INTERNATIONAL FETE
Festival set Saturday
A mosaic of color and festivity will prevail at 8 p.m. Saturday in Hoch Auditorium when KU's foreign students, dressed in their native costumes, will present their 13th annual International Festival.
FOR THE LAST two months, a steering committee, chaired for the first time by an American student, Dale Sprague, McPherson junior, has been planning this program of songs, dance, drama and comedy.
The musical fare will be varied and unusual: from a tempestuous Latin American cha-cha to the fragile movements of "Rum Mae Bot," the Thai love dance; from the power of an African war dance to the swirl of a Chinese
silk ribbon dance to the jollity of a Filipino dance medley. The program will also feature a Greek dance, "Syrtos;" "Qawali," an Indian song; the "Lebanese Dabke," an Arabian chant, and "Boo-Cahe Choom," a Korean dance.
Beginning at 6 p.m. in Hoch, an exhibition of films, paintings, jewelry and other products will render an exotic kaleidoscope of the cultural arts and scenery from 14 countries.
CONTINENTAL HUMOR will find its echo in German-Austrian parodies found in the skit, "Togetherness on the Trail." "Humor, American Style" will also be represented by Stan Metzger, Ozawkie junior.
Acting as master of ceremonies will be David Finch, British graduate student.
The event focuses on KU's 529 international students and will award prizes to the most outstanding exhibits and program shows.
Invitations have been sent to international organizations on nearby campuses and to some of the consulates in Kansas City.

Two experimental projects have been planned by People-to-People to interchange ideas between American and foreign students at KU.
Those American students interested in enrolling in any of the courses to be taught by native speakers should sign up at the People-to-People office in the Kansas Union.

Every two weeks this program meets and discusses current international problems.
