Mary Sue Copeland and
Dorothy Freed both from In

The girls will be in Kabul,
the capital of Afghanistan,
for two years. Their average
age is %.
A part of their training
consists of an hours ride
every day on bicycles. This
is to keep them in trim and
to get them used to the chief

country.
The girls also were pre-
pared to give up ham and
pork and all alcoholic bever-

since the people of Afghan

In Afghanistan, the wom-

Corps girls would not live like
that. But, they said, these
restrictions did rule out for
them strapless or sleeveless
dresses, shorts and Bermu-
das.
The progress made by the
girls in learning the Afghan
culture is remarkable. They
knew that when an Afghan

that the players can't go out on their own

SPORTS SPOTLIGHT
No Place Like Home?
CoIonioIs Don't Agree

Sf8 A MAN FROM-MARS MIGHT be prop
erly impressed with Earth Mans climb from
'Primeval darkness, but If he turned his at
tention to athletics at George Washington
University he just wouldn't believe it,
The Colonials have had to carry their
athletic program around in a bus and a
pickup truck and have had to operate with
more handicaps than Kelso. They have
no place to call their own. They are the
sports nomads of the area.
For baseball and tennis, the Colonials
are indebted to the D. C. Recreation De-
partment. For place to practice football,
they had to call on the Interior Department.
For golf, Indian Spring came to the rescue.
The Colonials practice basketball in their
own archaic gym and play at Fort Myer,
thanks to the Army, or at Washington
Coliseum.
Yet the Colonials have more than their
share Of Southern Conference champion
ship trophies. In the eight years since the
split that gave birth to the Atlantic Coast
Conference, the Colonials have chalked up
four baseball championships, five tennis
titles, three golf championships, two basket
ball crowns and have just missed in foot
ball, finishing second and third on several
occasions.
AND NOW, AS IN ANSWER to an ener-
getic athletic directors prayers, the Colo
mails football gate receipts are on the rise,
thanks to the new stadium.
It has been duly noted that the Colo
mails will entertain Army in the $24 million
stadium next fall. 1--WE expect to get $4,000
or 10000 people out for that game" says
handsome Bob Faris, GW's tireless athletic
director. "It will be our biggest home crowd
in history"
The Colonials and Virginia Military
drew $4,000 fans last fall in the stadiums
official opener, record home attendance
for CIV. The previous high was about 10000
for game against West Virginia in 1855 at
Griffith Stadium, where more often than
not Faris could count the attendance by
sight.
The rental at the new stadium is the
same for CIV as at Griffith Stadium. "But
that's no problem" Faris says I'VE would
rather rent. If we had our own stadium a
block away it would cost lot more than
renting one. The new stadium will help us
considerably. Last year we drew So, 900 for
four home games. The year before for the
same number of games in Griffith Stadium
we drew $4,000 With the Army game next
season we'll do very we'll"
THE COLONIALS ALSO ARE playing at

them two big names on the schedule. That's
the way Faris likes it. "Basically our in
