The town is justly famous
for two beautiful villas. the
Palazzo Rufolo and the Villa
Cimbone.
Composer Richard Wagner
fell in love with the Villa
Rufolo. When he saw it the
first time he exclaimed, here
is the ideal setting for my gar
den of KlingSor." Today Wag-
merriam concerts are given in
this romantic setting of the
villa gardens.
1t has been said, according
to Italian writer Guido Pho
vene. that the landscaping
delights of Rufolo and Cim-
bone, along with those to be
found in Charleston, SC,
ARE the most extraordinary
gardens in the world"
Travellers who know Ra-
vello describe it as a STU
pendous oasis" a place
of exotic plants. flowers and
vines >. D.. with gardens hang
ing over cliffs to the sea.
Near the villa, which Prince
and Princess Radziwill have
rented, the countryside is
TERED with orange and lemon
groves.

The town itself dates from
the 9th century. Guide books
call it a small village with
melancholy ruins Of palaces

There are two churches in
Ravello worth sightseeing
time.
The Duomo or Cathedral
was built in 1886 by the first
Bishop Of Ravello. There is a
famous pulpit made by Mich

The other church of st.

ABetterWorld

Of colleges and universities would go abroad
this summer as ambassadors" our Offices
were flooded with offers from potential hosts
abroad. The invitations were always warm,
and sometimes made us smile. An Istanbul
bookkeeper wrote: my character generally
is very smooth" And man in Germany who
already had opened his home to an American
visitor wrote us: "Our first American friend
was the best man have ever seen in my life,
a very good, hearty man, gentleman. He
was no officer, he was private"
. In Kansas City, an 8-year-old bibliOphile
recently presented $50 of his choicest books to
PeOple-toPeOple, explaining, I'm on my way,
and | can't carry my books with me-"
As you can see from the above examples,
People-to-People is warm and human under
taking. But we have our statistics as well. For
instance, more than two million books have
been collected in America and sent abroad.
Over two million hobby enthusiasts have ex-
changed information on everything from Air
planes (modeD, to Zebras Stuffed.
The sunlight Of peace
Thus there are ways that you can work
for peace and, happily, there are results that
can be documented. Through the l2-point
People-to-People program, we Americans will
learn more about other peoples = and they
will learn more about us. There should be an
expanding crusade to portray the American
way of life, the American system, the Ameri-
can people in all areas of our national being,
cultural and intellectual, recreational and
social, professional and economic.
There is an eagerness on the part Of 9th.
ers to know about US and our way of life -
make no mistake about it. The chairman Of
U.S.-Latin American cultural club wrote US
recently of his desire for an American flag for
his club. ri would like to get an American
flag for my library. We need the flag, all fifty
stars Do the best to help me. Send the flag
airmail Cod bless you" We sent him the
flag airmail
Some day, if we all strive for that day,
there will be thousands, and then millions of
people like this man. Some day the worlds
citizens will achieve mutual understanding.
And some day, fervently pray soon, man will
emerge from the dark shadows of war and fear
of war, to live ever after in the sunlight Of
peace, with Justice, in freedom. -THE END

longing assignments | have ever undertaken.
Our board of directors aren't merely figure
heads: we all are actively attempting to spread
the concept Of PeOple-tO-People throughout
the land. We all firmly believe that peace
should be and can be everybOdy's business. In
a world which is shrinking incredibly every
day with each new development in communi-
cations and transportation, the actions of
every individual can have an effect on our
progress on the road to peace.

Not governments only

As we all know, governments today speak
only to other governments. The results or
lack of results are dramatized in newspapers,
on radio and television.
But if the peoples represented BY these
governments are mutually convinced of each

decency Of purpose, governments TiH begin to

In one word, People-to-People means COM
munication - voluntary, nOn-governmental
program to help all the uOrlf S population learn
more about each other.
One of the most admirable traits Of the
American is his eagemess to reach mutual
understanding with people of other nations.
The question he to do it? To solve this
problem, People-to-People has developed a
list of II positive actions which THIS WEEK
presents at the right. These are activities that
you as an individual American can carry on to
build friendship between this nation and the
people OF the world.
However, have always felt that lists by
themselves often fail to show clearly how
program works. Therefore, I've collected some
vivid examples of People-to-People in action
= examples that were direct result of our
l2-point program and, l might say, examples
that could just as easily have happened to you:

year of pilot program at the University of
Kansas. This past year the Kansans were host
to 3Ol foreign students from 81 nations. The

many times, says Virginia Poly
technic Institute Forester c. E.
Gill. The forester found another
example Of the Importance Of
proper management on a recent
visit to the farm Of w. A. White
in King William County.
White has two adjacent wood
land areas. About 10 years ago
he destroyed the worthless grow
til on one plot and planted lob
Jolly pine. These trees have
thrived and in a few years will
need thinning. The farmer can
expect a dividend Of about $40
per acre as the Trimmings can
be sold for pulpwood.
In Is years the remaining trees
should reach saw-timber size
and a valuable crop ready for
harvest. White told Gill the i'm
provements had cost little in cut
of-pocket expense.

Missiles May
Increase From
Cuban Crisis
BY IVES HAYDEN

WASHINGTON. D. c., Nov. 80
One significant by product Of
the current Caribbean crisis
may well be a renewal Of pres
sure on the Defense Department
from influential Capitol Hill
quarters for a production start
on the Nike ZeuS antimissile
system.
A Enthusiastically complicated
and expensive weapon the Zeus
has been under development for
the past several years by an
industrial combine including
3 ell Telephone Laboratories.
Western Electric Company and
Douglas Aircraft.
It's third generation men,
Der of the Nike family which
first produced the Ajax and then
the Hercules as anti aircraft
missiles.
Far more intricate than either
of its forbears, the Zeus is de-
signed for a very simple and
direct purpose to detect, inter
cept and destroy any missile
unche d by hostile forces
against a U. S. target.
Top-echelon Army research
experts have been arguing for
the past two years for at least
limited production of long
lead" items in the Zeus system
so that an assembly line can be
set up quickly once the la st
kinks in the weapon have been
worked out by development
people.
The Defense Department, even
while conceding that the zeus is
the only anti-missile system now
far enough along to offer any
foreseeable tense against
ICBM's, has just as consistent
ly commended that even pre-
production isn't yet justified by
research and development prog
ress hence has refused to turn
loose funds for that phase of the
project.

Those words, spoken many
months ago, are italicized by the
events Of recent weeks when, at
least for a time, the spectre of
missiles pointed at the United
States heart was a very real pos
sibility instead of something to
be shrugged off with an it-can't

been exhausted, the subcommit-
tee staff says.

Curing Pork
Virginia Style

The frost is on the pumpkin

the days Of a number of Vir-
GINA hogs are numbered. says
D. l.. Peery. Prince Edward
county agent.
A hog that weighs about 200
pounds live will suit the needs
of most farm families best.
Peery believes. Most hogs are
slaughtered for their yield of
lean meat. and after 200 pounds
most Of the weight gained is in
the form of fat.
A 20O-pound hog will yield cuts
that are desirable in size. Hams
viii weigh about IS pounds each.
the loins about 10 to Is pounds.
and the belly will be thick
enough for desirable bacon.
Water temperatures OF 145 to
$50 degrees are best for scald-
ing hogs. Too high temperatures
will contract the skin around the
base OF bristles and hold them
tight. This is known as setting
the hair"
Chill Carcass
The carcass should be
thoroughly chilled before any
cutting is done. Then the carcass
should be cut as soon as practi-
cal after it is chilled. There
are several styles VI cutting a
pork carcass, the county agent
says.
It may be split down the

Nugent Exuding Optimism
As Terps Open Spring Drills

Maryland's football team,
amid the optimistic chirps of
Coach Tom Nugent, begins
spring football practice today
to get ready for Southern
Methodist and the nine other
opponents that will follow next
fall.
The general opinion is that
we have a good football team
in the making" Nugent beamed
yesterday as he issued a o.
man roster and briefed the
press on what's what and who's
who.
Who's who? Nugent glanced
momentarily past the spring
and into the fall and promptly
staked a claim.
He says Maryland will have
the best defensive secondary in
the Atlantic Coast Conference
with Ernie Arizzi. Murnis Ban
ner and Tom Brown. They're
as good a set of deep backs as
you can find," Nugent said,
probably wishing SINUS passers
had been tuned in.
What's what? Well, with
Nugent no ones ever quite sure.
The Maryland skipper began
talking enthusiastically about
some player changes and ended
announcing an offensive-de-
fensive switch among his
coaches.
Whitley Dovell and Frank
Toomey move from offenSe to
defense. Going the other way,
from defense to offense, are
ALT Satterfield and Lee Corso.
THE purpose? Only to Gre
ate more enthusiasm and to
stimulate thinking" Nugent
said, asking and answering his
own question.
He figures a shift like this
keeps the staff alert, offers
new challenges and eliminates
any possibility Of fuzzy think
ing. The Terps, under Nugent,
have improved steadily from a
SIS record, to GA, to last years
7-3 chart.
In addition to the swing
Evening star., 1962-04-05

The spring sessions also will
mark a search for a punter,
a shift from fullback to end
for Harry Butsko and a shift
for the entire Squad-from Q
two-unit system to the three
platoon idea.
Tossed in among all the ex-
periments will be a unique one
concerning a lefthanded center.
This isn't as bad as 1t sounds.
Fred Joyce, a rising soph, has
impressed the staff with his
linebacking and will be tested
at center, although he's left
handed. 1t probably Will mean
converting him to making
righthanded snaps.

shift among some Of his
coaches, Nugent, the man with
all the ideas, said he might
even have a switching offense.
One set of backs would be
geared to a wide-open attack,
another to a grinding power
game.
This depends almost entirely
on the springtime development
Of two bright newcomers, Quar-
terback Mike Funk and Full
back Jerry Fishman. both of
whom are highly regarded as
runners. They'd provide the
oomph for system No. 2. Dick
