Profit in Giving
If looks were the only cri
terion. Waldo would win the
current campus beauty con
test hands down.
The very fact that he is en
tered. along with the coin
count contests, car wash, and
auction, add a touch of whim
sey to the WSSF drive that
merits applause.
Even without the fun,-how
ever, the drive w oul d be
worthwhile.
Funds collected here will go
to Greece, Syria, India, Bur
ma, Pakistan, Japan, Indone
sia and Korea. They will buy
textbooks, supply tuition, pay
for laboratory equipment, hos
pital and surgical equipment,
CARE packages, and hostel
accommodations.
Students at Oregon com
plain about living in dorms,
while students in Pakistan put
up their own bamboo huts on
any available piece of ground,
and stay there until they are
forced to move away, which is
often.
Here complaints about the
food are standard topics of
conversation. In other parts of
the world, students are search
ing for education while fight
ing off TB, malaria, and dys
entery caused by famine.
If this sounds like a soli
s t o r y, it should be remem
bered that the WSSF drive is
more than a plea for the un
derprivileged. There is a profit
for the giver, too, although it
depends on a rather idealistic
assumption.
As the Christian Science
Monitor puts it, the drive
should enlist the support of all
those who hold that education
is the most potent weapon in
the armory of freedom.
