International Students
Celebrate U. N. Week
Mila La&ala
Mercer’s eight international students observed the
twentieth anniversary of the United Nations at the Dempsey
Hotel Oct. 21, sponsored by Macon's Council of World Affairs.
Attending from Mercer were
Hans Schaihle of Germany. Ali
Daher of Israel. Aogu Masuda of
Japan. Sam Om of Nigeria, Mo
hammad Zonoun and Kaivanna
Bahman. both of Iran. Yousef
Marcos of Jordan, and Mila Lasala
of the Philippines.
Two of the internationals are
new students at Mercer this year.
Hans Schaihle, a junior from Uni
versity of Germany with an F'co-
nomics major, is here on a Rotary
Exchange Scholarship. So far Hans
has found it easy to adjust to the
American way of life. He s|X‘aks
both English and French as well as
his native German. His hobbies are
skiing and making minature air
planes. The main difference Hans
has noticed between Euro(>ean and
American universities is the fact
that American universities have
more rules and regulations imposed
upon the students and less aca
demic freedom. Hans also found it
quite an experience living in the
dorm, because Germany univer
sities don't even have campi. He
has found it a pleasant experience
living here in America. According
to Hans, "Americans are the nicest
and kindest people I’ve ever met."
All Daher, a native of Nazareth
Israel, is here on Mercer’s Inter
national Scholarship. He came here
from Brewton-Parker Junior Col
lege and is a junior pre-med stu
dent. This is his third year in the
United States, and he plans to go
hack to Israel 'after obtaining his
medical degree. Skiing, table ten
nis. and reading are his favorite
pastimes He commented on Amer
ican life. "Life in America is much
too easy that everybody takes
everything for granted. They just
don't know how fortunate they are
to have this kind of freedom from
the other people of the world. On
the whole 1 have been to several
rxiuntries before and when 1 came
to America. I met the warmest,
friendliest people in the world."
The other highlights of U. N
Week was a dinner given by the
Macon Exchange Club for the in
ternational students followed hy a
visit to the exhibits and rides at
the Georgia State Fair.
The international students would
like to say how grateful they are
to their international advisors. Mr
Clegg, Miss Behrens, and Mr. and
Mrs. Vance, apd all others who
havo shown them friendship

"The program is called ZIP cixle
Our national volume this fiscal year
exceeded 72 billion pieces and it
rises annually at the rate of 2'y

available to us, we have had to
adopt this new method of sorting,
transporting, and delivering the
