Exchange jobs
AIESEC group formed
A local committee of the Association for the International Education of Students in Economics and Commerce (AIESEC) has been formed at KU.
AISECIC (eye-sec) is a private, non-profit, student-administered organization. It promotes a reciprocal exchange of short-term business training assignments for students of economics and business administration.
AIESEC was founded in 1948 by European students. Today, students from 270 universities in 40 countries participate, including 60 colleges and universities in the U.S.
Laurel eulogy
HOLLYWOOD — (UPI) — Dick Van Dyke's eulogy, "Tribute to Stan Laurel," will be published as a preface to the reprint edition of the book, "Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy."
KU'S PROGRAM began last spring. Tom Pate, Chanute senior, Duane Drake, Alden senior, and Mark Retonde, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, with David Hitchin, professor of international business, and Joseph W. McGuire, dean of the School of Business, and Wiley S. Mitchell, associate dean, are responsible for initiating KU's AIESEC program.
AIESEC-KANSAS has had its first meeting and plans to have another "in a week or so," according to Pate, president of the group.
"Our main activities this semester will be job solicitation (convincing area companies to accept foreign students as trainees next summer) and getting members registered for traineeships," Pate said.

Eric Petersen, instructor of the class, said. "When I started teaching the class five semesters ago, students had been surveying at Potter Lake. I moved the class up here (by Lewis) because some of the living groups had begun keeping files on surveying at Potter than I did."

ing department. Petersen said it mainly involves learning to compute distances, figuring areas contained within given boundaries and discerning differences in elevation.
Yesterday his students were "proving" that a circle contains 360 degrees by swinging their telescopes (called surveyors' levels) in a circle, taking angular readings from landmark to landmark and, after reaching the starting point, adding up the results.
The hillside behind Lewis Hall was surveyed yesterday afternoon for approximately the 100th time—and fourteen or fifteen men will be surveying the same area again tomorrow.
"Their readings usually have an error of about 1/30 of one degree," Petersen said.
"We will also be recruiting some members from other area schools such as UMKC," he said.

"The class will be more interesting to watch later on when we're surveying along the base of Irving Hill Road."

"Stands to reason that a life insurance policy designed expressly for college men—and sold only to college men—gives you the most benefits for your money when you consider that college men are preferred insurance risks.
