I*'or nearly a week In April
of 1961. the University will host
the 11th annual session of the
college Model United Nations of
the West. According to “81'* El
lingson, director of the Student
Union, “this session will be the
largest student conference to
meet on the University campus."
THIS, the largest and most
comprehensive of all model UN
sessions In the world, will draw
approximately 1000 students and
faculty advisors to the campus.
Each of the over 80 participat
ing schools, drawn from the Pa
cific Coast and western states,
will represent a member nation
of the UN. The students will act
as delegates to the various or
gans of the UN, and will repre
sent their "nation’s" position
within each of their bodies. To
most participants, this means a
year's preparation in special
classes, seminars, and individual
study before attending the con
ference. i
To the University it means pro
viding a complete secretariat for
the model UN and making all ar
7-angements and providing all
facilities.
This year's student secretary
genei-al, Paul Ward, graduate
student in political science, spent
six weeks this summer at the
UN headquarters in New York
City, gathering information and
materials for the conference.
Ward states, “l found a pro
found respect for the model UN
on the part of all who were ac
quainted with It. The Director
of Educational Activities in the
UN Office of Public Information
regarded the western MUN as
the 'model for all such student
endeavors throughout the
world.' ”
The UN is currently preparing
a handbook on how to host a
model session for students in for
eign countries, and has leaned
heavily on the western MUN as
the prime example of successful
conferences.
“This year should be no ex
ception,” stated Ward. The model
UN at the University will include
mock sessions of the Security
Council, the Economic and Social
Council, the Trusteeship Council,
five of the main committees of
the UN, the disarmament com
mission ar.d the sessions of the
General Assembly.

has been teaching at the Univer
sity for two years and has served

The new officers include Cap
tains Edward L. Zuver, William
R. Woodill and Lieutenant Caleb
A. Shreeve.
Captain Zuver graduated from
the U.S. Military Academy and
in 1951 served in Korea with the

the 11th Airborne Division in
Germany. He is married and has

cilities is filling the secretariat's
time.
