Miss Genevieve Poole of Salem,
who visited relatives here during the
past weekend and attended the bridal
shower of her cousin, Mrs. Dick

evening, is a teacher at the State

in Europe this summer as a mem
ber of the Oregon College of Educa
tion’s study tour: “Geography and
Related Cultures of the British Isles
and Scandinavia."
Miss Poole is a graduate of OCE
and began teaching in 1953. Since
that time she has done considerable

and Mexico, and last summer attend
ed the University of Hawaii. Sh? is

liam Poole of Aumsville and the niece

While the study group is in Nor

tion with the “International Confer
ence for Instruction of Blind Youth,"
i being held in Oslo.
This year’s OCE study tour will

er the leadership of Professor Charles
J. Noxon of the Social Science de
partment. According to Professor

money, and only one way to make it.
