Students Give Money To Put
2 Japanese through School
By DICK RICHARDSON
Emerald Feature Editor
The best way to learn about
the culture of another country is
to meet directly with the people
of that country.
Students in Paul S. Dull’s Far
East in Modern Times class have
this opportunity of learning about
Japan.
IN 1955 DULL and the stu
dents in his Far East class estab
lished the O rego n-Okayama
Friendship Fund to put a Japan
ese girl through medical school.
With money given by the stu
dents Miss Junko Akiyama was
able to attend four years of medi
cal school at Okayama University
in Okayama, Japan, and become
a doctor.
The project was discontinued
in 1959 when Dull, professor of
history, was out of school, but
was started again last year. The
government of the prefecture of
Okayama could not find a second
girl to put through medical
school, however, so a boy was
chosen instead.
Harpham Cup Will
Be Given At Sing
The Josephine Evans Harpham
Silver Cup Award will be award
ed at the All-Campus Sing Junior
W eekend, to the living organiza
tion having shown the greatest
interest in the house library pro
gram and recreational reading.
Organizations are judged in the
number, qaulity and variety of
books the students read, as well
as the improvement of reading
and house GPAs. House librarians
have been responsible for a rec
ord of the organization's progress.
Mrs. Harphan. a resident of Eu
gene, established the award in
1948 to stimulate the develop
ment of student's reading habits.
The award, in the shape of an
open silver book mounted on a
wooden standard, was won by Dy
ment hall last year: Dyment was
then a women’s dormitory. In
subsequent years Rebec House
has received tlje award four times
and Tri-Delt three times.
IN A FEW weeks the money
given by students this year will
be sent to Fumio Meguro. the boy
chosen last year and now in his
first year of medical school, to
pay next year's costs.
Fumio has corresponded with
Dull at the University, and stu
dents interested in Japan may
correspond with Fumio. Dull said
several sororities have corres
ponded with Miss Akiyama.
The friendship fund was started
for two reasons, Dull said. "One
is naturally philanthropic and
the other is that the U.S. can
stand more friends in the world.
"The program has done much
to make the Japanese friendly to
Americans,” he said, "and has
also benefited Oregon students. It
gives them a chance to find out
first-hand about Japanese cul
ture.”
THE PREFECTURE of Okaya
ma was chosen for the project,
Dull said, because he has lived
there and knows the government
officials and because it represents
one of the few vestiges left of
• old" Japan. Okayama is located
on the main island of Honshu 90
miles south of Kobe.

Dull said that there has been
more response to the friendship
fund this year than in previous
years. He said fraternities, sorori
ties, cooperatives, dormitories and
some individuals have contribut
ed.
Contributions are 100 percent
voluntary. Dull stressed.
ALL THAT is needed to put
Fumio through one year of medi
cal school is $140, which pays for
his tuition, books, and fees.
Dull said that any money col
lected over the $140 will either be
used to set up a fund in Japan
to be used to pay next year’s
costs, or will be used to exchange
Christmas gifts with’Japanese or-;
phans. In previous years Dull and
his students have also exchanged
gifts with orphans.
In 1959 Dull and his family
went to Japan and he received
from the Okayama government a
citation for laudable achievement
which he accepted in the name of
his students who could not be
present.
