utive year at the University
of Oregon.
The program, from June 9
lo August 16, will include a
week's orientation on the uni

ternship at a public institu
tion in the Northwest, and a
final week back on campus

gram, with Dr. Norman D.
Sundberg, associate profes
sor of psychology, as associate
director. The course will be
staffed by university faculty
members and visiting profes

agencies.
The coure was first held
under WICHE sponsorship in
1960. Next summer similar
courses also are planned at
the University of Colorado,
the University of the Pacific,
and San Diego State college.
The course is designed to
acquaint undergraduate stu
dents or those who will be
graduating in June with work

tardation, and juvenile and
adult rehabilitation through
actual on-the-job experience
combined with academic work
and to recruit particularly

these fields.

Students will be assigned
lo various cooperating men
tal hospitals, homes for the
retarded, and correctional in
stitutions in Oregon, Wash
ington, and Idaho during the
first week of the course. The
interns will have opportuni
ties to observe activities re
lated to cottage and ward
life, recreation, occupational
therapy, psychology, social
work, research, and other dis
ciplines. Any undergraduate who
has completed his first year
at a Western college or uni
versity may apply. There
may also be room in the
course for a few students from
Eastern colleges, according to
Bisno. Preference will be giv
en to students with high scho
lastic ability and potential ca
pacity for graduate work.
The students will earn six
credit hours in either sociolo
gy or psychology and a sti
pened of approximately $970.
Cost to the student will be
$75 for tuition, plus room,
board, and transportation.
Last year's course at the
university enrolled 52 stu
dents from 27 different col
leges. Between 50 and 60 stu
dents will be selected for the
1963 course.
and still under questioning
have told police they were
plotting to kill both Presi
dent Charles de Gaulle and
Premier Georges Pompidou.
Police believe that two
spectacular bank robberies in
Paris and the provincial town
of Beanue recently, netting a
total haul estimated at 2,
500,000 francs ($500, 0 0 0)
staged by OAS gangs.
Police also believe the pro
fessional killer who shot mer
chant banker Henri LaFond
lo death on Aug. 22 last
suburban Neuilly may have
been an OAS terrorist.
Warnings Received
Several leading French
bankers recently have receiv
ed OAS warnings that they
would be killed unless they
handed over big sums to the
terrorists. Police say LaFond
may have been killed as a
"warning" to other financiers
after he refused to go along
with the shakedown.
The most serious OAS
threat in the eyes of French
security authorities remains
that to de Gaulle's life.
Five members of the 14 -man
gang that tried to mach
incgun de Gaulle and his wife
to death on Aaug. 22 last
year still are on the run.
Among them is Georges ("The
Limp") Watin, a desperado
who has become the most
wanted man in France today.
The recent kindnaplng in
Munich of renegade former
Col. Antoinc Argoud, one of
the four top OAS chiefs, has
not seriously eased the threat
to de Gaulle's life, French po
lice believe.
Figurehead Leader in Exile
Theoretically, Argoud was
boss for France itself of the
OAS and the so-called "Na
tional Resistance Council,"
whose figurehead leader is
self-exiled former Premier
Georges Bidault.
But French security author
ities regarded Argoud as
more of a dreamer thai-, a man
of action. Two of his aides,
former Army epptians Rene
Sergent and Jean Curutchet,
still are at large.
The la?t two are regarded
as the real terrorist bosses in
France at the moment. As
long as Sergent, Curutchet
and Watin remain free,
French security authorities
see a contlnous threat to de
Gaulle's life.
Another of the OAS "lost
soldiers" believpd on the run
in France ir former Col.
Charles Chalcau-Jobert. He
also is regarded as a des. -ado
who would stop at noth
ing to kill de Gaulle and over
throw the Fifth Republic.
Break Seen "
But Chateau-Jobert appears
to have broken with other
OAS leaders and started an
anti -Gaullist organization of
his own under the name of
"Counter - Revolutionary
Movement" (MCR).

French officials consiuer
that the OAS anJ its political
organ the so-called "National
Resistance Council" have been
weakened gravely by losses
in the past year.
Aims Are Clear
Former Generals Raol Sa
lan and Ermund Jouhaud are
serving life prison sentences.
Argoud is behind bars. The
group of OAS leaders which
sought refuge in Spain has
been broken up and some of
its members shipped off to
South America.
Police estimate that the to
tal number of active OAS ter
rorists in France today prob
ably is not more than a few
hundred and the number of
symphathizers is not more
than a few tens of thousands.
But the terriorist's aims are
clear.
They believe that if they
succeeded in killing de Gaulle
the country would be plunged
into chaos and civil 'rife in
which the army would be
forced to intervene.
They believe there still is
sufficient below the surface
support for the OAS in the
armed forces to ensure a new
regime sympathetic to them.
