Sanskrit ers un ers By THOMAS H. AARON, AFS Student Chapter Advisor, SHS The American Field Service is a private, non-profit organization. It was founded in 1914 as a volunteer ambulance corps of 2500 volunteers, which served with the allied forces during World War I and carried more than 500,000 wounded. In 1917, the American Field Service was incorporated into the U.S. Army, but action in the field had given AFS its name, the American Field Serivce. AFS was reactivated during World War II and American volunteers again drove ambulances, first in France until its fall, then in the North African desert with the British, and later in Europe and in the jungles of Burma and India.• Its 2,200 men served with the armies of many C heri TabOrol O N I~WSe court,hoIdSorder of SessiOnAmaranth was ~P~~° High h I Sp tlight Belles me t The 62nd session of the grand Feature Writer, JAN DANFORD on March 2 1 held in Seattle from March 22 through March 24. 4z solid hours each and of the choir and is active in the Cindy Winters and Linda Attending from Laurel Court solitaire claims the Assemblies Committee and in the Rasmussen joined the Busy Belles or.

The Longs were married in Corinth, Mississippi on April 2, 1933. They came to the west coast in 1940 and to Shelton in January of 1963. They have two daughters, Judy Masteller of Vancouver, Washington, and June Piazza of San Jose, California. Their five grandchildren range in ages from nine months to 15 years. Friends and relatives are welcome to attend the party, which will be hostessed by the Longs' daughters and by a niece, Mary Baldwin of Olympia. In the small still hours of a cold winter night for some obscure purpose that seemed sensible at the time, I stepped out upon my windswept front porch in nothing but my outing-flannel negligee. The door blew shut and locked me out. Let it be said to my credit that I did not panic, although my plight might well have been assessed as somewhat desperate. There was no hope of crawling through a window. My windows have been painted shut for years. My only chance, short of shattering a glass, was to force entry through my bolted back door. I made my chilly way around the house, bare feet treading gingerly upon the frozen roughness of the ice-encrusted mud. I gazed in speculation at the rear door of my domicile. I considered myself adequate to the task before me. Hadn't I seen it done time and time again on television? I stepped back ten feet or so, led with a shoulder and took a running leap. Strong on brawn and short on brains, I proceeded to prove beyond a doubt what happens when a none-too-irre- s]stible torce meets a somewhai less than immovable object. I crashed through the all-too-cooperative door to sprawl flat on my face on the floor, rudely-aroused cats scattering in a dozen directions. As I picked the splinters out of my nose I shuddered to recall the many nights I had slept in psuedo-safety beyond this flimsy barrier. I decided to correct the situation immediately, and proceeded to nail a 15-inch length of two-by-four across the shattered shell of wood that had failed to withstand my attack. I slid home the bolt and joggled the door. Solid as the well-known Rock. The next time I locked myself out I had to wriggle through the bathroom airvent which is 12 inches by 16 inches while 1, at my widest point, am 18 inches in diameter and this is indeed a quick but brutal way to lose three pounds. Most of the mortals Whose well-bolted portals To fears of assault may attest Are those unenlightened But needlessly frightened That nobody wants to molest. JOHN AND MABLE LONG were married in 1933.

In 1947, the AFS ambulance drivers initiated the winter program in which students from abroad came to live for a year with US families to study in secondary schools. The idea for the Winter Program was based on the experience of AFS volunteers that close, personal associations between individuals of different nations foster international understandings and friendship. The American Abroad Programs were started in 1950 by the Winter Program students who, once they had returned home, wanted to offer young Americans the kind of opportunity which they had provided in the United States. Through its programs, AFS hopes to develop understanding and respect between individuals and mutual awareness of different cultures and ways of life, all in the framework of a significant educational experience. Today there are 1200 students participating in the Summer Program and 400 in the School Program from the US. Candidates for the Americans Abroad Programs are screened by Penny Drive kick-off for Tuesday sac "Penny Drive" is an annual fund-raising drive supporting the Seattle Children's Orthopedic Hospital and Medical Center.
