Upholcling this motto are the leaders, students, and teachers affiliated with the American Field Service. Their purpose is to promote international good will, friendship, and understanding be- tween nations of the world. Through the foreign exchange programs, American and European teenagers have an opportunity to learn about life abroad by spending a summer or a school year with a foster family in another country. This year Milford is host to Gudrin Norberg from Reykiavik, Iceland. During the past summer Jerry Knoche, as Milford's repre- sentative, was sent to live with a family in Cognac, France, and now is telling others of his experience there. The Penny a Mile for A.F.S., among other fund raising campaigns, enabled Milford to financially support this ex- periment in international relations.
