THURSDAY People of this area, last Thurs- day, had their first opportunity to give foreign students an ini- pression of the American way of life, and at the same time, tai*< to and learn the way of life in two other countries, when Anna- tra ,t Goeding of Mainburg, Ba varia. Germany, and Ivy Coffey, of New De’hi, India, were nre«- ent at Rotary luncheon and at the November meeting of local Parent-Teachers Association. Despite some language difficul ty. these young women succeeded remarkably in giving a com pa ri «on, how they, as exchange stu- dents were in this countiy to ob- serve and study the American methods not only of schools but government as well. Miss Goeding went to great length in explaining the handi caps facing the German scnools of today, in which she is teacher. She praised the American occu- pation forces in their effort to restore Germany, its schools, its way of life, and yet not act as conquerors. These forces are in- deed careful whom they rely on to lead in the restoration. Of the 500 teachers “screened” to sent to America, only 35 s< c- ceeded in passing the tests. Miss Coffey, wearing a native “sari,” less than five feet in height, won the admiration of everyone by her understanding of world affairs. She told of the difficulties facing her country in its frst years of independence, .of the language barriers, when about 30 of them hinder prog- ress. Religions are being over- come as barriers.

She signed her name many times in her native language tor the people present. After each had talked. Dr. Mil ler, professor at Southern Ore gon College of Education, where they are enrolled, called for any questions. Both young ladies had the floor longer in this part than during their previous talks. Both earnestly tried to answer every question fully, honestly, and to give the right picture to neople of America. Miss Goeding answered num erous questions about the Rus sians and Communism in Europe today. She told how her own family was forced to flee to the American zone, with only the clothes on their bodies. She told inasfar as she could how the dif ferent zones compared, always praising highly the way Ameri can forces were doing the job. Both young ladies were given invitations to return here when their time would not be limited to the program of the college. It | is likely that both will find time next spring to take that trip.
