University Unveils New Study Plan For Summer Study in Great Britain
Institute of World Affairs Takes Stock of West s Ties
II is an illusion (hat nations can get rich by the poverty of others. USC's 37th annual Institute of World Affairs heard last night from the president of the world's largest exporter of aluminum into international trade.
The major division in the world is between the underdeveloped and developed countries rather than between East and West. said Nathanael V. Davis, cf Aluminium Ltd. of Canada, ouotinq the president of Guinea ;n Africa.
‘ The increasing gap between the living standards of the
time in world development that which is not creative must eventually wither away.

the poor underdeveloped countries is a serious weakness in the present world situation and one which Russia fully intends to exploit to its advantage,” Davis said.
Free Trade Needed
“The free world economic system must operate at its utmost efficiency if its is to combat the serious challenge of the Soviet Union. Protectionism seeks to di\ert and stifle trade, not to

Predicts Future “This excellent record of freshman and junior varsity speakers predicts a strong future in forensics for USC,” said Dr. James H. McBath, USC director of forensics.
Need New Markets
After the major nations put money into Latin America, Africa and Asia to industrialize them, the developing countries will need markets for their products. Davis said.
“If the less developed nations conclude that we are deliberately stifling their ambitions for a higher standard of living, we j shall lose them and their great potential markets to the economic system which is out to replace that of the free world.
“If action is not forthcoming soon, indastrial developments in Africa which are important to the free world will be achieved on Soviet terms and with Communist participation, resulting in a loss to the West of valuable natural resources and a future diversion of trade to a system antagonistic to the free nations of the world.”
Communists Spread
Communism has taken over since 1945 five times the territory that Hitler’s armies did in World War II and captured 800 million persons, the world’s total population in 1775, wras the comment of a U.S. Air Force officer earlier in the day.
"We are faced with a combined political and military threat so sinister that it is difficult to believe, much less comprehend.
We must accept w’ith courage that the solution to the threat to our existence in this terrible period is not yet available to us,” said Lt. Col. Wesley W. Posvsr, professor of political science at the Air Force Academy, Colorado Springs.

Select Students To Pioneer Idea
By NIT A BISS Daily Trojan Managing Editor
Thirty hand-picked USC students will be attending summer classes in 1961 at England's Cambridge University as approval of a long-pending administrative plan was announced yesterday.
Dr. Tracy E. Strevey, vice president of academic affairs, announced that the plan permits “well-qualified, mature” students to participate, as a group, in Cambridge's “Vacation Course for Foreign Students.”
Students will begin classes at Cambridge on July 12 and will finish on Aug. 9. They can choose from three seminar courses and a lecture course and will be given full credit for their summer work by USC.
Seminar courses deal with British institutions, international relations ("Britain and the World Today”) and English literature. The lecture course is entitled “Modern Britain: Its Literature and Institutions.”
1 These courses are given during Cambridge's long vaca-tion period and are taught by Cambridge faculty members. ¡¡L	Students from many European countries will attend
classes with the USC group, giving USC students an opportunity to become acquainted with students of other nationalities.
CAMBRIDGE BECKONS — Basking in the bright English summer sun, the campus of Cambridge University will host 30 hand-picked USC students in a special "Vaca-
2Lr*r_ l
tion Course for Foreign Students" in 1961. The classes, which will be full USC credit, will include three seminars and a lecture course dealing with English subjects.

Senate meeting at 6:30 in 301 SU.
The election code, which is sponsored by Bob Kendall, social studies senator, is a revised edition of a similar bill that was passed by the Senate but vetoed by the Executive Cabinet.
The immediate concern of the bill is to govern the coming election. Its body includes an outline for for the election procedure and campaign regulations regarding finance.
Board of Inquiry
The proposed bill will create a Board of Inquiry for the elections. This board will hear campaign complaints and judge them. It will also have the power to disqualify any person from the election.
The ASSC election code would do away with mandatory registration before voting. The aulhors of the bill feci that registration is not necessary in
fult to follow, too complicated to be efficient and an unnecessary financial burden on the
ASSC.
Two bills have been brought
Sun Movie To Screen
*'Our Mr. Sun.” a film produced by the Bell Telephone Co. and featuring Dr. Frank Baxter in the leading role, will be shown in 133 FH, today at 9 a.m.
Dr. Gibson Reeves obtained the film from the telephone company to show' to his classes in physical science. However, other interested students may attend.

USC participants will live as part of the Cambridge program. Weekend excursions are planned by the university to take students to such historic sites as Stratford-on Avon, Shakespeare's birthplace.
Due to housing conditions at Cambridge, Dr. Strevey reported that no more than 10 women will be able to participate in the program.
Men will be housed at Trinity Hall, while women will reside in one or two of the women’s colleges. Tutors will be available in the colleges to assist students with their work.
Dr. Strevey explained that the cost for the program has not yet been ascertained, but the month at Cambridge will probably cost about 75 pounds or approximately $210 in American money.
Students will arrange and pay their own transportation and are free to travel on their own or with a tour before or after the summer session.
“This type of opportunity—which combines an intensive study program with foreign travel—is tremendously important to our students,” Dr. Strevey said.
To date, USC is the only American university participating as a whole in the Cambridge program.
The possibility of USC participating in such a program was first explored last summer when President Norman Topping traveled abroad and investigated the opportunity for foreign study.
Cambridge, 750 years old, is located in Cambridgeshire, just 56 miles northeast of London. It has been described as “perhaps the only true university town in England.” Details concerning selection of students, cost and travel will be announced at a later date.______________
