Wins trip to the UN we were joined by students from Kansas, Nebraska, New Jersey and New York, The study at the U.N., which was the purpose, and the highlight of the trip, was an interesting and memorable experience. We were given a tour of the General Assembly building, which gave us d chance to absorb some basic facts about the U.N, We attended briefings by members of the Secretariat on such topics as U,N.D.P., U.N.I.C.E.F., disarmament, population problems, and the "good offices" of the Secretary-General. The last does not refer to the rooms in which U. Thant does his work, but rather to his ability to use his position as Secretary-General to help solve disagreements between countries privately, On our last day at the U.N., we were briefed by delegates from the Israeli, U.A.R., U.S.S.R., atici U.S. missions. The Israeli and Arab speakers were especially' interesting and gave everyone a chance to appreciate both sides of the problem. The time in New York was by no means all work and no play. We attended a Broadway play. went shopping, visited the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty, toured Rockefeller Center, and spent an evening at Radio City, For the Ontario students, our • two weeks included much more. We travelled, to and from New York by bus and saw the sights of Ottawa, Montreal, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Gettysburg, 'Washington D.C, and Niagara Fails, not to mention all the countryside in between the cities, ' I had a wonderful time. I saw and learned pew things and Made many friends. For this, the Oddfellows and Rebekahs of Huron County are responsible, and I thank them for it, My only wish is that I never learn exactly what I was . breathing in from that New York smog. The knowledge would probably kill me, even if the pollution didn't!
