Dedicated to the Principles 0 International Understanding Clasp the hands and know the thoughts of men in other lands. John Masefield The American Field Service International Scholarship is an open door which leads to understanding and friendship among the peoples of the world. It is one of many organizations that affords the opportunity to young people to be ambassadors of good will. By living in foreign countries, future citizens of the world learn to respect the similarities and differences among those who may live in different countries but whose dreams and efforts are directed toward a single goal of peaceful and useful life. Those who pass through the door are teen-agers who are adaptable, open-minded, and eager to learn. After their visit abroad, they realize that tol- erance, generosity, friendliness, and above all. understanding, is the key to lasting world peace. Exchanging ideas clerifies the entire perspective of world society. Not only differ- ences but many similarities are discovered. The more we know and understand, the more alike we peoples of the earth seem to be. In 776 B. C., competitive games were estab- lished throughout Greece to deviate the attention from war to constructive and intel- ligent skill. Peace was won in Greece by this measure and our Olympic Games of today are founded on the same idea. Our own athletic program, just as the Olympics, builds strong minds and bodies well aware of victory and defeat. It has been said that music is the inter- national language. Melody and rhythm is felt OUR STUDENTS T0 EUROPE Sherry Wilcoxon Munich, Germany 1953 VVilliam Krahling Esslingen, Germany 1953 Martha Olds Berlin, Germany 1954 :lf Pls Pk Diane Piccinin Stuttgardt, Germany 1954 if lk tk Judy Liber Riihimaki, Finland 1956 and heard inside. It needs no interpreter. Music can carry a message to any man and the universal love and appreciation of it is a plank in our platform of international agree- ment. Music and athletics are two examples of what we have in common with people every- where. Activities that we enjoy as part of our lives are also shared by people in other countries. A smile carries the clearest and most convincing message of all. Fun and laughter offer a language all their own. They are understood anywhere. Whoever you are, wherever you are, you will find people who want to enjoy life. The bright ring of laughter expresses happinessithe supreme desire of all. Through the AFS program we learn from Curt and Toya how to understand the races, creeds, and nationalities of the world. But l'l1OI'6 important, we realize that they are not so different after allg that it is actually easy and fun to live side by side with others in the world. In the same light, Judy tells that the Finns were wonderful to her and that she enjoyed living with the people of Finland. As we learn about Curt's homeland, and hear of Judy's experiences abroad, our minds grasp the similarities between these countries and our own. We realize that peace is not inevit- ableibut probable if our generation continues to grasp hands with men in other lands. Walk together, talk together O ye peoples of the earth. Then, and then only, Shall we have-Peace.
