Foreign Students Shown Western Kansas Life Attending a square dance, watching the harvesting of milo, and eating at a community basket dinner were a few of the "firsts" for 16 foreign students who visited in Dodge City homes during Thanksgiving vacation. The purpose of the trip was to acquaint the students with American homes and to show them points of interest in Dodge City, the "Cowboy Capital of the World." The trip was arranged by the KU-Y and the Dodge City Council of Church Women. Here are some typical comments by the foreign students: Rabim Ola Oijikut, Nigeria graduate student—"I expected to see a lot of cowboys, but no one even carried a gun. But I was happy to meet the people who treated us as members of their families. I especially enjoyed the basket dinner they gave for us. All the people brought homemade food and we could eat all we wanted." ate student—"It was the first time I had had the opportunity to get to know an American family. Our hosts gave us such a warm welcome. They made me love western Kansas even though it is much flatter than Switzerland." Nadine Dony, Switzerland gradu- Collette Boyer, France graduate student—"I was particularly impressed by the modern kitchens in the farm homes." Everything on the farms was so modern. They even fed the cattle by a machine." Other students who went to Dodge City were Helmut Ausderau and Harold Meyer, Switzerland; Allan Lee, China; Manouchehr Pedram, Iran; Alan Brooks, Ivor Shelly, and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Cridland, England; Johannes Leitich, Austria; Therese Pageau, Canada; Erwin Werner, Germany; Oystein Opdahl, Norway, and Frode Jorgensen, Denmark.

Portable Radio Batteries For All Makes Expert Service and Repair A student, reading KU's basketball schedule, asked an instructor "Where is Canisius?" Next Question: Who Is Canisius? The instructor didn't know but looked it up and found that the college is in Buffalo, N. Y. He then took an informal poll of 22 basketball enthusiasts and learned that only four of them knew Canisius is in Buffalo. Other guesses ranged from Philadelphia and Boston to Ohio and Siberia. The instructor was gleeful—until someone asked him "Where is St. Joseph's?" He was last seen making out a shotgun test for his students. (Editor's note: The Daily Kansan knows it's in Philadelphia, Pa.) ** More playing cards are made in Cincinnati, Ohio, than in any other place in the world.
