Furniture designs
win national prizes
University students won awards for the first time
since 1974 at the biannual International Wood
working Fair held in Louisville. Kentucky
September 10-14.
The exposition, primarily tor commercial
entries, also hosted a section for student compe
tition in which interior architecture majors
Michael McDonald and Martha Clarkson entered
their designs.
McDonald's entry of a black leather lounge
chair pulled two first place awards The $500 prize
money from both Best of Show and Upholstered
Furniture categories helps pay for the chair which
cost about $750, estimates McDonald
Clarkson says she may have had an advantage
in the show because the theme of the show was
“Small Living in the Eighties. ” Her compact,
two-drawered game table with an inlaid tile
checkerboard top drew the first prize, also worth
$500, for the Occassional Furniture category
Participation in the fair was optional, but to
enter the students had to design and manufacture
their entries for the contest in a successive
three-term class The entrants were also required
to submit a series of plans, sketches and
drawings prior to the actual competition

China census shows
1 billion — more or less
PEKING (AP) — China announced Wednesday
it has more than 1 billion people, counted by 5.1
million census takers who roamed everywhere
from Shanghai's teeming streets to the outer
reaches of Tibet for four months
First results of the census, announced by the
official Xinhua News Agency, also showed the
world's most populous nation has grown since
the last head-count in 1964 by 313 million people
— about 86 million more than the entire U S
population
The Communist government said the mainland
population is 1.008,175.288. and that the
population of Taiwan, Hong Kong and the Por
tuguese colony of Macao was 23,707, 223, for a
total of 1.031 882,511
China regards Taiwan as a renegade province
controlled by the rival Nationalists, who fled the
mainland after the Communist civil-war victory in
1949 The government also considers Hong Kong
and Macao to be part of China
No other country has a population approaching
1 billion India, the world s second most populous
nation, has an estimated 700 million residents
Foreign experts said the figures indicate China
is making progress in birth control, and that
population growth currently is 1 4 percent a year
The stated objective of China's top leader Deng
Xiaoping is to reach zero-population growth
