Following dinner Miss Dor othy Wilson introduced Don Kondo of Japan and Gillian Du Croz of England foreign exchange students and De Ann Taylor of Medford who spent the past summer in West Germany under the auspices of the American Field Service. Don Konda compared the schools of Japan with those of the United States saying that in the high schools of Japan there is no choice of subjects. Students take four teen subjects, all academic. The daily schedule is differ ent. Students stay in the room and the teacher moves. Stu dents wear uniforms. The public schools are co educational, but not the priv ate schools, he said. In speaking of the schools of England, Gillian Du Croz said they were more like those of Japan. Up to the tenth grade students take ten com pulsary subjects. National ex aminations are given at the end of the twelth year. This system makes it difficult for a student to change his major. She compared the mothers in America with those of Eng land, saying that in England mothers are busy with family duties and do not belong to clubs as do American mothers. She said that British people have wrong impressions of Americans. They get these im pressions from the movies and American tourists. Both students said they were impressed with the size of the United States, and would always remember how kind and helpful the people have been. De Ann Taylor explained the American Field Service program. To participate a student must be a junior in good standing in his or her high school. She attended school in West Berlin. The school day was from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and she said the students in the family with which she lived spent about two hours a day on home work. Hostesses were Mrs. Fran ces Welletly, Mrs. Mae Rich ardson, Mrs. Gladys Sloan, Mrs. Precia Medley, Mrs. Ivah Murray and Mrs. Georgiana Beier. Kalsi?.:--;..; ..
