Study Club' Review Given Mrs. Harold S. Houston chose for reviewing, "The Shoes of the Fisherman", by Morris L. West, for a recent Wednesday Study club meeting. As a basis for the fictional novel, the author writes of what happens to a twentieth century man when he is crowned with the triple tiara and named Vicar of Christ, Vice-regent of the Almighty on this troubled planet. This situation is the point of departure for "The Shoes of the Fisherman" and the author has developed one of the most moving and challeng ing novels of recent times, the reviewer related. The book was published in August, 1962. The selected subject given bv Mrs. Jack Swem was an article in the American Association of University Women Journal, entitled, "Pathway to the Fu ture," by Jules Pagona, direc tor of the Professional and Tech nical Division of the Peace Corps Office of Public Affairs.

By Sharon uiipman Senior Girl Scout HOME City mm "And we strive to buy in dollars what all the world can not learn how to buy a way to peace. We are using the wrong coin. It isn't dollars, it Isn't bread alone, but the yeast of human understanding that we need." We find these words from "More Time Than Money", a new travel book by Heddy Kraemer. who planned to leave Medford here, quoted the passage from and she is absolutely sure that Mrs. Kraemer speaks and the rest of the world thinks and says of the united states because she has lived and traveled abroad for more than 20 years. Her husband, John, a geologist, lived and worked abroad for about 26 years. Mrs. K. bluntly says countries despise Americans. "They detest the English, only don t like Americans, they Kraemer believes this has come to be put in the position of having to be helped by a richer, stronger country, because this wrong wav. because we do lack ing" and because so many Americans living and traveling abroad are arrogant and unfriendly. This poor image of the United States has been built up by officials who act in a boorish and elers who can't be bothered to ask "how much is that in real money , who assume a conde scending manner to those of other nations and who look down on those who can't speak English. This dislike, even hatred, from those living in foreign countries States and accounts in some part for the demand to cut down on foreign aid. She believes the entire situation to be serious. , The Kraemers, who have been listening to Voice of America broadcasts for many years, say that the program is extremely poor. She reports that the broadcasts are made by men and women using a bored, condescending manner, that much ot tne material is unsuitable and badly presented. During World War II the Kraemers were living in Venezuela in a community with a number of other Americans and persons from various countries. Eventually almost everyone listened mainly to BBC broadcasts from England since they proved more reliable and more interesting than those from the United States, she said. What Mrs. Kraemer says is impressive. She gives every appearance of being an intelligent, well-educated woman. Part of her schooling was received at the Sorbonne in Paris and she speaks a number of languages. She is friendly and apparently "simpatico" a Spanish word which she says conveys more mean ing than the American sympathetic. And she is speaking from first-hand knowledge. We didn't get to hear Mrs. Kraemer when she spoke for AAUW. but Pal Pee covered the talk and in addition to the news story carried Thursday, contributed more interesting material for Potpourri, as follows. Mrs. Kraemer and her husband, John, spent 20 months tour ing the world by freighter and she has many tips for travelers. Since they visited so many varied countries and climates, the speaker said that they had taken the majority of their clothing with them. Typical of many travelers, Mrs. Kraemer admitted they had taken too much, and mentioned that persons should remember that "there are stores in other parts of the world." She encouraged travelers to take "drip dries" and reminded the audience that while the dress may seem the same to you, it isn't to others. She called a woman traveler and wore one She noted that a remote area which hadn t heard of American The speaker said that during never used the travel iron she had carried witn her. All of tne freighters provided electric irons, along with ironing boards and a few had washing machines. Since freighters with less than 100 persons aboard did not have doctors, she said that the captain or first officer treated minor ailments. This included pulling teeth and setting bones. On one freighter, the couple learned that the ship's emergncy kit con tained medicines labelled only with numbers, and the officer in charge had a book telling him treatment for a particular set While freighters do not have able aboard with most showing sengers are allowed the freedom of the bridge and may also learn of the operating procedure of radar and other instruments.

The traveler commented that many of the freighters carry deck passengers. This means they live, cook, eat and sleep on the main deck.

The low heeled walking shoe is out. These are some of the ins and outs of style currently reflected by the women who fill the New York show rooms of fashion manfacturers this time of the year.
