SOCIETY LOY HARSIN, Editor Phone 676-5885 Soroptimist Club Speaker Reports On Fulbrignt Tour Experiences of travel and study in Europe under a Ful brignt scholarship were told by Mrs. Larry Lindsay, Lexington, when she spoke to members and guests of the Heppner Soropti mist club at its luncheon meet ing last Thursday noon. Her talk was illustrated with colored slides of countries she visited during the year, September, 1961, to September, 1962. Mrs. Lindsav was awnmnan ied to the meeting by her mother, Mrs. Albert E. Remily of Port land, and was introdureH hv Mrs Jim Thomson, co-chairman of the program committee. After getting her degree from tne university of Portland, Mrs Lindsay was awarded the schol arship for 10 months of ad vanced study in chemistry at the university or cologne in Germ any. She was one of several py change students who made the 11-day voyage across the At lantic on the ship, M. S. Berlin. Her nrst month was spent liv ing in the private home nf a German family, learning the uerman language and customs. Her "father" was a finance min ister of the countrv. Contrasts in styles of architecture were of particular interest to the speaker. Very evident were contrasts be tween the old and new, modern structures built to replace those destroyed during war years, and many combining the two when parts were rebuilt. "Many of the beautiful stain ed windows were taken out of cathedrals to preserve them from bombings," she said, "and allied planes tried very hard to keep from destroying the art treasures and cathedrals." She spoke of the advantages and extra priv ileges given students in social and educational programs in Germany, encouraging them to iurtner ineir education. She was one of 40 students who spent a Christmas vacation in Austria enjoying the winter sports near the scene of where this year's Winter Olympics were held. She discussed contrasts be tween east and west Berlin which she visited in March and April, vacation months at the university. Very impressing were the many soldier guards, the crudeness of the Berlin wall. with broken glass embedded in u, Daroea wire ana railroad ties extending: alons it. and the lack of any restoration to bombed buildings, windows and walls boarded and much anti-propaganda alone its division. Tour ists are discouraged in trying for entrance into the east sec tor by length of "red tape" and hours of waiting at each check point. Freedom and truth were impressed on West Berliners through Voice of America broad casts, now closed, the speaker regretfully pointed out. Mrs. Lindsay has been a strong supporter of the National Ful- bright scholarship program, and encourages qualitied col 1 e g e graauates to apply whenever possiDie. Other guests of the club were Mrs. Gordon Hutchens and Mrs. Ora Evans. Vows Exchanged In Milwaukie Church KINZUA In a single ring ceremony read by Rev. Harvey J.
