Sig Rotarians visit
BY JASON AINSLIE
The Goderich Rotary
Club recently hosted a
team of six British
Rotarians traveling
throughout District 633 in
a program called the
Group Study Exchange.
The basic plan of the
exchange is to expose the
visiting team members to
as many people as
possible and, in doing so,
foil the host district to
learn about the visiting
team's ways of life as
well. The tour began May
2 and will continue
through to June 13.
•
In this time the group
will travel to Flint,
Lansing, Detroit and
other points on the
American side of the the
District as well as Lon-
don, Goderich and as far
north - as Manitoulin
Island on the Canadian
• shoreline. Although
District 633 has no federal
of provincial capitals, it
has the advantage of
being a truly in-
• ternational area, stret-
ching . both the, United
States and Canada.
This lends the English
visitors the opportunity to
compare the educational
systems, judicial
systems, welfare
agencies and -govern-
ments of the two coun-
tries with those of their
•
own. They will also have
the opportunity to ob-
serve Health programs,
Social Services,
-Agriculture, Commerce,
Industry, Research and
Development, Religion
and Culture, Recreation,
Sports and Amusements.
As the group travels
from place to place, they
individually address each
respective Rotary Club.
Each man has his own
field of interest and each
is as varied as the man
himself.

28 year old husband and
father who lives in Alton,
