AMANT United Press International Los Angeics - (UPll - If you're a tourist from a for eign land and you'd like to have a free meal with a fam ily in the Southern California wonderland. a hospitable chap named Donn Gift can book you - no strings attach ed. Donn with his-improbable last name of Gift has set up an organization called Los Angeles - at - home and he's got a list of at least 250 South ern Californians who would like to entertain for an eve ning persons from other coun tries. ' Gitt got the idea for his group back in 1945 when he made a trip to Denmark and was entertained in a program called "Meet the Danes." This program was sponsored by the Danish government. Other nations such as Swe den, the Netherlands and Nor way do the same thing. Gift came home and tried to enlist prestigious organiza tions in sponsoring a similar program here but he had no luck. So last October he launch ed one on his own. And with no capital to speak of he has made a good start. Gift is a radio announcer, engineer and publicist by pro fession and he has drummed up interest in his project among air lines and travel agencies. He has received compli ments and moral support , from the Los Angeles county j board of supervisors. Mayor j Samuel Yorty and numerous other official groups and in dividuals. "The basic idea of my pro gram," he said, "is to enable the average tourist to meet an American family and learn how we live and think. This will in a small way make for better understand ing among nations. The only way to get to know a country is to know the people who live in it." Gift has chosen as the mot to of his fledgling organiza tion the Spanish legend: "Mi Casa es su Casa" which means "My house is your house." Gift has had a good re sponse to his efforts. "People want to be friendly," he said, "and they like to see foreign ers." In the few cases he has handled to date, correspond ence has been started among the principals and one family told him they made a lasting friendship. There's no sweat in this deal, as Gift explains it. You entertain the foreign family for one evening and you don't pledge yourself to spend any great amount of money. It's strictly a friendly affair and the foreigners and the Southern California hosts seem to enjoy themselves.
