Dr. Gwlnn died of Internal Injuries early this summer after the wall of an eight-foot deep excavation collapsed on him. He was studying sand formations near Baton Rouge, La.

We all owe her a debt r of gratitude and will miss her - expert guidance in this area of our University." When Dean Viglione assumed the dean's position in Sept., 1957, d she found 47 students in the nurs ing program. Under her guid ance and administration the rSchool has progressed, both aca e demically and in enrollment, and more than 325 students are en rolled this semester. t The experience and profession I alism brought to the post by Dean p Viglione left no doubt that the e School of Nursing would pro I gress.

Donald B. Marshall spent the first part of the summer in France involved in research con cerning French colonial problems and the progress made there in international public relations. Although domestic politics were not the purpose of his visit, Dr. Marshall also gained insight into the University riots which oc curred in Paris shortly before his arrival. Dr. Marshall now plans to be gin work on French-African rela tions. Dr. Richard Walker, Dr. Donald Weatherbee and Instructor James Myers conducted a study of the development of local government in Taiwan, Formosa. They returned home after spending a week in Vietnam. Prof. Raymond A. Moo r e taught at the University of Syd ney in Australia. He then went to Hobart, Tasmania, as guest lecturer at the University of Tas mania. Prof. Moore will remain there until January. During the latter part of the summer, Prof. Paul W. Black stock and his wife conducted a mountain climbing school in Du rango, Colo. He has returned safely to the University. Perhaps the most interesting summer was that of Dr. Lasslo Gorgey. Dr. Gorgey was in Eu rope researching East-West rela tions, and at the time of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia was an eye-witness to the oc cupation. From his hometown in Hun gary, Dr. Gorgey was able to observe the movement of Russian troops and equipment.

The new Dean did not, hoi ever, step into a job unaware what would be demanded of hi In fact, she knew perhaps bett than anyone else the great ne for a first-rate nursing school f South Carolina. She had seen t] "big picture" first hand whi conducting a survey of nursir education needs in the Palmet State at the request of the pree dents of the University, the Med :al College and Winthrop. So when Judge Donald S. Ru sell, then president of the Unive 3ity, asked Miss Viglione to b :ome the first dean of the schoc 3he had some ideas of what expect, and she left her job j associate director of the Divisi of Nursing of the W. K. Kelloj Foundation to accept the cha lenge. She proved more than equal the task and during the next t years the School made outstan ing contributions through bo the quality and quantity of i program, its faculty, its studeni and its service to nursing South Carolina. Although giant strides ha been taken, Dean Viglione sees necessity for providing for co tinued expansion and improv ment of the School of Nursih along the guidelines she helpi establish. The biggest need, according Dean Viglione, is the expansi< >f facilities and resources whi< would make possible use of ne teaching methodology, resear and new programming. The mo :rucial new program she feels rieeded, is the initiation of gra iate education in nursing throui which teachers, administrato and clinical practitioners can 1 prepared to fill the needs with the state. Dean Viglione received t] diploma in nursing from Roc' ester General Hospital Scho of Nursing, the B.S. degree fro reacher's College, Columbia Ur versity, and the M.A. degree fro the University of Chicago.

E STR ANGER MAD I MGM rsents An Alien Klein productlon starring " THE ' ' NGER RETURNS" THE LUXURIOUS NEW almetltto Attitudes Of Czechs Said Firm The R u a 9 1 a n takeover of Czechoslovakia will not change the mental attitude of the Czech people, a USC international stud ies professor who saw part of the invasion observed recently. "You can't fight 'isms' with tanks and bayonets," said Dr. Laszlo Gorgey, and therefore the Russians, although they put an end to certain overt displays of liberalism, cannot change the mental attitude of the Czechs. Gorgey witnessed Soviet troop movements from his hometown of Satoraljaujhely, Hungary, about a mile and a half from the Czech Hungarian border. "If communist party members condemned the invasion of Czechoslovakia, then what did the common man think ?" Gorgey mused concerning the reactions of disbelief by his countrymen. He said the invasion caused a profound shock on Hungarians. The initial shock turned to great dismay and then to fear, a fear that again government would put a temporary end to the tendencies toward liberalization. However, there was no immedi ate and obvious reaction by the Hungarian people, according to Gorgey, primarily because they wanted to give no reason for any kind of harassment upon them selves. Gorgey called the Soviet inva sion a sign of weakness, rather than strength, on the part of the Soviets. The mere fact that mili tary force had to be used was a blow to Russian prestige. Prof. Gorgey said Czechoslo vakia was expecting some reper cussions from their liberal ten dencies, but the military invasion was quite a surprise. "The speed and precision of the takeover was unbelievable," said the USC professor, "and nearly everybody was taken by complete surprise." Gorgey was in West Berlin when the Czech crisis began to forment. Later from Budapest, Hungary, he was able to observe first hand the effects of tighten ing Soviet control before the in vasion took place. lecorating the house d Pomps, the flame Drate anything beau do it faster, easier, cut 6" x 6" square, tat are virtually run kstore, school supply iur librarian for our "If she doesn't have rder your own copy.
