anti-freeze solution has been used all winter its rust and corrosion inhibitor loses its efficiency—leaving nothing to keep your cooling system from corroding in hot-weather driving.
Automotive engineers say it can cost you a loss of $4\frac{1}{2}$ points in gasoline octane rating. This means you pay premium gas prices for regular gas results. By keeping anti-freeze in your radiator you waste 50 cents on every tank of gas.
To protect your cooling system this summer drain the anti-freeze from your car now and replace it with clean water fortified with Phillips 66 Anti-Rust Solution. Your car will be set for summer driving, and your cooling system will be in condition for fall anti-freeze.
