victims of schizophrenia or split

In fact, said DIR. Robert Heath of
Tulane University, it is possible
that the disease-once thought TO
be wholly a mental or nervous dis
order-may be determined through
an Unborn error in metabolism.
He said a serum fraction from

been found to produce the same
symptoms of personality change in
normal human volunteers.

special Importance to those coun-

planned.
"Initially, the sponsoring medical
schools would furnish the required
faculty and staff. AS rapidly as
qualified native physicians, allied
medical scientists, and nurses are
available, they would replace A
merican faculty and staff mem

The program would incorporate
the exchange principle, he said.
"The graduate teaching program
of the sponsoring medical school
should, as feasible, be directed to
attract young American physicians
to receive part of their advanced
training and to teach in the hos
pitfalls located in the foreign coun-
try" he said ''At the same time,
each sponsoring school should be
encouraged to offer educational
opportunities in their own schools
and hospitals to selected native
students and graduates"

EMO Montoneri, our ATS stu
dent in Milford High School, was
interviewed Sunday evening re-
garding his views on his stay in
America this year. He is quite
happy and content with his family,
Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel Friedman and
their son Jack.
AT first the language barrier
was an important factor because
he had very limited vocabulary.
With the reading requirements at
school and his interest in the news
papers this difficulty was soon
overcome. EMO said he still works
with a dictionary to increase his
word usuage, and he tries to learn
new words every night.
The school life in Sicily is COM
pletely different from the United
States. His classes at iome are
from $50 to 100 p. M, and the
teachers change rooms instead of
the students. Boys and girls do not
mingle within the school. They
have separate entrances, and it is
a strict rule of the institution that
they do not fraternize. There are
no social clubs or organizations
within the school. There is no dat
ing of teen-agers as in this country
Boys and girls associate in groups
with parents in attendance. only
when they become engaged, and in
some instances only when married
do they gain independence. EMO
feels this STILES the development
of a personality. He was amazed at
a Student Council meeting at Lew
es that young girls OF IA and 10
could talk with self assurance. He
feels this early training in self
organization is a very good way OF
life.
The ATS program is of great
value for boys and girls of his age
in helping them form true judge
ments of a country. He feels the
program must be increased, and
he hopes to carry home some good
ideas, but these will only work If
many boys and girls understand
this way of life. He made it clear
that his island of Sicily is not to be
compared with all of Italy.
EMO lived away from last
year while attending a school
in a large city in 81 lily.
He found it very diff fl C u t
to make friends, but in Milford
everyone is interested in him, and
it has been a pleasure to attend
school were students are all anxi-
Gus to help him. Studying takes a
great deal of his time after school,
He lis a member of the cross-coun-
try team and hopes to go out for
wrestling as the next season comes
on.
After January first EMO will be
available to speak before organiza-
tions. So his schedule will not be
crowded, please contact Mrs. Rob-
ert Mercer at GA2-5479.
