0 Glide Teacher Back From Tour Gene Rosaschi, journalism and geography instructor at Glide High School, recently returned from a European tour. Seventeen coun tries were visited in the 73-day trip, from the coast of Portugal to the Brandenburg Gates of Berlin and from Scandinavia to Italy. Departing from Chicago by Air France jet, Paris was the first atop. Along with the usual sight seeing in Paris, Rosaschi witness ed a student demonstration at the close o the school term, when the jubilant students overturned and tore apart buses and cars. From Paris, a short trip to Northern France was made. From France to the plains of Spain, when the touring instructor returned after the first day of sightseeing, tired and hungry, he learned that dinner in the homes or restaurants was not served un til 10 p.m. He was astounded when the charge of a shoe-shine was only six ana one nau cents American money. Rosaschi said, "Although Spain's economy is low, a gaiety and contentment prevail through out the country of dancing gypsies and olive trees. Progress was noted in the many dams and irri gation projects being built." Then on to Portugal, where the Phoe nician influences are still preva lent in the fishing fleets of Naz are. Rosaschi then traveled back through Southern France and the beautiful Riviera where he found prices (to the American standards) extremely low for this famed Euro pean tourist spa. Then on to Luc ca, Italy, (near Pisa) to visit his maternal relatives, the Natale Wancssini family. Here in the country side of Italy, the family is still the center of all activity. Jlothcr and father and all their children (even after marriage) live in the second and third floors of the stone house. As each off spring marries, a new room is added to the home. The first floor is reserved for the livestock, pigs, cows, chickens, ducks and dogs. The Mancssini farm is very small, only two acres, but each of the sons has a separate job apart from the farm. One is a butcher, two are mechanics and two are carpenters. Uter sight-seeing in Rome, Flor- e, Venice and Milan, Italy, Ro saschi traveled- to Novarra, Italy, to visit his paternal relatives, the Guiseppe Rosaschi family, where he found living conditions quite different from his parents' home in Portland. His uncle operated a club for railroad employees and each member o the family was expected to help in the work of managing club operations. Crossing Switzerland and Aus tria, Germany was the high point of the trip. Rosaschi said "It was almost unbelievable to see the automobile and pedestrian traffic in West Berlin; the stores filled with shoppers like the Christmas season in the United States. It took me 20 minutes to get to a counter in a department store to Duy a package of razor blades West Berlin is a model city with progressiveness visible at every street corner. Rosaschi took a West Berlin sightseeing bus into East Berlin. The passengers' pass ports were carefully checked at the Border by East Berlin police The bus was not permitted to stop except for a 15-minute coffee break. He skipped the coffee to take a quick look at the stores. Here the stores were practically void of merchandise and no cus tomers; street traffic was limited to a few street cars without pas sengers. "In fact," he said, "East Berlin is still a living monument of World War II, with few build ings repaired." The gloom of the past war is evident at the cross roads," he continued, "However, one street, Stalin Ave. is a show ease the Communists have prepar ed to show the tourists. It was pa thetic to see the contrasts between the two Berlins." From Germany, Rosaschi tour ed Denmark, Norway, Holland, Sweden and England, visiting the many places of interest. He return ed from London by plane via the Polar route, non-stop from London to Seattle, Wash. The Glide High School instructor took 432 colored slides which he will edit and present to his classes in brief lectures.
