CLOSE si it is i7 , 'ff ' ,rifle il if ,.ifm..., IMI . . fab K l l , l This year, despite the lack of advertising, the Close Up trip to Washington D C was a complete success Four students Diona Cheng, Christina Gangnuss Cindy Gregersen, and Charlie Stuller went on the trip Each said that they had a wonderful time The trip was full of seminars, workshops, lectures, and discussion groups on such subjects as trade, budget, defense, and labor unions.
