Cousins Set Tomorrow
By STAN METZI.ER Assistant to the Editor
Norman Cousins. editor of the Saturday Review, will ask “Are We Smart Enough to Operate a Civilization?” tomorrow at 10 a.m. in Hancock Auditorium.
His speech, sponsored by the Great Issues Forum, will cover a range of topics including American foreign policy, Red China and the Soviet Union. Vietnam, civil rights, environmental problems and the budget.
It will be in effect a verbal summary of the Saturday Review's editorial pages, a weekly forum of introspection and influence commenting on the full scope of the American scene.
Cousin's editorials were among the first to perceive the implications of atomic energy, and the magazine has been in the forefront of national debates over such nuclear issues as a ban on atomic tests and worldwide control on bombs.
Cousins has argued for the full development of the United Nations into a world organization capable of enacting and enforcing world law, has proposed a revamping of educational curricula and has urged an approach to world problems based not on national but on human interests.
Among the programs initiated on these pages have been the “Hiroshima Maidens” project, which provided for plastic surgery to Japanese women disfigured in the 1945 bombing: and a similar treatment for Polish Catholic women mutilated by Nazi medical experimenters during World War II.
Cousins joined the Saturday Review, then the Saturday Review of Literature in 1940, four years after graduating from Columbia University. He had been educational reporter for the New York Evening Post and managing editor of Current History.
In his quarter-century of editorship the journal’s circulation has risen from 20.000 to 50 000. and its sicope of coverage includes books, music, art, education, travel, science, photography, communications, drama and film.
Cousins has. written eight books, edited three other volumes and Literature, in 1940. four years after graduating from Columbia Univer-
He has represented the United States at numerous foreign dedications and serves on many governmental commissions.
Other honors include the USC Award for Excellence in Journalism, 1962: the personal medallion of Pope John XXIII, 1963; past president of the Overseas Press Club Foundation; honorary president of the United World Federalists; and chairman of the McCall Corp. Editorial Committee.

Doheney, Foley Advocate Trial Membership in NSA
By FRED SWEGLES
Clyde Doheney and Martin Foley, opposing ASSC presidential candidates, both favor trial membership in NSA personally but feel their opinions should not influence student voting in next week’s election.
The candidates made their statements at a press conference yesterday with ASSC President Taylor Hackford moderating.
Doheney, while expressing personal support for NSA membership, said it will probably lose in next week’s elections.
Foley asserted the ASSC proposal for membership, which was made two days before the CIA’s affiliation with NSA was uncovered, was a responsible move. CIA-NSA ties, he said, have changed the issue from being student-oriented to political-oriented.
He called the issue a “personal decision” for each student.
If NSA membership passes and he is elected. Doheney said he would send student-elected delegates; if the NSA proposal loses, he would send one elected representative to observe NSA and propose a new election on the membership issue if membership seemed more worthwhile later.
In suggesting personally that USC join NSA for one year, Foley said the issue was not a major one. USC should not join NSA as a “parasite, just to reap benefits, but to test what USC can contribute as a dynamic force,” he explained.
Doheney agreed, saying NSA membership w'ould provide a student forum among several hundred schools sharing similar problems, such as campus services, effeciency, and problems affecting student life.
Doheney called NSA membership an exchange with other universities to “find out what is going on outside our area.” But he expressed some concern over how' much the NSA would try to influence USC’s campus life and local independence.
Some reservations were also expressed by Foley, who observed that students have been well informed on the matter, whether with biased information or not.
He said his personal opinion of the NSA did not change when CIA-NSA affiliation was uncovered.
“CIA support of NSA was a very worthwhile thing insofar as it helped NSA internationally in attending conferences,” he asserted. “However,
when it was uncovered, it had a grave effect on the U.S. student's image abroad, because of the emotions involved.”
He cited Senators Robert F. Kennedy and Everett M. Dirksen as supporters of the CIA-NSA affiliation.
Doheney agreed that the uncovering of CIA-NSA affiliation did not change his favoring NSA member-
ship. When the CIA involvement became known, he said, students began to try to disassociate the CIA from the NSA.
Openly, CIA support of the NSA would have been good. Doheney observed, showing that the U.S. government and people are behind their students. But student image was hurt because the affiliation was hidden.

She endorses trial membership in NSA for a year, after which students could decide wThether to continue membership after they “actually know how it will affect USC.”
In general, she says she endorses moving toward "better and more responsible government”

be able to vote on 28th St. if they contact Elections Commissioner Laury Scott before the elections.
There will be no ballot area on 37th St., as previously planned, so students who signed up to vote there wiill have to vote at Bovard. Scott said.
ABSENT KNIGHTS FACE SUSPENSION
Trojan Knights will begin enforcing its rule that two unexcused absences will result In suspension from the organization.
A $5 fine for all unexcused absences will also be impossed. Excuses may be submitted to Dean Hull’s office.
These decisions, passed at the last Knights meeting, will not be retroactive. They will go into effect with Wednesday’s meeting.
All Knights must also pay a $2.50 assessment before Friday night’s luau.
Resolutions on the ballot will include the question of joining NSA; a programming fee for students; and a change in voting procedures which would allow a candidate with a 40 per cent plurality to be declared winner in a primary election.
Mansueto suggests that groups work jointly on larger projects so that the burden of the w'ork won’t be put on organization. She also urges more organized cooperation between AWS and AMS groups, such as more joint projects between Spurs. Amazons, Knights and Squires.
“I feel this would be an effective way of getting a larger response to projects,” she said.
Miss Mansueto proposes a redefinition of group principles as a means to better coordination of AWS activities. “I think the groups should plan their projects to eliminate overlapping activities and goals,” she said.
“Having been an active member of AWS for the past year I feel I have gained considerable insight into its problems. I want to be given the opportunity to work and work effectively for AWS. I feel I can better cope with AWS problems as vice-president.” she said.
Miss Mansueto is a member of AWS Associate Cabinet, the Alumnae Tea Committee, and the Honors Program. She is a member of Gamma Phi Beta and maintains a 3.25 grade point average. She is former WHA representative.

'CANT KILL A GOOD IDEA-
Plan for I-House Originated in Vienna
(This is the first of a two-part series on the International Student House, located at 801 W. 28th St. Today’s article deals with its founding; tomorrow’s will discuss its programs.—The Editor)
By CARLA SWEENEY
“You just can’t kill a good idea,” Russ Decker, wrho founded the International Student House in 1962, said recently in a Daily Trojan interview'.
The I-House had its peak of activity the 1% years Decker was its cochairman. Today, with renewed student interest and capable leadership, it is again realizing its objective of “providing an opportunity for American and foreign students to become aware of each other.”
Decker got the idea for an international student center after twro years as an exchange student in Vienna, where there was an excellent cultural and social program for foreign students.
Back at USC, he roomed with a student from Jordan and came to understand the foreign student's isolation.
He began talking of a center for both foreign and American students, founded on the Stanford plan of a house in which to meet rather than live.
Bart Leddel, while then running for ASSC president, promised that if he were elected, the planned center would have the ASSC behind it.
Decker eyed the deserted Acacia fraternity house at 801 W. 28th St. as the spot for the center.
“The Row' is the crossroad of tiie campus. I felt then and I still feel this is the best location for the I-House,” Decker, now associate director, said.
He moved into the house in the summer of 1963 and began soliciting funds and organizing repairs on the 50-year-old building.
Furnishings were donated; fraternity and sorority pledges did the decorating. Together, foreign and American students created recreation and meeting rooms as well as authentic Oriental, Middle Eastern and Latin American rooms.
For finances, fraternities and sororities pledged $15 a month; subscriptions to a semimonthly bulletin of events were sold: and private individuals and corporations in the community pledged support.
The project remained without official university sanction until the fall of 1962. The university had previously bought the house, and on Oct. 1 a year-long lease with a five-year option was signed permitting the International Student House Association to rent the building for $500 a month. After four months, when the association had proven its sincerity, the rent was cancelled.
