said. "It's a way to promote pride that farmers

"Thev can apply these things in their own

Since 1981, World Food Day has been observed
by more than 140 countries. Observations are planned
to stimulate public involvement in a global
movement dedicated to the eradication of hunger
and to providing secure supplies of food.
"Hunger doesn't discriminate between cultures,"
Disasa said. "Hunger doesn't have to be in Asia or
other Southeast countries ? it can also be in South
Carolina."

Student demonstrators sat in

smoke, while the rest, screaming,
threw flyers into the air, and
themselves to the ground.

Their flyers read: "This was
