Social activities for the American Field Service students . in the Salt Lake area were climaxed with a dancing party . at the Prudential. Federal Savings and Loan Building, June 28, where they and their local friends and families were joined by 160 AFS students from other western states. Host for the gala event was Mr. .Bartlett Wicks, regional director, assisted by Mrs. Virginia Ouentin Howard, president ofthe Salt lake Chapter. Emotional tension ran high thruout the evening with the impending moment of departure at seven thirty the next morning lending dramatic impact to every smile, handshake, greeting and unspoken word. It could be seen and felt by everyone present under-neath the gaiety of meeting new friends from one's own homeland and being with year old friends from one's exchange home and country. Bien C. Filet, one of the out-standing local students, expressed the appreciation of the group in a tribute to Mrs. Howard for her understanding help and devoted interest to them, presenting her with a corsage. Through her he was able to thank all the "moms" with whom they had been living, "especially my own," in words of simple dignity and deep sincerity, bringing a touching, un-forgettable, lump-in-the-thr- oat moment to everyone present. Ilske Luth, with natural charm then presented Mr. Wicks with a button-hole flower, breaking the tension with her delightful little expression of gratitude for the work of this indefatigable man who has endeared himself to them during their stay. During the evening refresh-ments were enjoyed, compliments of the Pet Ice Cream and Coca-Col-a Companies. The only program of the informal evening consisted of drawing for prizes donated by W. H. Blntz Co., Salt Lake Hardware Co., Strevell-Paterso- n Hardward Co., and the O. C. Tanner Jewelry Co. Exchange students from the most . distant countries .were chosen to draw the winning tickets. They were Victoria F. Lacdan, Manila, Philippines, who resided with Dr. and Mrs. Frank H. Tyler, Murray; Yoko Kobayashi, Tochigi-Ke- n, Japan, who stayed with Mr. and Mrs. John E. Bradley, Jr. Salt Lake City; and Jati Sofiati M:jkadir West Yava, Indonesia who was with Mr. and Mrs. Jay C. Fullmer, Salt Lake City. The drawing was followed by musical numbers from each of the five busloads of students. Mrs. Howard asked for all present to share in a moment of understanding when the final number was pre-sented by the local group as they all joined hands and sang, 4No Man Is An Island." This song seemed to crystallize and capsule the entire scope and meaning of the AFS program and was echoed ., in each heart. Much thanks for the success of the stop-ov- er trip of the students goes to the many homes who offered hospitality to the travelers, the Salt Lake and Sugar House Kiwanis Clubs, together with the Kiwanis Key Clubs of the various high schools, and to Mr. Charles A. Boynton, Jr. who donated the use of the Greyline buses for their transportation while in Salt Lake City. Earl J. Glade New C ofC Secy. Mayor Earl J.

Mrs. Howard is president of the AFS for the area and Mr. Wicks is regional director of the Foreign Exchange. The AFS is a tremendously far-reach- ing program that realizes that the problems of to-morrow rest upon the youth of today, and that promoting under-standing between the young people of the world now will result in closer understanding and mutual acceptance between nations in years to come.

The Challenge of Leadership SUGAR HOUSE JAYCEES No doubt you recognize the need in today's America for strong leadership. This is not'a need for one strong man as for thousands leading the small groups which mike our nation's will. Our need is not so much for knowledge of where to go as it is for the courage to choose the right. We see here and there one or two lone prophets who stand against the tide, but as has always been the case, they are ridiculed and ignored. And America rushes madly along the easy road, perhaps to destruction. Tnis is not a job for the wisdom of age but rather for the courage and conviction of youth. Would you choose to be such a leader? The purpose of the Junior Chamber of Commerce is to train young men for leader-ship, whether it be in business, social or political activities. Like any training, this requires time and effort. But the effort spent among your friends who are seeking the same growth can be pleasant and rewarding. If you want it, here is your chance to become an active Jaycee. You will share in personal growth and at the same time promote projects for the improvement of your community and nation. Anyone interested in joining the Sugar House Junior Chamber of Commerce may contact Joseph L. Mills, HU 4-08- 82, membership chairman for the Sugar HouseJaycees. |
