Agencies to seek volunteers during service fair

Organizations ranging from the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence to the Salvation Army Homeless Shelter will be looking for volunteers today at the first Community Service Fair.

"We felt like there was a need to get all these organizations together on campus to show students all the opportunities they have to volunteer." Leona Dalaval, Topeka senior, said.
Dalaval is co-chair of the community service committee for the All- Scholarship Hall Council and helped organize the fair.
"People will be there to talk about their organizations and to try and get students to volunteer with them," she said.
Native Belgian cherishes U.S. freedom
By Mark Martin
Kansan staff writer
Freedom is a very important word to Francine Hines.
"Freedom means not having to be in your home at a certain time every night, not being unable to speak to whomever you want and not being stopped in the streets and checked for identification." Hines said in a speech delivered last night to a meeting of the Association of the United States Army.
Hines, a Topela resident and Democratic candidate for the Kansas House of Representatives, was a teen-ager in Belgium when Nazi Germany annexed her country. She is a member of the Board of Regents at Washburn University where she taught as an adjunct assistant professor in the communication studies department.
"None of you knows what it means to see your flag replaced by a swastika, or to have the king of your country announce to all the citizens that you must obey the Nazis," she said. "Every morning for four years, I received hatred and a slap in the face."
Hines spoke of her experiences under Nazi rule, as well the importance of freedom in America.
She told the story of finding a letter sent by a dying man to his family in Belgium.
"He was in a concentration camp, and he sent this simple message to his wife and children," she said. "The note said, 'Love your mother. Love one another, and above all, meet your responsibilities first, before ever demanding your rights.' I took that note with me then and will carry it with me for the rest of my life."
"When I came to this country, I fell in love with the freedom everyone enjoyed," she said. "I fell in love with what I could accomplish."
Hines said that freedom was just one way for people to be better. She stressed the importance of determination and discipline, and taking advantage of the freedom every American has.
Lines said that living in a Nazi-controlled country gave her a different perspective on America.
"You are young, the new generation," she said.
"And you will be part of a new America. But you
not be able to shape this country unless you work
at it, and you care."
"My greatest sadness is talking to young people who say they are disgruntled with the bureaucracy, and they don't want to vote," she said. "But there is no excuse for not voting. Each one of us has the obligation to be a part of the government in any way we can."
During her campaigning, Hines has visited with many students who told her they would not vote.
