Summer Tour
Last week’s Courier carried a
story about PCC’s annual over¬
seas study program for the
summer. The story was errone¬
ous, since PCC is not sponsor¬
ing the tour this summer. A
tour from June 24 through Sep¬
tember 1 is now the Western
States Colleges Overseas Pro¬
gram. Dr. Bryant Giles and
Robert Warren of the PCC fac¬
ulty are, however, in charge of
this summer 1968 study tour.

through “work for pay” jobs

Gymnasts Cop
AAU Crown
PCC's gymnastics team, coach¬
ed by Jerry Todd, successfully de¬
fended its Junior National AAU
gymnastics title at Hurst, Texas,
last Saturday.
The Lancers were led by Tom
Proulx, who entered six events
and won three of them. He took
the long horse, the high bar, and
the floor exercise, and couldn’t
compete in the tumbling because
of an AAU rule that prohibits
winners of the AAU senior title
in an event from entering compe¬
tition in that event at a later
meet.
Proulx took seconds in the rings
and parallel bars. PCC scored
362.9 points, easily beating out the
New York Athletic Club with
274.95, and the New Orleans AC,
Tennessee, and Louisiana. There
were 48 teams and over 250 ath¬
letes.

tails.

Notices to draft boards have
been mailed to certify full-time
spring enrollment for those stu¬
dents who requested them, accord¬
ing to the dean of student per¬
sonnel services.

12 units are reported. To be eli¬
gible for deferment, a student
must be making normal progress,
which requires a minimum of 30
new units a year.
The list of those students re¬
ported is posted outside 106C. It
includes all continuing students,
and new students, or those who
re-entered last month.

Adelphians Start
Easter Project
Looking forward to Easter eggs
this year? The kind that the Adel¬
phians sell? Well forget it, be¬
cause there won’t be any this Eas¬
ter, at least not from the Adelphi¬
ans.
Instead of selling Easter eggs,
the Adelphians are making and
sending Easter cards to service¬
men in Viet Nam.
Recently the service group re¬
ceived a letter from a lonely serv¬
iceman in Vietnam asking them
to organize a project encourag¬
ing students here to send cards
and letters to all of our men.
He stated that all of U.S. service¬
men would appreciate this gesture
of friendship.
Soon the Adelphians will launch
a project to make about 1000
cards.

Talks Here
Princess Alice Siwondhala, one
of the most highly educated wo¬
men of modern Africa, will tell
of her incredible life at the Tues¬
day Evening Forum, next
Tuesday at 8 p.m. in Sexson Au¬
ditorium.
Born of Christian parents in Jo¬
hannesburg, South Africa, Prin¬
cess Alice and her brother and sis¬
ter were orphaned when quite
young, and left in a strange land
(Malawi) to be reared by their
grandmother’s tribe.
The children were soon able to
go to a mission school where
the story of their life, told in
Princess Alice’s sparkling man¬
ner, is a fascinating story of cour¬
age and faith.
It was the Ralph Edwards
“This Is Your Life” Show that
brought Princess Alice and her
family to this country. Ralph Ed¬
wards later wrote of her ap¬
pearance: “Needless to say, hers
was one of the most inspiring
lives of all we presented through
the years.”
Princess Alice and her husband,
Hulme Aiwundhla, have three
children. They are living in San
Diego where both husband and
wife are working on their doc¬
torates in preparation for return¬
ing to Africa to help their people.
Princess Alice speaks six lang¬
uages. She will speak here in Eng¬
lish, telling of her almost un¬
believable life, from abject tribal
conditions to her present status
as one of the most highly edu¬
cated women in all of Africa.
“She is a product of mission
school, and through her life runs
a golden thread of faith which
makes itself evident when she
shares her story with her listen¬
ers,” Forum officials say.
Band Schedules Concert

Pasadena, The Tournament of Roses, and the Pasadena City College
Student Body in the islands from April 5 to 12.
