Homecoming Activities Set

The week of February 6-11
has been officially designated
Homecoming Week for Peninsula College. This year’s homecoming with the theme,’ In Days
of Old” has many new ideas
and should prove entertaining
for everybody who participates.
There is a full schedule of
events beginning on Monday
with a box social sponsored by
the freshman class.
Tuesday will be slave day
and this year those nominated
for royalty will be sold and after they have been sold the royalty will be announced. This

is one of the new ideas this
year’s homecoming will feature
and it should result in a more
interesting slave day.
Wednesday will be Games
Day, sponsored by the AWS.
There will be competition between faculty and students.
Thursday is Grub Day sponsored by the BOC.
Friday will be Pirate Day and
will be conducted by the pep
squad. There is a pep rally
slated for noon with a rock

Washington State Colleges; -Cluster or Cloister?-

By HUGH DAVIS
This year’s stale legislature
has on its agenda proposals to
revamp the current state system
of locating colleges. Much time
and expense has been lost in
the past attempting to decide
where new colleges would
benefit the state and much controversy exists about what to do
with present facilities.
With the advent of the “cluster
college” on the west coast, the
nation and the state of Washington are beginning to see
a possible solution to the growing need for more and immediate colleges. Many legislators
are putting their faith behind
the “cluster college” or borrowing system, which utilizes present facilities. When a large university stands in proximity to
many small colleges; the cluster or composite system would
avail the small college the opportunity to use the larger
school’s facilities. For the past
four years, the University of Pacific has been testing the borrowing method with great success. Santa Barbara College,
using the same system, is the
example now going before the
90th congress.
In our own state legislature,
a proposal to district colleges is
in the offing. The plan is to divide the state into districts and
allot each district, according to
population, the number of colleges needed. Should such legislation become law, the peninsula’s chances of acquiring a
four-year school would become
solidified but also the progress
toward getting a university or

state college in this area would
be greatly impaired. To have
a stale institution granted to the
Olympic Peninsula, population
would have to increase by 20
percent. If Port Angeles were
to receive the grant, the city
vzould have to increase population, job prospects and facilities.

Committee for 18-year-Old Vote Pushing Legislation

The Committee for the 18-
Year-Old Vote, working out of
Tacoma and chairmaned by
Dan Molony, has sent an official petition to the Publication
Department of Peninsula College which it hopes to transfer
to the current legislature in
Olympia.
Molony states that “thousands
of young Americans, aged 18,
19 and 20 years old, are in fact
second class citizens.” He goes
on to state the responsibilities
that people of this age bracket
are “required and/or allowed
to assume, such as (1) marriage
and parenthood; (2) compulsory
military service and possible

death on the battlefield; (3) full
adult legal penalties for crime
or misdemeanor; and (4) taxation.” He asks why shouldn’t
the privilege and right of vote
be added?
The majority and minority
leaders of the United States Senate, Senators Mansfield ©-Montana) and Dirksen (R-Illinois)
have introduced a bill to lower
the voting age to 18 for national
elections. It is this committee’s
intention to have a similar bill
passed by the Washington State
Legislature.
The petition is in the Publication Room if you are interested
in adding your name.

President ‘s Board

MR. E. JOHN MAIER, PENINSULA COLLEGE PRESIDENT

Peninsula College, with its beautiful setting
—the Olympics in the background, and the
strait of Juan de Fuca in the foreground—
makes an ideal location for a campus. The
architectural design of the buildings suit this
setting admirably. To take advantage of the
location a minimum of forest was cleared;
therefore requiring landscaping only in the
areas immediately surrounding the buildings.
The Federated Garden Clubs of the Olympic Peninsula donated approximately $900
which was used to start the plantings in the
courtyard. An additional 1500 trees and
shrubs were planted this fall and winter. The
plantings include rhododrendrons, laurel,
holly, dogwood, maple, white brich, Oregon
grape and azaleas. Lawn will be planted
in the areas by the Humanities building and
the gymnasium.
It is my hope that this beautiful campus
will provide the atmosphere necessary for
excellent education to take place.

STEVE OHRMAN, STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT

Few students realize the joy of having a
student center, and only a few of these realize how quickly the P.U.B. can be closed
down. This is not meant as a threat, but is
written as fact. For those who have their
doubts, ask any student who attended Peninsula last year.
Why should the P.U.B. be closed?
The answer is obvious. Take a close look
al the condition of the center after a few
hours of abuse by students. How many
limes a day can you see a person grind a
cigarette into the floor? By noon can you
find a table that is not cluttered with empty

cups, sticky with spilled pop, or littered with
torn napkins and spilled ashtrays? If you’re
lucky, you can even catch the P.U.B. joker
igniting a collection of junk on the table top.
This usually results in a collection of mature
students delighted by the black smoke.
I do not wish to sound like a white lamb
among black sheep. I must admit that I also
am guilty of leaving tables dirty; yet, I would
hale to see the P.U.B. closed down. Think
what il would be like lo lose the center.
Please bus your own tables. If we all work
to keep the P.U.B. clean, we can keep the
right lo use it.

1967 No Chance Resolutions:

All personal new year resolutions have by this time evaporated into reality. Some of the seance-seeking, supposedly clairvoyant prognoticators have their predictions in the books for all
to view. Il’s now my turn. The following are my foreseeings for
1967 that have no chance at all of ever evolving. Wouldn’t it be
nice, however, if
Red China would come to the compromise and negotiating
table with the United States so that we could get our collective tail
out of Viet Nam with an agreeable settlement for all concerned;
you could walk by a pawn shop and see a well-traveled, wellworn, but most important, retired congressman’s briefcase, bearing
the initials Adam Clayton P.; George and Lurleen Wallace would
get a divorce, so we could see who would get custody of Alabama;
all nations of the world would agree on a total disarmament pact,
and then abide by it.
Not to mention these quick items: a man’s word would be his
bond; people would stop using atheist and communist as dirty
words and regard them as philosophies; people would tolerate
another’s point-of-view al all times; teenagers would slop being
stereotyped; the Ku Klux Klan would be read about only in history books; a man could be accepted for what he is, regardless
of how he looks, dresses, wears his hair, etc., etc., etc., etc..

Just Where Are We Heading?

Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Friday, January 27, 1967—Headline
reads: “McNamara’s Cold Analysis of Doomsday”—a sign*of the
times? The following is a mood piece on some apparent contemporary attitudes. Just exactly where are we heading, when:
Crime rates around the world are establishing all-time highs;
police and payola are becoming altogether too much associated;
Adam and Eve are still believed by some to have been the earth’s
first inhabitants, but worse yet, some proclaim God is dead; the
name of religion is being widely-used — a new religion based
on LSD use, KKK using religion as spiritual source to spread hale
and fear; drug use expanding astoundingly; morality is a joke;
people linking communist infiltration with absolutely every deed;
respect, honesty and loyalty obsolete; young kids in Red China using resemblance of President Johnson as targets; junkies, pimps,
johns, and prostitutes living off an increasing audience; survival
of the fastest new theory both on highway and city; homosexuality
increasing as sick minds increase
As if that weren’t enough: you’re old enough to kill but not
for voting; individuality is not accepted; conformity is the rule in all
cases; marches can’t bring integration when respect for a man
is disintegrating; we’re told it’s very calm and peaceful up in
space, so why not here where it counts; disease, poverty, and
hunger are world problems, world population growing too fast for
world; theory now is not “if you can’t say something nice, don’t
say it,” it’s “if you can’t say something I want to hear, don’t say
it”—ninety miles-an-hour down a dead-end road.

Big Ban For Drug Doctor

By now you’ve all heard of Dr. Timothy Leary and his infamous psychedelic religious celebrations, featuring LSD. And also
his ultimate ban of the Seattle City Center by that city’s City
Council. A very definite stand on this issue is very difficult to
achieve. The doctor of psychology and former Harvard professor
is the center of swirling controversy—can we constitutionally deny
his right to speak, but can we as a society afford to hear what he
advocates?
It is my belief that Dr. Leary should not be banned on a stage
that would probably tolerate such fine Americans as Gus Hall,
George Lincoln Rockwell, etc. The man has a point-of-view to
express. The possible repercussions will have to be secondary in
importance. Those are only possibilities. What is certain is that
the man is being told that he cannot speak. This should be the
foremost issue involved.

Dear Editor: AWS Needs More Woman!

Editor:
Why don’t more of the women students take pride in their
college by participating actively in their organization? The
organization we mean, of
course, is A.W.S., the Associated Women Students, designed
to unite the women students in
an effort to improve themselves
intellectually, culturally, and
socially through participation in
a variety of programs and activities on our college campus.
However, without the combined
effort of its members these purposes cannot be met.
General meetings are held
twice a month in order to acquaint the women with what
has happened and what will
happen in the organization. It
also gives each and every girl
a chance to voice an opinion
and make suggestions on procedures and activities of A.W.S.
However, the last few meetings
have been so ill-attended that
major decisions have had to be
made by the officers alone.
We would like to see A.W.S.
have more activities, but we
can’t have them if we have no
volunteers to help suggest ideas
and carry out the plans. We
have a few faithful helpers, but
a job that requires the help and
cooperation of everyone cannot
be carried out by a few.
The next activity will be an
evening meeting on February 1.
The main business will be to announce the outstanding woman
for the fall quarter, and award
her with a plaque and a pin to
signify her hard work.
We, the officers of A.W.S.,
feel that this can still be the best
year yet for our organization,
but not without the help of every woman student. We’re doing our part. ARE YOU?
The Officers of A.W.S.

“Genesis” of Authority, Conformity

By DICK HOPMAN
In the beginning there was
the administration, to them the
earth was waste and void; darkness covered their abyss and
their spirit began to stir above
the land and waters.
The administration said, ‘ Let
there be light,” and there was
light. A million street lights
sprung up and the administration saw that the light was good.
They separated the dark from
the light by pulling a switch and
the million lamp posts shone
over the land. They looked and
said, “this is good.”
Then the administration looked again and .said, “The earth
brings forth vegetation: seed
bearing plants and all kinds of
fruit trees that bear fruit containing their seed.” And so they
did. The earth had every kind
of seed-bearing plant and all
kinds of trees that bore seed.
The administration molded these
trees, it shaped them, removed
them and replanted them. It
grafted and experimented and
cross-pollinated until all the
land’s vegetation grew in the
image and likeness preferred
by the administration. They
looked around and said, “This
is good.”
The administration began to
look once more and saw all the
animals. They said, “The waters abound with life, and above
the earth the winged creatures
fly.” This was so. The administration said, “Cage them, control them and run tests on them.”
This was done. The administration looked around and
blessed them with approving
smiles and said, “Be fruitful,
multiply in your new environment.” They did and the administration said, “This is good.”

The fourth day the administration looked about and noticed that the land held many
creatures of all manner. Crawling creatures and wild creatures. And so it was. The administration said, “Let us name
these creatures and put them
in order.” This they did and
so became upper, lower and
middle classes. So became the
manic-depressives and the schizophrenics, and so became good
girls and bad girls, and so became the alcoholics and affluents. The creatures were all
named and catalogued and
that was the evening of the
fourth day, the administration
looked and smiled and said,
“That’s good, that’s real good.”
The morning of the fifth day
brought the administrators into
new thought and they said, “Not
only have we produced what is
worthwhile, now let us have
dominion over all. Over the
fish in the sea, over the cattle,
and over all wild animals and
every creature that crawls on
the land.” This they accomplished, they subdued and controlled all, telling of the advantages that would arise from all
of this. And every creature
gave voice saying what wise
rulers they had, no creature
need fear for the administration is always there and here
and everyplace.
This is the story of how the
administration created benefits
for all the creatures’and called
it Eden for “Elimination of Damage due to Environmental nescience.” Thus a mist formed
as the administration returned
man into dust and breathed life
from his soul and man became
a non-being on the sixth day.
and the world rested on the
seventh.

Communism, Hypnotism And Rock

By Robert Ludke
The Rev. David A. Noebel’s appearance in this college’s Little Theatre last week certainly developted into an odd situation; the question was who could be the rudest – the guest – or the hosts.
Noebel, in his own words, “was being facetious” at times, bit I deem him outdone. The audience and the panel members, at times, made him look like he was the original father of good will.
Panel members, two, tried to trap him with lead-on questions Audience questioners, three, verged on screaming retorts. This is not to say that the ministor didnt get in his verbal jobs. But the “discussion” sometimes became overheated.
As far as I know, Rev. Noebel was here to warn the people assembled of the dangers involved in some of the contemporary music. He was not here to sell literature-he gave out over 200 books free-he was not here to advocate overthrow of an entire musical sect-he pondered over whether or not he would sign a petition to remove Dylan songs from the radio-he was here to inform the delegation of some of the things he believed. The negative attitude that he was met with before opening his mouth. the attempts to ridicule him. were met with retaliation. He was expressing something he believed in Io an audience of non-believers. If nothing else, give him credit for having the courage to enter the lion’s den. Would you?

Books, theatre reviews:”Greatest story ever told”

The Greatest Story Ever Told is not the greatest show on earth. In a film that offers Satan as a blue eyed- ragamuffin, charlton Heston recreating all his past biblical performances at once, some scenic Arizona scenert, and Pat Boone, one resulting flaw is that it is too clean. Jesus is still a handsome man, and from His fist red-letter speech, the viewer finds him self believing in Max Von Sydow As the Hero, he can naturally do no wrong. But when a blind man looks like Ed Wynn, a centurion sounds like John Wayne, and David McCallum as Judas cries U.N.C.L.E. there remiands fewer actors than imposters. The twelve disiples give an impression of having grown up in saloons.
Hollywood again has tried too hard at playing God. This work of money is an exact self-portrait of the industry behind it-beautified. When they learn to set the Bible to no music but its own, to leave all sound effects to heaven, and to value our real tears, the the film gods can sit back as artists. Until then, in their starry attempts, they themselves may be guilty of blasphemy and sorcery.

“Chiefs and Packers – Proved Little”

By Robert Ludke

The Super Bowl is to lootball what the World Series is to
baseball and the NBA Play-offs is to basketball. The only difference is that the football finals will not be in doubt for many years
to come.
The National Football Leagues representatives will defeat the
American Football League’s for the next several years for the
simple reason that the former is a superior organization.
When Green Bay’s Packers and the Kansas City Chiefs, the
first the NFL standard-bearers and the latter the AFL titlists, met
in Los Angeles’ vast Coliseum, the Packers’ 35-10 victory was the
most predictable thing since man discovered woman. The Chiefs
were simply out-classed.
There are those die-hards that claim that one game is no
indication of the strength of the two teams, which is certainly true.
But, it is also true that Green Bay did not play a particularly outstanding game and still won by over three converted touchdowns.
The game proved little in that the eventual verdict was so
obvious. Perhaps the Super Bowl should be changed to the
Superfluous Bowl. At least it was appropriate that the slaughter
should take place in a coliseum.

Clay and Terrell – Then What?

Houston’s multi-million dollar astrodome will be the scene
February 6 for the first title defense of the year for heavyweight
champion Muhammad Ali. It should be his last real test of the
year.
Louisville’s Ali, by way of the Black Muslims, and Chicago’s
Terrell, by way of the Musician’s Union, will finally meet to resolve
the two-year-old question of who’s who in heavyweight champions.
The world recognizes Ali; the World Boxing Association, which
encompasses about five people, recognizes Terrell. The evening
of February 6 wil result in one man on the top sneering down.
Many think Ali will wade right through Terrell. Many think
Terrell will give him a test before falling. None think he will
emerge with the marbles.
Terrell should give Ali some trouble. He will be the only
man that Ali has fought in several years who will have a height
and reach advantage. The only thing is that Ali will not have
much worry about risking going inside because Terrell has not
knocked anyone out for several years.
Terrell should tire before Ali. Then the champ can work
inside and do his job. Ali must have a soft place in his heart
for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police—one way or the other,
he always seems to get his man.

Seatle, the U, Philly and Lew

With northwest fortunes slumping recently in the basketball
wars, most interest has been transferred to THE teams in college
and professional ranks.
Seattle University Chieftains and University of Washington
Huskies have found competition getting tougher. The Huskies
especially have been taking their lumps with monotous regularity
in league and inter-sectional clashes. The Chiefs still have a good
chance to rebound after a pair of losses and earn an independent
berth in the NCAA finals, but their task is formidable.
Lev/ Alcindor and the UCLA Bruins, as of this writing, have
not been severely challenged. They might not be for the next
three years unless (1) Alcindor shrinks a foot; (2) coach John
Wooden stops pressing; or (3) the whole Bruin team drops dead.
All three are highly unlikely.
The Philadelphia 76ers of the National Basketball Association
have finally overtaken the Boston Celtics in NBA supremacy. With
Wilt Chamberlain handing out almost as many assists as points,
Philadelphia looks unstoppable. Especially considering Chamberlain’s playmates include Billy Cunningham, Hal Greer, Lucius
Jackson and others.

New Players Added to Hoop Rosters

The second half of the Peninsula College intramural basketball program is underway as all eight teams have seen action. With the new quarter, new additions to each team have been made. Team 1 has acquired Greg Mason: team 2. Greg Nunn; team 3, Alan Hawley, team 4, Brent Shore; Team 5, Bill Cooper; team 6,Jim Rivetts; Team 7 Dan Swanson; and team 8, Jerry Nebel.
Team 3 has taken up where they left off last quarter, undefeated and in sole possession of first place.

Player Addition Could Aid Pirates

By DON FREY
The sometimes up but mostly
down (ed) Peninsula Pirates
have gone through a pretty dismal season, as far as winning
basketball games goes, but
have played against some rugged teams.
The latest setbacks (last weekend) were the third and fourth
of the season administered by
Olympic, third consecutive and
the 11th of 15 over the season.
As a result, the Bucs hold undistinguished possession of the
league’s cellar with a 2-10 mark,
and only eight league contests
remaining (10 totaled).
But the situation could brighten up for the hapless Peninsula
College crew. Since the beginning of the second half of the
present campaign (January 6)
with the addition of a certain
Brian Zacharias, the black and
gold have won two of six games,
including an impressive 105-95
victory over league-leading
Lower Columbia.
“The addition of Zach has
been a great lift to the team’s
morale,” stated Dave Hemion.
“He has the size and strength
to boost our rebounding department as well as being a big
scoring threat.” Dave also
thinks the Pirates have a lot
more going for them.
“In spite of our record, the
team attitude is really good. I
believe that with our altitude,
coach and personnel, we are
capable of beating any team on
any given night as long as we
work as a team”.
“The players can determine
when they want to win. For
example, the Lower Columbia
game. I was really up for that
one at least three days before
the game (Dave scored 21
points). It’s easier to get up for
a high ranking team than when
we play a bottom team.”
Dave has been coming into
his own lately. ”I’ve acquired
more confidence in my shooting
ability and I’ve been able to
get the good shot.” Hemion has
tallied 76 points for a 19 per
game average over the past
four games.
When asked about the refereeing Dave commented, “I’ve
. seen belter refereeing in summer league on beat up concrete
courts than I’ve seen in this
league during some games.”
Not scoring too many points
but certainly carrying his load,
is Brian Zacharias, a sophomore
transfer from Oregon State University.
“The Beaver frosh team employed a slow down, control
type of game and since coming
to Peninsula I’ve had to learn
an entirely different style of basketball,” stated the 6-5 pivotman. ‘But now I really love it
and wouldn’t go back to the
other style for anything. I just
wish I knew about this before
the start of the school year.”
“For this type of run and shoot
basketball, you have to be in
prime condition, both mentally
and physically. You can’t let
up for one second.”
“So far I’ve been starling most
games on the bench because I
haven’t seen any of these teams
and for that reason I don’t feel I
deserve to start.”
Brian, a sociology major, hails
from Sacramento, Calif.; has
played some ball in Germany
and is interested in attending

either Central Washington or
the University of Puget Sound
next year.
“I’m really impressed with
the beauty of this campus,’ quoted Brian. “The kids are really
friendly and I’m surprised al
the concern the teachers show
for their students.”
Even though the Pirates are
on the short end of a 4-11 record, a look at some statistics
show that Don Knowles’ charges
haven’t been beaten by much.
Individual statistics show
Bruce Shamp leading in point
production with 318* and a 21.4
point per game average. Shamp
also leads in assists with 41 and
heads the team in turn overs
with 57. His 73 rebounds puts

him behind Jerry Silves who
has hauled down 127 and Norm
Carson with 102. Silves has
181* tallies and an 11.4 points
per game average. Dave Hemion has accounted for 191* markers with a 13.1 game average.
Tom Lyons has twined the nets
for 173* beans as well as lending 38 assists.
From the foul line, Ken Cesar
has hit two for two while Al
Stautz has hit 69 percent;
Shamp, 66 percent; Hemion, 66
percent; Lyons, 65 percent; and
Silves, 58 percent. Ed Doling,
serving most of the season as a
reserve, hasn’t seen too much
action but has 21 rebounds, 17
assists and has scored 36 points. Total points through January.

Life,Liberty, and the Happiness of Female Pursuit

By HUGH DAVIS
Oh, yes, life, liberty and the
happiness of pursuit! Here at
Peninsula College one can acquire all the knowledge of
democratic processes that an
American might need or want
to know. Back among the trees
one can see the enlightenment
of freedom through dense trees
that stand as democracy stands.
Men of Peninsula, an evil
lurks in tire woods that cradle
the doctrines of free people. No,
not communism, cancer, or your
draft board. It is the comely
coeds who come to class fragrant as a flower but an ominous
odor, methinks. A flower perhaps; but then again isn’t there
a beauty about the Venus flytrap.
There are those among you,
of high heel and stimulating
gait, who would seek to snare
you and tie your hands with tire
bands of matrimony. You think
that this could not be feasible
because Peninsula is too small
and everyone knows everyone?
There is no female alive who
operates on a small scale.
Ever notice the brunette with
tire beautiful legs in your math
class? You strive to know the
power of x while she calculates
the degree at which a knee or
calf has the best advantage.
Don’t try to figure it yourself;
geometry and calculus could
not do justice to the impossible
metrics of the female thigh.
How about the blonde in your
philosophy class who peers at
you over horn-rimmed glasses.
She features you as Apollo, who
at the next moment might carry
her off to Olympus. Do not heed
the illusions of her mind, because, let’s face it, tunics are
cold and most of your knees
are knobby. No doubt a tunic
would enhance her appearance
and would behoove your disappearance.

The girl next door, who has
been in your class for twelve
years suddenly introduces herself and if she looks different,
you are in trouble. Try to remember the comforlibility of old
shoes and reassess your vision.
Indeed, if you escape the
clutch of the draft, elude the
failing lists, prepare yourselves
for the combat of your life.
Women are subtle in a charming way. They are demonstrative when need be and they can
make you feel like Apollo if
they so design. Should you
get caught with your sword
sheathed, you may be enlightened in a different manner.
That shy, affectionate, svelte,
five foot six inch blonde-haired,
blue-eyed doll you married?
You get home and find out she
is a chubby five foot two inch
(wearing high heels she is five
six), brown-eyed (wearing blue
contact lenses) perpetual speech
machine who thinks you a sex
fiend.
Need I say more? Study them
closely men, and know what
they are up to. You might even
manage to leave here with a
smile on your face knowing you
escaped them. Looking forward,
not back, to the “U” where girls
major in husband-catching.
Good luck, men.

71-Day Summer European Journey

By AMBER KARR


The 71 day whirlwind all began with the departure of the 2
p.m. flight from Seattle to London on June 14th. Miss Holm
and her friend, Miss Dugan, assistant professor of music at Amarillo College were finally on
their way. The eight hour polar
flight was made totally in natural light. The thawing ice of
Hudson Bay created lacy patterns.
London was awake and alive
at the plane’s arrival time of 7
a.m. So Miss Holm and Miss
Dugan merrily began sightseeing. That all ended quickly
when they realized that they
hadnt slept all night, or what
seemed like day to them. After
resting, they were delighted to
see the Royal Ballet which lived
up to their every expectation.
In Brusells their new Volkswagen waited for them. Little
did they know that behind that
friendly German face lurked a
faulty ignition system. After
driving only 12 miles, they
found themselves with a dead
battery. With the repair of
their car completed, they headed for the coast of Holland.
They followed along the Zeider Zee passing through old
towns where the native costumes are still worn. Sights in
Holland included a three hundred year old mill still in use,
Rembrandt’s house, and the 9th
century Count of Flanders castle
in Ghent. They also enjoyed a
presentation of the Amsterdam
symphony orchestra.
In Germany Miss Holm and
her friend went to Bremen to
visit Dr. Quast’s mother. Al
Christmas time they again visited with Mrs. Quast who is now
visiting in Port Angeles.
A not so pleasant part of Germany was a stark realization of
the effects of the war on this
country. It is so easy for us to
read the history of this conflict
and say it was unfortunate. But
we dont have houses patched
from bombings and bullets to
see everyday as a reminder.
The Germans have a greater
adjustment to make because
they have the material effects of
the war to face as well as the
immaterial.
The entrance to Berlin was
the hardest border to face. Their
passports were checked five
times, $8 worth of visas had to
be bought and the rudeness of
the guards was surprising. They

were both allowed to buy visas
to enter and to leave, but only
a visa to enter for their car.
They spent four days in Berlin
visiting with a German-exchange student, a friend of
theirs they hadn’t seen since
1957.
In Norway, Miss Holm enjoyed the friendliness of the people, and the bright colors of
their decorations. She reports
that a Norwegian Smorgasbord
is a real treat.
Some outstanding memories
of Sweden were: a visit to Dag
Hammershold’s grave which
was a touching experience; noticing how similar the countryside is to the United States; and
the warship Wassa. The ship
was on its maiden voyage when
two miles out of Stokholm a
strong wind sank it. The ship
has since been floated and
much valuable information has
been learned about 17th century navigation.
Following down the Rhine River into Austria, the elaborate
baroque style in the many
churches and monasteries overwhelms the visitor. The golden and richly decorated mosaic
walls and stained glass ceilings
made entering a church an aweinspiring experience.
In Switzerland Miss Holm and
Miss Dugan took a cog railway
up to the foot of the famous
skiing mountain, Jungfrau, 13,-
680 feet high.
Traveling along in Scotland,
one is struck by the rolling hills
of heather in its purple bloom.
The guards at the Scottish castles are dressed in their kilts and
carry bagpipes.
Although Paris, with its
squares and monuments, stands
out as the most beautiful city,
some of the people weren’t too
friendly. General De Gaulle’s
temperament towards English
speaking people is affecting the
opinion of French people also.
Many “U. S. Go Home” signs
are posted. Hurrying to catch the ferry, the travelers crossed over into

England. London at night was
a pretty sight from the top of
St. Paul’s Cathedral. On the
Thames River they visited
Sharkes Cathedral.
Al Stratford on Avon, Miss
Holm and Miss Dugan stayed
at a hotel that was there when
Shakespeare was born in 1564.
They were disappointment not
to get tickets for the drama festival presented there.
The exciting 71 day trip ended with a five day ride to Montreal on the flag ship of Canadian Pacific line. The dancing,
wonderful food and service climaxed a trip that will be remembered always.

Foreign Student Outlines Changes

By HAMAD JORED
Every country in the world
has different customs and ways
of living. This will be apparent to you if you have a chance
to travel around. You will become acquainted with lives
completely different from yours.
I have lived in this country
for almost a year, and I have
been impressed by many things.
I have tried to discover the relations that exist between parents and children. It is a common practice for American
mothers to leave their children
in the care of a baby sitter. In
Saudi Arabia the women don’t
have time to work and bring
up their children at the same
time.
It seems that the girls in this
country do whatever they please
when they have passed the age
of eighteen. This is impossible
in my country. There the girls
must remain at home until they
are married. The law doesn t
help them get out of this “protection jail”, as I call it. However, the girl is free to marry
the man of her choosing.
The head of a family is always responsible tor feeding
and educating the daughter until she leaves home. There is
no dating without an ideal “target” in mind. A date should be

at the home of a girl, with her
family, if marriage is in mind.
Therefore, not everybody is intereseted in that, because it also
means “getting involved.”
The old people must be respected by the young. You
must not even smoke in front
of your parents or elders. If
you are the youngest member
of a family, you must be ready
to serve them during meals.
These are rather difficult things
to do, but it’s a small sample of
the way of life there.
