Martin, Hall Will Present forum
On Problems Of Student Drinking
Poll Shows
More Want
Law Change
J. Winston Martin, as
sociate dean of student Af
fairs, and Dr. William Hall
from the department of edu
cational psychology and mea
surements will present a for
um on student drinking to
day at 3:30 p.m. in the Stu
dent Union small auditorium.
This is the first seminar of
a series planned by Student
Council resulting from the
student polls on drinking tak
en last semester. These polls
showed that 'approximately 60
per cent of those polled de
sired a change in the drink
ing laws, while the other 40
per cent desired either no ac
tion or stricter laws.
Tom Kort, public issues
chairman for Student Coun
cil, said the student body so
far hasn't shown much inter
est in the problem. He added
that if more interest isn't
shown, especially in these
seminars, the issue would be
dropped.
Since the poll indicated a
rather strong dissatisfaction
of the status quo, the Student
Council plans to further its
research on the discussion
through seminars of this type.
The Council is analyzing the
drinking situation at other
universities and observing
how they handle the problem.
At today's discussion Mar
tin will speak on the admin
istrative problems involved
with drinking. Hall will dis
cuss the psychology of stu
dent drinking.
The discussion is intended
merely to present the facts
and background on student
drinking, and give a m o r e
complete understanding of the
problem. Students will also be
given a chance to question the
speaker.
Student council is planning
other discussions in the future
with city and state officials,
state legislators, and outside
observers.

Group Will Speak
To Organizations
A six-member Peace Corps recruiting team will arrive
on campus today to officially open Peace Corps Week, an
effort to contact all interested upperclassmen and acquaint
them with the advantages of serving in the Corps.
The group will talk to living units and organizations,
distribute literature from the Peace Corps booth in the
Student Union and give the Peace Corps placement test
at 2:30 p.m., 4:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. daily.
Members of the recruiting team are Charles Caldwell,
director of public information for the Peace Corps; War
ren Schmidt, Peace Corps representative to the National
4-H foundation; Miss Gertrude Schwartz, a member of the
Peace Corps management staff; and three newly returned
volunteers Burt Swanson, just back from Cyprus and Jim
and Ruthina Rusk, who worked in Sierra Leone under the
Peace Corps program for married couples.
Mrs. Rusk is a graduate of the University Teachers
College.
Advance preparations for Peace Corps Week were
conducted by James Gibson, member of the Peace Corps
staff in Washington, D.C. Gibson said that the team hopes
to have around 150 University students register and take
the placement exams.
Questionaires and applications for the exams will be
available at the information booth. Anyone wishing to take
the test should fill out the application and present it at the
test center in the Union at the time he wishes to take the
test.
Applicants must be over 18 and citizens of the United
States, said Gibson. Married couples, are eligible to apply
only if both intend to be Corps members and they have no
children under 18. '
The Peace Corps volunteer serves two years, explained
Gibson, including a three month training program. While
in training he receives free room and board and $2 per day
for expenses.
"Overseas they receive a salary equivalent to their
local counterpart," Gibson said. "When they return to the
United States they get a readjustment allowance of $75
per month $1800 in all."
"That's not a lot of money, but how many college
graduates save $900 a year no matter where they work?
he asked.
The Corps presently has 7,500 volunteers serving in 45
countries (the workers in Cyprus were removed when the
recent civil war broke out.) Gibson said that they hope
to have 10,500 by the end of 1964 and 14,000 by the end of
the following year.
About one half of the volunteers are teaching in or
ganized school systems throughout the world. Gibson em
phasized that a large percentage of these teachers are
liberal arts graduates who never trained to be teachers.
Of the remainder, about one fourth are engaged in
community help projects and the others work in agricul
tural extension, health and sanitation or other public works
projects.
"There could be a spot for everyone who is interested
and desires to work with others and help them help them
selves to a better way of life," said Gibson.
"This is a post-graduate experience second to none:
living in a foreign culture, not as a tourist, military or gov
ernment employee; working and living in the remotest
areas in the world; living as the people do; speaking their
language; changing the image of the rich American."
