‘Ear-Bender 9 Relates Value Of Overseas Experiment THE BATTALION Wednesday, January 14, 1970 College Station, Texas Page 3 lafti : : : flgj ■■ i;; : =n' ^ An ear-bending booth will be in operation in the IMiemorial Student Center post office area Feb. 11-13. When Paul Scopel of Seguin goes on duty at the Experiment in International Living display, the earnbending will get energetic. An Experimenter to Austria last summer, Scopel believes in the advantages of EIL. “It gives a broader understand ing of people,” the junior mar keting major said. “One of the reasons we have so many problems in the U. S. is that we fail to appreciate oth ers’ problems,” he suggested. “One way to improve the situ ation is to learn another lan guage.” The MSC Travel Committee chairman, who got started in Ger man through EIL, also pointed out that many leading U. S. col leges and universities require a $ CASH USED BOOKS s Help Lou Help You S semester of work overseas. Based on the concept that it is best to learn to understand anoth er people and their culture by living among them as a member of their family, EIL also offers opportunity for extensive travel. After language training at Putney, Vt., and several weeks with his “family” near Vienna, Scopel and nine other Experi menters visited Northern Italy, Budapest, Hungary; Berschtes- garten, Germany, and Austria’s major cities. He also spent three days in Czechoslovakia. “The Czechs were more excit ing, more emotional, more crea tive,” he observed. “Hungarians, in comparison, were definitely subdued.” Scopel’s father was Rudolf Jansza of Soheibbs, Austria, 60 miles west of Vienna, which “we visited five times.” Jansza, rep resentative in the Lower Austria government who also owned an accounting firm operated out of the family home, added Paul to his family of 22-year-old Use, Rudi 19 and Christa 16. Active in the MSC as a direc torate assistant, member of Great Issues and SCONA XV delegate, Scopel also serves on the University Traffic Commit tee and participated in the UT Model U.N. Conference. EIL has caused Paul to bite off more, such as more courses in psychology and German. . ■ in®* rh - # # # # # m f&m-m *«* HOUSTON VISIT THIS WEEKEND The University’s oceanographic research ship, the R/V Saturday and from 1 to 5 p. m.

Carl Klein, assistant secretary of the interior for water quality and research, chairman of the advisory board, will conduct the hearing. Monday Klein took a helicop ter tour of the Houston Ship Channel and Galveston Bay, call ing the channel one of the worst polluted channels in the nation. While he was making that tour, the members of the advisory board visited the Beaumont-Port Arthur-Orange area. The board then flew to Corpus Christi for a boat trip up the Corpus Christi harbor to con- Dial 845-6311, Hear About Coming Events Students may learn of upcom ing campus events by daily dial ing 845-6311, according to Logan E. Weston, coordinator of religi ous life and general secretary of the YMCA. Telephone announcements re corded on a tape deck communi cations system in the YMCA of fice are prepared to relay any information of general interest to the student body, Weston said. Announcements will be taken from the University Calendar and offices of the Athletic Depart ment, Commandant, Director of Civilian Student Activities and Student Programs. Weston said that additional announcements may be made by calling the YMCA at 845-1626 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. the day before the event occurs. elude two days of fact-finding along the Southeast Texas Coast and inland waters. At Corpus Christi they learned about a contingency plan that city is developing to clean up any oil spill which may occur such as the one last summer off the beaches of Santa Barbara, Calif. The nine members said they were impressed with the clean water and docks in the Corpus Christi harbor which contrasted to Monday’s boat tour up the polluted Houston ship channel. Klein said Tuesday night that the Houston Ship Channel Indus tries have some safety measures to prevent gross pollution, but there are no failsafe measures. He pointed out that industry would have to bear the full brunt of any accidental spills. Also, because of the nature of the raw and refined products of the petrochemical industry, there is a built-in danger, he said. The assistant secretary said that if a state does the job, then the federal government has no complaint and added that a com bination of state and federal forces abating water pollution made a good team. “Let’s stop the studies and get the job done,” he said. Gordon Fulcher, chairman of the Texas Water Quality Board, told Klein that his board “can and will do the job down here.” Klein said his objective to abate water pollution was to hold the quality of the water where it is now and then enhance it. The advisory board’s visit is the first since the summer of 1967 when the board pointed out that the Houston Ship Channel was “grossly polluted.” In December Smith invited them back to the state to see what improvements have been made.
