Two KU Graduates Join Peace Corps
Rodney Angle, '65 KU graduate in math, and his wife Karen, Miss Kansas of 1964, are now in Panama on their assignment as Peace Corps volunteers.
Mrs. Angle attended Friends University for two years and then transferred to KU. She majored in music and social work.
THE COUPLE completed 11 weeks of Peace Corps training at the University of Arizona and left for Panama Nov. 21.
The Peace Corps volunteers in Panama are presently working in agricultural extension and cooperatives. The Angle's group will supplement their efforts and replace those completing two years of service. Some will work on community development in remote Indian settlements.
The job of the community development worker is to help his neighbors collectively define their common problems and work together toward solutions.
With the arrival of the Angle's group, approximately 150 Peace
Corps volunteers will be at work in Panama in community development, co-operatives, agricultural extension and health.
DURING TRAINING they studied Spanish, methods of instruction, and techniques of improving fishing, cultivation, sanitation, and health.
The departing volunteers join the 10,000 other Peace Corps volunteers now working in 46 nations of Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
Despite these numbers, many more volunteers are needed.
Persons interested in starting a two-year Peace Corps assignment this winter should complete and submit a Peace Corps application as soon as possible and take the Peace Corps placement test, which is given throughout the country the second Saturday of each month.
All information can be obtained at post offices or by writing the Peace Corps, Washington, D.C.

For the first time in the history, the University Daily Kansan will have a woman editor. Zeth Hammer, a senior, was elected by the Board to serve during the month following the holidays.
The University of Kansas has no cafeteria—a fact often regretted by hungry students who would like to have a bite between classes. Often breakfast is an impossibility owning to a ready awakening. A cafeteria is needed badly.

Chances of building a north wing to the Memorial Union Building are brighter as a result of the annual meeting of the Memorial Union Corporation Board. Two committees will make further investigation to the project.
Another step toward beautification of the Campus was taken with planting near Potter Lake of 20 burr oak trees.
