Point Hope, a village above the
Arctic circle on the Alaskan pen
insula.
Foint Hope residents still live
i in the sod and whale bone igloos
i of their ancestors. They pursue
! ant lent methods of whale and
caribou hunting. Yet they have
20 modern tape recorders in a
| -Ity of fewer than 250 popu
lation.
The reason for this is that their
'anguage is unwritten, so they
| send letters by recording what
they have to say and mailing
| the tape.
LARSEN SAYS we are get
ting close to knowing the origin
j of the Eskimo culture. He thinks
the answer likely lies in Alaska.

Cloutier Awaits Participation
In African Diplomacy Program
One year ago this week at a
youth seminar in Washington,
D.C., Jim Cloutier first, learned
about Operation Crossroads Af
riea.
AT THK tim< he was attend
ing the Christian Citizenship
Seminar in Washington and New
York which analyzed the "Emerg
ing African Nations and their
impact on the U.S. and U.N. For
j eign policy.
While at the conference, Clou
11 ier, a senior in ait education
and AHT/O vice president, heard
a speech by the Rev. James H.
| Robinson, OCA director.
Cloutier returned filled with
enthusiasm for the person-to-per
son diplomacy program which
sends two hundred American stu
: dents to Africa each summer
i to work at the village level.
THIS WEEK Cloutier received
notification that he has been se
lected to participate in the over
seas operation this summer.
Discussing his decision to ap
ply to work at the village level
in Africa Cloutier said, "I came
back from the African seminar
i with much interest in the pro
; gram."
CMHJTIKR, who is student
! chairman of the Faculty-Student
Peace <?orps Committee, is not
| certain yet just where he will
' be assigned.
"My first choice was Uganda
with Tanganyika and Kenya as
! second choices,” he said
"We will be working at the vil
lage level on community proj
' ects. We may be doing anything
from building a road, or to tcach
j ing English.”
A POREItiN student at the
j University fiom Uganda is help
ing Cloutier Swahili presently.
"I hope to teach English with
1 visual circles to students in one
West African nations. I believe
it will facilitate a more meaning
ful understanding of English if I
draw pictures as I teach,” he
said.
On June 19 he will fly to New

York to biffin four days orienta
tion and briefings with university
specialists on African area stud
ies, experts from African, Euro
pean, and United States govern
ment.
I’AKT OF THE time will be
devoted to building groups rela
tionships and developing work
camp techniques.
"The program will be divided
into three periods,” Cloutier said.
The first consists of meetings
with government officials, institu
tion heads, and students in the
country.
“This will give us a better
idea of the governments and cul
tural structure.”
THE SECOND and most signi
ficant of the three periods will
he the actual project.
following the project the
group will travel around the west
African country and visit neigh
boring nations.
The summer experience termin
ates with a three-day stopover
in Europe before returning to the
United States.
Cloutier said the program is
viitually unknown in the Pa
cific Northwest although it is
better known in California as the
first American school to partici
pate was Occidental college.
ItOBINSON', a New York Ne
gro minister initiated the pro
gram in 1958.
The program also had its trial
run in 1958 when 60 students
journeyed to five African coun
tries:.
A typical project wa« in Ghana
where the students started to
build a two-room school house,
but as a result of village enthu
siasm expanded to a seven-room
school.
•IOI UNALIHT Marquis Childs
has called the young people who
participate in the person-to-per
son diplomatic adventure, "the
image changers.”
Says Childs "Crossroads Afri
ca is a wholly voluntary organi
zation. It illustrates one of the
greatest advantages of a free so
ciety which, in contrast to a dic
tatorship, people themselvo may
take the initiative and do what
government could or would not
do.
THE PROGRAM ope rates with
out the fanfare which allegedly
accompanies the Peace Corps. It
was called "modern American pi
oneering and program that be
hes the moral disengagement
with which American youth is so
frequently, glibly and so unfair
ly charged by the New York
Times.
Among national leaders who
have lent their prestige to the
program are honorai-y co-chair
men Chester Bowles, former Un
dersecretary of State and pres
ently presidential advisor on Af
rican Asian and Latin American
Affairs, and Supreme Court Jus
tic-' William O. Douglas.
