The regular communion ser

in Ohio!
Once in Europe, the girls will
scatter in four directions to
carry out a unique, -two-month
education project started three
yeas ago by Lake Erie college in
Painesville. Ohio.
. One girl will study baroque
organs and organ music in Goet
tingen, Germany. Another will
investigate housing projects in
Copenhagen, Denmark.
"We write a thesis on our
project and we must keep a
diary of our impressions of the
things we see," Barbara Ledich,
20, explained. "We aren't graded
on them. We only pass or we
fail. If we fail it's a loss of 10
credits and that is disastrous."
Entire Junior Class
Miss Ledrich, an elementary
education . major from Cincin
nati, and the other girls who
sailed today on the liner Queen
Elizabeth represent the entire
junior class of the private girls'
college. The trip is included as
part of the tuition for the four
year students.
"Most of us try to pck a, proj
ect that we couldn't study in a
library here," she said. She is
the"one who picked Copenhagen
housing projects.
"I understand they have elim
inated slums with their proj
ects," Miss Ledrich said seri
ously. "I decided to pick this in
stead of something directly con
nected with my major, elemen
tary education, because it should
broaden my interests."
Businesslike Attitude
The girls all reflect the busi
nesslike attitude toward the trip
that Miss Ledrich expressed.
Usually they end their stay with
a well-chaperoned fling in Paris
or a trip to Italy, but most of the
two months is spent working on
the projects they . picked and
learning how the people live by
boarding with a local family.
Sixteen will go to Copenhag
en, nine to Trogen, Switzerland,
17 to Grenoble, France, and
three to Goettingen, Germany.
In each city the head of the lo
cal university is the head of the
Erie College committee super
vising the girls.
They, already have studed the
language of the country to which
they plan to travel, except the
Copenhagen visitors, since the
college gives no Danish language
course. '.
Each girl lives with a family
that represents approximately
the same income level as her
own family back home. .
Diaries from past years show
that two things amaze the girls
the most about their midwinter
term abroad.
"The lack of central heating
and the late dinner hours,' a
college official said. "And most
of the girls come back convinced
they don't know enough about
their own country. They're ask
ed so many questions by the peo
ple they meet oyer there."
Party Tonight
Medford Dprcas society will
hold a revelation party for secret
pals at the home of Mrs. E, F.
Archer, 3950 Jacksonville high
way,' tonight - at 7:30 o'clock.
Games will be followed by re
