The center was used primarily for dances on Friday nigljt. That function was turned over to t h e high school. Ramberg said. He re ported that the Youth Center com mittee had agreed to work with school authorities to stage the dances and other youth activities. Canter Formed The center was a project spear headed by Mrs. Charles Brown, who has moved from the city. She launched the project to start a youth center about two years ago. Largely through her efforts, an or ganization was formed and the youth center was set up in a for mer bowling alley on Northeast Rose about a year and a- half ago. However, she left recently and when the announcement of her im pending departure was made, the center had begun to totter, ap parently from lack of interest. One student at KoseDurg High, Wendy Bingham, blamed the fail ure on what she called "lack of aaiiii-siuneru cooperation. L.-U- - - .

N. general assembly de bate staged by the Roseburg High international Relations League last Tuesday at the hig school. At the meeting each member ot the club represented one country. There was an equal number of rep resentatives from communist na tions and western nations with only one neutrlists nation represented. All the members followed the po licies of the countries they repre sented in the debate. The debate itself ran according to the proced ure used in the real U. N. The discussion started with bloc meetings where the communist and western nations defined their respective policies and drew up resolutions. Two resolutions were made. The communist bloc pro posed that Algeria be liberated from French rule and France pro tested in a resolution stating that Algeria was part of France and not under the jurisdiction of the U. N. The scene changed to a U.N. committee meeting, on the Alger ian program. The committee was to submit one of the two resolu tions to the general assembly. After much discussion it submit ted the Communist resolution for Algerian liberation. But the reso lution fell short of the two-thirds majority vote in the general as sembly. The main purpose of the meet ing was to prepare for a state wide model U. N. conference. In this conference the Roseburg 1RL will represent the Ukraine. Learn ing about the U. N. and studying the Ukraine are the principal proj ects of the club this year. RHS Photography Club Schedules Two Contests Two contests are under way (or the Roseburg Senior High photo club.
