Through the Foster Parents
Plan, individuals or organiza

poverty stricken children in
many lanas. ine cnnaren cor

him with medical care, cloth

per month.
Hai is the oldest of four
children. Before the V i e t
Cong uprising, he lived with
his f ather, who worked on the
rubber plantation of Long
Thanh, about 65 miles north
of Saigon. Whea the area be
came unsafe for his family,
Hai's father moved the fam

see them on weekends.
The father was elected zone
chief of the area in 1963, but
was killed by the Viet Cong
shortly afterward. His fam
ily received an indemnity of

Dr. Sue Arbuthnot, associ
ate professor of elementary
education, who teaches the
class,, says that the , course
consists of a wide study of all
forms of elementary writing
and a study of techniques
which make children want to
read.
Sometimes the class visits
local libraries to try these
techniques on children who
visit these libraries on Satur
day afternoon.
In addition to pure litera
ture, they study books which
interest children in s u c h
things as history, sociology
and other subjects which they
will meet on a higher.leyeL -
Dr. John Lonnquist, profes

$32.36, but part of that
amount had to be used for
funeral expenses.
With the remainder of the
money the widow bought a
cart and peddled home-made
soap iu the streets of Saigon
to support her family. She
found it quite difficult to keep
her children well fed and In
school on 34 cents per day.
Hai lives now with an aunt,
who sells bread and sausage
on the sidewalk. They live in
a 13 by 16' house with wooden
walls and a cement floor. It
is furnished with three beds,
one of which belongs to Hai's
family.
The case history received
by the Phi Psis says that Hai
is an active, well, behaved
boy with bright features and
a good complexion. He is in
the third grade and doing well
tn school, although he has
some troubls in mathema
tics. Hal's ambition is to be a
soldier and protect bis home
land against the communists
that killed his father, whom
be misses very much.
A pamphlet from the Fos
ter Parents Plan encourages
"parents" to write to the chil
dren but cautions them that
letters must not be written
at a rate of more than one
tances of plants to insects,
disease and adverse tempera
ture condiditions. He added
that no specific plants are
emphasized because the prin
ciples studied form a background-
for any individual
plant problems that the stu
dents might have to deal
with.
The course deals in current
literature and include? a
study of the extensive re
search in plant breeding done
by University professors.
For students wishing to be
come more proficient camp
ers or to prepare themselves
for summer jobs as camp
counselors, camp leadership,
taught by Rosalie Giffhorn,
assistant professor of physical
J education for women, offers
a basic knowledge in camp
craft. Camp leadership covers the
history and philosophy of
camping and instruction in
cooking and camping. A high
light in this class is a camp
ing trip planned and executed
by the -class at a local camp.
The student must attend this
trip in order to receive credit
for the course.

A discount plan available to
Iowa State University stu
dents, similar to the one pro
posed here, has been unsuc
cessful, according to the Iowa
State Daily, the campus news
paper. The proposal at Iowa State,
whereby students would re
ceive an approximate ten per
cent discount on items pur
chased from participating
stores, was apparently boy
cotted by the merchants in
Ames.
Many objections arose which
brought hopes for a price lib
eralization to a standstill.
Merchant skepticism was
highlighted by fears that a
lowering of prices would not
produce a necessary increase
in volume.
Several merchants reported

that they would consider join
ing the plan "only if it could
guarantee them a certain vol
ume of sales," said the Daily.
Such doubts werir apparently
augmented by a conviction
that overhead and other fixed
costs would produce an im
possible situation.
Factory franchises evident
ly became the scapegoats in
a general denial of the price
cut proposal, as local busi
nessmen claimed that manu
facturers would "stop the sup
ply of merchandise to stores
who constantly undersold the
national price."
Paul Mumm, manager of
the Campustown Skelley sta
tion said he was not in favor
of giving a discount to any
one. "None of my regular

stamps with tvery purchase at Miller
business customers ask for a
discount," he said.
Les Larson, manager of the
Deep Rock station, said his
margin of net profit would be
cut to nothiug if he gLe
even a small discount.
Dick Ross of Bruce-Ross
Campustown store said "If
they have the stores to go in
on it, more power to them,
but we can't join. Our over
head costs won't permit it."
Pre-pricing of nationally ad
vertised brand lines was an
other reason why merchants
felt the program unworkable.
Harold Jameson of Jame
son's downtown store pointed
out that three-fourths of his
brand name merchandise was
covered under fair trade
agreements.
