Pie Toss Will Raise Money For Drive
By DICK P ATM AS
Despite a 100 percent greater donation from the fraternities and sororities on the row. Trojan Chest’s collections yesterday were running below average due to the lack of independent support and lack of collectors, Troy Chest chairman Bruce Blinn reported.
“Last week we collected $1200 from the button campaign and S800 of that was from the row.” said Bruce. I have been disappointed with the independent sales,” he added.
Pie in the Eye
Blinn said that yesterday’s collections were under the average partly because more collectors are needed. Anyone wishing to devote their time is urged to go to 215 SU at 9 or 10 a.m. today or tomorrow.
The pie throwing contest has been scheduled for tomorrow and Thursday at noon in front of the TEP house on 28th Street.

Continuous guidance for the youth of America, is essential for a successful life in the complexities of today's world, reports Dr. Emery Stoops, profes-! sor of education.
In his new book, “Principles and Practices in Guidance”, Dr. Stoops outlines five steps in the basic process of guidance. “\V e must first get information about the individual. Secondly we must ascertain the type of environmental opportunities the subject has available. We then formulate the information and help place the person in society. The last step is to determine the results.”
Dr. Stoops, who co-authored the book with Gunnar L. Wahl-quist. has had teaching experience in elementary, secondary, college and graduate school levels. He has written more than fifty articles and also worked on a number of books.
Latest Book
The final release of his latest book is the culmination of over seven years of work. At the present time he has another hook in the first stages of printing and it he available to the public sometime in early 1959.
“Only one-third of the high school students who are capable of attending college are doing so. The root of the trouble can
lie traced back to improper guidance. That is the type of situation lhat we must correct, the professor went on to say.
Start Now He explains that a guidance program should be started in the elementary schools, and not wait for high school or even college. “One hundred years ago the !students did not have the large number of subjects to choose from. Then it was take what they gave you or you were out of school. Rut now. there are thousands of courses available and the students need to be guided through carefully,” he said.
He pointed out that it was not a question of one or two years of help, hut a task that must be carried out for the duration of a child's schooling. Dr. Stoops also feels that there should be greater effort in the selection of the advisors.
Find People “We must find people who have a strong desire for the work and then train them. Too often the counselors are school teachers who are told that this year one will he an advisor and then next year some one else will take the post.”
His hook. "Principles and Practices in Guidance”, is on sale in the university bookstore for $5.50.

WANTED: FRIENDS
Americans Cold
Says Foreigner
By CARMEN GONZALEZ
Most of the American students make no Pi fort lo ne-come friends with the foreign students, said Faranak Ghaifari, foreign students’ representative, as more than 1000 SC international students begin celebration of International Week.
“When vou are a guest in someone's home, you expect them to take the initiative in seeing that vou ate happvsaid Miss Ghaffari. “Well, in a wav. foreign «indents are th" guests of Americans. >o it is not too much
to ask that Americans show rort on their part to ? foreign students feel
some et
make th w cleome
From I ran
Miss Ghaffari. whi> is from Iran, said it is on'y natural that foreign sndents feel shy when they first come to the United
States.
"After all. vou have to remember that most of them come from coumties with completely different cultures." she said. "They are hound to be hesitant in making friends, for they don t know what to expec*. If vou put yourself in their position, vou would probably feel the same way.”
I nfriendly
"Since American «indents interpret 1hi> shyness a« being '■oofness, thev lahel foreign students as ‘unfriendly,’ she continued.
Miss Ghaffari felt that foreign students should not stick as closely to their nationality groups. “They have a definite desire to mix with the Americans. but they join their own groips in self defense. Rut don’t m «'oderstand me.’’ she said. *‘I think three groups should exist, because they offer a sood oppor-tun’tv for foreign students to rv-rserve their cultures. I just think they should mix more with the American«”
After AM
"After all.” she continued, “they come tr> this country to assimilate th^ir cultures Thcv're certain'v not gaining much if thev just associate with their own coontrymen ” Miss Ghaffa-ri p'so feels the Americans have much to ga!n from mating the foreien students “If you have friends from India, for examole. that country doesn't seem as far aw >v when you read about it in the papers."
On the Row This nast vear. sororities and fraternities have been inviting foreien students to their houses for dinner Miss Ghaffari thought this program h^d been a failure. "The Social Committee has worked very hard to make these dinners successful." she said, "but not enough foreign students have shown interest. I think this could he because they feel the row is just being charitable. They want to make friends on an equal basis with the Americans.”
Favors Center Miss Ghaffari was strongly in favor of an International Center that would help foreign and
American students get Liaint-
ed “This would be a _ :ood plaee
for them to gather fw een
classes, and could als< > rx> used
(or various functions.'' she said.
However. Mis^ Ghaf fari was

"If foreign students li V ed t het e
it would only tend t o isolate
