Robert Spitz, who is studying in night school of the university ex tension division, was born in Buda pest, Hungary. When the Germans entered Hungary, they picked him up off the street, loaded him into a truck, and took him to a concen tration camp. He was 14 years old at that time. He was liberated by the Ameri cans in 1945. At the time of his re lease, he weighed 64 pounds. It would be hard to imagine how he looked then because he now weighs 180 pounds. After three months spent re cuperating in a hospital, Spitz went to work for the American Occupa tion Army as an interpreter. He speaks seven languages including German, Russian, Hungarian, Polish, and (as he says) "a little English." Actually, he speaks English more correctly than most Americans.

Economy Tour, Study In Europe To Begin In July A special economy tour of Eu rope and Holy Year pilgrimage is beir.g offered to students and teachers this summer, according to John F. Parr, Assistant director of the National Catholic welfare con ference. This tour is offered to those attendling the University of Fribourg summer school, July 17 August 19, at Fribourg, Switzer land.

(USC P ent Of Hungary, in German Camp; it Night School In June of 1949, he came to the United States. He then came to ,Columbia and Opportunity School. At Opportunity School he made ex cellent progress and was an above average Eng'lish student. His ef forts at Opportunity School were rewarded in January of this year when he received a South Carolina State High School Diploma. He says that he would have liked very much to have been able to at tend the university this semester, but because of insufficient funds he was unable to do so. Spitz is now working during the day and going to the extension division's night school at night. When asked his opinion of night school, he answered that, although in his opinion, it was not as good as day school, he appreciated the opportunity of being able to attend any school. The most impressive part of this interview with the very friendly Hungarian was the way he said, "I'm sure glad the Americans go, there (the concentration camp) be fore the Russians." Callcott Will Meet Extension Leaders Tomorrow A. M. Dean of the Graduate School of the university, Dr'. W. H. Callcott, is very anxious to meet with all Extension Instructors, especially those who are teaching courses which may carry graduate credit.

H. Callcott told the Interna tional Relations Club at its meet ing Mar. 20, in '105' Maxey Col lege. He gave several reasons for this. Russia had at least 20,000 miles of railroad track destroyed in World War II. This must be replaced be fore any large-scale war activity can take llace. In 1950 Russia will produce only half as much steel as the United States. A large part of the food animals were destroyed during the war. It will be several years before enough cattle, hogs, and other animals are produced to make up this loss. If Russia were going to strike at the west she would have done so while we were changing our foreign policy with regard to Pales tine, or during the Berlin airlift. Russia could bomb this country, but is not strong enough to invade. She could not conquer us by bombs alone. "If we can maintain peace for 25 years, I don't think we will have to fight Russia," Dr. Callcott said. Political Science Departmienit Adds Several Courses Douglas Carlisle, professor of Political science, has announced that four newv core will be added to the p)olitical science department in September.
