tature Student Government ossible Says NSA Scribe
Happiness Reigns Supreme As Coed Returns AWOL Animal
The case of the missing coatimundi was solved last night when Fine Arts student Grace Bryant returned the AWOL pet to Jack Fulbeck, English and man and civilization instructor.
Mrs. Bryant found the coatimundi near the Architecture Building last Friday and took it home.
Last summer Fulbeck found the coatimundi while exploring in the Yucatan jungle of Mexico and named it “Joe”. “I named it before I looked,” he said. The animal turned out to be a female.
“ ‘Joe’ will definitely go on social-probation for some time,” said Fulbeck when he discussed what punishment would be meted out to the wandering pet. _

hr At ,he last NSA Congress
represented by it will have to live a whole year with the problems faced by the students in New York, Tokyo, and Paris.
The Senate had to do a lot of mature thinking in deciding whether or not to accept the resolutions included in the coordinator's report on the last NSA Congress.
In a single evening the senate was forced to consider the deep implications of NSA resolutions on discrimination against ex-communist teachers, loyalty test oaths, and the McCarran-Walters Immigration Act.
Proof that student representatives will care about the outside world if given a chance was dramatically exhibited in the debate on loyalty test oaths. Jerry McMahon, ASSC president and NROTC scholarship student, yielded the chair ln order to defend the Navy Department’s stand or requiring loyalty oaths from Its officers. The issue was debated by other members of the Senate who felt equally strongly that the oaths should be abolished.
Right or wrong, these people will be more valuable citizens for having done a thoughtful analysis on the problem.
The student body was also given an opportunity to debate the merits and demerits
The Intercultural Club will sponsor an “International Concert'' tomorrow at 8:15 p.m. in Bovard Auditorium.
The program will feature outstanding works from 14 different countries performed by students from those countries. SC's foreign students hope to present a musical comparison between American culture and the cultures of their countries.

Audio-Visual Head Has Goodwill Coal
Glenn McMurrv, head of SCs audio-visual services department, has a goal—international goodwill. To help reach it, he serves as Culver City chairman of the exchange student committee of the American Field Service International Scholarships.
McMurry started the program in Culver City two years ago to bring high school students from foreign countries to study In the United States for one year, lie first heard of the plan when he was in Europe in the summer of 1952 on a survey for the Department of State.
When thpse outstanding high school students arrive from abroad they live as members of American families in a “grass roots" el fort to improve international understanding.
“If we can first establish friendship and understanding lie- >
tween pprsons from different countries, and then between families, perhaps we can reach the ultimate goal of friendship between nations,” McMurry said.
When the program started in Los Angeles County there were only 11 foreign students in four communities. This year in Los Angeles and Orange counties (the latter having students for the first time) '22 communities have welcomed 45 students.
American students also go abroad for two months to live with a foreign family.
These American students must be juniors in high school. They return to this country dedicated to the cause of International goodwill. In the summer of 1954, a total of 410 Americans were sent on the program. Last summer there were 605, and next year there probably will be 900.
