Events will feature British music, dance and food and will bring British citizens in contact with Americans. Par ticipants will have a chance to talk informally about a wide range of topics, from World War II and the Great Depres sion to gardening and growing old. Among events scheduled for Duke will be demonstra tions of sports of British origin such as golf, soccer and cricket. Dramatic, dance and musical performances and eadings by prominent British authors will take place in the evenings. Also at Duke, a symposium of current issues in British- American relations will gather distinguished leaders from may fields.
